UPDATE: I came prepared!
DEBRA MESSing was supposed to be here til 8pm, but they announced she was leaving at 4 after I did this and then exclaimed
#FreePalestine
as she shuffled away 😂😂😂😂
Exactly 1 year ago today, Bernie Sanders had heart attack-What we’re witnessing is more kindness, empathy, + prayers for Trump from Dems than Bernie was ever given-By leaps + bounds + Bernie wasn’t accused of creating a pandemic of heart attacks-Wake up-They hate us more than R’s
I’ve now been volunteering in Iowa for 30 days. During that time, I’ve met people from:
-Ireland
-UK
-South Africa
-New Zealand
-Germany
Each of them travelled to Iowa, solely to campaign for Bernie. Our movement has no borders; it is global.
Too beautiful for words.
Oh my fucking gods- I got the job!!!!! I’m in tears- I can’t believe I finally found someone willing to give me a chance!
I told him about my blindness + he said another employee had it too + they have a deaf cashier! I would be working in the back room processing shipments 1/
Sorry to let you guys down, but I don’t feel so “Savage”. I feel defeated. Hurt. Exhausted. After being homesick for 5 weeks, I fly home tomorrow, yet feel there’s unfinished business I’m leaving in Iowa. I’m fucking done.
My 80y.o. Fox News watching Dad: “ You know, Biden didn’t give your guy any position, even after he went around doing shows for him during the virus. That’s rotten”
Today I met with Senator
@KamalaHarris
of California. We discussed the potential for deepening cooperation in water management, agriculture, cyber security, and more. I expressed my deep appreciation for America's commitment to Israel's security. 🇮🇱🇺🇸
Hold the f’ up!

just said “me and Amy are the only ones on this stage who aren’t billionaires or don’t take money from PACS”
Excuse me?!?!?!
Oh, hell to the no🤬
*Iowa Bernie Town Hall*
ME: Hi Bernie! Our entire row is from Pa, + I’m staying for 5 weeks to volunteer + canvass for you.
BERNIE: (eyes widen and mouth drops) That’s great! Thank you so much! Much appreciated!
ME: You are our

I would like to point out that
@ewarren
ran her campaign saying she supported Medicare for All and is now taking the opportunity to praise the candidate who continues to state that he is opposed to it; During a fucking pandemic.
Since ppl are posting about Netanyahu: Just a reminder that there’s ONE candidate who has called him a “racist”, ONE candidate who declined his $, ONE candidate who declined an invitation to meet him + held a Town Hall on Palestine, instead.
#Bernie2020
I am fucking shaking. Be careful what you wish for; I finally got my Joe Biden call:
HIM: Hello is this Joy?
ME: Yes?
HIM: Hello Ms. Joy. My name is Caesar and I’m calling from the Democratic National committee. We are calling to ask if you will donate $20.20 to elect Joe 1/
How many times does Biden have to stick his shaming finger in a young woman’s face and speak belittling to her, before people finally start calling him sexist? Gross.
I love my Berner family, but to keep it real, some of ya’ll did nothing but post on social media for our campaign so don’t tell me how I’m “allowed” to feel right now! I gave my entire fucking life to this campaign. It’s totally different for those of us who invested so much 1/
Why go off on Dems more than Repubs? Repubs owe me nothing. I’ve never voted for one. I’ve never supported one. I’ve never given my money to one. I’ve voted straight-Dem for 2 decades. They’ve disregarded my beliefs. They’ve disregarded my policies. They’ve dismissed me as 1/
THREAD: Liz + Pete enjoyed mocking our *revolution* last night, but let’s make it clear: They wish you had one.
No other candidate:
-Has over 1 million volunteers.
-Has made 10 million phone calls.
-Knocked on over half a million doors, in Iowa alone.
-Has ppl going across 1/
AOC’s what happens when you take 1st term rep + make them into a celebrity-Not change-maker; a pop icon-When you put them on cover of Vogue-When you praise incessant tweets of “owning” ppl instead of policy-As a whole, it’s always been more Yass Kween from ppl than accountability
The same damn people who said “I won’t vote for Bernie because his supporters make mean tweets” are now saying “it’s ridiculous to not support someone because of ‘mean tweets”.

#RejectTanden
Something I cannot comprehend, is how lying about a list of African American endorsements + using a stock photo, isn’t enough to sink a campaign.
He hasn’t even had to answer for it-They had a debate the day after + it wasn’t even mentioned-Can you even fathom if it were Bernie?

Thread: Back after a 24 hour suspension for a post telling Iowa ppl to double-check their caucus locations-They said it was “targeted harassment“- No cursing. No name-calling. No insults. No persons’ name.-Literally, just a heads-up that some caucus locations, being changed /1
THREAD: As some of you know, I just went to a mockus (mock-caucus) in Lancaster, PA (Pa votes at the polls, but this was the first step of an endorsement process for an organization-Bernie won w/ 63.8% of the vote). Anyway, I was made captain of the Bernie section + I went to 1/

