Bernie Sanders, AOC, and Greg Casar on stage in Tucson in front a crowd of 23,000 people.
Tucson, Arizona today.
Original projected attendance was 3,000 people.
23,000 showed up.
AOC and Bernie in front of the rally crowd in Denver
Zoomed out crowd shot of 34,000 people in downtown Denver with Colorado mountains in the background
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).

Two utterly gorgeous siamese cats and an Italian greyhound snuggled together on a bed with a glorious dusk sky in the windows behind them.

Canadian here. Can we just promise not to flinch or get outraged at Trump's idiotic choices? He's picking the utter worst humans in order to stir our outrage and cloak his own inadequacies. Let's not feed him with our precious energy.
Willow the Italian Greyhound in striped jammies on a bed with a beautiful view behind her.
First Bluesky post. Please meet Willow. She will help keep us sane.
