While this is a HUGE WIN, there's more work to do. It's time to DOUBLE DOWN in pressuring Congress. They need to revoke the OMB Proposal. Members of Congress who fail to stop the Proposal will be out of a job January 3rd, 2027, we will make sure of it. 🧵

@our-revolution.bsky.social: As a citizen of CA-04, I call on you to rethink & rescind your endorsement of Eric Jones. A former partner of venture capitalist firm Dragoneer, funded by his own million$ and million$ from VC and high tech execs, is not what OR says it stands for. #DataCenterMoritorium
@our-revolution.bsky.social — Your Eric Jones endorsement in CA-04 contradicts everything you stand for. You said it yourselves: "A Congress of millionaires will legislate for their corporate investments." Meet your candidate. 🧵 open.substack.com/pub/rosiethe... #CA04 #SupportDataCenterMoritorium

UPDATE: Today 35 former federal judges filed a comprehensive opposition to Donald Trump’s expedited motion to stay in the case of Donald J. Trump v. Internal Revenue Service. Simply put, members of the legal system are trying to put a stop to Trump's ongoing corruption.
That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?
Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

Wall Street traders can now pay for early access to Trump's Truth Social posts. The President regularly uses his platform to announce policy decisions that impact the market. A corporate CEO would get jail time for this. Trump's getting a pay bump.

Trump again backs down, claiming Iran (and others) are begging for a deal so he can cancel the attack. Same old story: “locked and loaded” threats, then pause for talks on Hormuz and nukes. Get it DONE… until the next time.
⏰ This is extremely important. Eric Jones has claimed that he has no connection to the super PAC that has dumped money into his, and only his, campaign. Yet he has close ties to the people who are funding the super PAC and he has not asked them to stand down. Now he’s feeding them what to say.

More accurately: Eric Jones is a person who claims to be leftist but who is being funded by a super PAC that has had millions of dollars dumped into it by AI and high-tech executives. Even Fox News sees through him. And Bernie is no longer associated with Our Revolution.
Leftist Eric Jones, who’s been endorsed by Bernie Sanders’ Our Revolution group, says “I’m running for Congress because I know what it feels like to do everything right and still struggle” but actually has between $18 million & $86 million in assets, including his $4.6 million Napa home.

Taylor Farms called the White House to delay an FDA recall of their produce that sickened thousands with a parasitic infection. This shows how Trump is willing to put corporate interests over the health of Americans. We’re investigating this unprecedented White House interference.

Republican Senator Bernie Moreno was trying to act REAL tough just days ago. But when it came to defending his own daughter, his silence spoke volumes.
Many of you recall that in 2020 I helped lead an effort to defeat Donald Trump more than 60 times after the election. In 2026, DOJ is 0-19 in cases to obtain state voter files and Elias Law Group is helping lead the way. We are not done fighting and we are not done winning.
