Let me thank our brothers and sisters in the trade union movement for being here and our progressive elected officials as well. And I suspect that many of you were out yesterday on the Note Tuesday. As I understand it, More people were out demonstrating yesterday than at any time in the history of the United States of America. I was in St. Paul, Minneapolis area, 150,000 people. And all across this country, the American people are saying no to authoritarianism, no to oligarchy, and no to the continued attack against the American working class. (01:23–01:31)
