A friend (Bernie supporter) who is working for Bloomberg's campaign just confirmed that the audience members at the debate ARE paid to be there and support Bloomberg. He's buying support. And Russians are the big threat to our democracy?! Yeah right.
Holy crap. Literally EVERYONE is implicated. Lindsey Graham, Rick Perry, Donald Trump, Rudy, Kevin McCarthy, Devin Nunes, Jay Sekulow, Mike Pence, Bill Barr. The list just keeps growing. Please oh please, do Mitch McConnell next!!

I will no longer wear shirt or shoes inside any business. It's unconstitutional and hurts my sensitive little feelers because I have a small penis. Let's make this bullshit stop now! Who's with me?

As a Precinct Captain for Bernie Sanders at the Iowa caucus this Monday evening, I want you all to know I will be carrying you with me as we fight to bring home a victory. Every single one of you are the motor that drives this campaign. ❤🔥

I am fucking livid right now! The only thing that
@ewarren
and her campaign have managed to do is guarantee that I will never vote for her. Using feminism as a weapon to lie to smear your friend and fellow candidate to win an election is antithetical to the tenants of feminism!
(1) There is a horribly suspicious tweet being shared by
@verycosmic
by a lot of Sanders supporters that everyone needs to please delete and learn from. I don't know everything but I am a trained Precinct Captain for Bernie's campaign here in Iowa. I have busted my ass for...
I spent the day canvassing for Bernie at Germanfest here in N.E. Iowa in bright red Trump country and was blown away how many women and men are planning on caucusing for Bernie in the primary!! Genitals have NOTHING to do with it. Authenticity and vision does.
#WomenForBernie
I have a little story to share with you all about the importance of door knocking and reaching out to your friends and neighbors and encouraging them to vote for Bernie!
I went out door knocking all weekend in the town my precinct is in. I was happily surprised when... (1)
Ooooh, Bernie just said he *may* name his running mate BEFORE the convention and his inclination is that it will be a progressive woman of color. 😍🤔

@ninaturner
You need to respectfully drag her, Nina. This weaponization of feminism is actually the opposite of equality, is devout sexism and this billionaire, silver spooner needs an education. We need your voice, Nina. ❤🔥✊
Blue checks are freaking out because Wolf Blitzer dared to hold
@SpeakerPelosi
's hand to the fire. Really? No accountability at all for anyone on "your team", eh? How very Trumpian. Sorry but that is not how it is going to work. Nancy is playing politics and people are starving.
@jkfecke
Gen Xer here. You should speak for yourself. I was just discussing Stacey Abrams taking money from Bloomberg and how it's just another example of why I don't trust politicians other than Bernie. He's building a movement to change our future. Help or get out of the way. ✌
I just want to give a HUGE THANK YOU to
@BernieSanders
for continuing to be the sole voice in Congress who is fighting for us, the people. When Bernie said "when you hurt, I hurt", he meant it and he is walking the talk. Why is he the lone voice?!
#NotMeUs
@SenatorCollins
@lisamurkowski
I just wanted to bring this to your attention since you seem to be so easily offended by words. This is how Trump operates: a casual threat to a US Congressman who had the audacity to do his job and honor HIS oath to this republic. Do yours please.
@SteveKingIA
What an unmitigated disaster both you and Chuck Grassley are! No, you do NOT do a good job for Iowans. We deserve so much better! You do not represent the good people of Iowa, King. Start packing, buddy!

