   “Trickle down” policies made the rich richer at the expense of the poor and middle class.

   The pandemic has only made things worse—millions of middle class Americans falling into poverty.

   The wealthy should pay their fair share. https://t.co/hD0vFgkUZJ

    Love Congresswoman Underwood

    Since then Underwood fought tooth and nail for the American people and got the work done. So much so she had authored TWO bills that have signed by the President in 2020.

    I don’t understand why there isn’t more news coverage of this crisis.

    45 of America’s 50 largest corporations have turned profits since March while nearly 8 million Americans have fallen into poverty (the biggest jump in poverty since the government began tracking poverty 60 years ago).

    America is embracing social Darwinism.

    Wages subsidized by the government during pandemic:

    🇨🇦 – $2,000 a month
    🇯🇵 – Up to 100%
    🇳🇴 – Up to 90%
    🇩🇪 – Up to 87%
    🇫🇷 – Up to 84%

    Sure Pres. Donald Trump (& his party) completely abdicated any sort of leadership role, spread disinformation & actively hindered any sort of response, which almost certainly led to 100s of 1000s of death, but the important thing is that we do not blame him for 'creating' it. pic.twitter.com/qDxfVuPxee

      If the Trump Administration had handled the pandemic the way they should have, Trump might have been re-elected. But, of course, it was impossible given who they are.

      Well, Pfizer is an American multi-national corporation so we can call it American. And it really is a proud achievement for this country.

      I was thinking how we’ve been bombing countries into the stone age for the last 60 years.

      This is a nice change. Maybe the 21st century has arrived.

    “For security reasons, I really feel strongly that we should get them vaccinated as soon as we possibly can,” Dr. Fauci tells ABC about Biden and Harris. “You want him fully protected as he enters into the presidency in January. So that would be my strong recommendation.”

    Fauci is advising Biden but not Trump on when to vaccinate — the White House has “not asked me to give a comment on that position,” Fauci told us. “I'm sure they have enough good physicians at the White House to give them advice about that.” https://t.co/lLsP4TuwCA
