The new Pope Francis has declared that Atheists can make it into Heaven.  House Republicans passed a bill that would cause students rates to go up over time.  The DCCC created a simple ad pointing out their attack on students with loans.  Elizabeth Warren proposed that students pay what we comically charge the banks, a rate of .75%.  Conservatives lost their minds at this reasonable proposal.  Bernie Sanders proposed allowing his state of Vermont to label foods with GMOs, but was greeted with lies and manipulation in opposition by paid off senators.  Progress report of states that are pursuing an amendment to get money out of politics.