@BernieSanders
The fact that Liz didn't stand on that stage last night and say emphatically that she knows her "friend" Bernie Sanders is not a sexist just speaks volumes about who she is as a human being. We all know the implication of the attack her campaign brought. Shameful and disgusting!
Wow. She's a real class act. This is from 2018 so I guess sobriety hasn't cured all of your homophobia, eh Ashley? 🙄
What a great representative for the
@ewarren
campaign.
Hey
@JoeBiden
if you want Bernie supporters to vote for you, here are 2 ways you *might* win some votes:
1. Immediately support
#MedicareForAll
and agree to appoint Bernie to lead the fight to enact it.
2. Vow to never appoint HRC to any position in your administration.
@JoeBiden
Hmmmm, this sounds so familiar. Where have I heard this before???🤔
Oh yeah! It's been in Bernie's platform THE WHOLE TIME! It didn't take a pandemic for him to realize the basic needs of all working class families. Only you. Quit using a pandemic to pander. It's disgusting.
(3)...THEY REQUIRED TO HAVE A PHONE IN ORDER TO VOTE! That is just not true!! Here is a video that explains how caucuses work, put put by the Sanders campaign:
At the end of the caucus, the results will be recorded by the Chair and double-checked...
(2)...the last 8+ months and I am not about to sit quietly by while blatant lies, misinformation and just plain old craziness spreads like wildfire and hurts our chances here in the caucus. Let's talk facts. NO! VOTERS DO NOT NEED TO DOWNLOAD AN APP ON THEIR PHONES, NOR ARE...
WTF?! Iowa Dems just allocated 14 state delegates to Pete and 12 to Bernie?!
@fshakir
I hope you all fight like hell for justice. This is unjust. Please call for a recanvass immediately.
@RealKaylaJames
@RevDrBarber
@BernieSanders
He has a lot of respect for Bernie and I think he's offering genuine help here. That's the way I receive it anyway. He's encouraging Bernie to speak more directly and in ways that will resonate specifically with POC.
@realDonaldTrump
“A shutdown falls on the President’s lack of leadership. He can’t even control his party and get people together in a room. A shutdown means the President is weak”

@verycosmic
1 - I'm a Precinct Captain for Bernie in Iowa and I can tell you that is not true. Voters will NOT be forced to download an app in order to vote. The caucus Chair will send the results immediately to the state party via app and then send the paper results as well.
Please refrain from dancing on Pete's presidential campaign's grave and alienating his supporters please. You guys are killing me! We need to welcome voters in. There are millions of LGBTQ brothers and sisters and many others that supported him looking for a political home.
@davidhogg111
Watching you and all of your friends fighting for change and transforming your own lives as you move onto the next phase of your lives is just thrilling. I applaud you and I'm cheering you on, David. Go and get all the tools you will need to make an even bigger mark! So proud!
@Biaggi4NY
A lot of claims of antisemitism lately are NOT antisemitism, but support of Palestinians as they're being murdered by the IDF and the Israeli / US governments.
True antisemitism against the Jewish community is unacceptable, but weaponizing the accusation needs to stop too.
I received an email from the campaign this evening, asking me to volunteer to make calls for Bernie this weekend. The goal was to make 1 million calls this weekend. An hour later I see that volunteers across the country have already made over 800K calls! REVOLUTION!!❤

