PA brings it home—literally, to Joe's actual childhood house.
The Democratic Party has delegates from all 57 states and territories. And we're going to elect leaders that remember all 57.
WISCONSIN!
Mandela Barnes, @TheOtherMandela, the first Black Lt Gov in our state's history and a progressive champion, here to cast Wisconsin's electoral college votes. So grateful for your leadership, Mandela!
Folks, we've got a nominee.
That is the most adorable "congrats on being nominated for president" party of all time

It's been the honor of my life to serve as Chair of @WisDems for the last 6 years. With a pro-democracy Supreme Court secured for years, WI can reach for a trifecta in 2026. Our state party is in superb shape. So today, I’m announcing that, this summer, I’m passing the torch.🧵
Now is the right time for me to take a breath, and find new ways to advance the fight for a country that works for working people—one that honors every person's dignity and freedom. I'm going to take some time to figure out what's next, & spend time with a family I fiercely love.
Justice-elect Susan Crawford’s victory over Brad Schimel, Elon Musk, and Donald Trump marks a sea change in American politics.
The fight back has begun.
This is a thread about what just happened—and a huge thank you to those who drove it. 🧵
Susan Crawford’s victory astonished the country and the world—not just because she won after being outspent by a campaign fueled by the world’s richest man, but because she did so by a double-digit margin in the deepest-purple state in America.
The margin of victory in both the Presidential and Senate races in 2024 was under one percentage point. Susan Crawford won by 10%. Relative to 2024’s presidential race, every single county in Wisconsin moved left.
“For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind." – Hosea 8:7
Trump, Musk, and the entire GOP keep sowing the wind.
The whirlwind is here. 🧵
Howls of protest are rising from every corner of Wisconsin, and of the country. And we’ve got the first statewide test coming up in 32 days: Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race. Help us beat Brad Schimel and Elon Musk—by chipping in to elect Susan Crawford: secure.actblue.com/donate/wisdems…
Trump and Vance blowing up at Zelenskyy in the Oval Office today: sowing. npr.org/2025/02/28/nx-…
Elon Musk is shredding the United States government. But that’s not enough for him. Now, he wants to buy Wisconsin’s state Supreme Court as well. 🧵
Musk’s plan: put his bag man, Brad Schimel, on the court—so he can suppress votes, lock in the GOP’s House majority, re-rig state legislative maps, and prevent any check on himself and Trump.
Musk is hellbent on firing dedicated public servants who look out for regular folks instead of serving far-right billionaires. No wonder he doesn’t like Judge Susan Crawford. And if he succeeds here, your state is next.
1. Fight back against the MAGA/DOGE assault on our country and hold all GOP politicians accountable. 2. Lift up Dems who are doing the right thing. 3. Win elections.
A chance to do #3 is coming in Wisconsin, 53 days from now. 🧵
The core thing to remember: right now, GOP politicians are terrified of crossing Musk/Trump.
They’re not yet afraid of the political consequences of betraying the public.
That’s how we get every GOP Senator voting to confirm Project 2025’s architect to run the federal budget.
Changing the fundamental political equation of this moment requires Republicans dividing, Democrats uniting, and voters rejecting the GOP at every level.
If—when—we make that happen, the Republican onslaught will begin to crumble.
We’re in the final stretch. On Saturday, the Democratic National Committee will elect our next chair. Here’s an update on where our campaign is now, and our path to victory.
Our current count is 183 DNC members supporting me. Here’s how we got there, and where we’re going. 🧵
The momentum’s with us. Just today, we’ve earned public endorsements from the entire Kentucky delegation, Indivisible, and many more individual DNC members. Meanwhile, IUBAC & UNITE HERE joined AFSCME, AFT, NEA, and SEIU in endorsing our campaign—and nine governors.
When I talk to DNC members, I hear that they want a battle-tested leader who can out-organize and out-communicate the GOP.
Wisconsin politics can be brutal trench warfare. We see the worst the GOP has to offer. Now, the country faces that kind of fight—so we need to fight back.
