For months on end, my friends @JulianCastro and @CoryBooker asked for the DNC debate rules to change so that a more diverse set of candidates could appear on stage. The @DNC said no. They insisted the rules could not be changed while the campaign was in motion. This is CRAZY. https://t.co/KnDWkP4TFV
RT @ggreenwald: Next step is to set a price for Bloomberg to pay to officially change the name to the “Mike Bloomberg DNC.” Remember all the bullshit about how rigidly set the rules were & changes were impossible to permit people like Cory Booker, Castro & Tulsi to participate? https://t.co/MvKkRbgBwd
RT @EmmaVigeland: So now that Bernie Sanders is the frontrunner, the DNC is changing its debate rules mid-primary, eliminating the small donor threshold to let Bloomberg buy his way onto the stage. Bloomberg’s surrogates are openly admitting he’s running as a Sanders spoiler. Here we go again. https://t.co/WqGTuQijKo

RT @PramilaJayapal: I’m proud to be a woman of color, immigrant, activist & progressive member of Congress—& I’m proud to be all in for @BernieSanders for President! Bernie will fight for ALL of us, take on the status quo & bring about the deep structural change we desperately need. Join us! https://t.co/WgfcNaihf6
RT @shaunking: I don't think you've seen ALL of this. In 1987, when @JoeBiden ran for President, he didn't get caught in 1 lie, he got caught in at least 9 wildly different lies and acts of plagiarism. It engulfed his campaign and he resigned in disgrace. FULL STORY: https://t.co/vm18cq7OAa https://t.co/FUjALdqA3C
RT @aishaismad: Phil Donahue: Are you a capitalist? Bernie Sanders: 'No I am not a capitalist...do I believe that the profit motive is fundamental to human nature? The answer is no. I (believe in) the spirit of cooperation, that you & I can work together...rather than destroy eachother' 1981. https://t.co/ANesbyz2OM

Cookie & I are praying for Vanessa, his beautiful daughters Natalia, Bianka & Capri, as well as his parents Joe & Pam & his sisters. We will always be here for the Bryant family. https://t.co/WWxmtEAJqZ
RT @MagicJohnson: Kobe and I shared so many special conversations about life and basketball. We had so much in common off the court. I used to love talking to him about Lakers basketball, being fathers and husbands and how much we loved Italy. I will miss those conversations and him so much. https://t.co/PIv7obzr2x
RT @MagicJohnson: He gave his knowledge, time, and talent to tutor so many at the youth level, collegiate level, & NBA & WNBA players. Words can’t express the impact that he had on the game of basketball. I know basketball fans all over the world will miss him, especially the City of Los Angeles. https://t.co/ZoB3Uwbvzk
RT @SHAQ: Kobe was so much more than an athlete, he was a family man. That was what we had most in common. I would hug his children like they were my own and he would embrace my kids like they were his. His baby girl Gigi was born on the same day as my youngest daughter Me’Arah. https://t.co/BHBPN5Wq8V
