    I appreciate Gov. Newsom taking this stand. Californians can't remain hostage to a profiteering corporation for a basic need. PG&E's greed and corruption led to gross mismanagement of the state's electric system. Californians deserve a utility that's accountable to the people.
    The state of California could take over Pacific Gas and Electric if the utility company does not pull itself out of bankruptcy by June 2020, California Gov. Gavin Newsom said

    In the richest nation on earth, an estimated 35k+ people die each year because they can’t afford health care. Hoping this will shock us into action.

    Let’s be clear: GOP Sen. AND Dem Senate candidate are both pro-fossil-fuel & anti-Green New Deal. Replacing Gardner with another anti-GND isn’t great for the climate fight. Dems instead can choose a pro-GND senate nominee like .

    This is a pervasive ideology in Washington. It can be summed up as “anything that requires a fight against billionaires and corporate donors is not worth fighting for.”

    This is why alot of Democratic politicians' criticism of Medicare for All feels inauthentic. The opposition is not principled, it is because consultants have told them it is too risky. Similar to when many of these same folks were softpedaling impeachment

    This is the kind of statement that the political/media class considers totally uncouth. It horrifies the entire power structure. But here’s the thing: is exactly right.
    .: "The Democratic party must become the party of the working-class of this country, not of super PACs, not of corporate interests, not of their lobbyists."

    Anytime slams Medicare for All, reporters should probably contextualize the criticism by disclosing that Biden’s campaign is bankrolled by a super PAC that’s run by health care industry lobbyists. Seems like that’s a relevant detail.
