title: people arrested for food stamp fraud guess how many were black
text: on november    pm  
  it was just a few days ago that bernie sanders responded to trumps election win with the perfect message from democrats he said  
  if donald trump takes peoples anger and turns it against muslims hispanics african americans and women we will be his worst nightmare 
  and from what was just announced it seems that sanders has every intention of making good on that warning earlier today the vermont senator was named chair of outreach during a closeddoor senate democrat caucus meeting according to the hill  in his new role sanders will lead outreach to bluecollar voters  the very voters who became trump supporters this year sanders will also be the ranking member on the senate budget committee acknowledging that he has a heavy responsibility to help shape the priorities of the united states government sanders said im going to do everything that i can to make sure that the budget that leaves the united states congress is a budget that represents the needs of working families and a shrinking middle class and not billionaires with the announcement of sanders new position trump is definitely going to be a nervous wreck hes spent his entire presidential campaign claiming that he would help the working class and now sanders is in the position to challenge him and hold him to it for the next four years by elevating sanders to this new role democrats are moving to a more grassroots message fully aware that sanders presidential campaign and vision for america resonated with many voters as we saw with sanders popularity in the primaries the vermont senator struck a nerve with workers and families making him the perfect candidate to go up against trump as he takes office sen debbie stabenow dmich commented on sanders new responsibility we want to expand on that and he will be reaching out to all our allies we have a tremendous amount of talent in our caucus and we want to make sure everyone is contributing sanders hardly needed this promotion to upset trump as hes been one of the most outspoken politicians on twitter since trumps win twitter twitter twitter 
  however sanders new role is great news for our country and we know hes going to give trump hell
