I am deeply concerned not just by the rise of cases of coronavirus worldwide, but by the inadequate and incompetent response we have seen from Donald Trump and his administration. 1/3
Today, HHS Secretary Alex Azar wouldn't guarantee that a coronavirus vaccine would be affordable to all.

Under the Trump doctrine, if you're wealthy you can buy a vaccine, but if you're poor or working class you may get sick or even die.

That is outrageous and unacceptable. 2/3
We need a vaccine that is available to all, not just those who can afford it.

Let me be clear: it has never been more important to finally guarantee health care as a human right by passing Medicare for All. 3/3

As a federal judge who overwhelmingly sided with corporate power and Wall Street, Brett Kavanaugh should never have been nominated.
Supreme Court justices are not above the law. Someone who sits in judgment over the nation should have the highest integrity.
The revelations today confirm what we already knew: During his hearing, Kavanaugh faced credible accusations and likely lied to Congress. I support any appropriate constitutional mechanism to hold him accountable.

Today, we remember the thousands of lives lost on September 11, 2001, and the bravery of first responders who put their lives at risk to save others.

The attacks began an era of endless war for our country and we must change course. foreignaffairs.com/articles/2019-…
In the nearly two decades since the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the United States has made a series of costly blunders that have not only weakened our democracy but also undermined our leadership.
Instead of staying focused on those who attacked us, the Bush administration chose to declare a global “war on terror” in order justify its 2003 invasion of Iraq, a country that had nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks. The war on terror has turned into an endless war.

Following the initial reports from China – and anticipating multiple agency aspects of U.S. government would need a unified command structure – on January 30th President Trump assembled a unified task force to coordinate all response efforts across the totality of government.
The task force is coordinated through the National Security Council. It is composed of subject matter experts from White House and several United States Government agencies, and it includes some of the Nation’s foremost experts on infectious diseases.

Journalist and peace campaigner #JohnPilger says there was “not a shred of evidence” to suggest #Iran was responsible and nobody should trust the #Trump administration.

Mr #Pompeo, without presenting evidence to support his claim, said his allegations were “based on intelligence
, the weapons used, the level of expertise needed to execute the operation” and more.

President Donald #Trump repeated the claims today during an interview with Fox News, alleging that a video proves Tehran’s guilt.

The video is said to show an Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps
boat approaching one of the tankers and removing an unexploded mine from its hull. But the ship’s Japanese owner contradicted the #US interpretation yesterday, saying footage showed something flying at the boat above the water line #Trump promised the US won’t “take it lightly.”

Trump's been roasting Congress since 1993 lol
the first half hehe

Trump has been the same person ever since he's been in public eye, and yet, the American people still elected him...

When will the Democrats learn?
1999 - Roger Stone talked about the decision of Donald Trump to form a presidential exploratory committee. He focused on Trump’s membership in the Reform party, & Trump’s agenda for his campaign.
