Sanders has openly endorsed Biden. The Squad (AOC et al) can sit down

National politics This year is not about individual Dems holding the Dem Party hostage in their specific pet projects—it is about joining forces and GETTING THINGS DONE!

Nothing gets accomplished until GOP is in minority in the Senate and Trump is gone.

FOCUS, people!!!

AOC and Omar should take advice from Pelosi about how to have an impact in Washington DC.

Let us go forward and take down Trump with a single minded laser focus. This is really the ball game.

Not sure about Omar, but AOC has been pretty clear about that. Wouldn't be surprised if she was one of the Bernie supporters who helped nudge him to this point.

She can and should continue to champion the things she has before, but we need a united phalanx of support making way for Biden.

the Rogan indorsement, Pressley supported Warren. Omar hasn't really been that public on who she supported.

All talk of 'leverage' to force platform and rules changes must go by the board.

What he said today is good so far as it goes. He has behaved dishonorably in the past, and I have a long memory for things like that. We shall see, and I hope we shall see enthusiastic co-operation from Sanders.