@browndirewolf
We are such a colonist plague to humanity.😪🤬
I recently found out my 4x Great Grandfather, who was a Quaker, was a conductor on the Underground Railroad and helped John Brown free slaves through the state of Iowa. It made me so proud, yet heartbroken at the same time.
(5)...campaign. It will not be via a DNC app.
This person is also claiming that all Act Blue donations are being misdirected and we need to demand refunds. Guys, please just think about it for a second. Does that make any sense to you? Do you really think Bernie wouldn't...
(6)...speak out LOUDLY if some nefarious 3rd party was pilfering our donations? Come on.
Look, I don't want to accuse anyone of acting in bad faith but I have my suspicions this person is not acting in good faith. I have begged her to delete her tweet after exposing the lie...
@smiley_carr
Bernie Sanders is a liar & an opportunist of the lowest order, but he isn't a creep in the same way that Joe Biden is a creep, & I find MSNBC using a know-nothing to disparage him as anti-woman creepy af.
This is a whole level down from truthiness, "I can't articulate it but ew."
(8) We're about to bring it home for Bernie and
#NotMeUs
here in Iowa and then it's onto New Hampshire. Let's refocus and stay strong! WE'VE GOT THIS!!
I start getting a little teary eyed and he says, "Lis, thanks for reminding me! I had totally forgotten the caucus was tonight!"
Guys, personal contact is how we win this election. If the thought crosses your mind to reach out to a friend, family member or neighbor...
(7)
They just got to Pompeo too. This interview is really something. Not sure how credible he is but he doesn't seem to be struggling to think too much before he answers. He's just talking.
@JoeJSaltarelli
I disagree that moderate Dems wouldn't vote for Bernie. The vast majority would vote blue no matter who.
On another note, good luck convincing these people to stand in line for 5 hours again to vote for the mediocrity of Joe Biden. 🙄
#OnlyBernieBeatsTrump
This is why I am feeling so defeated. I promised my friend I wouldn't stop fighting until
#M4ALL
was a reality.
Robin was a very dear friend of mine. I met her at one of my first protests and her eyes lit up when she noticed my "BERNIE: because fuck this shit" button. 1/12
WOW!!
@SpeakerPelosi
and the
@DNC
's House emergency package for COVID-19 leaves 54% of the American workforce WITHOUT PAID FAMILY LEAVE PAY!! 54%!!! This is a capitulation and failure of our lawmakers to protect the American people and instead protect corporate America!
Once again Democrats are fighting the wrong battle. If
@SpeakerPelosi
stopped resisting impeachment and allowed the House to open preliminary impeachment hearings then it would have allowed Democrats to acquire the unredacted Mueller report and avoid a protracted legal battle.
@eugenegu
So they can co-opt the sentiment of society at large. They want rioting and looting and fires and destruction so public sentiment no longer feels compassion for the black community. That is their modus operandi. It is either the cops or white provocateurs starting the violence.
(4)...by all Precinct Captains before being forwarded onto the state party via an app. The paper caucus results will also be collected and forwarded onto the state party. Every Bernie Precinct Captain will also transfer the results from every precinct onto the Sanders...
@amyklobuchar
That's what the Koch playbook told Sinema and Manchin to do. NOT hyperbole. They are beneficiaries of Koch and that was the Koch concession.
Why is no one holding their hand to the fire about it? Because you're all paid spokesmen of some lobby, corporation or industry?
I need your help, Bernie family: I just finished my Precinct Captain 401 training for the Iowa caucus and I'M SO PUMPED! At one point during the caucus I will be given a minute or two to stand up and speak to all of the voters at our caucus about Bernie.
@ContraPoints
@eshaLegal
Please, if every single one of you will reach out to 5 friends and drag them with you to vote, we can change the world!! I'm sorry my generation failed so spectacularly but you have the power to do what we failed to do. We have your backs! PLEASE HELP!! WE NEED YOU!!
#NotMeUs
Everyone keeps comparing what we're going through as WW2 and the Great Depression.
You know how we rebounded after WW2? It was FDR and the New Deal that jumpstarted our economy and gave the majority of Americans the boost they needed.
Bernie will do the same.
#M4All
#GND
(7)...and she is refusing to. It seems incredibly disingenuous at best. Can we all please take a breath and try to ask questions before buying into every conspiracy? I'm guilty of it too but I think it's only going to get worse from here. We have to toughen up our defenses.
What it should come down to is this:
Is there evidence of Bernie advocating for women across the board but also to be POTUS? Absolutely. 30+ years of it.
Is there evidence of Liz lying to advance her career? Absolutely. 30+ years of it.

#EtTuElizabeth
The burden has been really heavy, because it matters so much to so many (even if they don't know it).
I swear to God, they are closing the doors at 6:59 and 59 seconds and in flies Dr. Keith screaming, "Wait! I'm here to caucus for Bernie Sanders!!" 😍😍😍

@ahouse4all
I've never been more aware of how close the majority of us are to being in that position than I am now. Those who are homeless are no less worthy of humane treatment than those with a home. Why is that a metric that determines ones eligibility for receiving kindness and courtesy?
@BernieSanders
It was the honor of a lifetime! No way I could sit by and NOT participate. I hope every one of you across the country feels exactly the same!!

