Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

Government is shut down. Chaos in airports. 42 million going hungry. 24 million face skyrocketing healthcare costs. Economy in turmoil. And the president of the United States is in the Fox broadcast booth calling plays for a football game.

So the oldest person ever to become president keeps falling asleep in his office during public events and there’s no big public discussion on how this is a coverup or how republicans are lying to us about how this government is running?
Great historical perspective of making choices that work for all people. I have historical roots in Lunenburg but never heard this history.
The settling of North America has some very dark moments. But Canada chose to rise above the intolerance to build a country based on diversity, equity, inclusion, democracy.
Canada is a nation but it also a choice that we make.
And we will defend that choice.

$40B of your money to this guy, so he can dance at CPAC at Mar-a-Lago while Americans wait for their paychecks, hoping the money actually comes.

I had to look at it closely. Thought it was the old Trump, Epstein and Maxwell pic he was referring to.

Veteran Healthcare is a sterling model of an excellent system. At least for my disabled veteran. Quite amazing.

In Chicago, a woman was driving to get coffee when a DHS vehicle fleeing an angry crowd crashed into her car. Armed agents jumped out of the vehicle, yanked her door open, pulled her by the legs out of her car at gunpoint, held her incommunicado for hours, then released her with no charges.

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance.

The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income.

They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive.

Wanna fix fraud and abuse?

Fix that.

The wealth of the 10 richest Americans has soared by $700 billion since Trump was reelected.

Meanwhile, millions of Americans are going hungry because Trump is illegally withholding contingency funds that would keep food stamps funded during his shutdown.

Two Americas.
Just like Canada. Rounding up or down goes smoothly there. May get shot here
No words. Endless tragedy for these people and no possibility of refugee status in the U.S. because they are not white South Africans.

That’s all we need. More privileged whites. Why are they part of the refugee program?

I put off doing the inevitable…I called my insurance provider.

My current premium is $480. It will be almost $900 next year.

Thanks, Trump voters.
