“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

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.

Watching the worst people in the country saying with a straight face that the BBC has a pro-Palestinian bias. We all watched the BBC invite guest after guest onto prime time shows to cheerlead for a genocide. This is gaslighting in its most egregious form.
