At some point they're having various "mothers of the (BLM) movement" speak. One of them is Trayvon Martin's mother.

My guess is they will be around the same time as the labor leaders were today.

Andrew Cuomo introducing Bernie Sanders to the New York delegation breakfast:



Cuomo praised Sanders on his housing record, the $15 minimum wage, paid family leave, and gay marriage. Interesting combination there to say the least.

Talks Underway for Bernie to Nominate Hillary at Roll Call

That would be something, wouldn't it.

I wish Harkin would have retired in 2020. Democrats should never retire in a midterm.

The sign language part was a great touch.

Bernie Sanders chat after Harkin was done. At least it was after he spoke, positive, and not that loud.

A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself. HEY DONALD! *Swings axe*

Love that movie

God, are the Bernie people gonna chant after each speech? This is madness.

Solid speech by ALG anyway.

I actually kinda like the "Hillary-Bernie" back and forth, as long as they are respectful to the speaker.

Oh, I was hoping Jeff Merkley would step in for Bernie. :/

He spoke last night and did a pretty good job.

Bringing Tulsi Gabbard back to the DNC would be a good olive branch for Donna Brazile to give the Sanders camp.

I love Barbara Mikulski. Her history makes it a great choice to nominate Hillary.

Derisively referred to as "Play-Doh Face" by my BernieBro friends, one of whom is a delegate in that arena tonight.

Whoever says that about him is a disgrace.

I wanted to strangle the BernieBros that called him an Uncle Tom.

I had no idea Bernie had a brother abroad! Cheesy

I think he's a member of the UK Green Party as a duel citizen or something.
