. @JoeBiden just won with the highest youth turnout in history. Young people saved American Democracy & ended the fascist reign of Donald Trump.

You know what the number one swing issue for young black folks and young latinos was? Climate.

We just gave Biden a #ClimateMandate
Are Biden & Harris going to lead with bold power? Are they going to smash all those DC norms that let our people die?

Or are they gonna be McConnell& #39;s vice president?
Biden won on the strength of his Green New Deal influenced economic recovery & climate plan - the plan we redesigned w/ @AOC as part of the climate task-force.

In the last week of his campaign he focused on targeting climate voters. That midnight hour decision saved his campaign
Biden out-performed Conservative Dems who ceded all economic vision.

They have been losing down ballot races for a decade, but every election, the losers blame something new. Gay marriage, #MedicareForAll or #BlackLivesMatter https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">.
They lose because Democracy is a popularity contest and they are unpopular.

Populism reigns this era. The ideals progressives fight for are widely popular & accessible.

We can& #39;t cure fascism with centrism. We will only win with bigger ideas.
No progressive lost their seat. Sunrise& #39;s swing state organizing made the margin of difference in every swing state win. It& #39;s time to remake the Democratic Party in our image.

The Dems will go extinct if they don& #39;t build people power.
You only build people power by waging a fight & dismantling pitiful impossibilities. Showing up to protests & union meetings. Recruiting candidates who sound like their constituents.

Populism will either kill us or save us all, you decide. The age of incrementalism is over.
