Here's the deal with Mitch McConnell. He doesn't care about the debt ceiling. He raised it under Trump. And he doesn't care about you. Only his power. Wielding it to hurt Biden and Democrats. People wonder why Americans don't trust Congress. It's because of people like Mitch.

3 dudes from Mar A Lago, one who ran Marvel Entertaiment, were put in charge of ‘overhauling’ VA, their only interest was in selling-off patient data. Vanky & Jared brought them potential buyers in Apple, J&J & CVS. She did this via her private emails. It’s barely made the news.

Last question of an interview today: Her: “So why did you leave the Republican Party?” Me: “When I was in Congress, I took an oath to defend the Constitution. I still abide by that oath.” Long pause. Her: “And?” Me: “And I couldn’t abide by that oath AND be a Republican.”

That there’s been some accountability re the opioid crisis should not lead anyone to let up on the vigilance necessary to spot and reject predatory behavior on the part of pharmaceutical companies. Their business model demands it & we need to remember that nytimes.com/2021/07/21/healt…

This is what an anti-democratic system looks like: 41 GOP senators representing just 21 percent of the country will block a voting rights bill from moving forward, even though it’s supported by 68 percent of the public, according to recent polling. bit.ly/3gYHs0H

Make no mistake—this is a pivotal moment in our nation's history. American democracy is at stake. The Senate faces a clear choice: Democracy or the filibuster—an archaic rule made by white male senators, to serve white men. The world is watching. And wondering. #DemandDemocracy

If @AOC and the squad don’t do what @jimmy_dore has suggested and withhold their vote for Pelosi for speakership unless Med 4 All gets brought to the floor for a vote... they will be revealing themselves. Power concedes nothing without a demand.
