Veterans Day is a time to honor all of the brave Americans who have answered the call to put country above self, and to reflect on the sacrifices they have made for our freedoms and our nation Democrats will fight to ensure the rights and benefits of all veterans are protected.
This Veterans Day, we honor all who have bravely and selflessly served our nation in uniform.

When I took over as chair of the DNC, we immediately began building up our state parties to prepare for the Blue Wave. Our record investments in the Democratic Party’s infrastructure helped deliver a historic midterm victory.

One of the very best committees in DC- led by the incredible @Heather4Dems and @AndreaSCousins. So proud of their work - most number of legislative seats flipped and chambers gained in 50 years!! You can't focus on Federal power at the expense of state and local power.. It all goes hand in hand.
At @DLCC, we lead the national strategy to win back power in statehouses all across the country, and our results this year speak for themselves: We flipped at least 12 chambers and over 500 GOP-held seats across the country! bit.ly/47YIpB4

Democrats just had one of the biggest midterm sweeps in recent history. When we organize and invest everywhere, we can truly win anywhere. Onward, Democrats!

Sure, the DNC's official account started swearing online That's far from the most interesting part of their revamped strategy Let's talk about their clip library, and why the smartest thing a brand can do is stop being the messenger and start supplying the message People's accounts perform better than brands A lot better! I learned this at Peloton five years ago, when I was running the brand account The instructors had fewer followers than the brand, but they'd get multiples of our engagement on the same asset Multiply that by 30 instructors and they were our best marketing tool (This is why I quit brand social and started working directly with people on theirs btw) The DNC figured out the best thing a brand can do is get out of its own way They put 700 creators in a one-way Signal chat, fed them clips of Ossoff's rallies and Trump officials' worst moments, and let them do their thing Brands still treat their people as amplifiers for the main account It's the other way around semafor.com/article/11/08/20…

On Tuesday, Democrats flipped: At least 43 House seats. At least 7 Senate seats. At least 5 governorships. At least 500 state legislative seats. With more races still to be called. This is what happens when you invest in state parties: You can win anywhere.

When I became DNC chair, I made a bet: If we organized everywhere, we could win anywhere. Democrats had to start organizing year-round—in blue states, red states, and purple states—to rebuild trust with voters and win back power nationwide. And that’s exactly what we did. 🧵

Finally, I want to thank our more than 1 million unique small dollar donors who helped fund all of this work. These donors helped us break grassroots fundraising records, including raising $60 million more than we raised with grassroots donors in 2018.

These historic investments from the DNC helped power our party to flip the House, win the Senate, and take back power up and down the ballot nationwide. And this is just the beginning. The Democratic Party is ready to build off of this work in 2028 and beyond.
