  1. Since the FDIC is now insuring 100% of deposits the private sector banks need to have their insurance policy rate raised to reflect the 9 trillion dollars of formal non insured deposits the wealthy are demanding be insured by the FDIC. The wealthy need to pay for the federal depositors insurance they are demanding.

  2. The Republicans have one guiding principle. The ends justify the means. We know which ideology has also shared that principle. In history. It ends with genocide and suicide.
    58
  3. Research into a global pandemic should be open source. It is immoral to profiteer off a pandemic.
    57
  4. Unfortunately the current GOP is the direct result of the broken system. The lesser of 2 evils has resulted in the greater of two evils being allowed to fester and become more evil. We need ranked choice voting and more parties to end the duopoly of evil.
    57
  5. WHO is wrong the problem isn't blanket booster programs. The problem is in a caplistist society it is more profitable to limit supply to those who can pay the most. This is a supply problem caused by caplistist greed.

  6. I voted in New Hampshire we have paper ballots and I literally walked in and voted with no waiting. This is not complex it is voter suppression nothing else.
    57
  7. Someone should explain to Harris that genocide is not self defense
    56
  8. Katie Porter is a national treasure we need more people in government like her speaking truth to power.
    56
  9. The crime of speaking Spanish while shopping. What has the country become?
    56
  10. There needs to be a class action lawsuit against the state for this failure to have a fair election.
    56
  11. Every single police officer on the video in Buffalo needs to be charged as an accessory to attempted murder. The police are suppose to protect the citizens not endanger their lives. Stoping someone from helping an injured citizen has to be criminal when the police do it.
    55
  12. We need Congress to step up and start impeachment hearings. If trump can shutdown the government for his wall then simply exnore the Congress it is the end of democracy in the USA and the start of fascism. Dictator trump needs to be removed from office.
    55
  13. Amazing how fast Congress can work when it doesn't involve helping the working class
    54
  14. The police officer who pulled a gun on an unarmed citizen trying to clean up trash on his own property should be charged with a hate crime not given a paid vacation.
    54
  15. Classic pattern of abuse. The victim has become the abuser in the next cycle
    54
  16. Everytime Rand Paul opens his mouth I have more empathy for his neighbor
    53
  17. Time to end the filibuster and pass national vote by mail. With a national holiday for rank choice voting. Every single American should have a day off to take part in our democracy every 2 years. One paid day off every 2 years isn't too much to ask of the barrons of industry.
    53
  18. One thing is for sure the officer asking if this was target practice or if the police shot their own didn't feel threatened by the protestors sitting in the trees.
    51
  19. Odd that Thomas didn't want to overturn the ruling on interracial marriage. Oh right his wife approved of that ruling based on the same basis.
    51
  20. Sounds like Russia got IDF training videos.
    50
  21. High intrest rates will not end corporates from price gouging. Only taxes and government regulations can stop the caplistist class greed
    50
  22. If money is free speech why isn't tearing down a statue?
    50
  23. Call the people shooting protesters for political reasons domestic terrorists it is what they are.
    50
  24. Someone should ask Susan Collins if she is still sure trump learned his lesson from the impeachment process? Is she still proud of her vote to keep him in office so the voters could decide his fate?
    49
  25. Rand Paul must be outraged at the right wing armed terrorist who have said the government should be afraid of the citizens. The people who claim it is their second amendment right to take their weapons into government buildings to send a message to the governor. Oh wait he wasn't at all worried about that. He is only triggered by unarmed civilians protesting the police murdering citizens in the streets.
    49
  26. The corporate take over of the American justice system is now complete
    49
  27. America always money for the military industrial complex never money for citizens. If Congress represented the citizens there would be a veto proof majority voting for Medicare for All. But instead they represent the military industrial complex who bought them.
    48
  28. It is tragic that political leaders in the USA and EU are focused on new sources of ff without mention of increasing the transition to renewable energy.
    48
  29. We need Medicare for all to address this and all other health issues
    47
  30. Just image what the Democratic party would do if Bernie Sanders had done a write in campaign. The double standard is showing in Buffalo today.
    47
  31. There is a 911 call to the police during their home invasion. No one would call 911 to report the police breaking into their home if the police identified themselves.
    47
  32. Trump's threat of murdering the whistleblower is a direct violation of the whistleblower protection act. One more crime to add to his articles of impeachment.
    47
  33. 6.5 billion dollars spent on war that could have been spent at home here in the USA.
    47
  34. Just tell the candidates on national TV that their mic will be turned off during the 2 minutes of uninterrupted time. If they don't like it let them walk off the stage on live TV
    47
  35. When the government throws their hands up in the air and walks away from the 3rd largest killer in society it definitely doesn't have the health and wellbeing of society as it's first priority
    46
  36. 40 billion for war in Ukraine Congress can with bipartisan support afford that. 20 billion to end homelessness here in the USA all we hear is how could we afford that. We need to politicans who share our priorities.
    46
  37. AOC if it is against US law to supply weapons where is the enforcement of that law by Congress? You could impeach the president wbo has twice bypassed Congress to as you have said break the law.
    46
  38. Time for the Democrats to end the filibuster and pass legislation to make Roe the law of the land. They have literally delayed doing this since 1972. The time for delay is over Congress must act
    45
  39. Another $674 billion dollar for the war machine but the GOP wants to cut Medicare Medicaid and Social Security because they spent all the money on war.
    45
  40. Joe Manchin is what any blue will do gets you. So thanks to everyone who said any blue will do. It you don't stand for something you will fall for anything.
    45
  41. Congress couldn't stop the working class from getting kicked out of their homes in a pandemic but they could give the military industrial complex 29 billion dollars more than the president requested for them in the budget. This is a problem of priorities not resources
    44
  42. If Bill Barr doesn't know it is illegal to vote twice in all 50 states he needs to resign because he is not qualified to hold his job.
    44
  43. I think I will just stay home and cook dinner myself instead of going to a restaurant which needs to be a quarantine zone.
    44
  44. Wow how does a senator not know when the national election is? That should be a level of incompetence that is grounds for removal.
    43
  45. Thank you Congresswoman Porter. We need more people in Congress fighting to protect the citizens not the corporations.
    43
  46. Anyone knowing exposing others to covid will be considered a domestic terrorist - William Barr Time for the FBI to arrest the president before he his terrorist attack this weekend. Per William Barr's own statement.
    43
  47. I love how AOC calls out the inability of the GOP to even read the GND.
    43
  48. This is what intellectual property rights and caplistist healthcare looks like. More shots for the wealthy while the poor become variant breading grounds for lack of their vaccination. There is no place for a profit motive in healthcare
    43
  49. Millions dieing is just the cost of intellectual property rights. Now we know how far the caplistist class will go in class warfare to protect their profits
    43
  50. NYPD needed to arrest the two officers who drove over citizens and charge them with the same charges used against the Nazi's who killed Heather Higher with their vehicle. The courts have already proven that you are not allowed to murder protesters with your vehicle. The police need to follow the same laws all citizens follow.
