Yeah, it's the same shade as Klobuchar's 99 in 100 chance, but as mentioned the map is horribly designed

Yes, people pay for their homes. It's significantly reduced though, and the terms are extremely lenient.

It was never intended to just give everyone a free house.

I think Cynthia Nixon must have ran over Bernie's dog or something because I just saw he made an endorsement for NY lt. governor, and literally every other progressive in the state except her.

Either that or maybe Bernie isn't that good.

Bernie mostly endorses dedicated proponents of change. Latecomers and celebrity protest campaigns might not meet his standards.

Hollywood Celebrities are the future of this country

Celebrities have now clothing lines, shoe lines, perfume lines, they're entrepreneurs in this late stage so the obvious next logical step to capture their audience is governance

Trump has a star on the walk of fame, and Schwarzenegger was governor of California

quote:

Different sources provided different accounts of the contents of the letter, and some of the sources said they themselves had heard different versions, but the one consistent theme was that it describes an incident involving Kavanaugh and a woman while they were in high school. Kept hidden, the letter is beginning to take on a life of its own.

The woman who is the subject of the letter is now being represented by Debra Katz, a whistleblower attorney who works with #MeToo survivors. Joseph Abboud, an attorney at Katz’s firm, said that the firm was declining to comment. Emma Crisci, a spokesperson for Eshoo, declined to comment on the letter her office sent to Feinstein, saying that the office has a policy of not discussing what it called a constituent matter. A spokesperson for Feinstein did not respond to requests for comment.
