Note that we list my talks to grassroots groups as a core Hopium activity. Shining a light, and lifting up, the great work so many of you are doing across the country is an important part of what we will be doing here. See this video for more on how important and muscular the Democratic grassroots has become, and feel free to join any of the events linked above I’m speaking to as many gatherings as I can about our need to defeat MAGA, tell our story more effectively, and ensure freedom and democracy prevail. You can learn how to invite me to speak at a future event here.
Been a great start so far - thanks everyone for being part of our early days here. Simon
