Awesome job Idaho! And this to do list is a relief to see. I am never sure if I am doing enough and really appreciate ideas and suggestions.
Truly incredible! Over 12,000 for Bernie and AOC in Idaho 🥹🤗

HUGE turnout for AOC & Bernie in Salt Lake City. Here’s the views inside the arena & the 5000 people outside in the overflow.

Utah is turning out 👏

Well 20000 showed up to support AOC and Bernie in a red state! We couldn’t get in but loved seeing all the ages.
The next thing here will be the 5050 1 protest at the Capital on Saturday the 19th.

We are waiting to get in to a place that holds 15,000. AOC and Bernie are worth the try and the crowd has all ages. Way to represent Salt Lake!!

Tomorrow is going to be so uplifting!
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.

Great script to follow:
Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act.

Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.
Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too?
Staffer: No
Me: See the problem?

I called for an independent investigation into Donald Trump's dismantling of the Department of Education, and now, it's happening.

This investigation will reveal what's at stake for families.

While Trump and Musk side with billionaires, I'll side with our kids.
Drastic staffing cuts at the Education Department to be reviewed
The department’s inspector general’s office is investigating after Democratic senators asked for a probe of the Trump administration’s actions.
