My statement about the final results of the 2023 election. Thank you all so much for your support 💜

Boebert doesn’t need millions from AIPAC – she’s already a guaranteed ‘yes’ vote. She sold out Colorado for $20k. I’m not for sale. Join our grassroots fight.

BERNIE TO ZOHRAN: “My understanding is you won the primary, correct? — I find it hard to understand how major Dem leaders in New York are not supporting the Democratic candidate.” *HUGE ROARS* BERNIE: “So we have another fight on our hands— the future of the Democratic party.”

The better question is whether working people can exist in the city they built.

Billionaires pay the least amount of taxes of any American. In what world is this ok? Billionaires should pay more in taxes than teachers, truck drivers, and nurses. Not less.

Let’s remember the 170 public workers who gave everything—only to be discarded by a mayor from Vail who promised better.  Denver residents deserve transparency & accountability. And a mayor who doesn’t put their own ambition over the needs of Denverites struggling the most. 9/9

You can’t claim “shared sacrifice” while protecting police raises and gutting social services.  You can’t build trust with layoffs, backroom decisions, incompetent, unqualified, or unethical appointees, and PR spin. 8/

The data shows this isn’t just about homelessness or tax revenue — it’s about leadership. Johnston’s slick style is top-down, secretive, and corporate -driven.  Denverites deserve more opportunity and affordability—not more fast talking distractions. 7/

Johnston campaigned on bold promises to “solve homelessness” and “unify the city.” But today, Denver feels more divided, not less.  🔻City workers feel betrayed.  🔻Communities of color are underfunded.  🔻Public trust is low. 6/

Among working people, Johnston has a trust problem. When you lay off 170 workers, eliminate 667 positions—and still give police raises — they have a point.  They know that the budget crisis is a consequence of his disorganized leadership & political choices. It was avoidable. 5/

Mayor Johnston's lowest marks? 🔻 Fiscal responsibility 🔻 Housing Affordability 🔻 Jobs & Economy 🔻 Small Businesses  Unsurprisingly, renters and low wage workers are struggling the most, and feel less optimistic than wealthier property owning residents. 4/

Johnston’s highest marks among his supporters are for reducing visible homelessness — but voters are skeptical.  Even those who say he’s done a good job also question his transparency, priorities, and financial decisions. 3/

Johnston's unfavorables have increased since last year from 38% to 46%. His lowest marks: overspending, poor planning, layoffs, mishandling of migrants & *homelessness*— his signature issue.  That’s not a mandate. That’s a problem. 2/

Mike Johnston’s poll numbers are slipping — and they reveal cracks in his leadership and among his base. Here’s what “likely voters” = 70% white, homeowners, 35+ with college degrees who want more police think: 1/ 🧵

Denver couldn’t find the money to save 170 jobs—including crime prevention workers—but somehow there’s always money to give police raises. When Mayor Mike Johnston says “shared sacrifice,” he means everyone except the police union.

I'm excited to host a house party for CD 8 candidate and labor organizer @AmieBacaOehlert with distinguished progressive cohosts! Fighting for workers' rights will be at the top of our agenda✊🏾 RSVP here: https://t.co/ljgwuwOIlq

Got questions for DPD's Chief? Here's your chance: ❓Why no cuts to DPD's budget while civilian crime prevention jobs were cut? ❓ Why push a policy that weakens oversight? ❓ Why expand Flock cameras ICE has accessed? ❓ Does he support a new unqualified safety director?

Laid Off Denver City Workers interested in filing a Class Action DM me ASAP!

Denver deserves better. City workers aren't political steppingstones. They're parents.Caregivers. Community builders. Johnston didn’t “save” the budget. He shredded lives. Let’s hold him accountable for his lack of “skills & abilities” by ensuring he doesn't get a 2nd term. 8/8

This isn't just about 5 people. Johnston laid off 169 workers and cut 667 vacant positions—gutting social equity, climate action, children’s services, while police budgets remain untouched. It's about fiscal mismanagement & a lack of accountability. Johnston is not like us. 7/

Devin Mason, a city planner, worked on Vision Zero & East Colfax BRT Shocked to be laid off: “It’s just a betrayal...This process did not play out in a fair manner…It feels like layoffs were a 1st resort" He fears his colleagues now face burnout from unmanageable workloads. 6/
