Thank You to the Democratic Underground! [View all]

I could not have gotten through the last 4 years without all of you! From the nightmare of 2016 election day, where DU got hacked and taken down, and every day in between through today I have found strength here. It's a very well informed and eternally optimistic group here.

We fought the good fight, we kept the faith, now enjoy the prize and celebrate today.

This place is filled with righteous keyboard warriors and local activists. Millions of posts across the internet originated here to fight the disinformation campaign. We volunteered locally, we raised a ton of cash, and we above all believed in the good of this country.

Today is a good day, enjoy it. Tomorrow is a brighter day with more work to do, but today belongs to us!

Than you to everyone!
