Last night, I was with
@IlhanMN
when we heard people at Trump's rally were chanting “send her back."
She was unfazed. Sadly, she said, this racism isn't new.
Ilhan has incredible courage. She won’t back down to Trump’s hate, and neither will we.
Yesterday, August 13th, would have been Michael's 40th birthday. The

This powerful and loving tribute to my dear brother

with the inimitable brother Slavoj Zizek should keep our fire alive for truth and justice! I also thank sister Lisha, brother Forrester and brother Russell!
Let’s be clear: I won't take a dime of PAC money in this campaign. I won't take a single check from a federal lobbyist, or billionaires who want to run a Super PAC on my behalf.
