This 6 min video released 4 weeks ago follows #BernieSanders rise to Presidential Candidate (x2) & then stopped (x2).

This 2nd time, someone personally stopped #Bernie according to video.

It’s ⬇️ self- explanatory 😔.

New coronavirus cases on Tuesday:

Germany: 279
Denmark: 10
Norway: 11
Sweden: 283

US: 60,000

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

No national testing program. No adequate production of protective gear. No commitment to a free vaccine.

As almost every major country sees the spread of coronavirus decline, America's infections are spiking.

Trump's incompetence is killing people.

Japan has less than 1,000 covid deaths. They never went in to full economic shut down. They have an unemployment rate of 2.6%. How did they do it? Virtually everybody wears a mask. Americans have no idea how fucking stupid they look on the world stage.

SOUND THE ALARM! Congress is trying to pass the EARN IT act, a bill that would lead to mass surveillance and censorship of the Internet, letting the government monitor and silence us. Sign the petition! https://t.co/lT16nKs8Cx via @idltweets

Abby Philip: “You’re saying that you never told Sen. Warren that a woman could not win the election?”

Bernie: “That is correct.”

Phillip: “Sen. Warren, what did you think when Sen. Sanders told you a woman could not win the election?”

Compare to Biden Tara Reade questions.

Jeff Bezos has seen his wealth go up by $34 billion since March 12th.

The least he could do is provide two weeks of universal paid sick leave and respect the right of workers to organize. I stand in solidarity with Amazon Workers International. https://t.co/ce1HZrneuY

I look forward to debating Joe Biden on Sunday night.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Today some 87 million Americans remain uninsured or underinsured. The absurdity of our health care system is becoming more and more obvious as we face the challenge of the coronavirus. We need Medicare for All.

[Levi Sanders @Celentra]

Bernard will be on the Jimmy Fallon Show tonight.

As was expected, @ewarren chose not to endorse @BernieSanders because she didn't see any political advantage or gain in it for her. The issues nor progressive movement didn't matter to her.

"She risks squandering valuable political capital"

"We are winning the ideological debate. We are winning the generational debate.

“In order to win in the future. You need to win the voters who represent the future of our country. And you must speak to the issues of concern to them."—@BernieSanders

-To end the absurdity of mass incarceration?
-Transform our energy system?
-To make sure all people can go to college?
-About millions struggling w student debt?
-To end the terror caused by inhumane immigration?
-Grotesque childhood poverty?

[Warren Gunnels @GunnelsWarren]

The time is long overdue for us to legalize marijuana and expunge past marijuana convictions.

“Policies that don’t challenge the status quo right now are incredibly dangerous… Bernie Sanders is not a risky candidate against Donald Trump. He is in fact the safest candidate.” –@NaomiAKlein

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Making health care a right.
Universal child care.
Guaranteed paid leave.
A livable planet.
A homes guarantee.

These are ideas that Joe Biden tells us are "pie in the sky."

I don't think it's radical to say that in the richest country on Earth, our people should live in dignity.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

I mean, as I note in the video, how has Biden gotten away with just straight-up lying about getting arrested trying to see Mandela, or about marching in the civil rights movement, or about his stance on Iraq, or war stories he's told. It's wild. Those aren't gaffes. They're lies.
