I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

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).

Whoever runs The Carter Center socials & the photographer that captured this shot are national HEROES.

There is something so beautifully poetic about a narcissist being eclipsed by a statue of someone else 😭

Elon Musk, interjected: “Not officially.”

Netanyahu responded: “Not officially. OK, so you’re the unofficial president.”

Ironic that the same people who spent eight years falsely claiming that our government was being run by an immigrant from Africa now seem to have no problem with our government being run by an ACTUAL immigrant from Africa.

I’m so sad we are losing him. I would’ve voted for him if he was on a ventilator the rest of his term. IDGAF. What he did in four years is remarkable
An amazing human.

The one nonnegotiable thing for Donald Trump is election denialism. Every person who works for him must be an election denier, whether it is at DOJ, the FBI, in the White House or at the RNC.

The old consultant class has led us to the failures we saw in 2024.

Democrats need to diversify the vendors that we rely on for critical services, whether digital, communications, or fundraising.

It’s time for something new at the DNC.

This poor mom is dealing with her son who believes that 1990 was nearly 35 years ago.

Our education system is in tatters when kids don’t know how to do basic math.

1990 was 11 years ago.
