AOC and Bernie in front of the rally crowd in Denver

Zoomed out crowd shot of 34,000 people in downtown Denver with Colorado mountains in the background

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).

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN.

☎️: (202) 224-3121

Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.

The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.

Call retiring Senators too!

The ability to control mass party opinion this directly is unlike anything I’ve really seen in my time covering politics.

Love to you and Bert. Astro isn’t a huge fan of our van trips but I know he’d prefer being with us to not! 🥰

Exposure therapy❤️‍🩹✨

Thank you - but I’m sorry you get it. 😭 Here’s to Bert & Astro. 💕

He turns 14 in July - it took me 5 hours to edit this bc I couldn’t stop crying (it’s fine I’m fine) #rescuedog #seniordog #grandcanyon #travato

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

This sounds like a lack of effort imo. I think it can be both. 🤣

This is why you fight these cowards.

The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.

He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

The squirrels have their own food but some just like to pretend they’re birds I guess (I also think it helps them avoid the other squirrels) - yes this is what I spend my time thinking about 🥹🥰

Elon has agreed to pay approximately $10 million to settle a lawsuit brought by President Trump over the 2021 suspension of his account on the social media platform.

quote by Matthew@CrowsFault: People speak of hope as if it is this delicate, ephemeral thing made of whispers and spider's webs. It's not. Hope has dirt on her face, blood on her knuckles, the grit of the cobblestones in her hair, and just spat out a tooth as she rises for another go.

RFK has been confirmed as secretary of HHS. For those of you who contacted your senators on this issue, please know your efforts were NOT in vain. You give us hope and courage for the fight.

Education Department employees on probation were abruptly dismissed without cause across the department this morning. Staff have been warned that more layoffs are coming.

Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, the Senate Minority Leader, has launched a new online portal for individuals to report corruption, abuses of power, and threats to public safety, with the legal protections afforded to whistleblowers.

Dems have no choice, if we want to enact meaningful change, we're going to need 30+ more House seats and 60 senators. That's only going to happen if we win local races and do good work at the local level in red states. Depending on battlegrounds is often good enough for the WH, but not good enough.

Vance posted on X: “Judges aren’t allowed to control the executive’s legitimate power.” You mean Trump’s “power” being used to violate our Constitution? The Constitution is not something any president can manipulate for political games.

CBS News poll — Trump has positive approval amid "energetic" opening weeks; seen as doing what he promised Trump's deportation plans are popular, but Americans say there's not enough focus on lowering prices.

this poll says to me that a lot of americans just think everything is a TV show with zero consequence www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-a...

I see you 🫶🏻 #taylorswift #tetons #travel #nationalparks

I believe the Hamilton quote goes something like this: “Our poorest citizens, our farmers, live ration to ration, while Wall Street (Musk) robs ’em blind in search of chips to cash in.”

We want to take a moment to express how proud we are of you, America. You have stood up and spoken out every step of the way—especially when Congress and the media remained silent. When we called for help, you answered.

Wyoming-sanctioned grizzly hunting bill fails to overcome concerns about Endangered Species Act violations - WyoFile Another grizzly bear-related proposal, which would have hamstrung the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s ability to manage the species, also goes nowhere.

Evanston Rep. Bob Wharff's "bear coupon" bill — which authorized grizzly hunting, regardless of federal protections — has died.

Another grizzly-related proposal, which would have hamstrung the Wyoming Game and Fish Department's ability to manage the species, also failed in the Legislature.

Wyoming Senate demands Congress hand over federal land, including Grand Teton - WyoFile After first vote fails, Sen. Driskill calls for reconsideration, an excused senator reappears and the measure passes 16-15.

The Wyoming Senate voted 16-15 Thursday for a resolution demanding that Congress turn over some 30 million federal acres to the state.

The "equal footing" resolution insisted that land owned by all Americans, including Grand Teton National Park, be surrendered.

A good reminder
