What will it take for healthcare for all to pass. We cannot be the richest most powerful nation on the planet and people can’t have simple access to healthcare. People are dying.

This ain’t The Apprentice—Trump can’t just fire Dems from federal labor boards like it’s reality TV. This is a huge win for democracy and workers’ rights.

We need to boycott all these companies in the same way target is being affected.

They will use these tariffs to price gouge and even if the tariffs are dropped again, you’ll be hard pressed to see them lower prices.

The people must recognize their power to affect change. Your money holds power.

I think this presidency is a scary reminder of something that has to change . One person should not have the ability to decimate people’s lives borderline unchecked.

A strong trade union movement improves the standard of living for all people.

There is a reason why we are the only major country not to guarantee health care for all or have paid family and medical leave.

We must grow the trade union movement in the United States.

Senator, I ask now. What is next? will congressional democrats stand up to tyranny? Will you get into “good trouble” and not so willingly allow this fragile practice in democracy wane further at the hands of these people. Will you have the courage to stand for the voices heard and unheard?

Surprise surprise they’re expanding and taking land in Gaza. All while kicking out Palestinians.

I wonder for the people that voted for the guy openly empowering this, thinking and saying he would stop? Where is that?

Oh we can’t forget about Ukraine either, refusing the ceasefire.

Sanders: Does anybody think it makes sense that we have a campaign finance system where one man (Musk) can put $270 million to get Trump elected and then his reward is that he becomes the most powerful person in government?

That is not democracy. That is oligarchy.

Medicare for All isn't radical.

What's radical is that we are the only major country not to guarantee health care as a human right. Every other major country figured out years ago how to provide health care to all at a much lower cost.

Please don't tell me we can't do the same.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Donald Trump preys off people feeling hopeless and being too scared to fight. I won't let Trump take away my hope or make me too afraid to stand tall and fight.

I continue to believe that if we fight for democracy we will win.

Despite Rubio’s grandfather’s “insistence that he was fleeing oppression, immigration officials raised suspicions that he might harbor communist sympathies…That charge, had they pursued it, could have led to a conclusion that he was a national security threat.”
