.@BernieSanders ON FIRE on the Senate floor: "And now I find that some of my Republican colleagues are very distressed they're very upset that somebody is making $10-$12 bucks an hour might end up with a paycheck for four months more than they received last week...
Oh my God. The universe is collapsing. Imagine that"
"but some of my Republican friends still have not given up on the need to punish the poor and working people, you haven't raised the min wage in 10 years. min wage should be at least 15 bucks an hour, you haven't done that, you've cut program after program after program...
...and now horror of horrors for four months, workers might be earning a few bucks more."
Ya we can see why no one wants to debate @BernieSanders one v one.

.@AOC "And it's actually a fascinating progressive moment, because what it's shown is that all of these issues have never been about how are you going to pay for it. It's never been about whether we have the capacity to do these things or if the logistics have worked out...
...All of these excuses that we have been given as to why we cannot treat people humanely have suddenly gone up in smoke. And what has been revealed is that all of these issues were really about a lack of political will and who you deemed worthy to be in an emergency or not...
...Because to me in New York city, the highest rates of homelessness since the great depression has been in emergency for a very long time, and we have had to have been pushing for housing as a human right for a very long time...

#DearBernie "My name is Lauren and I’m an 18 year old believer in grassroots change to revitalize our democracy to humanity and stand up to the absurdity of our dehumanized political climate. More specifically, I am a believer in you. The day that Donald Trump was elected was....
... one of the most devastating and terrifying days of my life as a young woman in America. I vividly recall crying of shock that morning, “How could this be? How could a bully become our president?” Since then, for the past three years, I’ve felt more marginalized...
... and minimized as a woman than ever. I’ve felt silenced. I’ve felt belittled. But most of all, I’ve felt inspired to restore and revolutionize democracy in our nation. You have provided a platform for inspired folks - young or old, black or white, gay or straight, male or...

Did you know that nearly every Democratic presidential candidate made time to sit down with @AdyBarkan to discuss health care last year?

Except one.

Joe Biden didn't even bother to respond.
Not exaggerating one bit:

Ady isn't the only one. Biden didn't even fill out the CANDIDATE QUESTIONNAIRE FORM for @DemsAbroad

@JoeBiden claims he can unite, but he won't even make the case for Americans living abroad

Vote by March 10th: democratsabroad.org/primary #GlobalPrimary

@emrazz 1/16 So this is how I came to support Sanders - before he announced his candidacy he was not on my radar screen at all. Then, in late 2014, I started to see social media posts of his talking about individual issues like healthcare, income inequality, student debt, etc.
@emrazz 2/16 I was on FMLA leave caring for my mom. She was a lifelong Dem & champion of the underdog; her mom was a Suffragette. Caregiving is flurries of activity interspersed w/ long periods of nothing, I had blocks of time on my hands & I began copying and pasting Bernies posts.
@emrazz 3/16 I thought ‘this looks like a pretty interesting campaign platform’ & of course it was. I’m a lifelong Dem, but occasionally registered DTS & voted outside the party, so Bernie’s being an Independent was not a problem for me. I could relate, & I think a lot of folks do too.

Distinguished,

The fact that our dear country do not take responsibility for Nigerian citizens abroad is appalling.

In sane climes, such oversight will not happen; It is a show of dismal and embarrassing image for Nigeria.
Here is the link to a thread I wrote on a similar issue few days ago about whether or not Nigeria still has a NATIONAL INTEREST 🤷🏽‍♂️

Issues vital to national interest are captured under:

1. Primary Interest
2. Secondary Interest; and
3. General Interests.

However, I choose to be explicit on the secondary interest of a nation because it encompasses the crux of this matter.

1⃣ Let's take a look at how the Senate works. I've spoken to a decent segment of certain political persuasions to warrant a fresh look. At first, specifically be concerning voting procedures. #Senate ⬇️

#SchumerShutdown #SchoolHouseRock #BuildTheWall @DNC #WeThePeople
2⃣ Aside from Revenue(tax) bills, bills can originate either in the House, the Senate or both simultaneously. When the bill has been polished it goes to a vote. There are two primary types of vote & one that is considered a countermeasure. #Senate ⬇️

#SchumerShutdown @DNC
3⃣ Out of Roll Call, Voice Vote & Division Vote, Voice is most used. The bill is brought to a vote & Senators verbally call off 'Yea' or 'Nay'. The presiding officer mentally tallies the verbal vote as best they can & announces the results. #Senate ⬇️

After 73 5-4 wins for #Republican interests, Roberts and Kavanaugh step back from #74, despite other Republican appointees rarin’ to deliver. A new sort of “#Kavanaugheffect” in action after his toxic hearing display of partisanship. nytimes.com/2018/12/10/us/…
They're getting grumpy! #Republican Justices are jabbing Republican colleagues when denied the opportunity to deliver a win for the big right-wing donors. bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…
Never forget: under Roberts, they have given big #Republican interests 73 wins in 5-4 partisan cases. That’s why they’re there.
