Nope. It's a distraction. Celebrity appearances and concerts didn't save the Harris campaign. Bernie and AOC don't need help attracting crowds. Their policies must (and do) speak for themsleves.
We have the opportunity to flip 2 House seats Blue on April 1st. Florida Districts 1 and 6 Special Election. AOC & Bernie please stop by: the weather in St. Augustine is much nicer than Vermont & NY this time of year! #Voteblue
They don’t support Democrats, though. That’s why they popular with a certain cohort of voters, and also why I despise them. They selling opposition without meaningful collective action.
What the hell are you talking about? They are explicitly calling for a Democratic Party to show strength and opposition. Or do you want more like Schumer and Fetterman to pass every Republican agenda in the congress? Why don’t you just go join the Republican Party if you want fasicst/oligarch rule.
We can't afford to rely on the judicial branch alone to keep this administration in it's lane - it would REALLY help if the legislative were willing and able to push back. @aoc.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov
There is no “moment.” This is all just a show. If you’re not convincing these rally-goers that the only way out of this mess is to support and vote for Democrats, you’re causing more harm than good.
Please don’t be a thief of hope. Hope is a precious commodity when fighting rising authoritarianism. The regime would like nothing more than to see hope destroyed. Please don’t aid them in this pursuit.
Yes but, these crowds are to fight fascism. Important to note they’re not for presidential candidates in an election year. Hopefully will get all the Schumers off their hands or to step aside.
These events need to happen in all red districts with moderate Dems leading the charge and we need video interviews of Republicans at these event to prove these are not just liberal rallies

I see all these people looking for answers,just like when Andrew Como was our lifeline during Covid,we were desperate,and he tried to calm us..funny how he had to step down,while 1/2 the cabinet are rapist as well as the felon leader…why do dems always bend the knee,Rep.get elected for worse crimes
I used to think we were on the side of compassion.
Now I’m not so sure we haven’t traded light for flame.
And I’m done pretending that holy rage and hellfire look the same.
I have not been a Democrat for years. But I am not going to pretend that the Democrats would be pulling the undermining of basic Democracy like the GOP is. That we need a younger, more relevant version of the Democrats is not in question. But the GOP seeks authoritarianism.
When I saw this meme I started to question everything! When you get time, I ask for you to sit down & make a list of pros & cons of both parties. Approach it without the blind loyalty, I’ve had my whole life. Just facts, no emotion. I’m not even done with my list but I definitely dead center now :(.
I’ve been a Democrat my whole life.
Marched. Voted blue. Believed the cause.
But when I heard AOC say, “we need to breathe fire,” something hit different.
Ok we had all this though when kamala and @governorwalz.mn.gov were campaigning..
Then what happened?
Elon fixed the votes to make fat ass a winner and we lost- can someone please look into the election? We know he didn't win
I don't care if they show up to cosplay their concern. They should have shown up at the ballot box. All the righteous raves in the world don't matter if you don't VOTE.
Where is the legacy media coverage your barnstorming tour with Bernie?
Or Ro Khanna in Bakersfield? Or Tim Walz doing town halls in red districts?
The owners are in league with the oligarchs and have no interest in preserving the republic.
Please stop talking about your crowd size and start working on solutions? Is anyone in the DNC funding these important down ballot races? Is anyone paying attention to how important it is that we gain back the house/senate to stop the destruction of democracy?
Unify!!! If we divide and people vote 3rd party (height of privilege) we enable treasonous trump and seditious republicans. They will keep winning because they are unified.
It's great and I'm really glad to see it.. kamala had the same size of crowds at rallies... She basically was saying the same things. we have no problem drawing a crowd ...how do we get these people to vote? Not a crowd problem we have.. it's a people actually voting.
Kamala had these crowds during a presidential election. It's not just the people; it's the message. Harris/Waltz hewed too close to center. I think we're all understanding better and better that what we need is real change, and not the kind that seizes power only to rob and pillage the country.
What is the next step? You can't rally until 2026, it will run out of steam. Once enough momentum has been gained, what is the next action, this energy must go somewhere or it will die.
I stand with @aoc.bsky.social.
The fascists tried mightily to demonize this intelligent, proactive dynamo of a Congressperson because they know she's the real deal.
AOC is a leader.
The point is, all #Democrats do not have to agree. The Democrats have to be #unified. #Republicans will vote for anyone Republican. That's what the Democrats have to do. #RogerRabbit 🐰would be better than a continuation of what is happening. 😔🗳
Yes, our democracy is at risk. tRump and minions are doing everything possible to turn our democracy into an authoritarian dictatorship. We must stop 🛑 them from destroying our republic.
Has anybody else seen the guy on X who constantly (and pathetically) tries to deboonk the huge crowds Dems are managing at events with cell phone data? Supposedly the majority of ppl attending are "paid to be there" and all come from like, 2 or 3 states out West. And they say WE'RE the crazy ones...
Within the system not much really can't be done except waiting for 2026, hoping the democratic system stays intact and fair so voting matters. It truly looks like all GOP politicians are betting on democracy being a gone thing (so Trump over voters) so we will see.
Don't let the Establishment Democrats anywhere near the movement. They will sabotage it. They have much more in common with the Billionaire Sycophant's than Working class Democrats.
This excitement is great- however we need to find a way to bring all (or at least most) Democrats into the fold. Let’s make this movement contagious!!!! 💙💙
I thought @schumer.senate.gov said we have to wait for his poll numbers to drop then we’d really pounce on that opportunity? Step down now and let someone who understands the weight of the moment lead!
Not just defend…but to create an ACTUAL democracy. To enact the changes we know are necessary and some that exist for no other reason than it’s fkn cool…that it’s “American”
The BIGGLIEST crowds. Bigger than ANYONE else's numbers!! And they didn't have to pay ANYONE and ACTUALLY paid for the venue instead of stiffing working people.
The two sides are not the same. The other side turned an ancient orange blob into a swole prizefighter and placed the pictures on NFT trading cards to sell for profit. Not the same.
Make this woman the leader of the Democrat party. Polling shows her version of leadership is what the Party wants and needs. The Old guard is obsolete.
Now go into red districts and fill in the gaps left by fleeing MAGA politicians... you know, like you guys said you would. Sure it's "funner" to be applauded by sure bet voters but isn't the point to create blue votes in the void?

