.@MAUITIME firmly exposes the lack of democracy in the local election with the sidelining of an entire Congressional District because of a debate-phobic incumbent. #HI02

Read the caption below the photo
“... had been trying for more than a month to schedule a debate with 2nd Congressional District candidates, but Gabbard declined to participate. “

Of course Tulsi is refusing to debate now that she has an opponent.

Of course.
“Tulsi Gabbard pulled the same evasive maneuver in 2016, when she refused to debate her opponent, Maui democrat Shay Chan Hodges.”
voters: “Hey would you agree to a debate so voters can make an informed decision?”

Tulsi Gabbard: “Hahaha sorry, my schedule is all booked up 😏”

Bernie Sanders’s biggest challenge(s) for 2020:

Convincing people of color to vote for him
Convincing LGBT to vote for him
Convincing women to vote for him
Convincing moderates to vote for him
Convincing Democrats he didn’t stab Hillary in the back (he did)
Jane’s indictment
Bernie Sanders’s biggest challenge(s) for 2020 pt. 2:

He ****still**** doesn’t have any legislative accomplishments.

Russia interfered in 2015/2016 on his behalf, and he blamed Hillary (?)

There will be fewer caucus states in 2020

Minority Dem vote will increase
Bernie Sanders’s biggest challenge(s) for 2020 pt. 3:

Convincing voters to vote for him (Washington DC insider) and not a rising star in the Dem party (Harris, Booker, etc.)

Convincing voters to vote for an old rich white man

Convincing voters he’s better than Warren (he isnt)

Getting cancer in the U.S. (if you are not eligible for Medicare) is a horrific experience.

If you are <65yo and you have private insurance thru your job, then you would be covered.....unless you get laid off. Which would likely happen if you use up all your sick days for chemo
For cancer patients who end up doing multiple rounds of chemo:

1. You would use up all your sick days
2. You would lose your job unless you are able to work the minimum amount to maintain benefits (impossible for some types of cancer)
3. You'd lose your insurance
4. Then you would be forced to go onto disability, which can take 1-3 months to kick in.

AKA, you are forced to pay out of pocket for your expensive cancer treatment, right after having lost your job.

White ppl on the Far Left really do enjoy telling Black liberals that Kamala Harris “is a cop”.
I get the impression they believe
“all Black ppl hate law enforcement” so they call Kamala a “cop” bc they think the negative connotations will overpower common sense lol
White leftists call her a “cop”,
...I call her “one of the very few Black attorney generals”

Wouldn’t it be a better idea to encourage people from historically oppressed communities to get a seat at the table?
