Bernie Sanders: If we had a rational system designed to improve life, education could be free from childcare to graduate school. We can have universal health care. We can lead the world in transforming our energy system. We can build affordable and low income housing.

On a positive note, right wing Christian Nationalist anti LBGTQ+ and Muslim hater Bryan Fischer of Focal Point fame on American Family Radio, died in October. His hateful anti-Jesus voice is now silent. The world is a better place without his hate.

It’s unconscionable that congress and the President do nothing and continue to be paid, while the government workers who keep us safe and people who need food assistance are literally cut off completely.

The president said, in a televised speech, that he's sending his new, less restrained, more violent military into US cities to practice their brutality on immigrants and minorities, to better train them to apply that brutality to other countries.
He said this out loud.

People of Illinois, we need your help.
Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.
We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

A group of us have arrived on the Senate floor to challenge our colleagues - on both sides of the aside - to rise to this moment and jointly condemn what has happened to Sen. Padilla. Yes we still need to collect the full facts, but this appears to be a defining moment for the country.
