It has been said before, but it bears repeating: the elderly who’ve worked their entire lives to get $800 a month on Social Security aren’t bankrupting America. It’s tax-evading billionaires like Trump who are bleeding this country dry.

"California paid in a lot more [to the federal government] than it got back — $83 billion in total. So did Washington state and much of the Northeast. Most red states were in the reverse position, getting much more from DC than they paid in return."

If you try to steal a loaf of bread, and hurt no one in the process, America will throw you in prison. If you try to steal an election, and hurt lots of people in the process, America with throw you a party, give you its most prestigious job, and millions of dollars to squander on your vulgarity.

The media is currently obsessed with only one shooting & his shooter while hundreds of survivors from all corners of our nation gathered on Capitol Hill last night to honor ALL victims of gun violence at the 12th Annual National Vigil. Please share to honor ALL victims. m.youtube.com/watch?v=0X9C...

Every time I read about banning books, I think of this: Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius. If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books — you're afraid of thinking.
