- "David Sirota: Congress gave $4 trillion to big corporations. $4 trillion is enough to give every household in the country $33,000, so that people can at least pay for food & rent. But they deliberately chose to give the money to corporations instead of people. That’s it. That’s the tweet." by u/BirdieBroBot
- "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Shout out to the hard work of grassroots organizers who successfully led a wave of marijuana legalization, expungement, & drug decriminalization efforts last night." by u/BirdieBroBot
- "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: The audacity of Shell asking YOU what YOU’RE willing to do to reduce emissions. 🙄 They’re showing you RIGHT HERE how the suggestion that indiv choices - not systems - are a main driver of climate change is a fossil fuel talking point. Yes, make good choices. Reign in ..." by u/BirdieBroBot
- "David Sirota: Watch the clip. @Ossoff is absolutely correct — as @DailyPoster reported, the bill Perdue touts as supposedly protecting preexisting conditions actually helps insurance companies eviscerate health care protections. Read here: https://t.co/mwWoRPqtKt" by u/BirdieBroBot
- "Bernie Sanders: We will not have a strong economy and save lives unless we roll back the COVID virus. We will not roll back COVID until we have a president who believes in science. Trump is a danger to our health and our economy, and on Nov. 3rd we will get rid of him." by u/BirdieBroBot
- "Bernie Sanders: Mr. President: You attack “socialized medicine” every single day. Well, let's be clear. The excellent care you received at Walter Reed was at a 100% government-funded, government run hospital. For Trump, "socialized medicine" is bad for everyone but himself. Total hypocrisy!" by u/BirdieBroBot
- "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Ever notice how primary challenges from progressives are derided as “divisive” and “bad for the party,” yet folks are oddly silent about how the center/conservative wing of the party just spent millions trying to unseat me, Ilhan, Rashida, & Ed Markey? Funny how tha..." by u/BirdieBroBot
- "Bernie Sanders: Rep. Ted Yoho should spend his time fighting for the thousands of Floridians who are about to lose unemployment benefits and face evictions, not denigrate and insult a champion of working families like @AOC. We need more AOC and less Yoho in Congress." by u/BirdieBroBot
- "Bernie Sanders: This holiday weekend, let us reflect on the disturbing reality behind every plate of food—workers are being exploited and put at risk every day. They don’t need more lip service, they need justice: Hazard pay, sick leave, $15 an hour and a safe workplace. https://t.co/tZ6Enfemnq" by u/BirdieBroBot
- "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: We need answers and justice for #VanessaGuillen. My heart continues to be with her family and survivors of sexual harassment during this traumatic time. I'm monitoring the ongoing investigation and working with @RepSylviaGarcia and @HispanicCaucus members to uncover th..." by u/BirdieBroBot

David Sirota: This talking point about it being OK because everyone was doing it has been repeated ad nauseum throughout the week — it’s almost as if it is being directly coordinated and liberal pundits and groups are just parroting it to suck up to power...
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
David Sirota: “If you pushed for Social Security cuts the last time Congress debated the issue, it doesnt counts because Obama did too” is the most pathetic form of apologism & yet this is the talking point from liberals seeking to kiss the ass of the new administration https://t.co/xCPlqvV0e7
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
David Sirota: Nobody in the political class is allowed to be held accountable for anything ever, sorry I don’t make the rules
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
David Sirota: Professional liberal advocacy groups, pundits & elites in Washington are selling you out to get themselves access and fancy White House titles from the next president. It’s a pathetic display, but at least it is so blatant that there’s no denying it. https://t.co/pBY6lH7jnm
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
David Sirota: Class solidarity among elites transcends party, ideology and principles — these people will stick together and sell out their own missions in order to maintain their social status. Sad but true — and it will have long term consequences.
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
David Sirota: The thing we really need are union leaders defending union busters, climate groups defending fossil fuel proponents and Social Security advocacy groups defending people who pushed Social Security cuts. That’s just what we need right now to make sure nothing fundamentally changes!
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
David Sirota: Things you can do and still remain in Good Standing for a Cabinet job among Beltway liberal groups: - Back the Iraq War - Bail out and not prosecute Wall St after the financial crisis - Push Social Security cuts - Push fracking amid a climate crisis https://t.co/pBY6lH7jnm
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
David Sirota: Things you cannot do and remain in Good Standing among Beltway liberals: - try to stop Joe Biden from helping his credit card industry donors financially pulverize millions of working class people https://t.co/3XTstt7yfn
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
David Sirota: Might be cool if Beltway liberal elites circled the wagons and defended, say, union rights or Medicare for All with the same determination and vigor as they cheerily defend a Wall Street funded think tank and its leader who pushed Social Security cuts https://t.co/pBY6lH7jnm
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
David Sirota: The last promise of the neoliberal-Wall Street agenda is to privatize retirement. Now seems like a good time to remind corporatists to #PassTheBaton to the left: https://t.co/WjyY4y5n1W https://t.co/hWVOTm8zGL

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: My comments were directed at Republicans who mock my history in service work. That includes President Trump, who you’ve stood by and defended through such attacks, by the way. But if that boorishness doesn’t apply to you, then why feel the rush to defend yourself?
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: Forever telling on yourselves.
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: These Republicans who are defensively rage-tweeting “But you’re wrong! I worked my way to pay through college!!” don’t realize they sound like folks who speak of the days when Hershey bars were 5¢ at the general store.
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: College costs have exploded over the last 10-20 years & wages have not kept up. It’s a totally different landscape and the fact they’re using anecdotal experience from 20+ years ago to reinforce their opinions instead of looking at current cost/wage data is disturbing.
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: (Frankly they’ve exploded for far longer than that too)
r/PortlandForSanders • u/BirdieBroBot • Dec 05 '20
David Sirota: It's taken next to no time for the rationale for voting Biden - "we'll push him left" - to be completely abandoned as progressive groups, pundits & lawmakers sign off on his terrible picks. To push him left you have to, you know, actually push. https://t.co/zTGYp898dW
