Why do we spend more on the military than the next 11 nations combined? I have a better idea: Cut Pentagon spending by 10% and invest it in the fight to end homelessness, hunger and poverty in the richest country on Earth. nitter.vloup.ch/i/broadcasts/1DX…

Because it’s a realistic number. Republicans don’t want to cut it all, moderates are hesitant as well.

It is called incrementalism. 10% increased cut every year for the next 10 years. On our way to your Department of Peace! Right Tio Bernie?
Replying to @marwilliamson
Because he has to get other people to vote for it. Duh.

Please help. Retweet if you can. BLM supporters are being threatened daily by these gun toting extremists. They brought rifles to a peaceful protest scheduled by our local blm. Only 15 showed up to brave the threatsThis was yesterday this is in Washington!

This is the Walla Walla police department they have an officer with a Schutzstaffel SS tattoo. This is the police chief holding a rally with hundreds to disrupt a scheduled peaceful protest of 15 people where they were threatened multiple times. #blm #racism #DefundThePolice

Because they won’t feasibly do any more than 10%

Cut 80% of military budget!!!
Replying to @marwilliamson
Come on, @marwilliamson. Bernie Sanders is not being modest; he’s being practical. I’d love the defense budget to be cut 50%, but I’m not a politician trying to get other politicians onboard with my plan.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Expand and increase Social Security and Medicare. 75% is realistic.
