What I saw across the country this past Tuesday was bold progressives, particularly bold women of color, but also progressive Black men - get elected nationwide in places where that had never happened before. It's time the leadership of the Democratic Party look like its voters

Many of us strongly prefer @RepBarbaraLee to be the Majority Leader over Nancy Pelosi. All I know is that when all of this is said and done, it's going to be a problem for me and thousands of others if the Democratic majority has no Black women in leadership. PERIOD.

Completely separate thought stream....

NOW is the time for us to be actively talking about the Democratic candidates for President. Yes, I know runoffs & recounts are happening. I'm working with those campaigns. But I ASSURE you that candidates are actively gathering commitments & blessings, etc. as we speak.

I have not made a commitment to any candidates who might be running for President, but have told several of them that I will be waiting to see who all announces, what they say they stand for, who they hire to run their campaigns before I make my decision.

I'll be frank and tell you two Democrats that I am 99% sure I won't be supporting - primarily because of their dismal history on criminal justice reform over the course of their entire careers. Joe Biden & Kamala Harris. They both helped build & advance mass incarceration.

She never said that. That is not true.
