Sanders: I am not a great fan of the affordable care act. I believe in medicare for all. I think that health care is a human right, but I will be damned if I'm going to see people in Vermont and around this country see a doubling in their premiums.

Oh, what a surprise! Firings and resignations are causing chaos in the U.S. attorney's office handling the Comey case. I'm sure that's just a coincidence in the well-oiled machine that is Donald Trump's administration.

Kamala Harris: He had no plan for actually bringing down costs and prices for the American people. He had very few plans for what he would actually do that was about the American people, and not his vengeance on his enemies.

Gupta: It is safe. That’s what the best-quality research shows. And how irresponsible, using the podium of the WH to put this out there when you’re not even offering an alternative. That is dangerous. An untreated fever is dangerous. Untreated pain in pregnancy is dangerous.

Even if you bomb Venezuelans!
Even if you invade American cities!
Even if you cancel Jimmy Kimmel!
Even if you hate Democrats!
Even if you are orange!

David Letterman says:

With an authoritarian government, everyone is going to get touched.

TRUTH!

Everyone!
