These three candidates in Michigan came for the establishment. They all just won. A movement is building.

This is a win for @wewill2026.bsky.social, @abdulelsayed.bsky.social, @donavanmckinney.bsky.social. This is a win for Michigan. This is a win for regular people everywhere who are tired of being taken advantage of.

@donavanmckinney.bsky.social has won his primary election for Congress in Michigan. He's a union organizer coming for corporate do-nothing Democrats who use their office to line their own pockets while Michiganders can't afford housing and healthcare. McKinney is taking that fight to DC.
@abdulelsayed.bsky.social has won his primary election for Senate in Michigan. He went up against record amounts of dark money. He won anyway because he stayed locked in on what Michiganders' actually need: a government that answers to you instead of billionaires.
I couldn’t be prouder of the movement we’ve built in mid-Michigan. Thank you, Ambassador Bridget Brink and Matt Maasdam, for your years of public service and all your hard work on the campaign trail. While tonight we celebrate, there’s still much more work ahead.
@wewill2026.bsky.social has won his primary election for Congress in Michigan. He is the only candidate in his race fighting AI billionaires who are bulldozing our communities, standing up to big money and fighting for people who actually live in Michigan.
The establishment is scared. Michigan is coming for you.
This is the story of three candidates fighting against the rich and powerful for a brighter future.

Our campaign has continued to surge despite the millions of dollars in ridiculous smears misrepresenting my record. We've built real relationships that can't be bought by dark money lies. Our movement is ready to weather the attacks from the GOP and beat Barrett in November.
"Right now our democracy is in distress. And maybe the solution to the problem is sending a doctor to the senate." Honored to represent @workingfamilies.org today and help get folks fired up to vote for @abdulelsayed.bsky.social in Michigan. 🐺🔥
New @workingfamilies.org poll suggests voters want candidates who are outsiders, willing to bring big changes to Washington and elsewhere. That could help democratic socialist candidates in this year's midterms... truthout.org/articles/swi...
Swing District Voters Want Major Change. That Could Help Democratic Socialists in This Year’s Midterms.
Two-thirds of voters said that “the country’s political and economic systems need fundamental change,” the poll found.

“Billionaires create wealth.” No, workers do that. The word you’re looking for is “hoard.”
The poorest district in Michigan is currently being represented by multimillionaire Shri Thanedar, whose re-election campaign is being bankrolled by AIPAC and crypto PACs. Union organizer Donavan McKinney is running to change that:
We polled voters in 18 toss-up districts and the results are clear: voters want candidates who will challenge the political establishment, not give it cover. Here are some interesting findings from @workingfamilies.org... 🧵
This former climate activist could help shape the future of AI. (spoiler: the billionaires won’t be happy)
We can afford to house people. We can afford to feed people. We can afford to give people healthcare. We just need to put more people in office who will actually do it.
Floridians deserve a future that isn't just affordable, but one that actually allows us to dream, to live, to flourish. That's what I'm committed to bring as your next US Senator. I am honored to have the support of @workingfamilies.org, @ilhanmn.bsky.social & Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib.
I’m in LA this weekend for the California @workingfamilies.org Convention, where I was thrilled to meet Randy Villegas @villegas4congress.bsky.social. (1/3)
We don't want a society where trillionaires exist at the same time as hungry families.
No one should need multiple jobs just to survive.
Stop telling workers to get a better job, and start telling greedy CEOs and corporations to stop exploiting workers.
