Joe manchin thinks the middle class needs its taxes raised? I doubt it
Shut up Bernie! I'm as old as you so I can say that! Wedgies are uncomfortable, look bad, and leave a distinct odor! Step back and speak softly and more in private for awhile or.....longer! BLM!!
Great interview! Senator Sanders speaks powerfully. Egalitarian progress and reform have momentum. Measures like making health care universal are every one's enlightened self-interest as it's virus control. But we want a social safety net; This spurs entrepreneurial risk-taking.
I don't see Republicans voting for anything the Democrats bring to the floor. The bipartisan is what the people want. I'm saying you have to satisfy your base, but you also have to get new people. I know its its not just Democrats hurting. I'm not hearing it.

I have a question about budget reconciliation: True or not that funding passed in this fashion has to be moved from existing programs? If so, how much can we hollow out existing programs that people depend upon to fund new programs? Is normalizing budget reconciliation --->>

"There is a lot of work being done internally," is the progressive white flag.
