This week the House is expected to vote on H.R. 2021 giving Trump's Pentagon nearly $1.5 trillion over the next 2 years. The DoD can't justify this budget because it can't pass an audit. Who will stand up to the military industrial complex & vote no to defeat this bill? 1/12
The Pentagon’s budget has already been increased by $165 billion over the past two years – more than the entire military budget of Russia. Meanwhile, Congress keeps appropriating money to buy warplanes and other weapons systems that our own generals tell us we do not need. 2/12
We spend more on the military than the next 10 countries combined, many of which are our close allies or strategic partners. In fact, we spend more on the Pentagon today than during the height of the Vietnam War, the Korean War or the Cold War after adjusting for inflation. 3/12

Why is the healthcare lobby against #MedicareForAll? Follow the money. Their top 65 CEOs made $1.7B in 2017 including:

- $83.2M to UnitedHealth's CEO
- $58.7M to Aetna's CEO
- $43.9M to Cigna's CEO.
They'll stop at nothing to keep their gravy train. 1/14 nyti.ms/2NoseTj
While the big drug & insurance companies have the money, we have the people. 70% of Americans want to guarantee health care to everyone through #MedicareForAll, while Americans dislike healthcare companies even more than Wall Street. 2/14 nymag.com/intelligencer/…
Healthcare lobbyists are trying to use the same scare tactics against #MedicareForAll today that Reagan used in the 1960’s to try to defeat Medicare. They were wrong then and they are wrong today. 3/14 thinkprogress.org/flashback-repu…

#BernieSanders has gone out of his way to hire some of the most hateful, divisive, hacks in leftist politics. Hire after hire has a long record of spewing right wing talking points re: Hillary in 2016 (they scrub their timelines, but folks kept reciepts) 1/
They have denigrated and belittled the Democratic Party at every turn, even going to so far as to create "establishment hit lists" that contain the names of Democratic representatives they deem impure, they've protested Pelosi and DiFi 2/
and, to this day, they derisively spew "Bernie would have won," in our faces and yet, they expect us to unite behind Bernie. Or rather, they *demand* we unite behind Bernie. While other candidates and the DNC have gone out of their way to pander 3/

Democratic lawmakers in swing districts are distancing themselves from $15 minimum wage proposals. But a new poll finds voters in those districts support a $15 minimum wage by a 30-point margin. washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2019…
In the 57 districts a Democrat won by less than 15 points in 2018, @BobbyScott's Raise the Wage Act is supported by...
89% of likely Democratic voters
46% of likely GOP voters
65% of likely voters overall
washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2019…
Voters in those districts say a lawmaker voting for the act would be more likely to get their support: 37% said a vote for the Raise the Wage Act would make them more likely to support the lawmaker, compared to 21% who said it would make them less likely.

#BernieSanders has announced his run as the oldest person ever to run for president.

Sanders has spent the time since he tried to subvert the will of the voters by claiming he would contest the 2016 convention slamming Democrats & the Dem base.

Where is the fox/henhouse emoji?
Three of the 6 women candidates running for the Dem nomination have a more progressive voting record than Sanders, with Warren and Gillibrand proffering seriously progressive legislation for women and families that bests Sanders.

We have better messengers for Sanders' message.
This comprehensive interview with @NYDailyNews is still the litmus for Sanders. Read the transcript. He's had three years since to fill in the gaps.

He has not.

It is imperative we expose the ongoing #GOP narrative that uses Leader Nancy Pelosi as a lightening rod for misogynistic, ageist and partisan attacks and what motives and attitudes lie behind it. /1 #IStandWithNancy #GOPLies #DemocraticPrincipledLeadership
In order to get at that truth, it is vital for voters to meet Nancy Pelosi, understand her background, accomplishments and values as well as her vital importance to the Party of the People./2
Nancy Pelosi has consistently put her constituents first and foremost and as Speaker and Minority Leader she has served all Americans with the same commitment and intensity./3 #PrincipledDemocraticLeadership #IStandWithNancy