I owe a yuge thank you to
@ninaturner
and
@RoKhanna
for helping to make this happen! I’m honored to have a chance to make my dream a reality.
Going back to Independent. Furthermore, you really need to work on your delivery because ou haven’t convinced me of a damn thing. Take me off your list, once and for all! I’ve been done with your corrupt asses for 4 years.
LIZ: On day 1, I will re-open an investigation into Trump.
BERNIE: On day 1, I will pass an executive order to legalize marijuana, and pass an executive order to reinstate DACA for hundreds of thousands of POC facing deportation.
1 yr ago today, I went from PA to Iowa for 5 wks to campaign for Bernie-I met
@RashidaTlaib
there+ as I told her about recently becoming unexpectedly disabled, she cried w/ me-She held my hands+ embraced me-She promised as activist to fight for ppl like me-Rashida, you’ve truly💔
Need we remind “never Bernie” crowd, Bernie has NOT said 1 negative word about the other 19 candidates, even when asked ?’s about them? But ppl like
@PeteButtigieg
hold meetings about B + compares him to trump in his speeches? Don’t come crying to us when we don’t vote for him.
I left my home, in Pennsylvania to volunteer in Iowa for 5 weeks. We are utterly exhausted, but we know the importance of what we’re doing. We have 9 days until caucus + yes, the polls are looking good, but there is no “sure thing”. We need phone-bankers/texters/etc. Thank you.
There are no pics of Bernie w/ Jeffrey Epstein (like Mike)
There are no pics of Bernie w/ Trump (let alone decades worth, like Mike)
There are no pics of Bernie w/ Harvey Weinstein (like Mike)
There are no pics of Bernie w/ criminal Netanyahu (like Mike, Joe, Liz)
Just sayin’.
It’s kinda amazing that Neera was defeated and Brooklyn Dad was exposed to be the DNC op we knew he was, all within days of each other.
Resisting the resistance™️
Dear
@NewHavenPD
Yale's student pro Palestinian student group is endorsing and encouraging acts of murderous violence. That is a danger to me and my community.
It's time law enforcement crack down on this behavior.
Today, it really hit me that I’m leaving my family + my home in Pennsylvania, to volunteer in Iowa for 5 weeks-It’s gonna be difficult AF in a # of ways, but there’s not much I wouldn’t do for our movement-Thank you,
@BernieSanders
for planting the seed which forever changed me🔥
NEWS:
@AOC
plans to endorse
@berniesanders
and appear with him at a rally in Queens, NY, on Saturday.
Huge moment in the 2020 race.

:
When I hear “I like both Liz + Bernie, but I’m going w/ Liz b/c I want a woman”, what I hear is: I’m ok w/ millions of women still having med debt, I’m ok w/ millions of women still having student loan debt, I’m ok w/women not being guaranteed a job, I’m ok w/ women still having
It’s so bizarre that Liz Warren lied about being Native, which is incredibly offensive and racist, yet nobody really talks about it.
Imagine if it were a Republican.
(she was only Republican for her first 49 years)
The fact is the Dems should have let Bernie and Hillary go at it fair and square in 2016, which Bernie probably wins. And Bernie probably beats Trump in ‘16. The Democratic Party sometimes has very anti-democratic impulses.
Quick update from the road in Iowa. We just filled up the Dodge Grand Caravan for $28.53. Your donations are literally keeping us fueled up as we begin this campaign. Chip in $28.53 now to keep us on the road:
I get called “ugly”, “gross”, “disgusting”, in comments of my live-streams, so here’s a sneak-preview of what you’re in for if you tune-in: if I offend your eyes, don’t join-Props to those who prioritize the substance I speak vs. focusing on aesthetics.
#InsipidAF
I want to hug the hell out of this guy! He just stood up + asked Joe, “besides ‘you ain’t black’, what do you say to the many black men + women who are thinking about sitting this election out”?
(Joe proceeded to explain his plan for Pre-K + home-buyers).
Hey,

@JimmyDoreShow

@miserablelib
were talking is not “what have I gotten myself into”, it’s “listening intently + with empathy”-Try it
Make no mistake: tomorrow will be our most difficult debate. Warren trashes us. Bloomberg trashes us. Buttigieg trashes us. Biden trashes us. The moderators will instigate + Bernie needs to go hard.
They are desperate + he needs to speak up about their bullshit.
So, I took your advice....I’m in Pennsylvania, but we aren’t voting for months; thus, I decided to apply for a field organizer position in New Hampshire-I have plenty of experience + infinite passion-Not sure if they’ll want me, but I’m prepared to move + give my all🔥
#Bernie2020
It’s privileged AF to say “I like Bernie, but I won’t vote for him because of his supporters, online”. You are literally saying your hurt feelings from a couple of assholes, supersede helping to better millions of lives.
#Priorities
I’m not voting for a guy who is MIA during a crisis, habitually lies, can’t keep hands to himself, tells ppl “go vote for someone else”, insults ppl who ask him ?’s, often speaks incoherently, + has a history of putting kids in cages.
I’m also not voting for trump.
I just completed my paperwork to run as a District 10, Pennsylvania
@BernieSanders
delegate-Should I be approved + get 500 signatures by local, registered Dems to get on the ballot, I’ll be campaigning to win a seat at the convention; to officially give Bernie my vote 💜🔥🐦
“That’s right!” Sanders (I-Vt.) responded, confirming it was Democrats, not Republicans, who were to blame for months of inaction.
“They walked away from $1.8 trillion-was that a mistake?” Tapper asked. “That’s what I’m saying. That’s exactly what I’m saying,” Sanders said-link👇🏻
