  The bottomline is that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will only work to serve working-class people in response to pressure from mass movements and people’s organizations. It’s our job to build those movements and organizations. Let’s go.

  The US Green Party is completely unserious about winning or building working-class political power and should not be encouraged by serious leftists. Don't @ me

  I live in Central Pennsylvania and nothing about this shirt confuses me in the least.

  The squad is doing its job. Our job is to make the squad at least ten times bigger. ASAP.

  If you appreciate Pennsylvania delivering Trump a historic defeat, please support the people-powered grassroots organizations that made a plan to win and have been working their asses off for four years to bring it home. Organizations (with links) in thread:

  Whoever is advising
  @JoeBiden
  : his digs on Bernie Sanders and the Green New Deal were 100% unnecessary and avoidable. No one is expecting him to champion these things. But don't add insult to injury, these are the folks who are still volunteering to drag Joe over the finish line.

  Five Guys cashier, seeing my button: “You like Bernie?” Me: “I do! Do you?” Them: “Hell yes, I do. I’m 100% voting for him. My friends keep telling me ‘it’s rigged’. But I tell them if we all vote, they can’t stop us.”#BigUs #Bernie2020

  Holy shit, have you ever looked at West Virginia voting numbers for 2016?! 242,539 people voted in the Democratic PRIMARY 188,794 people voted Democratic in the GENERAL Read that again. But we should keep nominating crappy corporate centrist candidates because RED STATES!!!
