81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

SCOTUS is out of control. We must reform the Supreme Court. We can't move the country forward, SCOTUS consistently stabbing the American people in the back. #SCOTUSsucks

Schiff: "The president -- 'I'm going out to play golf.' One thing that is so shocking to me is that they're appealing to the Supreme Court for the right to cut off food from people. Who does that? Who works so hard to cut food from people who need it right now? The cruelty is part of the policy."

Ask him why so many air traffic controllers are retiring at once. Ask him if it has anything to do with Reagan firing 11K union strikers in 1981 and having to replace them all at once. Ask him how the mass firings this year will impact us the same way 40 years from now. Ask him, Jake.

Why does the Trump administration hate the poor and hungry? #FeedtheHungry

Why are we arguing over this? This is basic human decency!

Please explain to me why the Trump administration hates the poor? We need to do everything we can to help those who are less fortunate. I just don't understand. #SNAP

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

Sure seems that we should be helping people experiencing poverty and not punishing them for being poor.

Sure seems that Jesus wanted us to feed the hungry.
