Shocking, I tell you, just shocking.
Biden on the 2020 campaign trail: "No more drilling on federal lands, period. Period, period, period." He just approved the largest drilling project being considered on federal lands. nytimes.com/2023/03/12/clima…

As president I would immediately cancel the Willow project. We’re either going to save the planet, or we’re not. Right now we are stealing from our grandchildren the right to safely inhabit this world. nytimes.com/2023/03/12/clima…

When it comes to helping citizens with student debt, the political class is full of excuses.  When it comes to bail outs for venture capitalists at SVB, there’s no hesitancy at all. We’re simply supposed to accept that a two-tier society is normal. A quick rescue for some, a slow tortured “Maybe we can help you just a little bit” for others. That is the system we must change. #disruptthecorrupt

The cost of insulin in the United States compared to other countries. The perfect embodiment of a system that sees human suffering and thinks “Great! Another profit center!” #Medicare4All
This chart is wild. @cameronghood, @annadeen2 and me on just how much more Americans pay for insulin than the rest of the world for @gridnews. grid.news/story/science/2023…

Americans have been trained to limit our political imaginations, to expect too little, to simply accept that life is an economic struggle for 80 per cent of our population ... and that somehow that's normal. It is not normal. And it's not necessary. It's the product of a 40+ year chapter of trickle down economics that will end if we decide to end it. #disruptthecorrupt

What about the hundreds of people who have thanked me for that book with tears in their eyes? What happened to the days when if a book isn't for you, it just isn't for you and you don't read it? I have to think about a book before I write it because if it doesn't fit someone else's idea of what is politically correct, then I shouldn't write it? What is this, the Chinese Cultural Revolution?? You want me to *atone* for my book because someone doesn't like it? If someone doesn't like my book, then it's not for them. I wrote the book in 2010 and perhaps some cultural trends have changed. I can see that. So be it. But no way am I going to address what you call the "harmful content and implications" of my book because the political correctness police don't think it lives up to their standards. I'm sorry. I hear your sincerity and I appreciate that. But I"m not going there. I can't. I won't.

The last thing I ever told anyone was that their disease was not real, or that they could simply will it away. At a time before medicine was even available by which to treat the disease, the one thing we could ensure was that no one would have to go through it alone, without food or without love.

Because they believe the lies or because they think only Biden should have a chance at the nomination?

We need to be tamping down fossil fuel extraction, not ramping it up. Approving Willow - much like his giving more oil drilling permits than Trump did - directly contradicts Biden's expressed concern that climate change is an "existential threat." Green energy investment in the Inflation Reduction Act is roughly 5% of the money we give to the Defense Dept., and Defense is the single largest emitter or greenhouse gasses on the planet. We need an emergency level just transition from a dirty economy to a clean economy. Saying how much you care about a problem while actually doing everything to perpetuate it is a road to disaster - for the planet and for us. #disruptthecorrupt theguardian.com/us-news/2023…
