Black Sheep

Don’t follow the heard of politicians who care about the welfare of corporations above that of American citizens. Be a Black Sheep!

If you can give your CEO a raise, you can pay your workers more. Period.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

The issue w/ “elect 2 Dems for Roe” is it’s not clear that’s the #. We need to count votes.

Filibuster needs 51, but it’s not just Manchin & Sinema holding out.

💥What to do? CALL YOUR DEM SENATOR + ask them to CLEARLY support an abolished or talking filibuster.

Here’s how ⬇️

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

The American people are sick of airlines ripping them off, canceling flights at the last minute and delaying flights for hours on end. It's time for @SecretaryPete to fine airlines $55,000 per passenger for every flight cancellation they know can’t be fully staffed.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

We are not a democracy.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

I’m tired of Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema. I’m tired of leadership allowing their nonsense.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

“We have 48 votes to abolish the filibuster”

Prove it. Force the vote.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

STOP SEEKING BIPARTISANSHIP WITH FASCISTS.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

F*** the Supreme Court.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

NO DONATIONS UNTIL LEGISLATION.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

I hold the radical belief that the profits of a handful of oil companies are not more important than the future of the planet.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

Brilliant. It’s time to take the fight to them. Democrats can’t keep being the nice guy and play defense all the time. Democracy is on the ballot and we need to campaign like we give a damn.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

When politicians say there’s nothing they can do about an issue, that’s them telling you to replace them with someone who can.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

President Biden is right: The big oil companies must stop profiteering and bring down gas prices. But we need more than a tweet. It's time for the President to demand that Congress pass a windfall profits tax on Big Oil and use the revenue to provide rebates to consumers NOW!

[Lakota Man @LakotaMan1]

The fact that the police will shoot an unarmed Black man 60 times for a parking violation, while taking in a white mass shooter “without incident” is why, as an Indigenous man, — I’ll never ever feel safe, in my own country.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Today’s terrible shooting in Highland Park is the latest reminder of our nation’s deadly gun violence epidemic. Grocery stores. Schools. Churches. 4th of July parades. Places everyone should feel safe. Congress must do more NOW to protect our people.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

Victims of mass shootings should be able to sue gun manufacturers.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

A 10-year-old girl was denied abortion services in Ohio.

10.

So no, I’m not ok with the Democratic Party’s response federally simply being “vote in November.”

Residents in my state can’t wait till November and 10-year-olds can’t vote.

Here’s what they should be doing.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

Since the @StateDept won’t do their own independent investigation.

American media has, from the Associated Press, CNN, The Washington Post, and now The NYTimes, and they concluded that Israel is responsible for the death of 🇺🇸 journalist.

@ABlinken how does Shireen get justice?

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

Disgusting. The definition of evil. Putin has demonstrated repeatedly that he does not value human life.
