This is a moment of truth for white progressives.
Are you with Black and brown voters and our allies fighting for the soul of America and standing firmly behind Biden and Harris?
Or are you with a movement led almost exclusively by white men working against us?
You decide.

Recognize Those Who Do Not Prioritize Democracy
Be aware of the "Pass The Torch" PAC, which involves Steve Schmidt, a Republican strategist. Schmidt, at the behest of donors like Tom Strickler, has been promoting a narrative suggesting that President Biden and Vice President Harris should step down from running for re-election.
Additionally, exercise caution regarding discredited pollsters like Nate Silver, who was recently hired by Polymarket. Polymarket is a crypto-based prediction market platform that allows users to place bets on world events and is backed by the venture-capital firm Founders Fund.
Founders Fund, led by Peter Thiel, is heavily investing in Polymarket, even as a key U.S. regulator intensifies efforts to restrict activity on such platforms. Thiel has also made significant contributions to J.D. Vance's U.S. Senate campaign and played a pivotal role in securing Vance's position on the VP ticket with Trump.
These are just a few individuals interconnected working against our democracy and the will of the voters. Don’t allow them to undermine our democratic values. Stay informed, stay vigilant, and empower yourself with knowledge.

As Chair of this party… we have had 57 caucuses and primaries … in which @JoeBiden received 14 Million votes and over 3900 delegates.
The last time I looked… there are no “mini-primaries” in our rules.
NEWS: Should Biden decide to drop out, Democratic leaders are coalescing around plans for a “mini-primary” to replace him on the ticket.
Multiple sources tell FOX this has been discussed at “the highest levels” – but sources emphasize it is merely a contingency discussion at this point, and that Biden has made no decision to drop out.
Part of the reasoning driving this plan is to remain aligned with the democratic process, since it would replace the decision of Dem primary voters.
The Biden campaign reiterates to FOX that President Biden is staying in the race.
Campaign Chair Jen O’Malley Dillon said this morning:
“You have heard from the President directly time and again: He is in this race to win, and he is our nominee, and he's going to be our President for a second term.”

In my view, the key CPAC story isn’t that right-wing influencer Jack Posebiec said, “Welcome to the end of democracy. We are here to overthrow it completely.”
The story is how many Republican lawmakers are absolutely silent about it.
May I suggest the media ask every Congressional member who speaks at CPAC, and every Republican presidential candidate for that matter, the following three questions:
1) Do you reject Jack Posebiec’s comments?
2) Do you support democracy?
3) Do you respect the separation of church and state?
And don't stop asking until you get answers.
I believe journalists have a duty to uncover just how deep the threat to American democracy runs.
It’s the answers that should frighten us. Never the questions.

Conservative activists are claiming the first Black president in Harvard’s 387 year history is an affirmative action hire & actually not qualified for the job. Folks…Black women do not get jobs only white men have ever had by being mediocre and unqualified. Not happening.

“Hamas’ refusal to release the remaining young women is what broke this deal and ended the pause in the fighting.” -President Biden
If you want peace, don’t “both sides” Israeli victims of sexual violence — call upon Hamas to release them! #BringThemAllHome

Dear Pro-Palestine activists. Sometimes I make sense. You might want to listen to HAMAS's plan and how you are NOW part of it. h/t @rolandsmartin

.@KyivPost There is no decent human on earth who wants to see innocent people suffer. Hamas is a terrorist organization that butchered 1400 Israelis and are using the Palestinians as human shields. That was the plan.
