Thank you @KillerMike for the the uplift on @TheRealDaytime. When you called me this generation’s Shirley Chisholm my skipped beats. Her unbought & unbossed spirit informs me. The fight for justice is forever & I am honored to be in that fight!

And. How dare you use the graphic description of the “slaughter” of Black teenagers to deflect from your shitty policies.
You’re full of it, Pete.
Nina Turner Retweeted
Ok.
Let me tell you about this guy named @BernieSanders who has raised more money than any other candidate including raising $33 million more than Pete.

I stand with Senator @ninaturner. She does not back down. She does not waver. I have been continuously inspired by her voice and we as Americans are better for it.
Nina Turner Retweeted
In that case I have exciting news: Bernie Sanders has raised a lot more money without courting billionaires in wine caves. #DemDebate
Nina Turner Retweeted
Buttigieg uses a lot of words to defend an indefensible system of funding campaigns, one that has led to terrible inequality, suffering, the dominance of billionaires in our politics.
That's what he was doing, saying billionaire-funded elections are *inclusive.* #demdebate.
This is a country w/more billionaires than any other nation. We also have most child poverty than every other major industrialized nation. That's not an accident. It's by design. It's called a rigged system &that's why the Billionaires are united against our campaign. #DemDebate
Nina Turner Retweeted
. @DrDooleyMD makes a powerful impact on these future leaders and newest @BernieSanders supporters! #SC
When nearly 8 in 10 workers live paycheck to paycheck, poverty is not some abstract concept. The American People need to hear from all the candidates on how to confront this moral crisis. That is why we stand with @RevDrBarber to call for a national debate on poverty
#DemDebate
We are earning Black votes in SC. Anyone who feels they’ve got a constituency’s on lock needs a history book!
A candidate’s record matters. Who @JoeBiden kept close & who he praised matters! I said what I said & I’ll say it again.

Nina Turner Retweeted
EVERY SINGLE WORD @NinaTurner said about @JoeBiden in her op-ed in South Carolina was true.
All of it.
The Mayor ignored the question bc he has little to stand on. I almost thought I was listening to another Mayor running for President. The truth is Pete ignored the Black community in South Bend until he decided to run. We are not a talking point. I'll pass on that!
#DemDebate
Good God man, answer the question. .@PeteButtigieg was the mayor of South Bend not a member of council. He deflected like hell. #DemDebate
A beautiful thing about our campaign is its ability to inspire new voters. That’s a true 50-state strategy. That means we can win in places like Texas and Arizona. Non-voters are the biggest voting bloc in the country. @BernieSanders will change that!
#DemDebates
Nina Turner Retweeted
I'm curious that @PeteButtigieg said NOTHING about taking on the pharmaceutical industry in combatting the Opioid Crisis.
This is what a corrupt political system does. When your donors shield you from reality, it limits us to only nibbling around the edges.
#DemDebates
.@BernieSanders is running for president to end the epidemic of gun violence in this country. Believe me when he says we will take on the NRA, expand background checks, end the gun show loophole and ban the sale and distribution of assault weapons.
#DemDebates
I have an idea. The most straightforward path to beating @realDonaldTrump includes nominating the candidate viewed as the most honest and authentic.
Bernie beats Trump.
#democraticdebate
Remember when @BernieSanders won the @DemsAbroad primary in a landslide? What if we took a clue from the voters most impacted by our foreign policy. They know our leadership in diplomacy must be restored. They trusted him then and that’s why I do today.

NEWS: In interview w/ @StatusCoup, @ninaturner blasted @dnc for trying to water down #IowaCaucus votes from satellite caucuses where Latinos/Muslims/African Americans voted (for @BernieSanders). Also called it "intentional" to hurt Sanders.
Video to come... #DemDebate
.@JoeBiden sounds pretty confident about his foreign policy chops. But both he and @BernieSanders saw the same evidence that Rumsfeld and the war machine used to lead us to a disastrous war. Only one of them refused to put our young men and women in harm's way.

When I ran for Congress we won a seat that had been Republican for decades. I passed more amendments than any member from 1995 to 2007. #DemDebate

.@JoeBernie : *hugs Bernie*
"I like Bernie just fine" @amyklobuchar
We're all in this together, y'all
#DemDebate
"I passed more amendments on the floor of the house in a bi-partisan way than any other member of the house."
I think that's why they called him "Amendment King"
Where does @BernieSanders hide all them receipts #DemDebates
I hope the moderators of the #DemDebate are going to ask every presidential candidate if:
1. They can get their agenda passed by a Republican Congress and
2. Who likes you?
God help us with these elementary school questions
Nothing (or anyone) will divide our party from defeating the most dangerous President in modern history. We won't fall prey to our detractors.... and yes, @BernieSanders is very likable

Evergreen Tweet
“You can’t change a corrupt system by taking it’s money.”
#DemDebates
The working people's agenda transcends party lines. Sen Sanders is right-the way you bring people together is by centering the needs of the 99%. The establishment is afraid BC they know our movement is grounded in their reality, not in the homes of Billionaire donors
#DemDebates
.@JoeBiden & @PeteButtigieg’s middle ground illusion is less efficient that M4ALL. It also creates a tiered system where for-profit insurers skim the healthy and young while the “public option” becomes a second rate, means tested plan for the poor and the sick.
#DemDebates
FDR talked about healthcare as a human right. So did Truman, Kennedy, Johnson, Carter and Obama.
Why are we the ONLY major country not to guarantee universal health care?
I would urge you to look at who funds our electoral system.
#NotMeUs
#DemDebates
The media and the pundits would like you to believe the difference between the candidates on stage is minor, but there’s a BIG reason why Billionaires are teaming up against ONLY one candidate.
@BernieSanders has a movement!

Once again, @BernieSanders was right. @PeteButtigieg was energetic and competitive enough to recruit more billionaires than @JoeBiden. Congrats, Pete! I know you’ve dreamed of this day since childhood! #PetesBillionaires

Michael Bloomberg has:
- A net worth of $61.7 billion.
- Spent more than a quarter billion dollars on tv ads.
Michael Bloomberg is an oligarch and a Republican &
we will not let him or #PetesBillionaires buy this election.

REMINDER: @PeteButtigieg touted Bernie's Medicare for All plan -- then #PetesBillionaires gave him cash & Pete suddenly started attacking the same plan.
This story tells you exactly who Pete answers to.
(hint: it's not you, unless you're a billionaire)

THIS HAPPENED ---> The New York Times reported that @PeteButtigieg personally attended a secret meeting of big donors as they formulated plans to try to destroy @BernieSanders.

You can be on the side of the billionaire class or you can be on the side of the working class, but you can't be on the side of both.

The moderators are actually spending the first 15min attacking Bernie Sanders. Lol their bias is blatant. They couldn’t give a shit about people going bankrupt and dying over health care costs, people working 3 jobs, the insane cost of housing. #DemDebate

Contrary to what the people on stage will have you believe, @BernieSanders is the candidate Trump is most afraid of. Why? BC we are the campaign with a the movement that includes working people from all backgrounds.

Hey, @chucktodd, as a colleague, we should talk. This was the twentieth-century conversation about billionaires. There is a twenty-first-century one, and it’s worthy of your attention and reporting. We are no longer under the old illusions.
