Who will be joining me for Saturday's kickoff rally for Hillary Clinton?

Saturday, June 13, Roosevelt Island in NYC. Doors open at 9 AM (expedited entry for people who have pre-registered); my sources tell me she's expected to speak at 11.

Such a huge event. You could truly be watching the person who will become the first female US President. How fucked up is that? We represent half the population yet have never had full representation at the highest level. You might be watching history. Be safe and have fun.

...and park in the garage, but you may be better off parking in Manhattan and taking the subway or tram over.

Will try to get some more logistical details from my Clinton sources tomorrow.

but be careful, I hear the crowds will be so big it could be dangerous for her supporters. Pandemonium, even.
