    Having worked there for a couple and a half years, I can say you should always remember the Center for American Progress is looking to get its people jobs. It's a warehouse for potential presidential staff. They don't think Bernie Sanders will hire them.

    To future film producers whose documentaries will tell the story of how we finally passed Medicare for All & created a humane healthcare system: Please dont pretend the opposition was just the GOP. Please make sure future generations know we also had to defeat Dems like this 👇🏻

    Infuriating to hear Democrats parrot the opposition’s talking points. Most Americans surrender choice to an employer—& to insurers who profit by narrowing their networks & denying their claims. We need all providers in & coverage that can‘t be taken away.

    Few things have made my blood boil more this month than the outrageous and offensive LIE that is somehow anti-Semitic. Just gross. I never imagined people would pull this shit. He’s Jewish. He lost most of his family in the Holocaust. It’s utterly shameful.

    NYT: "Medicare-for-all, in which all Americans would get their insurance from a SINGLE government plan" is supported by: ✅81% of Democrats ✅64% of Independents ✅55% of All Americans But yeah, let's go with a bogusly worded Fox poll. It'll make Blue Cross & CVS happy. Sad

    A reminder that while a majority of U.S. House Democrats fight for Medicare for All, a corporate funded think tank purporting to represent Democrats will happily cite a negatively worded Fox News poll to try to crush the initiative 👇🏻

    The elites gobbled up the world’s wealth by making people believe in individual exceptionalism and the lottery of upward mobility. Their greed couldn’t even keep the ruse going. Change is coming for the people no longer divided. You see it in the streets.
    A new U.N. report argues many of the street protests popping up around the globe are driven by a growing sense that societies are rigged to favor the powerful — and trap the masses in low-wage, dead-end lives.

    One of the best attributes of is his ability to cut through the malarkey. He knows that the healthcare crisis won’t be solved with slick McKinsey-speak that’s designed to protect big donors’ interests & avoid guaranteeing health care to all.

    Stop.
    Campaign reporters, please ask Bernie when you get the chance about his apparent tolerance for the occasionally anti-Semitic indulgences of his surrogates and campaign staff. It’s important.

    I don’t want us to just go back to where we were before Trump. I want us to ask some hard questions that we as a nation rarely do: How is health care not a right in the richest country in the world? Why do one in six of our children go hungry? Why are 500,000+ people homeless?
