Are you bothered that the Syrian proxies that certain elements in US have been supporting are the same enemy that US declared war against after 9/11 – AQ and affiliates?

Do you support Tulsi Gabbard’s Stop Funding Terrorists Act?

Clinton just told Sanders to, ‘Shut-up and eat his peas!’

@jonlp  yes you have read that correctly.

Once again Clinton is not at fault. The woman needs professional help.

@jonlp I agree.  Which is why I think she is a much better person than I am.

I, on the other hand, had a hard time not sniggering, and keeping a straight face.

@jonlp Oh… I feel that when it comes to those “Impeachment” talk politicians, I don’t really think they mean it.

So it is more of a ploy in my view, which is why it falls in my list of priorities.  If they ever actually work towards impeachment with a credible argument, rather than what they are doing now, then maybe I’ll be more for it.  I d…[Read more]

Little Boy Pete Buttigieg should enjoy his 15 minutes of trumped up fame…….he’s NOT going anywhere since he’s only sporting barely above zero % support from the AA community……..these are BAD support optics that will continue to dog boy Pete moving forward…….such negative optics will also hurt him as a VP…[Read more]

Hi jlp,

What itch? The itch to neuter and eliminate the Vichy Dem infestation within the Democratic Party.  Further  proof of how out of touch the wealthy donor-centric dems have become.  Clearly they need to go.

@jonlp

Understood.  I also found it remarkable that a member of the press who was at Pelosi’s press conference (when she made this charge) expressed shock that she was using the word “bribery” – if forced to guess why the shock, I’d argue because, for decades now, in the DC bubble world, a world in which bribery in forms which have been…[Read more]

“All of our intelligence agencies” said nothing of the sort. Some handpicked analysts at the CIA said so, with no publicized evidence to support it. The FBI never investigated the “hacked” DNC servers. It was Crowdstrike that made those claims.

@jonlp

Hi jon,

Anna was promoted to executive producer for the show indicating that Cenk was probably planning something new for some time.

It could also be that Morales really messed up enough to make a coup possible. We’ll see what happens with the new elections. Who will monitor them? What international observers will be present? I don’t trust the OAS; bad track record. The devil’s in the details, and they are still unfolding. @jonlp

@jonlp

Darn it, I need to be more careful when I scan for earlier posts. Sorry! I’ll do what I can to adjust for that.

@jonlp Perhaps.

Again, I agree with her, it just feels like the wrong move.  I hope I’m wrong.

I guess, it doesn’t matter that much, she really is promoting a point of view.

@jonlp

I can somewhat see that.  It’s just slightly hard to see it from a further view.

I guess, she might be right in concentrating on these, as Sanders concentrates on economic and local issues.

I forget sometimes that she is providing more of a niche on foreign policy, rather than a more generalized presidential campaign.

@ohiobarbarian @jonlp It’s possible that she caused some confusion when she spoke of allowing some insurance plans, especially those of some unions, time to transition. I’m a retired union member, and as a retiree I’m still covered by a limited version of union insurance. All these plans have been sanctified by binding contracts with employers.

Thanks, @jonlp.

@jonlp I moved it to Foreign Affairs, where things foreign really belong.

@jonlp

I watched that the other day. I think that was the interview I remember, but they cut out her line about the Clinton machine.

@jonlp

Yes, the election of Bernie and Tulsi would be a win-win for everyone, and everything.

Clinton likes a good conspiracy theory, because it sounds a lot less embarrassing than, “Oops, I forgot about Wisconsin.”

@jonlp – yes, that’s exactly it.

@JonLP Tulsi made her position clear on Jimmy Dore show. She’s against torture.

Being confused and torn about what basically amounts to Trolley problem is one thing. Tulsi doesn’t want to make torture legal because of Trolley problem, which is the correct position.