step TWO: get the votes
you're already well on your way in step two, but it means NOTHING without step one; you know this, you saw kamala had the votes too
YOU are our hero, AOC!

It consumes.
It’s not justice—it’s judgment.
And I remember—it’s God’s Two Witnesses who breathe fire…
Not politicians. Not movements. Not rage.
Marched. Voted blue. Believed the cause.

✊🏻 Hope.
✊🏾 Solidarity.

Cat Dad needs help from eviction
When they get to 20m people give me a call, otherwise it’s just a drop in the bucket
AOC and Bernie should be in FL getting Dem seats in the special elections.
BOTH #EasterSunday AND #HitlersBirthday in 2025...
Read the #MSM article linked below as to how critical this date has become for 🇺🇸.

Here's a list of oldest congress people. 8 out of 10 are Democrats. They are never going to lead or participate in any resistance
https://www.oldest.org/politics/members-us-congress/
As in Putin's Russia, elections will now be merely performative affirmations of dear leader.
Sanders & Ocasio-Cortez are working to establish a nascent resistance movement.
Solidarity ✊🏻
The fascists tried mightily to demonize this intelligent, proactive dynamo of a Congressperson because they know she's the real deal.
AOC is a leader.
Here’s my reason why:
https://poetryforthismoment.tiiny.site/Not-to-Small-Men-E-Aunapuu.png
Elon and Trump cannot stop us.
There are special elections and Lutnick is saying social security checks are no big deal. FL is nearly 20% retirement age.
Rallies are just ego boosts if they don’t get Dem congressional seats.
Many folks don’t know the true meaning of the word. Please define!!
I hope they got people signed up to a list to help organize people locally too.
Democrats need to fix the elections or momentum is futile.
Be counted
#Resist
