It’s amazing how often they don’t listen to lyrics - like the way they keep playing Springsteen’s Born in the USA

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

A school shooting occurs in Austria and the whole country observes 3 days of mourning. In the US it becomes a political issue

No need to apologize - my doctor told me they just don’t stop for a small percentage of women and I’m one of them.

When you’re telling you parents or grandparents they can’t eat or get medical care, tell them at least tRump gets to golf.

🚨 If the Senate bill passes a bill that includes these blatantly unconstitutional provisions, there will be no going back. The American Experiment will be over.

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves β€” strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security β€” we would likely consider it an act of war.

Nobody seriously believes that the world will be a better place when Bruce Springsteen is no longer part of it.

Nobody seriously believes that the world will be a better place when Taylor Swift is no longer part of it.

I cannot say the same thing about Donald Trump.

The 80-year recipe stoking America’s Prosperity:

1) Free-market capital investments in brilliant ideas…
2) enabled by Engineering Innovations…
3) based on Science Research in Universities…
4) funded by Grants from the US Government.

It’s time more people understood this.
