Reminder of what people are calling the “radical, extreme-left agenda”:
✅ Medicare for All
✅ A Living Wage & Labor Rights
✅ K-16 schooling, aka Public Colleges
✅ 100% Renewable Energy
✅ Fixing the pipes in Flint
✅ Not Hurting Immigrants
✅ Holding Wall Street Accountable
James...
It's all radical and extreme when you don't offer a tangible way to pay for any of it... We are running deficits with a budget that only includes less than $700 billion in discretionary spending.
Add up all of AOC's suggestions and $700 billion turns into $2 trillion really fast... all while the cost of entitlements are still skyrocketing.
We have nobody wanting to fix the trillion dollar deficit gap today that will only increase as entitlement spending continues to grow...
So yeah James... it is EXTREMELY radical, OVER THE TOP extreme, and certainly far left to suggest we can just drop another couple of trillion a year on fantasy projects (while not fixing the deficit problems we have).
It would be like someone who has more bills than income... suddenly declaring that the want to buy a brand new BMW because they "want to". Nobody would loan you the money to buy the car, and I wouldn't lend Ocasio-Cortez a dime for any of her silly plans.
Well, all I know is this:
Social Security should be made to work. Eisenhower said it was time for the GOP to realize it was here to stay and then work of make it solvent and even more helpful to our people.
Many countries in the world today have medical care systems that work far better for them than ours does for us, at far less expense. They are rated among the happiest nations of the world. So why is it that excessive profit taking keeps our system from being more beneficial to our populace?
Democrats reject yet another woman as thier Parties Nominee .

Jane admits SS is not working.
Really, how so and why.
it is funded by Today's workers, is the payroll tax too low?
Where is your fix James?
Social Security should be made to work.
SS was addressed in painstaking detail by simpson/bowles. remember them? they laid out a path to solvency for SS.
and your dear leader skeets 0linsky dismissed it out of hand.
so there you go, pederast.
I can wait to see the Pay roll tax for Medicaid For All.
7 %, 8%, and ⬆️
Don’t forget the state of apoplexy the left went into when W wanted to allow us to direct 2% of the funds
Ideology is the biggest problem with the medical care solutions. The Republicans are again trying to get the Social Security system to be privatized. W tried to that approach.
The Democrats have a lot of different ideas. But to pay for the Medicare for all is not going to happen. But it should be available to anyone who doesn't have a employer's license medical insurance coverage.
I would love to see a landslide for the Democrats and maybe just fix The ACA.
A repeal of the Republican tax cuts would almost pay for New Great Deal.
Ocasio-Cortez is a first term congresswoman who has no leverage to pass the bill she would support.

The Democrats in the Senate trial won't be able to depend upon the Chief Justice Roberts.
When the Senate impeachment trial of President Trump opens, the man in the center chair will be Chief Justice John Roberts. His role is spelled out in the Constitution.
It says that the chief justice "shall preside" over the Senate trial of a president. Those who envision a powerful role for Roberts point to Senate rules that would allow him to make decisions on "all questions of evidence." In theory, at least, that might enable Roberts to rule on motions from the House managers seeking to compel testimony from White House aides, like former national security adviser John Bolton, and others who had been blocked by Trump from testifying.
Yet under Senate rules, it is the senators themselves who have the first and last word.
I think that the enough Republicans will finally get some chance to uphold their sworn responsibility and allow some subpoenas requested for the 3 stooges.
What are the Republicans so afraid of the testimony?
If he's innocent what is the problem?
Things You Never Hear Progressives Say:
All things considered, America really is the best country ever, and I'm grateful to live here.
Thanks to capitalism, I can hang out at Starbucks all day and complain about capitalism.
Sometimes when a woman cries rape, she's just trying to get the guy in trouble.
This is an issue that should be decided by the states, not the federal government.
You know, Stalin was kind of a d*ck, wasn't he?
Why are we wearing 'Che' T-shirts? The guy was a psychotic, murderous thug.
We probably shouldn't be teaching 6-year-old children about things like anal sex and fisting.
Giving an 8-year-old girl puberty-blocking drugs and male hormones just because she's going through a tomboy phase is probably a bad idea.
White privilege is so bad, I am going to give all my money and property to charity and go live in a feces-enhanced, third-world country.
Why is it that all of the cities in our country that are slowly being transformed into feces-enhanced environments have all been controlled and run for decades by Democrats?
Can't we have a protest without all of these damn commies showing up?
Jumping up and down while wearing pink pussy hats and screaming obscenities may be fun, but it doesn't really accomplish anything, and actually makes us look ridiculous.
Gee, men and women really are different.
We should get married and have many children.
It's OK to strongly argue against Trump supporters, but no violence, please, that's going too far.
Drag queen story hour?? Have you lost your freaking mind!!??
Hey, some of these Democratic presidential candidates are way too extreme.
If we keep it dialed up to 11 all of the time, people will just tune us out.
I guess some things in life are bigger than politics.
She's a man, baby!
God bless us, every one.

