This is the most important election of our lifetimes. Vote early, and organize your friends, coworkers and co-students to vote as well.

Unfettered capitalism is Jeff Bezos growing his net worth by $13,000,000,000 in a single day, and still refusing to provide paid sick leave for all of his employees.

Against the wishes of state and local officials, unmarked federal agents in combat gear have invaded parts of Portland, Oregon. This is what a police state looks like. These troops must be withdrawn immediately. We must defend the Constitution. We must defeat Trump.

After Pearl Harbor, federal agents came to our communities and took people away to undisclosed detention centers, without word from them for months or even years. Some died there. It preceded the forced internment of 120,000 of us, mostly U.S. citizens. Be vigilant. #NeverAgain

So sad to hear that the singular, brilliant and vibrant, Sir Ian Holm has passed. Farewell, uncle.

Racial injustice goes far beyond police brutality. Black families have 1/10th the wealth of white families, over half of Black workers earn less than $15/hour, and Black families are much less likely to have decent health insurance. The fight for justice continues on all fronts.

Penguins in the Amazon?! 🐧🌴 Some of the penguins went on a field trip to meet other animals at Shedd. Wellington seemed most interested in the fishes in Amazon Rising! The black-barred silver dollars also seemed interested in their unusual visitor.

If there ever was a moment that showed us the need for all people to be able to get health care regardless of their income, this is that moment. Medicare for All now.

Republican are talking about bailing out the airlines and oil companies. How about a bail-out for middle-class and poor folks who can’t pay their medical bills? 🥺

Some are criticizing @BernieSanders for ACCEPTING @joerogan's endorsement. Rogan & his guests have said terrible things- including about me! But if we turn away everyone who's trying to agree with us we'll have no one left. No one is perfect, including those "canceling" everyone.

one of the most annoying things to me are the people who say bernie sanders didn't campaign for hillary in 2016 so i found video from every single event he did for her, stamped each with a date and location, and edited it down to about a minute and a half

As a muslim immigrant, #ILikeBernie because he has always stood up for me. His lifelong commitment to justice & peace inspired me to run for office. In Congress, I will stand with Pres. Sanders and champion his agenda of M4A & GND. RT + like + comment if you like Bernie too!

I woke up thinking about an old man I met in Stockholm, who asked me: "What happened to your country? You pulled out of the Paris Accord, you let anyone have a machine gun, your president spouts hate. The America of my youth won WWII and was a model to the world. What happened?"


Rachel Roderick reposted

Once again @BernieSanders brings up the homelessness crisis within first 20 minutes of #DemDebate. No one else talks about this. Tonight, more than 550,000 people will sleep in shelters and on the streets of the richest country in the world.


Rachel Roderick reposted

I also met with @BernieSanders before announcing my candidacy. We had a nice one-on-one conversation and I informed him that I would be running for President. In that meeting, he showed me the greatest respect and encouragement, just as he always has.
