radical empathy l days past: @KamalaHQ, @BidenHQ, @thedemocrats, @joebiden, @PeteButtigieg, @leadingchangent, @marshallganz l forever @cavs

[Roohi Rustum @roohi_rustum]

I grew up in community organizing, which means you can’t just turn away from your neighbor or city official— you have to find a way to get through the mess.

When I wanted empathy to win, I helped candidates and schools run campaigns they won. Empathy wins races and builds power.

@clevelanddotcom highlighted how I've been building community since 2024, and on this day, it's never been more important to remember that America has not a single king, and we are bravest, strongest, most powerful when together:

Can confirm this happens here, it happened more to me after 2016, and it makes my stomach curl to think 2025 is just around the corner.

Also, everyone watch Fellow Travellers and get this man all the awards.

In the beginning of the year, Jonathan Bailey opened up about a homophobic assault he suffered in October 2023, may this be a reminder for people to stop speculating on an openly gay man's sexuality.

Prof Gergen is the consummate public servant- and so many of us at @HarvardCPL were so lucky to learn and grow from his quiet leadership, courage, and service. My heart broke reading this.

Sending him, Anne, and their family wishes and love for a peaceful 2024 holiday.

[The Boston Globe @BostonGlobe]

From @GlobeOpinion: “Watching the wrecking ball of Lewy body dementia careen into the fortress of my father’s mind has been devastating,” writes Katherine Gergen Barnett about her father, David Gergen.

“I wanted to share his waning reflections.” https://t.co/rMlRVQ6oW9

[Roohi Rustum @roohi_rustum]

@JoseNunezIV + @AnatoleJenkins + Brandon are absolute stars in the party, joys at a party, and wonderful human beings and leaders.

Can confirm they will bring your campaigns to the next level, and do so the RIGHT way, with lasting infrastructure and impact— work with them!

[Contrast Campaigns @ContrastCamp]

We want to provide Democrats w/ a new roadmap to build winning organizing campaigns. And we want that roadmap to be accessible to as many campaigns and organizations as possible. 🧵

[Matt Corridoni @mattcorridoni]

No matter what the job, few people have understood the human impact of what they’re doing quite like @PeteButtigieg.

It might be hard for some DC insiders to understand - but - what makes moments like this special are that they’re genuine:

If you’re in or near PA it’s time to have @Bob_Casey’s back.

There are few things more rewarding than helping a voter make sure their vote is counted.

Chin up, team. Take some time. Take care of yourself. Take care of your loved ones. Take care of your community.

There are a million ways to make a difference—get back in the fight when you’re ready.

And know that, whenever you are ready, I’ll be ready to get back in with you.

[Dave Wasserman @Redistrict]

Latest numbers: across the seven battleground states, the '20-'24 swing towards Trump was ~3.1 pts. Across the other 43 states (+DC), it was ~6.7 pts.

Bottom line: the Harris campaign swam impressively against some very strong underlying currents.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]
