For desperate families to get $2K/mo - or even one time – that’s too much to ask of this Congress. But when the defense industry says to cough up $760B right away, right NOW, they’re like “Yes Sir! Right away Sir!” “Bipartisan support for our defense policy” my ass...

People talk about how the military keeps us safe. They don't keep us safe. The EPA, FDA, NIH, CDC, these agencies keep us safe and their budgets have been cut drastically over the last decades. Time to cut the military budget in half. We'd still spend more than anyone else.
They need to investigate the 911 lies that got us into forever wars. Then jail every political scum who votes for the patriot act based on the 911 lies . The M.I.C. hasn't kept us safe from a hack or a terrorist . #FreeAssangeNOW

Name names, Schumer is out here pretending like he fought hard rather than folded like a wet house of cards. @ him.
I just took to the floor again to demand a vote on $2000 survival checks. Sen. Thune (R-SD) objected. @SenSanders again demanded a vote on $2000 checks—and then on Sen. McConnell’s own bill. Sen. Cornyn objected (R-TX) for Sen. Toomey (R-PA). Democrats will not stop fighting.

Not Congress. Too much to ask of the Republican cult in Congress.

I would like to know why can’t they vote on one single issue? Like the stimulus? Instead of piling on pork products. This is of national security and importance. One issue, one vote. What a concept!
