Just so we’re ALL clear: the President of the United States made death threats toward sitting Democratic members of Congress.

But they’re always claiming Democrats are the dangerous ones, right?

Congress needs to work on real problems. One such problem is the nursing shortage. We’ve been short on nurses for years already. Boomers are retiring and there’s all kinds of probs with younger gens from “self entitled people” to those who desperately want to go to a university but can’t afford it.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.
