BREAKING: 36k people showed up in LA for Bernie and AOC’s rally. In the off year.

Americans are pissed — and anyone ignoring that is making a big mistake.

We understand 'deaf rage'. In fact, every disabled person spends far too much time raging at the avoidable barriers that make them a disabled person and not just a person.

Actually, the Senate Dems just lost three seats. And he just caved during the shutdown debate. And he hasn't pushed back against the litany of attacks on the federal government. If you call that winning, I'd hate to think what you call losing. It's clear that Schumer needs to step aside.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.

11,000 people showed up.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

Folks. It is vital that we spell out what DEI means. So when we are talking about it say Diversity Equity and Inclusion. Make them say that they don’t value diversity, equity, and inclusivity. Much harder to do away with that if you’ve said the actual words out loud! 💜💜💜
