    Corporate media 4 months from now: "Bernie Sanders, who had a heart attack four months ago…"

    Sanders is pure garbage.
    So let me get this right. While you’re smoking weed and getting high the tech industry is creating the next generation of super technology and earning billions. And when they get paid you’re going to ask for your "share" of their billions- what for? So you can buy more weed. Time to realize you’re broke because you’re an idiot. There is no cure for stupid.

  24. Salim Asencio on November 20, 2019 at 4:17 am

    Do you want a President that will fight tooth and nail for you and your family? Only one candidate has been fighting for equal rights for more than 30 years, and has been CONSISTENT in his beliefs even when it was not popular, Imagine a WHITE politician actively marching with the Black community in the 60’s 70’s (Political suicide).
    Now imagine a heterosexual Politician fighting for GAY RIGHTS in the 80’s (Political suicide)
    Now he’s leading the fight on Medicare for all, eliminating student debt, eliminating mass incarceration etc…
    He is the real deal and we have the opportunity to make this great man President, Bernie you have been fighting for us for more than 3 decades, now we will fight for you, we got your back.

    What I don’t get is biopharmaceutical companies are busy researching cutting-edge drugs for cancer, and a myriad of other diseases. Why ON EARTH would it still be illegal federally??? The federal govt. has approved several of the medications; one recently for female troubles, others for nausea, etc. This schizophrenic behavior has to stop; it is so confusing to the public who is investing and watching with anticipation and excitement over more non-toxic medications. This needs to be addressed immediately; the message is really poor!



  30. insanegameaddict on November 20, 2019 at 4:27 am

    Didn’t Obama make this promise
