The Dems that Bernie is directly fighting for probably voted 60/40 for Biden.

Fuck masks and ventilators. Get me some Bernie and AOC DNA and I’ll figure out a way to start turning out clones in big numbers. Only shot we got.

Senate passed it. House to vote Friday.

You’d get more news coverage than Bernie will get for that speech.

Called the unemployment office for Washington state and hit the button to connect to an operator as soon as my phone switched to 8 o clock (the time when they open the phone lines to operators.)

It is now 8:53. I am still on hold.

I would normally just do everything online, but since my circumstances are fairly unique (Quit a job to take another job that I had an offer letter from that was withdrawn prior to starting) I need to make sure I fill out everything perfectly to prevent delays.

This is going to be bad for a lot of people. If you don’t get on line as soon as the phone lines open, you won’t get on all day. I tried calling multiple times throughout the day yesterday and received “All circuts are currently busy, try your call at another time” messages.

MN is asking everyone to file for unemployment through their website unless you don’t have internet or speak a language that the site isn’t available in (think they have the site translated in Spanish, Hmong and Somali)

Finally got my call answered at 9:15. It appears everything is a go after an adjudication period (could take weeks with backlog) so hopefully we are ok til then.

Thats why we just needed UBI for the duration of this. Should of been a separate bill. Democrats could of created and said lets pass this for the people then we can discuss the corporate bail outs.

Is Boeing really getting cash after they tanked the company with the 737 MAX fiasco?

The 737 thing is so much worse than most people are aware. They demanded extra money to turn off the literal doom switch!

This is a HUGE deal if true. Naked corruption.
