How pathetic. While Senate Republicans tell us we can't afford to give $2,000 a month to the working class during the economic crisis, the COVID-19 "relief" bill they just released provides $161 million in corporate welfare to the coal industry during a climate emergency.

We all know that the USA maintains a socialist state for corporations and capitalism for the working class.

Yes bernie is poorly using whataboutism to equate $500 billion in 1 day with $161 million over many years.

Disingenuous. That comes from a bill sponsored by Joe Manchin (D). You might want to research it yourself.

Republicans need to be voted out just as much as 45. They are opportunistic enablers. They are soulless.😡

That helps with a lot of jobs. Which you don’t care about. Perfect indeed.

Marianne, the problem with Twitter is there’s only so many words to get the point across. You are saying that the encapsulation of the problem found in the U.S. Senate is Bernie Sanders himself. Is that right?

The last COVID relief bill D’s presented had *ZERO* for people or small business, it allllll went to states governments to bail them out of years of mismanagement.
