I cannot convey enough how grateful I am to the millions of you all supporting us with your time, resources, and energy.

Your support has allowed us to rally people together at record scale to organize their communities.

All with an average donation of $21.

THANK YOU & Pa’lante 🙏🏽♥️
News: AOC had her strongest ever quarter, raising over $9.5m from 266k individual donors for an average of just $21.

AOC doesn’t take a dollar from lobbyists or corporate PACS. Our top donor professions are teachers and nurses. 64% were first time contributors.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

Update: The House just passed the Republican voter suppression measure that threatens voting access for millions of Americans, including 69 million women whose married names don't match their birth certificates.

Make sure your senators know you expect them to stand against it.
Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married?

Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote.

West Coast numbers are coming in, and estimates have now surpassed 5 million. People are still pouring into the streets—nearly 2% of the American population is rising up. America, we are so proud of you. You did it.

This is despicable. Barber, Gay Barber, Person, whatever. This is antithetical not just to everything America stands for but to basic human rights that are universally acknowledge by different countries and people all over the world.
WATTERS: You've been talking about this gay barber from El Salvador with some stupid tattoo for weeks. Weeks, Jessica. It's just a gay barber.

Every accusation from these fascists is a confession.
Not surprising but absolutely wild to go on stage and blame bad things on a nefarious billionaire who is pulling on the puppet strings of politics while you are the richest man in the world who is on stage because he's spending millions trying to influence an election!

On this day in 1911,146 workers died in the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire.

The bosses responsible were never held accountable for the awful working conditions that sparked the blaze.

Remember this today as politicians and their corporate backers attack workplace safety.

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).

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

DOGE plans to fire 430 workers at the IRS Taxpayer Advocate Service — which helps low-income and small business filers.

Meanwhile, its wider agency layoffs will make it even easier for the rich to get away with skirting what they owe.

See what DOGE is really about?

Millions of seniors who rely on Social Security as a lifeline could see their benefits disrupted once DOGE cuts crucial phone services.

Why the cuts?

To address fraud that amounts to less than 0.00625% of what the government sends out in benefits each year.

The US invasion of Iraq began on this day 22 years ago.

In the years since, the United States spent roughly $10 trillion on the so-called "war on terror."

Can you imagine if we had instead invested those funds in climate, health care, housing, and education?

Two days ago Donald Trump called Chuck Schumer a Palestinian, as a slur. A year ago, Donald Trump called Chuck Schumer, a Jewish man, a "proud member of Hamas."

If we believe what the president says, he just congratulated a Palestinian member of Hamas for siding with him. Free Mahmoud Khalil.
