Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
Itβs not about what this country can or canβt afford.
Itβs about priorities.
Great sitting down with Brian Tyler Cohen to talk about everything from the courage we saw in Minnesota, to how Democrats can be true to our values and get stuff done, to how weβre building a community of changemakers at the Obama Foundation. youtube.com/watch?v=uI-hgSE5QIw
Not sure who needs to hear this but the voter fraud rate is a mere 0.000003%. Anyone telling you otherwise is making shit up so they can take away your right to vote.
Olympic athletes retiring at 28 while a slippery shower is a direct threat to 1/3 of the U.S. legislative body.

No wonder the orange toddler is unhinged once again.
The Obamas are competent, classy, loving, Harvard and Princeton graduates, loved by many, not on the Epstein files, got the Nobel Peace Prize, and gave us a steady economy to boot.
Repost this if you agree they are AMAZING and an inspiration!
If all these oligarchs named in the Epstein Files are totally innocent, surely theyβd be in favor of an independent investigation into Epsteinβs crimes.
Right?
Happy February! There will be live MLB games this month and every month through October.
So this administration has charged an independent Black journalist reporting in Minnesota but not two white agents who murdered two citizens

Ain't even mad about that loss. Hell of a game, incredible season. That CW touchdown pass to take it to overtime was an all-timer.
This team has something truly special brewing. π»β¬οΈ

Daily reminder from now until Jan. 20, the day of the nat'l "Free America" walkout, sponsored by Women's March. Find an event in your community and participate--preferably w/the largest gathering in your area. Large masses of protesters have maximum impact. www.womensmarch.com (www.womensmarch.com)
WHY are news stations reading DHS statements out loud as if they have ANY credibility at all? They literally murdered a woman in cold blood LAST WEEK and are still lying about what happened, even though we can see what happened. That any credibility would be given to their statement is insane
π¨BREAKING: "I'm only 14! I'm only 14!"
ICE agents arrest 2 teenagers in Minneapolis hours after an ICE officer shot a man in the leg. ICE attacks against protesters continue to escalate. LIVE NOW β¬οΈ
Trumpβs secret police are killing people in the street. People canβt afford rent or groceries. Health care is absurdly expensive.
When politicians take AIPAC money, theyβre telling you whose priorities come first, and it isnβt yours.
AIPAC wants to buy this seat. We canβt let that happen.

ITβS THE YEAR OF BLUE AND ORANGE BABYYYYYYYY
THATβS RIGHT
The most enlightening and disappointing thing to come out of this ICE shooting is that the right legitimately does not give a fuck about human life if it harms their political narrative.
Watching people malign a 37 year old mother for being murdered by her country is insane.
βGod damn them all.β
jason_whitman 5h Β© Threads Reminder: Darnella Frazier was 17 when she used her cell phone to document the murder of George Floyd. Her effort resulted in a Pulitzer Prize and helped in the conviction of Derek Chauvin. The videos) from Minneapolis today tell the truth. Keep filming. Right now, we need every citizen journalist available.
We understand the assignment.
Keep documenting. Keep sharing. Keep speaking out. π€

Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting "They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head." An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911
"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries. "We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.
You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.
