Tough loss in TN but if you organized, volunteered, knocked doors, made calls, gave money, talked to your friends, voted Dem — maybe for the 1st time ever, don’t despair. Together, you and Aftyn Behn did something incredible to deliver single digit margin in a Trump 22 district. We see you! 💐

TN is wildly gerrymandered to benefit Republicans & Trump won by 22 points. That this is even a race we’re talking about is a credit to the organizers and volunteers and regular folks (Aftyn is all of those) in TN who’ve worked hard not just now, but for a LONG time to pave a pathway to compete.

Me and team NEWCO hit the phones today making over 350 calls for @aftynbehn.bsky.social Expanding the map starts tonight. Rooting for a win. Proud of Aftyn and all of the volunteers and organizers’ hard work - no matter what. Let’s go!

Shout out to my mom who had so much aluminum foil when she passed we’re still using it 11 years later. 🦃

Whew. We’re entering into next level talking points. Make the ads.

Maybe Senate Dems should read The Art of the Deal.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Not on purpose of course, but kinda a big night for DEI.

Thank you to all of the Democratic campaign organizers and volunteers who stayed laser focused on organizing — through everything this year. We see you! Let’s win!

Our team at Democracy Security Project is working hard today with #NoKings organizers around the country to support 2,500 safe, peaceful events. Check out our safety tips and guides here: democracysecurityproject.org/protest You have a right to make your voice heard and to protest. Stay safe!

I really like the energy Bernie & AOC are bringing to this @cnn.com townhall.

“family members identified the victim as Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all U.S. Marines” ktla.com/news/local-n...

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people: 1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money 3) We won’t need a lot of troops 4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq 5) We’ll find WMDs 6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators 7) It will be easy 8) It won’t take long All lies.

Donald Trump is dangerous and reckless. He is breaking the law and the Constitution. Congress must act swiftly.

Requiring candidates and elected officials to publicly disclose their home address is outdated and should be abolished for safety — today. It’s time to change the laws. Reach out to www.democracysecurityproject.org if you need help navigating this right now. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/15/u...

Share if you agree.

An embarrassed Trump is an extra dangerous Trump. Stay alert.

I am pleased to announce that I will join The Hague Talks, the flagship event of the Just Peace Festival, as a key speaker. On this day of peaceful political protests from millions across the U.S. and the targeted political assassinations in Minnesota, I am reflecting on “What is Just Peace?”

I started DSP last year because it’s become so dangerous to serve your country and community. The gunman planned this attack, impersonated a police officer, and is on the loose. We must condemn these violent political acts and murder of elected officials. Do not normalize political violence.

No truer words #booksky

I bet Elon just didn’t want to have to buy Trump a gift for his birthday.

None of the news is good, but appreciate BBC News having me on to get perspective on it. Trump tariffs will not lower costs for Americans and the taking of Mahmoud Khalil, a permanent, legal U.S. resident violates his legal rights and is chilling.

No Amazon. No Prime. No Whole Foods. You don’t have to call Congress or march in the streets to make a difference. Deliver a message through your wallet if you want.

How quickly Target caved to this regime.

Was this speech written by AI?

No one can believe that Trump will willingly vacate office in 2029.

The mainstream media isn’t showing all the Dems that walked out tonight.

It’s a bad speech.

Sleepy speech for someone burning down the government and destroying democracy over the past 43 days. Low energy.

This list is so long and taking up so much real estate in his speech it’s almost like they want to distract from their massive cuts to Medicaid

Lies.

I’m glad there are Dems boycotting the Joint Session of Congress. More of this please.

Collective action matters more than ever. If you can participate, please do.

Of course, it is a woman (Governor Janet Mills) telling Donald Trump no to his face.

One year ago today, DSP launched to help keep public and civil servants and advocates safe from threats, harassment, and violence. We won’t back down and we won’t retreat. Reach out for help today. democracysecurityproject.org

Welcome to the most DEI Super Bowl ever. 🏈 #Superbowl

Please take steps to protect yourself and your data today.

Maybe Musk could release Donald Trump’s taxes now that he’s stolen them?

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

USAID is just the first. This makes a lot of sense for them because it’s not well understood by most Americans and it’s a lifeline for so many countries globally that helps improve our standing and peace in the world.

The tariffs Trump is imposing against Canada are higher than those imposed against China.

Democrats blaming Democrats for what Republicans are allowing to happen, is the most Democratic thing ever. Republicans are in charge. They own ALL of this. Don’t let a day go by where we don’t remind Americans and allies who is in charge now.

Trump is treating the United States like one big game of The Apprentice. The only winners will be the billionaires.

It’s pretty insane that a private citizen can come in, hijack federal government servers, fire people, and steal their PII.

Congratulations to Democratic Chairman @kenmartin.bsky.social. Let’s speak up. Let’s get to work. Let’s win!

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

They will burn it down. But a phoenix rises from the ashes.

Look for the helpers. And be one when you can.

Old enough to remember when women weren’t allowed to wear pants in the U.S. Senate. Don’t recall when they couldn’t wear shirts.

We obviously now need a Melania hat emoji. Because it is a mood.
