Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Canadian here. Can we just promise not to flinch or get outraged at Trump's idiotic choices? He's picking the utter worst humans in order to stir our outrage and cloak his own inadequacies. Let's not feed him with our precious energy.

First Bluesky post. Please meet Willow. She will help keep us sane.
