This vote for DNC chair will reverberate for years—and even decades—to come.

To turn the tide against MAGA extremism, we need to out-organize, out-communicate, and out-fundraise the GOP. And it has to start right now.

Just received the endorsement of @machinistsunion.bsky.social, the *eighth* union to support our campaign.

Immensely proud of the pro-worker, pro-labor coalition we've built in this race for DNC chair.

Liz Cheney just DESTROYED Donald Trump over his attempts to block Jack Smith and the DOJ from releasing their final report on the investigations into him. She’s absolutely right—the people deserve to see the evidence!!

And Mike Johnson’s first vote for Speaker fails. Even with a supposed “mandate” the Republican party can’t govern.

This is why you don’t put children in charge.
