Let‘s be clear. The panty *is* bare for millions of families. Not for Congress. Not now. Not ever. “People start lining up as early as 6 a.m. these days outside an emergency food pantry in Brooklyn’s Flatbush neighborhood.” wsj.com/articles/pandemic-gr…

Why are we immediately publicly caving on the only thing keeping millions of people afloat? What is the point of this?
House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer says Democrats are willing to agree to a new coronavirus stimulus package that doesn't include an extension of an extra $600 in weekly unemployment benefits, saying the party's position is not "$600 or bust." cnn.it/2X04fzW

The “how will you pay for it” conversation we should have been having all along.

Sorry to the hundreds of thousands in Iraq, Libya, Gaza, Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria, Honduras: you needed to die.
It's incredible that this has to be said: Letting thousands of people needlessly suffer and die is wrong. It's also not a recipe for rescuing the economy.

The same airlines who spent $45 billion in stock buybacks for their wealthy shareholders are now demanding a $50 billion bailout. This is unacceptable. We should be bailing out *workers*, not airlines, casinos, or oil executives.

Don’t say you support a fracking ban when you don’t. Don’t say you didn’t write the bankruptcy bill when you were one of it’s biggest champions. Don’t say you supported ending Hyde a long time ago when you were just pressured into it last year. This is basic. The truth matters.

Thank you @SenatorBern for not tokenizing women. A woman VP is not the same as endorsing a feminist agenda. #DemDebate #BernieIsRight #FemTheFuture #AmoBernie

We've been told over and over that Medicare for All is "too radical." I think it's radical to have a health care system that leaves 87 million people uninsured or underinsured. I think it's radical that people can't afford to see a doctor during a pandemic.

That’s weird. Why do they need to do that? I was told by Republicans and many Democrats that Americans ‘love’ their existing plans and don’t want any changes.
Pence says health insurers have agreed to the following for coronavirus testing and treatment: -Waive copays -Extend coverage on all plans -Cover telemedicine -No surprise billing Medicare, Medicaid will also cover coronavirus testing and treatment.

Almost nobody - until now - talked about Yemen for the years US was droning it and then aiding Saudis to savagely bomb its civilians.
Yemen barely came up in the Presidential election. Now we hear the Trump administration views Yemen as a key test. But of what I'm not sure.
