  1. How many years in jail would any other citizen get for having each one of those 150 documents?

  2. The federal government found 300 billion dollars to back stop wealthy account holder who made a run on our banks and held our government hostage. This 300 billion was found over a single weekend. We could have used that money to fund renewable energy or student debt forgiveness if those where equally important to our leaders as the wealthy account holders. It was never a lack of resources just a question of priorities

  3. Genocide isn't self defense
    28
  4. Netanyahu complained about BDS by saying everyone in all of Israel should boycott Ben & Jerry's. You can't make up this level of stupid.

  5. 17 years of oil wars in the middle east is enough of a track record to prove the USA has no authority to start another oil war in Venezuela. It is time we stop killing our troops for the profits of the oil industry and start building the new energy economy based on local renewable energy. Pass the green new deal and the off focial fuel act and employ Americans in our renewable energy economy. Instead of killing our sons and daughters in foreign countries fighting oil wars.

  6. Once more Mitch McConnell proves how he and the GOP are against democracy by refusing to even hold a vote on the net neutrality legislation.

  7. Jill Stein for ceasefire
    27
  8. I am waiting for the next reporter to repeat the same question when trump refuses to answer
    27
  9. ​@@FelixFederov war would imply that Gaza has a military with equal equipment to Israel and that Palestinians had a state with equal sovereignty to Israel neither is true. This is an occupation force committing genocide
    27
  10. Sad that we can only spend less than 10% of our military budget on saving the climate for future generations.
    27
  11. This is why we need to vote Marianne Williamson in the Democratic primary. We must demand better than a second Biden term
    26
  12. Thanks for covering the WHO building more vaccine capacity. We need to value lives more than intellectual property rights.

  13. Raising interest rates is just making it harder for the working class to afford things in the hope that the caplistist class will charge them less for those goods. This is class warfare and my class is winning - Warren Buffett
    26
  14. What good is a blind trust when the investment is in the ff industry? It doesn't take active money management for Joe Manchin to know his coal trust won't benefit from renewable energy.
    25
  15. Congress need to either hold Barr in contempt or dissolve as we no longer have a government with oversight but simply have a dictatorship which does whatever it wants above the rule of law.
    25
  16. We need Scott Ritter in the press room to tell him the occupation force doesn't have a right to self defense
    25
  17. The choice is clear in November vote Jill Stein or vote Netanyahu
    25
  18. Passing tax giveaway 2.0. The house just passes a bill yesterday which would add another 4 trillion or the 2 trillion dollar hole they already blew in the budget over the next decade.
    25
  19. One more reason why we need to switch to 100% renewable energy ASAP. Let them eat their oil.
    24
  20. Unions need to run a primary challenge againt any politician that voted to force them to take this agreement on the terms of management without the sick time. It is time for all of labor to stand together in the front line of the class warfare.
    24
  21. Voting for the ruling than claiming you don't agree. I didn't know you could have your cake and eat it too.
    24
  22. Yup if they want to take assets for 911 it should come from Saudi Arabia that is where the terrorists where from
    24
  23. The numbers on the vaccine vs income is what happens when caplistist society puts profit over lives
    24
  24. I am pretty sure you can make it 100%. I have known many wealthy CEO's who didn't have a clue what they actually do.
    24
  25. Time to electricity everything and use the defense production act to build 100% renewable energy
    24
  26. We have a global pandemic, millions of Americans facing eviction and the gop is worried about which kids are allowed to play sports. Yup sounds like identity politics at it's best.
    24
  27. I am pretty sure the unemployment clause Bernie Sanders got including covers independent contractors. That was the point behind mentioning the gig economy. Check out his video last night about the virus update.
    24
  28. As society moves toward authoritarian government it needs more policing forces.
    24
  29. Funny trump claimed he had a plan for healthcare during the campaign but 2 years with a GOP controlled Congress he could not pass his plan or even present it to the public. No one who is at all objective could believe that the GOP has a plan for healthcare. We have tried to reform the private sector healthcare system it is too broken we need to replace it with Medicare for All. Bernie 2020
    24
  30. So Congress can't fund a medical crisis in the USA but they can fund billions for weapons for Ukraine. One again never money to help the working class but always money for war.
    24
  31. The $100 billion that Germany is spending on the military would buy 128 Gigawatts of grid scale solar. Which would definitely remove the need to mine coal in Germany
    24
  32. Trump probably knew he should be quarantined before the debate became of his exposure to Hope Hicks he knowingly exposed Joe Biden and everyone else at the debate.
    24
  33. Well I do believe they don't consider contractors staff that is part of the problem with the US economy we don't consider gig workers at all.
    24
  34. Vote Jill Stein to vote against the duopoly of evil
    24
  35. Booster shots for the wealthy and no covid shots for the poor countries. This is what intellectual property rights and caplistist healthcare looks like
    23
  36. That oil pipeline company sounds like shell company I wonder who is the real parent company making all the profits. ExxonMobil Chevron?? It has to be one of the big guys because I have never seen a gas station with the names they are floating for the leak.
    23
  37. We need to have a movement at the voting places to pole everyone who is told they are not able to vote in the election so we have evidence for a class action court case on voter suppression.
    23
  38. The senate just needs to hold the vote on the reconciliation bill. Put everyone voting against it on the record and then put an ad blitz across the country calling them out for voting against every benefit for the working class in the bill including all the jobs for Americans. Then in a few weeks hold another vote. Keep voting until 2 of the 52 blocking the American public from getting things they need change their vote. Stop all military budget voting until it passes.
    23
  39. Try as I might I can't feel bad about the death of 7 nuclear weapons scientist killed by their own failed nuclear weapons. Let's just hope this is a warning to anyone else considering following in their footsteps. The development of new nuclear weapons should be considered a crime against humanity. We need to focus on developing renewable energy not nuclear weapons.

  40. Vote Jill Stein to end support for Israel
    23
  41. Biden's cabinet is showing us what nothing fundamentally changing looks like. Identity politics on the surface but neoliberalism where the real power matters. This is class warfare and my class is winning - Warren Buffett
    23
  42. Do you feel the same about Israel when they started genocide or when they attacked American military vessels in the past?
    23
  43. Michelle Obama things will get worse if we don't make a change in this election. Joe Biden noting will fundamentally change during my presidency. Yup we are screwed
    23
  44. Great just what we need the world bank run like a credit card company. What could possibly go wrong.
    22
  45. They got one member of the GOP to back the nominee now they don't need Joe Manchin. He must be pissed this morning.
    22
  46. Joe Biden to sunrise movement members "you should vote for Bernie Sanders." "You have the your man in Bernie. Joe Biden to Bernie Sanders supports " we share the same goal." I guess Biden should end his campaign it seems the only way for him to accomplish his goals.
    22
  47. If business owners like Donald Trump didn't hire illegal immigrants they wouldn't try to come here illegally. If trump wants to stop illegal immigration he should stop hiring and marrying them.
    22
  48. We have been geo engineering with every barrel of oil we pump out of the ground. Climate change is the result of our unintended geo engineering. They are correct that we need to replace ff with renewable energy and carbon sequestration is a good idea adding sulfur to the atmosphere is crazy we don't need more acid rain.
    22
  49. Any justice that feels criticism of the court crossed a line fails to understand the first amendment and has no place on the court.
    21
  50. I am pretty sure the unemployed black people would tell Elizabeth it was a recession not a sign of a coming one.
