Happening now: several hundred people are pouring into Chicago's downtown Federal Plaza.
It's 25 degrees outside.
Organizers are leading the crowd in a chant of, "no boots on the ground, no bombs in the air!"
Two protesters hold a large banner reading, "no war for Venezuela oil."

Anyone defending execution as a reasonable punishment for drug smuggling is a Nazi. Pass it on.

We just want to say—we’re sorry. We know how emotionally exhausting all of this is, and we truly understand. But you’re not alone. We’re in this together.

“ICE has reportedly shut down its deportation hotline again because so many people are calling to report Pete Hegseth for having gang-related tattoos and a Russian email address.
I know why Hegseth has White Nationalist tattoos, but why is he using a Russian email service?”

Netanyahu has not allowed any aid into Gaza in 22 days. He broke the ceasefire, resuming a bombing campaign that has killed more than 50,000 people. Now he is threatening a long-term occupation of Gaza.
NO MORE MILITARY AID TO NETANYAHU’S WAR MACHINE.

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).

I appreciate that Sanders led a rally of 10K in WI to help protect the WI Supreme Court.
But y'all, can we stop relying on one Octogenarian to save democracy? We have so many dynamic young speakers that are extremely popular. Why Dems aren't showcasing them front and center nationwide is beyond me.
