      I called, but I couldn’t hear the code he was giving me, so I have to call back later. Did you see on the MSNBC that Trump was trying to transfer top secret nuclear technology to Saudi Arabia? Does that imbecile not know that they were responsible for 9/11? Jesus, take the wheel.

    Will say it again…
    Obama care was the first expansion of the American Social Safety Net that DID NOT HAVE- in its design- the exclusion of swaths of the American populace.

    It took the John Roberts Court to do that.😒😒

    There can never be a truthful conversation about social programs like SS, Medicare, etc without tackling the racism that surrounded them during their initial passage (SS), or activism aimed at defeating segregation that helped galvanize its passage (Medicare).

    CNN has hired as “commentators”:

    * Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski
    * Trump campaign staffer and Putin image consultant Michael Caputo
    * Racist Jeffrey Lord who was fired only after he literally tweeted “sieg hiel”

    Of course they hired a Jeff Sessions operative. https://twitter.com/sarahkendzior/status/1097993350316212226?s=17

    Covered the DNC 16 and interviewed many Bernie Bros. Their main concern was TPP. I asked about Trump’s hostile racist agenda; they didnt really think it was important. On election night one supporter said, “Good Trump won. Now people will learn.” Worth mentioning all were White.

      So, Klobuchar doesn’t care that students graduate and are burden with overwhelming debt. College tuition and fees should be free.

    @regwag2003 @notcapnamerica People are still claiming that they didn’t vote for Hillary Clinton because “she didn’t have any detailed policies,” despite her website being full of them. People can’t come out and admit that a woman seeking a position of power bothers them, so they’ll invent any other reason.

      Twitter locked me out because I posted a nude picture of Ivanka. It pissed me off that the rightwing folks accused Malia of flaunting her body. I posted Ivanka’s picture and said at least she didn’t flaunt hers as Ivanka did.

        I’ll be so glad when Trump and his corrupt family are removed from the White House. They need to hurry up and do it. The longer they take, the more damage will be done and will be hard to repair. It’s a big mess, and I do mean mess. The damage he’s done already will linger for a long time. Trump has sold so many of our top secrets to foreign enemies. I believe he’s sold those immigrants’ children into human trafficking. The man is evil and crazy. He’d sell his mother for money.

      I listened to Amy Klobuchar last night. She tripped all over the “agenda for Black America” question. She mentioned something about criminal justice reform then headed toward the “economics is key”answer which is a cop out.

      I wish Lemon had come back with, “So, assuming someone is black and able to get into college and a promising career looms ahead, but a cop blows his head off for a minor traffic violation. Do you intend to face this reality or address it or even speak about it?”
