Best news in what feels like an eternity.. Tears of happiness.

It is so heart warming to see Amy Goodman's face filled with joy about this! She like so many progressives have been fighting so hard and it is so beautiful to see Amy's face filled with happiness over this win and I can see the hope for our future from this win.

Well done Ms. Ocasio-Cortez! You give us hope. We need more Progressives to replace the so-called Democrats like Senator Stabenow who voted to roll back the banking reforms hard fought by Senator Warren. I wish there was a Progressive running against Debbie Stabenow. I'll vote for her in November but we need a better choice. Thank you, and best of luck!

There is hope, this win shows it and with all the people who've showed up and showed out for the poor peoples campaign in D.C. proves that together we can make America great for all humanity for the 1st time in history. "Let's rock the boat and shake up the barrel." Register and Re-Register to ensure your names is on the roles. Let it be known the politicians work to represent the people not a corporation.

Alexandra's victory is misnomered as "a historic win." It is actually a rescue of the historic principles upon which American was founded. Hip hip hooray!
