Update: here’s the video clip.
CA is now a vote by mail state.
Every registered voter will receive a mail-in ballot for the Nov election.
We’ll also provide safe in-person voting options.
The right to vote is foundational to our democracy. No one should be forced to risk their health to exercise that right.

The IL governor is pushing for the IL Leg to pass a vote by mail for the GE.
Benny’s Bar is open and you are also welcome to add jukebox YT’s for merriment in the comments. See you there!
Thank you Benny! I spent a lot of time this morning frolicking by myself in jcitibone’s great day thread and I’m happy to have a bit more time to finally catch up on your evening thread. I love you birdies!
It’s 08 min past the hour. Bernie is on All In. Topic: impact of COVID-17.
Bernie is talking about the Paycheck Protection Act, also $2000 monthly for Americans. Says Pelosi and Schumer aren’t totally against it.
If our Birdie krewe patiently organizes, we will wield some clout unlike OFA.
Go get ’em Brendan!!

these people complaining that Bernie is using his mailing list for covad relief andnot biden. so selfish
I suppose this is also selfish according to the DCCC.
My response if Byedones campaign contacts me I figure i’m not alone
Amen!
Me too. I found a donation request in my spam box. They called it “ridin with Biden.” I gave them the middle finger and unsubscribed.
Plus people on his list are way way more likely to give to relief than to Biden. Even Bernie voters who are going to vote for a Biden have much better uses for their $, especially during these times.
Biden already has his big donors all lined up. They will dictate his agenda. He only wants small donor donations so he can pump up the number of individual donors. You know, so he can look a little bit less like a giant corporate tool.
Oh yeah, they all think they own our votes, just like the Hillaroids.
And when they lose they will blame us for their rigging of the primary.
I have to wonder whatever happened to all of those claims of shifted votes in the Diebold machines…
What primary? A bunch of southern red states does not a Democratic Primary make.
The Sopranos have shown up.
AOC is right to be outraged.
Gottheimer is one of them.
So is my local bought Rep. Jim Himes.
Bribery talks and bullsh!t walks.

“Food for thought”
This is likely more of my personal interest, but Mrs. America is a pretty darn good series on Hulu. Wilmore is also more progressive than many in the talk show circuit.
