When you look at this crowd AOC is drawing today, here’s the part you should remember. This is Greeley, Colorado where GOP Congressman Gabe Evans refuses to hold a town hall. They should all be counting their days in office.

Tonight an unbelievable 34,000 people gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back. This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008. Also bigger than the 2024 DNC. And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).
