@fatimaizubair @Tim_Walz @AndyBeshearKY Yes! I would love to see either of these exceptional, proven leaders on the ticket. Slight bias for my home state of MN… 💕

Nearly 50 progressive leaders across the nation agree that we need a VP pick that will invigorate the base and build on our momentum. @Tim_Walz @AndyBeshearKY

Breaking! Letter to Harris campaign re VP selection, from a national coalition of Progressive Democrats. We "simply cannot afford to make a mistake in this crucial decision."

✅Beshear
❌Shapiro

Build on momentum to defeat Trump and Project 2025!

Replace Biden as nominee:

64% all voters
55% Black voters
66% Hispanic voters
48% Biden (!) voters

Biden is too old to be an effective president:

69% all voters
62% Black voters
68% Hispanic voters
55% Biden voters

This is from the NYT PRE-debate poll, Trump 48-Biden 42, which was taken:

- After weeks of wall-to-wall coverage of Trump's criminal conviction

- Months after Biden campaigned intensely and spend tens of millions on swing state ads

- At a time when 80% of voters said they were paying attention to the race

Almost every other pre-debate poll found similar results.

This is not an elite thing. This is not a media thing. This is not a one-bad-debate-freakout thing.

The voters have been voicing these concerns for months now. Denying them or dismissing them is not the way to overcome them.

This story ⤵️ has the best graphical explainer of Prop. 13 I've ever seen. Big props to Nami & John!

Good Lord! We are seriously messed up here in North America. This is even WORSE than I thought it would be.

@nhannahjones @JeromePandell 💯 Also, every time we criticize young people…uh, who raised these young people??? Who created their schools and educational curriculum (or lack thereof)??? Who failed to create a lasting peace after intervening and destabilizing the region with their foreign policy? Smh…

I want my tax dollars to go to make sure everyone in my community has healthcare, housing, and food.

I do not want my tax dollars being spent on slaughtering people.

This is not a radical idea.

NEW: After 220 days, Ariana Grande has joined the call for a #CeasefireNOW.

After facing backlash for her silence, the singer added her name to the Artists for Ceasefire letter over the weekend.

@thesewingqueen @simon94582 My daughter and I were at a restaurant that got evacuated. We weren’t told anything except to leave and go across the street. This was two hours ago. Someone said something about someone barricaded in a car. We left the area for a while to be safe, not sure of current status.

I won my very first election—becoming my school’s first Black girl cheerleader—right here at San Fernando High!

It was only fitting to visit a place that is so meaningful to me ahead of another big Election Day.

President George W. Bush and I disagreed on virtually everything.

But when millions across the US and around the world were dying from HIV/AIDS, I convinced him to make global investments in treatment and prevention.

I will work with anyone who is willing to do what’s right.

[Congresswoman Cori Bush (Archived) @RepCori]

This shift in rhetoric is proof that our pro-peace movement is working.

While I'm glad the administration is finally calling for a ceasefire, we need a LASTING ceasefire NOT a 6-week pause.

@POTUS must facilitate an immediate, lasting #CeasefireNow & stop funding war crimes.

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

.@BarbaraLeeForCA is the OG progressive champion.

As the sole candidate in the California primary to sign on to our #CeasefireNow resolution calling to end the violence in Gaza, her leadership, courage & conviction is needed in the Senate.

California, vote Barbara Lee today!
