That is why so many progressives like Bernie, he fights. And he is fearless.

People forget, but clear back in Bernie's college days he was actively protesting things like segregated dorms. I think it was dorms

I know he was fighting racism, like the rest of we liberals..

And this is why the minorities stick with we liberal dems, even as they are conservative.

We didn't just protest racism, we got on the bus with the victims.

Bernie has his personality issues, but no one can accuse him of not fighting the good fight.

The right wing always says we take the African American for granted, which is nuts.

We liberal Democrats made a home for the African American when they were under siege by the conservative racists and they are grateful.

Boy I went off into the weeds on that one-lol.

Sanders to Delay Defense Bill Veto Override
Political Wireby Taegan Goddard

“Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) will filibuster an override of President Trump’s defense bill veto unless the Senate holds a vote on providing $2,000 direct payments to Americans,” Politico reports.

“McConnell and the Senate want to expedite the override vote and I understand that. But I’m not going to allow that to happen unless there is a vote, no matter how long that takes, on the $2,000 direct payment.”

Better smoke a doobie-lol.
