    Really, the biggest, boldest idea (other than war) the GOP has proposed is A Wall. At this rate they’re gonna propose getting us to space w/ trebuchets. They constantly hate, but have 0 real solutions for income inequality, healthcare, climate crisis, racial injustice, etc.

    The median Uber driver takes home just $8.55 an hour. Last year, Uber paid its top 5 executives $143 million. Our country does not struggle with scarcity. We struggle with greed. Proud to stand with the Uber and Lyft drivers striking around the world today. ✊🏽

    Thanks, Senator, for promoting my piece. As a major contributor to Trump’s failed Latin America policy, your condemnation is particularly gratifying.

    Susan Rice, a major contributor to many of the failed policies of the Obama years wrote an op-ed today attacking ⁦Trump administration policy⁩ in Latin America Virtually every single point isn’t just wrong, it’s laughable
