CNN contributor and progressive activist Van Jones explained to colleague Kaitlan Collins precisely how Democrats were able to pull off their surreal blowout victory. “Now it can be told,” Jones said with a sly grin on his face.

How did we win the narrative on affordability? Was it just these nice little Democrats out there running for office and going to — No. The Republicans never figured out what we were doing.

There’s something called the American Accountability Network. Tens of thousands of online humans — not bots — coordinated to make the affordability message a winning message online.

[Democrats certainly have a knack for choosing organization names that suggest the opposite of what their actual missions are, don’t they?]

Reading from his notes to ensure accuracy, Jones said, “32.5 million people hit on Instagram every day, 88.8 million hit on Twitter, X every single day. And 185 million hits on Facebook every single day. And they never figured it out.”

The Republicans could not understand. It wasn’t bots, it was actual human beings. The most effective online organizing campaign … flew under the radar screen.

Driving the kitchen table affordability message and tying that to Democrats on a positive and Republicans on a negative.
