Take a bow, Josh Miller-Lewis and digital team!

I don't usually do this but you're going to have to indulge me because I am so damn proud of the work that the Bernie digital/video/ads team did. They never ask for recognition but they deserve enormous credit for powering by far the most innovative digital operation in politics.

There is a video included so I’ll post it here

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said Thursday that he wouldn’t “drop dead” if President Trump decided to provide universal healthcare during the pandemic.
Sanders told MSNBC’s “All In with Chris Hayes” that Trump has “absolutely no ideology,” so it wouldn’t surprise him if he ended up pitching “Medicare for All,” without calling it that.
“You’re hearing it first right here,” he said. “He may not call it Medicare for All – I would not drop dead if in one form or another Donald Trump got up and said, ‘You know we’re in a terrible crisis. People can’t afford their health care bills. I think we should guarantee health care for all people.”
The Vermont progressive asserted Trump’s goals revolve around winning and enriching his friends, adding “he will say and do anything to do that.”
Sanders recommended congressional Democrats not promote “their 83-point programs that they often do” and instead push “simple, straightforward” plans to “let the people know which side they are on.”
The Vermont senator dropped out of the presidential race on Wednesday after concluding he wasn’t going to win the nomination. During his first interview since dropping out, he said the coronavirus crisis played a role in his decision because he wanted to help the working class through this difficult time.
“I want to play as good a role, as strong a role as I can in protecting the working people of this country during the economic collapse and doing everything I can to make sure that all of our people have the health care that they need right now.”

Thanks, I was just looking for this.

really great. Thanks.

But really, he could help the working people of this country a lot more as president imho. maybe not.

Yes, one would think.

One of Bernie’s great strengths is his candor. Which is why a empty statement like this is just a twist of the knife.

Susan Sarandon!

And into this

Damn it, Janet!

I hope to watch the whole thing again on Sunday. Almost as good as the London original.

That was great

Did you see this one? I enjoyed it in the West End in London 3 years ago.

Never got around to seeing Beautiful. Tapestry us one of the all time best

She plays so… beautifully.

FYI, she was in Bernie’s HS class of 1959 at James Madison High School in Brooklyn.

pretty sure she endorsed Biden pretty early on. Or one of the other ones.

Good on Sen. Whitehouse to press for answers. Still, it never ceases to amaze me how often members of Congress will vote for a bill without thoroughly reviewing it and then later express astonishment that scandalous provisions were included. https://t.co/JH1aDDMZfM

Oh man, I watched two Dobes do this very thing for years!! 🙂

🚨 Alert! CALL Congress to protect USPS! The trump KOCH led administration is attempting to shutdown the postal service this summer. This has always been a high priority Koch agenda item. Now, they may have the power to do it.
Be loud & persistent.https://t.co/hG57fuKNJm

A USPS shutdown is unacceptable! It's another form of vote suppression!
Raise awareness & sound the alarm! Reach out to inform local officials, local business owners, members of your community & local press. They may not even be aware that it's at risk! pic.twitter.com/VnVhNM2dWg

This is another reason why the Bernster suspended his campaign. Good thing, too.

I was just told from my doctor at a hospital in Miami that if someone dies from the virus but they have not tested them for the virus they are not listing them as a coronavirus death. This seems very suspicious. Are they trying to keep the numbers down for political reasons?
