        How is it possible marijuana isn't yet legal on a federal level!? This is such low-hanging fruit for a presidential candidate to run on in 2020. This isn't even a partisan issue, there's just some old grumps holding us up.

        Yeah and for now it’s Sessions but we won’t have to worry about him anymore. He will be fired after the midterms. Just not sure if we will get someone that’s actually worse then Sessions.

        Of course she gets it. I think she has been getting it for a while now. She would definitely get my vote and would knock on doors for her.

        She's suggesting the means to curb racial injustice is to eliminate the law rather than fixing how enforcement is executed. Will she legalize rape next?

        #Attica - I just finished reading Blood in the Water about the Attica uprising in 1971. We are WORSE off today than almost 50 years ago regarding basic human rights and mass incarceration. #CynthiaForNY

        She also criticized Cuomo for saying America has never been great. So apparently she doesn't get it all the way.
