Indivisible offers resources for people to organize and act without waiting for orders from the DNC.

Mamdani is about to be elected mayor of NYC with little to no support from the DNC, just “people power”.

He will be the first of many across the nation.

As the economy worsens, inflation, healthcare premiums and unemployment climb, the people will be ready willing and able to support radical change and radical action.

As the quote goes, “be the change you wish to see” or something to that effect.

To save the nation, the people must lead, not wait for marching orders from a political party.
