HUFFPOST HILL - Treasury Announces Big Changes For Cocaine Users

For a second it appeared that the Treasury Department was changing our currency because of a musical but then we realized it was 4/20 and we were probably just really high. Bernie Sanders was once booted from a progressive commune for yakking about politics too much, not exactly the first time his incredibly vocal, and increasingly unwelcomed, presence irked a lot of liberals. And President Obama touched down for meetings with representatives of our ally, Saudi Arabia, where human rights have been under assault in recent years. To be fair who among us doesn’t have a friend who’s hired the Podesta Group to smooth over a questionable history of beheading people? This is HUFFPOST HILL for Wednesday, April 20th, 2016:

LET'S ALL BE HONEST WITH OURSELVES: BERNIE'S IN IT FOR THE EMAIL LIST - Though, to his credit, he probably won't sell it to a marketing firm. Janie Valencia: "Despite closing in recently on front-runner Hillary Clinton in national polls, Bernie Sanders’ path to the Democratic nomination has become increasingly difficult after Tuesday night’s loss. Coming into Tuesday’s Empire State primary, Clinton had 1,289 pledged delegates to Sanders’ 1,045 delegates, meaning that Sanders didn’t just need a win in New York — he needed a big win. Once all the votes are counted in the Empire State, Sanders will get a proportional share of the 247 pledged delegates. To turn things around, Sanders needs to start winning many more contests by double digits. The next series of states — Maryland, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Delaware and Rhode Island — vote on Tuesday, April 26." [HuffPost]
