Too many people believe that corruption, once exposed, should be "gotten over", forgotten, that people should just move on, that to keep mentioning how @RepThompson voted to allow more poisons in our waterways or how our Supervisors voted to allow deforestation or even how...1/3
the DNC rigs primary elections, giving us a choice between corporate rule and fascism (essentially the same) is just "being negative", that we shouldn't name it.

I like positive messages. I like hearing that someone wants to close the camps on the border or to stop...2/4
bombing people. But as long as we have corrupt officials in office, who have worked for death & destruction to line their own re-election coffers, it is imperative that we continue to name it, again and again. Allowing the public to forget that the reason substantial change...3/4
on crucial issues doesn't come is because those officials have taken pay-offs to work against the people is to support oppression.

Paying elected officials to work for corporations instead of the people is like poaching employees at their workplace.

I am so horribly disgusted at the reports I'm hearing of mass numbers of sexual assaults and then mass numbers of forced hysterectomies in the border camps that Latino refugees have been locked in, and frightened for the future of our country if these stories are true. 1/7
Unfortunately the news has become so partisan, and so rarely in agreement, that it's hard to know what's true and what's not.

I'm glad that there is going to be an investigation into these crimes, and if these stories are NOT true then whoever is making them up should be... 2/7
cast out of media or politics (including corporate lobbying) and have to clean toilets at a middle school.

"So vote for Biden" I hear you call. The problem is that he and Obama are the ones who built those camps and he's never said, even once, that he would free those... 3/7

In 2016 almost 92 million people didn't vote at all in the general election. Almost 66 million voted for Clinton, almost 53 million for Trump. Only 10 million TOTAL voted for a third party or independent.

Of those 10 million people, almost 4.5 million voted for the... 1/10
Libertarian, almost 1.5 million voted for the Green candidate, 732,000 voted for Evan McMullen, 200,000 for Darrell Castle and 74,000 for Gloria La Riva.

To blame Donald Trump's election on the 1.5 million who voted for @DrJillStein , without getting into all of the... 2/10
factors of Clinton's campaign, is completely illogical, even if the 2016 primary hadn't been rigged, which it was.

The rigging of the 2016 primary was evidenced by the forced resignation of 3 consecutive DNC Chairs for cheating, by the incoming DNC Chair @TomPerez , by... 3/10

Joy Reid made some #Islamophobic comments on Monday's show. She said that Trump uses violent language like leaders in the Islamic world. While it's true that some leaders use that kind of language, it is an ugly, intolerant generalization.

Joy Reid deflected criticism, on...1/6
her morning show, saying that it's only a morning show, she's not a real journalist. Since she's not a real journalist, by her own admission, she has no business hosting an evening show. I am calling on #MSNBC to fire Reid, who is a propagandist.

And I'd like to address... 2/6
the idea that Muslims teach their children violence, because I've heard it an awful lot. And I think people let it slide when they hear it. In the United States, children start watching super hero shows and shows with fighting around 8 years old or so. By 10 or 12, most... 3/6

#MedicareForAll has been a Democratic Party issue since FDR. It will save us money in healthcare costs, not cost extra, and it will cover every single person. Single payer plans are working throughout the developed world. There is NO REASON the Democratic Party or any 21st...1/9
century nominee should be opposing it. None.

When Democrats tell you that you should NOT hold out for @JoeBiden to offer the left Medicare For All (and he has offered the left NOTHING), that "we can push Joe left later", they are asking you to surrender. NOW is the time a... 2/9
nominee should be reaching out to the other parts of the party, not AFTER the election. He will not be pushed left later.

Most Democrat voters support #MedicareForAll, but the party leadership does not, because they are corrupt. So corrupt that they refuse Medicare For... 3/9

Why would the #DNC tell Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes that she may not get a chance to speak, and then allow her only 60 seconds, but allow Republican John Kasich a full speaking slot? The Democratic leadership, totally corrupted, loathes progressives, loathes the left.

That's why Democratic primaries are rigged, it's why so many establishment Democrats would have voted for Trump if Bernie had won the nomination, it's why left-wing media like The Young Turks can't get a press credential at the Democratic Convention, but had no problem... 2/11

Remember when @KamalaHarris ended her cosponsoring of #MedicareForAll because she realized it would be bad for her career?

Remember when Kamala attacked @JoeBiden, during the first debate, as a racist? And then, when asked about it later, said... 1/6

"It was a debate!" repeatedly, as if we were supposed to have assumed all along that whatever she said didn't mean anything?

Those two scenarios tell you everything you need to know about Kamala Harris. She's a 1 term Senator that hasn't had to do... 2/6

anything in her 1 term except oppose @realDonaldTrump , and she hasn't even done THAT well, because she keeps voting for military spending bills, the space force, mass surveillance, she didn't even support the Sanders amendment which would have... 3/6