@TizzyEnt
Tizzy helps others and holds people accountable for their disgusting behavior, including you. It's a beautiful thing.
You degrade and humiliate people for your own benefit. You're a scourge to humanity.
Let's have a heart to heart about Tom Steyer. I agree his stanning Bernie is cute to see but keep your guard up, Bernie fam. Up until he decided to run for POTUS, he sat on Neera Tanden's C.A.P. board of directors. Proceed with caution everybody.
@bern_identity
@krystalball
Plus, where was she when Bernie proposed the same plans but was actually trying to turn them into law? Why didn't she co-sponsor? This is what enrages me. Why all the plans now? What the hell have you been waiting for, Elizabeth?
#BernieAlreadyHadThatPlan
Wait a second. They just said on CNN that 100% of results from the caucus are in but every website, including IDP say it's only 99% and 5 precincts are still outstanding.
What is the truth?
I am not too proud to admit I'm struggling hard. I've been fighting COVID for the last 2 months, haven't worked, haven't seen my son and only eating every 3rd day in the hopes I can afford a birthday gift and a Christmas gift for my son. Just realized today I won't have enough.
@RevDrBarber
@BernieSanders
Thank you, Rev.
Bernie fam: please don't receive this as an attack on Bernie. I truly believe the Rev is offering help here. He knows Bernie is inspired by MLK and encouraging Bernie to speak specifically in ways that will resonate with the black community. It's not critical.
My friend Moe just died from COVID. He was unvaccinated. His brother, his last surviving family member has been through the most heart-wrenching nightmare the last few weeks. He has had to make some horrific judgment calls, including amputating one of Moe's legs. 1/2

I'm sorry, Mia, but I am a 49 year old woman in middle America. Control me? What on earth do you mean?
Social media is unfortunately a blood sport and Bernie voters are no more guilty of it than any other voters. We just get labeled with it to shame others from voting too.
Bernie made the rest of the field look like pandering moderates, which is wholly accurate. He is in a whole other stratosphere! MOTHER EARTH NEEDS YOU TO VOTE FOR BERNIE SANDERS! 😊🔥❤

@DebraMessing
1. He's a United States Senator
2. This is his 3rd response to one of Trump's b.s. spews
3. He is speaking AFTER Stacey Abrams (who he endorsed for Gov, btw)
4. Is he the only human being who isn't allowed to speak or do you have the same standard for everyone?
Calling on the
@BernieSanders
campaign to call for a recount in Texas. Lots and lots of shenanigans and major, nonsensical jumps of 15K+ new votes for Joe and Bernie's total stayed the same. It's very fishy. Please recount.

Are you new to politics? Joe is going to have to EARN our votes. He has lots of choices, including embracing Medicare-for-all. Will he even try to earn our votes or just demand it? We'll see.
@TwinklingTania
I have friends here in Iowa who have received calls from pollsters and as soon as the home owner says they don't support a particular candidate, the pollster hangs up. They pre-qualify homes to call that are friendly to certain candidates. That's how they push fake polls.
These peeps have worked their fingers to the bone for this campaign for months on end. Driving hundreds of miles a week, long ass days that stretch into long ass nights, calling and giving everything they have FOR US! Send them your gratitude. They deserve it!
#IACaucusForBernie
Let’s all keep the Bernie 2020 Iowa field organizers in our hearts and minds today and tomorrow. Some of them have been on this grind for 8 months. This is not easy work.
If we win tomorrow, it will largely be thanks to them.
Thank you field team. ❤️😭
@AshleeMPreston
This is a disgrace. What you fail to realize is that this sort of gaslighting and outright lying is only going to serve to further divide progressives and guess who benefits from that? TRUMP. You are literally playing right into his hands. Well done? Shame on you
@TheYoungTurks
@AdyBarkan
I knocked doors in Iowa for over 9 months. Many Dem voters said they didn't care who the nominee was and didn't want to waste time caucusing. They just want Trump out and will vote for the nominee. Young voter turnout was up because those voters want Bernie specifically.
Ok, call me paranoid but does anyone else see all of these p.r. moves from Bill and Hillary Clinton as suspect? Bill releasing a documentary about his scandal, Hillary's new podcast, etc. Is it possible Joe would pick her as a VP?
@SymoneDSanders
@nytimes
Stop pretending like you don't know the truth. You're endangering this nation and the world by allowing him to run and you know it. You know what we had to do when my Dad showed the same signs? WE TOOK AWAY HIS CAR KEYS, not run him to be the most powerful man in the world!
How much money has Joe Biden taken from the pro-Israel lobby you ask?
Over $4.2 MILLION.
More than any other candidate.
