Of course it gave me a feeling that I haven't had in a long time. Even before it ended with the incredible Higher Ground I was wondering what will my outlook/mood be tomorrow.

I'm enjoying it while I can and hoping it inspires others. I also hope that our candidates in November can use this ceremony as a guide for organizing rallies. Can you imagine the contrast between rallies with this spirit and a trump rally?

Nevertheless I'm trying to remain optimistic. I hope his second term has shaken some sense into some people and they show up on election day and vote accordingly.

is it just enough for the city?

about how he loved stevie wonder, and that had to mean something. that was the point at which i was convinced all the gushing i had heard about this guy was for real.

and stevie loved him back. best concert i ever attended was a free concert in grant park in the summer of 08 by stevie. not a big line up, just stevie. it was a concert for the campaign , but obama wasnt even there. he played a rly long time, too.
you’ve never seen a bigger, happier crowd. dancin, singin, being happy to b in chgo when it was the center of the political universe, and about to change the world.

Leaders lead, and this is a war not for "hearts and minds" but to prevent the country from sliding into fascism.

We need a wartime consigliere. Period.

A handful of people are full time on this matter. This very moment: Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and John Ossoff. You don't' fight this war from a desk.

Not to disparage others, but



Shout out to vets!!

It’s election integrity that’s in question.

Unfortunately.

We goddamn well better seek higher ground….
