Let's be clear. Eli Lilly should apologize for increasing the price of insulin by over 1,200% since 1996 to $275 while it costs less than $10 to manufacture. The inventors of insulin sold their patents in 1923 for $1 to save lives, not to make Eli Lilly's CEO obscenely rich.

This is HILARIOUS! Republican Jesus is the funniest thing you will see on this site ALL DAY. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

ON JOE BIDEN OFFENDING THE AMERICAN RIGHT BY SAYING DEMOCRACY IS GOOD

It's possible the margin for "No" in red Kansas will be a resounding double digits, a sign of just how unpopular overturning Roe v. Wade is nationally.

What's going on here?

I don't understand why Kavanaugh couldn't just go to another state to eat? Why did he allow himself to get hungry in the first place? 🤔

If you are okay with having Muslim, Jewish and Hindu students sit through a Christian prayer in public school, and not okay with having Christian students sit through a Muslim, Jewish or Hindu prayer, then it’s NOT religious freedom- it’s religious oppression.

Forced birth in a country with: —No universal healthcare —No universal childcare —No paid family & medical leave —One of the highest rates of maternal mortality among rich nations This isn't about "life." It's about control.

At this point, Congress is just an arms dealer. No education. No access to healthcare. No housing. No clean drinking water. But we’ll finance your war.

In Germany, teaching the Holocaust is mandatory. It includes visits to concentration camp, museums, etc. They don’t shy away from their own ugly history. Yet the kids aren’t damaged; they’re strengthened, matured, humbled. US needs to do same re slavery. Not that complicated.

one sign of a thriving democracy is that a coal baron elected by less than 300,000 people gets to take a sledgehammer to everything

A total boycott on Russian oil and gas could end the war. If oil and gas were boycotted it would hit Russia so hard that Russia might agree to a ceasefire, which could end the killing of Ukrainian civilians. Russian oil and gas have to be boycotted.

I am so tired of people running around with a mouthful of scripture and a heart full of hate.

-Can I get an abortion? America: Lol no you’re an incubator now. whore -Okay can I have healthcare and maternity leave and childcare and housing? America: absolutely not. -How are we supposed to… America: Here’s a gun.

Joe Manchin represents .5% of US population but just killed paid family leave supported by 80% of Americans. Shockingly undemocratic

Some context on price tags: The $725.8 billion defense spending bill is for 1 year. The $3.5 trillion Build Back Better plan is over 10 years. Apples to apples, Biden's economic and social policy bill is less than half of what Congress wants to spend on the Pentagon.
