We need to organize all year roundβ€”not just in election yearsβ€”and make sure we reach out to every single voter.

Paramount has joined Disney in paying bribes to Donald Trump, the Washington Post killed its Harris endorsement, Fox News functions as Republican state media, and the X algorithm amplifies fascist content. Here's why the media has a liberal bias problem.

Say what you will about Trump threatening to strip citizenship from his critics and have immigrants put into concentration camps in a swamp, but he never did anything truly power-mad like forgive student loans.

Exactly. We just spent months debating whether we should ensure #DNC neutrality or allow DNC Officers to endorse in primaries & make this problem even worse, not better.

@kenmartin.bsky.social has shown leadership in advocating for DNC neutrality. Because under Ken Martin's DNC, we trust the voters

This congresswoman co-chairs the House Pro-Life Caucus. She was an ardent supporter of Florida’s year-old abortion ban. Now that she’s been negative affected by that ban, she’s identified whose fault that was: abortion supporters.

Earlier today @shasti.bsky.social was elected #DNC Vice Chair with a vote of 225 (55.7%) to 177 (43.8%) for Kalyn Free.

This win confirmed that @democrats.org want positive campaigns with a clear vision for our futureβ€”and ensures that at least one of our elected officers is #AAPI.

Congrats Shasti!

You can't say that you want the DNC to be neutral in primaries, prioritize grassroots over institutions, prioritize state parties, and move away from big donors, and then attack Ken Martin for demanding neutrality, putting grassroots members on rules, and not chasing big checks.

On the "any gender" ballot for DNC Vice Chair, Shasti Conrad received 176.5 votes (43%), Kalyn Free received 148 votes (36%), and Jeanna Repass received 80 votes (19%).

With a majority required to win, we move to a final ballot.

On this ballot, I again vote for @shasti.bsky.social.

Results will be known Tuesday afternoon.

Trump’s go-to line about every foreign policy crisis and war - from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, to October 7th, to the Israel’s devastation of Gaza - was β€œIt would never have happened if I was president.”

With David Hogg dropping out of the #DNC Voice Chair race yesterday, there's only one candidate for the male Vice Chair position. I'm proud to vote for Malcolm Kenyatta.

The #DNC has approved the Credentials Committee report by a vote of 294 votes in favor (75%) to 99 votes against (25%), vacating the seats of Malcolm Kenyatta & David Hogg.

The DNC will administer separate ballots for the final two Vice Chair positions. Voting opens tomorrow for Kenyatta vs Hogg.

πŸ“£ 100+ town halls in GOP turf β€” with House & Senate Dems leading the charge.

βœ… Special election wins β€” From NE to SC, we’re winning and overperforming.

But somehow folks stay obsessed with drama in safe blue primaries and miss the actual work being done.

We don’t have time for the foolishness.

This is a ridiculous distraction.

In a short period Ken Martin has made tremendous progress to build the DNC infrastructure to beat MAGA in β€˜25 & β€˜26:

In line with my actions on the #DNC Credentials Committee, I voted against the resolution that would vacate the seats of Malcolm Kenyatta and David Hogg.

I also voted in favor of the election rules, should the resolution pass and we hold new elections for their two Vice Chair seats.

It was great to see so many friends at today's rally in downtown #LosAngeles to protest #ICE raids and Trump's attacks on our neighbors & our values.

But it was even better to hear afterwards that #SEIU California President #DavidHuerta was released from his wrongful detention.

David Huerta, the president of SEIU California, was just injured and detained by ICE for exercising his First Amendment rights.

Can't believe Joni Ernst needs this explained to her, but here goes:

It is immoral and un-Christian to do nothing to prevent people from dying.

Seems obvious, but unfortunately the GOP is hellbent on putting their own constituents at risk.