What are the Republicans so afraid of the testimony?
we're not, alky.
why didn't house democrats call for the testimony???
why did the house fail it's duty???
If he's innocent what is the problem?
if democrats were so fucking serious, why did they rush it through the house???
Why are they fighting.

Alky knows less about The US Constitution then anyone.
This will piss off the losers of the right who bitch and moan about everything!!!!
According to a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll, Americans are evenly divided over President Trump’s decision to kill Iranian military leader Qassem Soleimani, but a plurality of the public opposes Trump’s overall approach to the Islamic Republic and believes his Democratic predecessor Barack Obama was more effective in dealing with Tehran.
Conducted from Jan. 8 to 10 — after Iranian ballistic missiles struck Iraqi bases in retaliation without causing American casualties and Trump declared that “Iran appears to be standing down” — the poll found that 42 percent of Americans oppose Trump’s approach to Iran (versus 36 percent who support it). Forty percent say Trump was wrong to withdraw from the Obama administration’s nuclear treaty with Tehran (versus 35 percent who say he was right), while 41 percent say Trump has been less effective on Iran than Obama (versus 34 percent who say the current president has been more effective). On all three questions, about a quarter of respondents said they were either not sure or neutral.
It's all radical and extreme when you don't offer a tangible way to pay for any of it
Hey Lil Scotty,,,,,You mean like Trump and his tax breaks and border wall????? BWAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
"Warren town hall interrupted by angry protester accusing her of ‘siding with terrorists’"
On the wrong side of History and America
The President directed his people to ignore the subpoenas and documents.
Chief Justice Roberts will let them testify under oath, if enough Republicans want to see all of the people who have first hand knowledge.
It will an interesting 3 to 4 weeks.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is set to be the main guest on the 18th season premiere of "Real Time With Bill Maher," HBO announced on Friday.
The announcement comes the same day that Pelosi said she will finally send the Senate the House-passed articles of impeachment against President Trump, which will no doubt be a primary point of discussion on the political talk show.
Also appearing on next Friday's "Real Time" premiere will be Democratic 2020 presidential candidate Andrew Yang, a tech entrepreneur who has struggled in primary polls but gained significant attention over his push for a "universal basic income" of $1,000 a month.
And sitting alongside Maher as a panelist will be former Rep. Joe Walsh (Ill.), one the Republicans waging a long-shot effort to challenge Trump for the GOP nomination.
"Real Time" will air live on the East Coast at 10 p.m. next Friday.
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran announced Saturday that its military ‘unintentionally’ shot down a Ukrainian jetliner, killing all 176 aboard.
The statement came Saturday morning and blamed “human error” for the shootdown.
The jetliner, a Boeing 737 operated by Ukrainian International Airlines, went down on the outskirts of Tehran during takeoff just hours after Iran launched a barrage of missiles at U.S. forces.
Iran had denied for several days that a missile downed the aircraft. But then the U.S. and Canada, citing intelligence, said they believe Iran shot down the aircraft.
The plane, en route to the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, was carrying 167 passengers and nine crew members from several countries, including 82 Iranians, at least 63 Canadians and 11 Ukrainians, according to officials.
