Could I just say what a miracle it is to feel HOPE again?

I'm watching our Vice President and Tim Walz at this event with tears running down my face. I know we can do this. She's right. When we fight, we WIN. I see so many YOUNG people and older people and people of every color and people dressed up in rainbows. What a perfect, beautiful tapestry we see there.

I'm going to go get some tissues and pull myself together. This is AWESOME.

And it feels like DU is one big group hug right now. ABSOLUTELY love it and can't believe it.

We celebrate tonight; tomorrow we work! "We'll sleep when we're dead!"
