13. Chris Murphy is sounding the alarm that we don't have until the midterms. We have mere months.

He should lead the senate dems, not Schumer. We need to fill all leadership positions with new guard attitude dems, not old guard attitude dems.

I read 35,000 people turned out for Bernie & AOC in LA, & there's not even an election coming up! Their message resonates. The dems should run with it, but instead when I'm on FB, all I get from the DNC is "We're fighting for you. Can you please send money?" I know they're doing more than I see but if I don't see it, I doubt others do either.

On edit: Just now on FB, from Democrats:

Democrats
Sponsored · Paid for by DNC SERVICES CORP./DEM. NAT'L COMMITTEE ·

Here’s what the War Room Operation will help Democrats do:

COMPETE IN CONSERVATIVE MEDIA: The DNC will compete in conservative media spaces, going where important conversations are happening and not just where it’s comfortable.

HOST TOWN HALLS: The DNC will keep hosting town halls in red districts to engage the voters that House Republicans are ignoring, which has been an enormous success.

ENGAGE INFLUENCERS: The DNC is building out a robust influencer engagement operation that taps into trusted voices across the country and across the social media ecosystem.

DAILY RAPID RESPONSE: The DNC will play a central coordinating role in driving a central message of the day across the Democratic ecosystem.

COMBAT MISINFORMATION: The DNC is launching a People’s Cabinet to tap into a deep bench of experts and community voices to directly counter Trump’s lies.

PUT REPUBLICANS ON THE DEFENSE: The DNC will scale its best-in-class research operation to expose Trump, Musk, Vance, and Republicans up and down the ballot.
