  1. The government, of which WE put into office, COMPLETELY has failed us, the people. BOTH the elephant & donkey people. 🤦🏽‍♂️

    1. @Graham Right you are, they’re just too focused on being in control. That’s certainly what the problem would seem to be anyway.

  2. We all know the answer to why so many Americans haven’t gotten the money they so desperately needed for the last 6 months and his name is Mitch McConnell

    1. @MAGA 2020 back in may there was a second bill passed but the house that the republican senate blocked ever since then republicans want to put as little as possible and reject everything

    2. It’s a broken system. Politics is a business where the politicians gain all the wealth. It is the sole reason we have wealth class. When have you seen a broke politician ?

    3. Yes that Mitch McConnell. GEORGIA SOUTH Carolina WE AMERICAN People is depend on y’all to VOTE BLUE TICKET ALL the Way DOWN. Georgia people get out and VOTE please

    1. @Dylan Butts Yeah I for got the higher the nat’l debt the better.Does that work on the personal level? Wonder why we pay taxes when the gov’t can just print money.Why do we all work?Gov’t should support us all! You should run for President,people allegedly voted for Creeper Joe,they would probably vote for you.

    2. @Steve F I think they can just print the money. So, where it is coming from isn’t really the question to be asking. The real question is how much money can you give out like this until it starts affecting the value of that money? Personally, I don’t think a few checks is going to do that much damage. If we did one every month for 6 months or so then maybe. Money has value because of the man hours, etc, that it represents. An extended period of these checks would significantly change that dynamic imo. I’m not a financial expert though… I only play one on Youtube.

  3. Apparently giving billions to the richest didn’t help. It never does. There is no way that the right doesn’t use this bill to push through legislation nobody wants.

    1. I’m sure most of the money ends up helping their rich friends.
      They are funding corporations not being liable for their employees getting sick because of their negligence.

    2. @Rosalie Thomson they got 100 billions for the military and industrial complex…it took three days since they received the letter from thos MF and they got it in the bill immediately, but when it’s about the working people, nothing is possible and vit’s been 9 months since they haven’t done SH** for us…so to answer your question, they got what they wanted for the military and industrial complex and, yes, the couldn’t care less about the people.

    3. @Andre Anyone A bit extreme. This is not how we fix this. The best way to start the process is to campaign for Democrat Jon Ossoff and Democrat Raphael Warnock in the United States Senate special election in Georgia, 2020.

    4. @Andre Anyone Americans are far to scared for this. The late George Carlin talked greatly that America will never rid of corruption as we have been combed to be fearful of anything and everything and to top it off the problem isn’t the people it’s divisive measures to disempower citizens from ever doing so. Corporate control would wipe us out like a bad case of the fleas. If you want real change, move to a country that doesn’t just want and believe in change but allows for change. America is the land of old rich shitheads who love to control any and all classes.

  4. Thank you Bernie, for using your voice to speak for millions of people. 🙏🏽 don’t know if it’ll make a difference, but it’s a start. Someone has to state the obvious, we’re surrounded by ignorance and greed. It’s a shame.

    1. $600 a week or WAR !!! March on Washington !! surround senators homes 24/7 (especially Mitch) dont let them sleep !! DEATH TO TYRANTS !!!!!!ukkp

  5. I feel like Bernie is the only one looking out for us. And we really appreciate it. We are keeping our fingers crossed.

    1. @Mountain LWolf Sadly true and he is Independent…So he can say the truth without pissing off his corporate and party masters!

    2. @Francis Augustine This is a farce of a notion. Capitalism creates opportunities for economic stimulation. If the rich created jobs then the 1% wealthiest on earth wouldn’t control 99% of the wealth on earth. Basic economics teaches that. Republican ideologies ( such as the one you just flexed and clearly are washed in) mislead people and further the capitalistic hegemony that is burying America as it was. Sad but true.

    3. @kevin D In America there isn’t. Education is motivated by capitalist and hegemonic greed. There are several successful Countries that have platforms social education. I know you seem to promote hatred for socialism but I am positive you won’t when you go to collect social security at retirement. Social Security is America’s finest example of how socialism can work in a capitalistic society.

    4. @Terry Gagnon I love how independent is becoming more popular. I know there are arguments supporting parties, but I also see it causes a ton of issues.

  6. The biggest mistake the Democratic party (and CNN) made was kicking Bernie to the curb in this election. Good to see you, Bernie!

    1. @Erik PDX Yes, America spoke. They demand change, and when it comes time to support it they get scared and go with the norm.

    2. True but it’s not the Democratic party and CNN that determine the votes, American voters do. Finally, it’s American voters’ own fault for voting against their own interests.

    3. It wasn’t a mistake. It was in their best interest. If Bernie would have won, he would have transformed the party into one that works for working people, and they did everything they could to avoid that. Like others have mentioned, you can blame them and you can blame CNN – both share responsibility – but you also have to blame the American voters who continue to enable a corrupt two party system.

    1. Remind Bernie that prior to the election the GOP offered a $1.9 trillion deal. This deal included a $1200 check, $450 extra unemployment, and retroactive unemployment. For political purposes (Hurt Trump) He and his party turned it down. Now look at what we are being stuck with. Thanks BERNIE.

    2. What verse in your book mentions America? Maybe, you should Get Out, Go Back to where Bilebull was created and/or Places it actually mentioned, YOUR, WHAT’S WRONG, WITH AMERICA! Get out with your Sadistic cult, hesus $lave.

    1. Mitch likes lobster he even made a national lobster roll day awhile back. $600.00 is not going to do much in the way of stimulus. It costs that much to buy propane.

  7. Bernie Sanders throw Mitch McConnell out of there and you need to take that seat. We need a lot more people like Bernie Sanders sitting in Congress and Senate that are for the people of the United States of America. We the People vote in Bernie Sanders

    1. Pelosi is the leader of his party and the one that screwed over him twice but he bent over like the fake he is !

    1. I believe 100% Bernie could have won this year election against Trump. I would pick Bernie over anyone they put on the democratic ticket.

    2. Progressive Bernie sanders, and Republican Josh Hawley made this happen. Not a single democrat joined them in supporting a stimulus check, until they forced them, by demanding they wouldn’t leave for break unless stimulus was included. Let that sink in, it took a Republican and a progressive. Democrats did absolutely nothing.

  8. Nothing is going to happen until the Grim Reaper McConnell decides what he wants to do. He has no problem passing 2tn bill for Wall Street but talks austerity when it’s money for the American people.

  9. Bernie Sanders is the ONLY political figure who has never changed his position…look up Videos of him from many years ago, he has always fought for working people

    1. Dems claim Bernie is “fighting for the working people”, but in reality he is fleecing them to pay for his leftist utopia. Who else is going to pay for it? There aren’t enough rich and the poor obviously pay nothing.Thus, the middle class must pay.

    1. @Brad Moore Unfortunately, most of these elections are an exercise in the lesser of the evils… So yeah… Joe was the choice. Was it a “hatred” for Trump? Nah… but being a New Yorker, I’ve known who this guy was for a long, long time… and ain’t nothin’ changed.

    2. Bend over Bernie sucked up to a party that screwed him twice ! Just a blabbermouth that does nothing but talk !

  10. “We can’t go back to our own family” when somebody’s family is hurting right now! What a true public servant ❤️

    1. He could have been the president now. Instead, people chose sleepy Joe Biden. What has Biden said or done to help this situation. Bernie is a fighter. Biden is an empty suit. The American people shot themselves in the foot this year.
