- Bernie Sanders is running daily COVID-19 discussions, leading the fight for public health & stimulus measures that focus primarily on the people most in need, & raising money for charity. What has Joe Biden done over the past five days? And why isn't the media covering this?
- The first appropriate headline I’ve seen on Aaron Bushnell today is from Spain’s daily sports newspaper.
- Israel is not at war. Israel is engaged in genocide.
- Chuck Schumer wants you to believe both that he can’t do things when he has the majority because of the filibuster and that he can’t stop things when he is in the minority despite the filibuster.
- Elizabeth Warren did an awesome job - awesome - exposing Mike Bloomberg tonight. She also once again leaned in to absurd attacks on Bernie’s supporters, undermined Bernie’s Medicare for All proposal, and said she thinks it’s okay for party elites to override voters’ will.
- Democratic Senators are more united in telling Bernie Sanders that he needs to let go of dental and hearing benefits for seniors than they ever were in telling Joe Manchin he needs to drop goodies for oil companies or accept cash payments for families with children.
- Joe Manchin is bad. Neera Tanden is bad. Joe Manchin’s reason for voting against Neera Tanden is not very good. The fact that Joe Manchin is voting against Neera Tanden is very good.
- You know who has - unlike Schumer, Pelosi, or Biden - been fighting for robust cash relief for everyone this entire time? @BernieSanders.

- Someone threw a rock through the window of a Bernie office. The campaign responded: “We don’t know who did this. But we’re fighting for them too.” Someone spray-painted an accurate description of @MikeBloomberg on a board & his campaign is demanding an apology from Bernie.
- Number of states in which _________ has the most donors: Joe Biden: 1 (his home state) Elizabeth Warren: 1 (her home state) Pete Buttigieg: 1 (his home state) Amy Klobuchar: 1 (her home state) Bernie Sanders: 46
- Philippe Reines worked on the losing Al Gore campaign in 2000, the losing Hillary Clinton campaign in 2008, the losing Hillary Clinton campaign in 2016, and the losing Kamala Harris campaign in 2024. Why are you inviting him to opine on how to win elections?.@PhilippeReines with some tough medicine for his party @CNNThisMorning: He says being held hostage to the far left, that most Democrats he knows think the border is a problem & “males at birth” shouldn’t play women’s sports And he adds: “Again, I’m afraid to say something
00:00 - We’re in the middle of a pandemic, the sky is orange, and the leaders of the Democratic Party remain vehemently opposed to both Medicare for All and a Green New Deal.
