    Guess which state votes on Tuesday? Michigan. And guess who got paid $200,000 to help re-elect Michigan GOP Congressman Fred Upton in 2018? Joe Biden.
  • "Nothing would fundamentally change" - Joe Biden
  • Money in politics is an "issue" -- in fact, it's a pretty huge one.

    No, Joe. The "establishment" are the 60 billionaires who are funding your campaign and the corporate-funded super PACs that are spending millions on negative ads attacking me.
  • Important "electability" stat: has now won independent swing voters in 13 out of 16 Democratic primaries/caucuses, according to CNN exit polls

    He tried to cut for the elderly. Pass it on...
  • And as I've said since the beginning, I'm never moving back to Washington, D.C., I have no interest in working in any administration, I love Colorado, I'm raising a family here. Please, move on.
  • "I cant stand the thought of Sirota having an office in the basement of the OEOB so I'm voting for the health care industry's candidate while thousands die because they can't afford medical care" is a take that I cant believe exists in the world, but alas, it does on this website
  • Climate change threatens all life on the planet. Joe Biden has proposed a "middle ground" climate policy. Nobody believes Joe Biden is serious about pushing a Green New Deal. If you pretend you don't understand why the stakes are so high, then you are telling on yourself.

    Congratulations to all those Joe Biden supporters!
     
  • The donut Twitter accounts that are angry that Bernie's campaign is led by former Democratic State Sen. are not angry that Biden's campaign is literally run by a longtime pharma lobbyist.

    As of today, Democrats in 16 states have voted & been asked in exit polls their view on replacing private health insurance with a single payer system. In all 16 states, more chose single payer. State-by-state numbers here 👇
     
  • Thoughts: 1. I wont apologize for spending months spotlighting the differences between Biden & Bernie. It hasnt been fun, but - win or lose - it is right. Voters deserve to know. 2. I'm inspired by the grassroots that has supported this campaign. 3. I'm proud of my home state.
  • Joe Biden has promised his billionaire donors that if he wins the Democratic primary, he will make sure that “nothing would fundamentally change” for them. That is absolutely unacceptable.
  • If you are offended by this obvious truism or can’t bring yourself to admit it’s true — then you are telling on yourself
  • A pair of bumper stickers on a car outside the Bernie 2020 party here in Denver — kinda perfect
