John,
I know, 2025 was a rotten year.
But it was an important year, too. The intentions of the American oligarchy were on full display — but so was the power of the people.
I hope you’ll watch this week’s video celebrating 10 big victories from 2025 — then share it with your friends.
Do your top 10 victories coincide with mine? I’m thinking about both national wins and state and local challenges to the status quo.
I’m thinking about the best messages that won campaigns for us up and down the ballot.
And I’m thinking about the many times the will of the people overcame millions of dollars spent by billionaire oligarchs.
As we turn the page to a new year, we are not giving up. We are putting in the work in our states and communities — and winning big.
Remember: we outnumber the oligarchs. Let’s keep up the fight in 2026.
