Exactly my thoughts on Sanders, going back to 2015...Bernie tweeted yesterday to join him “to take on the democratic establishment” Sanders means to defeat what HRC represented when she raised funds for all down ticket candidates, fund every democratic office in every state in 2015-2016 and onward..then Sanders had the nerve to tell Democrats/DNC that the infrastructure wasn’t adequate enough for his campaign...when he hadn’t given a sou or a hapenny to sustain one let alone 100’s of those offices. Sanders is without doubt a piece of work, most of his colleagues think so...most of them ignore his rants

Bernie's is the only campaign talking about issues that matter to regular people. If wanting clean water is like voting for santa clause, then yeah I'm voting for santa clause.

AMEN AMEN AMEN. After the McGovern defeat, the American Left (Michael Harrington, Tom Hayden, etc.) held a series of meetings where it was decided to join up with the Labor movement, the Civil Rights movement, the Women's movement, the nascent Environmental movement, and the Peace movement IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY. Over the years, we have walked precincts, made phone calls, raised money, and compromised to advance our common agenda and build a movement that elected the first African-American US president and was poised to elect the first woman US president until the RUSSIANS and the Bernie Bros undermined the popular vote.

What will today's news hold? Manafort moves to Russia? Kavanaugh(not Thomas) resigns?

Pick one of Mr. Olear's articles to read and before you finish, breaking news, headlines about something he covered recently or 4 years ago.

(by Greg Olear, article)

Bernie took his wife to the Soviet Union for their honeymoon, as one does. For years, he extolled the virtues of the USSR. Rather than grok that it’s all KGB-fed propaganda and lies, he’s been a staunch Bolshevik apologist for his entire adult life.
