This year, @OnwardTogether was able to give more than $2.5 million in funding and grants to organizations fighting to make our country a better place.
I'm deeply inspired by what our partners have achieved this year. I think you will be too, so here's a report-back:

In two years,
@RunforSomething has recruited 28,000 young, diverse progressives who want to run for office and elected more than 200 of them to local office in 40 states. In 2018, their candidates were 3 of the 12 Texas House pick-ups and 3 of the 11 Florida House pick-ups.Show this thread -
In 2018,
@LatinoVictoryUS increased their endorsed candidates 500% over the previous year. Of their 58 candidates, 43 candidates won, bringing their 2018 win rate to a whopping 74%. The number of Democratic Latina members of Congress nearly doubled.Show this thread -
For many campaigns,
@SwingLeft was the wave. On average, for their top 15 campaigns, Swing Left drove more than 50% of their canvassing shifts. More than 60,000 volunteers knocked an estimated 5 million doors and made 2.5 million phone calls.Show this thread -
Five
@EmergeAmerica alumni are headed to Congress, and 145 were elected to state legislatures. Emerge alums also helped put an end to the Republican supermajorities in the Michigan and Pennsylvania senates.Show this thread -
There was a 10-point increase in youth turnout from 2014 to 2018, due in part to the hard work done by
@Alliance4Youth. More than 30% of young people voted in 2018! In Chicago, young people outperformed all other generations on Election Day for the first time ever.Show this thread -
As we finalize our plans for 2019 and beyond, I'm feeling grateful and proud to work alongside these smart, passionate partners. As ever, you can learn more about our work and help support it at http://onwardtogether.org . Onward to 2019.

Nothing on the wall
@HillaryClinton? You are mighty quiet these days? Why is that.... All of the sudden? Are you ill? Have you heard the recording going around? What's wrong? -
Your normally playing pretend president. Can't open the phone or turn on the TV with out your screaming and yelling rants he's lying. Even people that hate him know facts aren't lies, kind of like the FDA stuff with you. So what's the deal? Are you finally moving on with losing?

Just me has crabs and needs someone to blame?

Wow. You sound really smart. Day late and a dollar short. And that's what you say. I'm sorry you're sad. As I've said Michael Obama. Sorry Michelle... Is now taking care of the children. Line forms to the left.

The world is watching. We are in this self inflicted quagmire impossible to disengage ourselves from because we chose to elect some who isn't playing with a full deck in the first place , hardly saying and doing the right thing once in a blue moon.

Unable to be humble enough to concede our guess is as good as his to problems he is clueless and now he's expected to bite off more than he can chew. One has to bear in mind what might be the last straw that broke the camel's back. Time n opportunity is never endless!
