Tulsi Gabbard is one of only two of the Democrats in the field that I find dangerous (the other is billionaire Tom Steyer, who made his fortune in dirty energy and investing in for-profit private prisons and is now trying to buy a presidency) though in the very unlikely event that either got the nomination, I would vote for either of them in a head-to-head against Trump.
Hillary Clinton is not the only one suggesting that Tulsi is 2020’s Russian puppet. Hillary did not mention Tulsi by name. Tulsi is the one who took the bait and identified herself as the one Hillary was referring to.
NBC news had reported some time ago that Tulsi Gabbard might be a Russian Trojan Horse. As reported on NBC News awhile back:
Vanity Fair some time ago also compared Gabbard to Jill Stein, the 2016 Russian Trojan Horse who was with Mike Flynn when Flynn had dinner at the same table with Vladimir Putin (Stein is in the photo at the table with Flynn and Putin).
I like Bernie. But I like Warren better. I am, however, totally unsurprised by the endorsements by AOC and Omar: They’re radical, and so is he. Warren, however, has a plan for every plank in her platform — despite the right wingers who are trying to claim she doesn’t have a plan for universal health care — what she doesn’t have is a plan that she can explain in a sound bite.
Putin is scoring some pretty big wins on the world stage, and he’s doing so with the witting and unwitting assistance of trump and his supporters, amongst others. We would do well to keep our attention on that, lest we allow Putin’s brand of criminal authoritarianism to metastasize further.
The entire election process has become too corrupt. Now even the advertisements/editorials have become “weaponized” by enemies of the U.S. I would be in favor or not allowing any campaigning to occur until 1 month before an election, all election monies coming from the federal government, and disallowing PACs/interest groups, etc. to post independent ads. This last, I’m sure, would be fought as contrary to the 1st Amendment but it’s become like shouting ‘fire’ in a crowded theater when there really isn’t one.
I find myself inclined to spout multiple obscenities. This is BS of the highest order. There’s not a shred of evidence to support Clinton’s (and almost the entirety of corporate media) claims. But the war machine, that she and so many politicians in both parties are beholden to, is a master at McCarthy-ist character assassination. Gotta keep blowing up wedding parties and farm hands, ya know.
… and all of this has been brought to you by the citizens united decision that has allowed unlimited money to mislead voters. Advertising works, and it is not dependent on being true or false, it is the way the mind works. With enough money, you can sell any idea…. and now back to today’s headlines…
Too many stupid people quoting the corporate controlled media are suffering from Dunning-Kruger syndrome. If you believe the BS you get from their warmongering overpaid corporate whores, you are the problem and those of us who go to the media that is supported by readers and not Wall Street are aware that y’all are definitely unaware. The corporate controlled media is making sure that you are so stupid, you don’t even know you are stupid. Tax the rich, they can afford it.
The two freshmen Congresswomen are smart and active, but I’m not sure their endorsement should be given too much weight. They need seasoning in their public service and practice in thinking before they speak. How you say something is as important as what you say. V O T E 2020.
Add the House Republicans into the 2nd panel since they burst into the room to disrupt the impeachment inquiry. The Dems are following proper procedures – ALL witnesses need to be interviewed before info is released so the information doesn’t get tainted.
The Repubs just want to intimidate witnesses since their strategy of ignoring subpoenas isn’t working.
The latest: 2 dozen GOP members, led by @mattgaetz entered the secure hearing room (SCIF) to interrupt witness testimony in the #ImpeachmentInquiry as they demand access, despite not being committee members. They’re complaining it’s a “Soviet-style process”. IF THIS ISNT a blatant OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE I DONT KNOW WHAT IS! If the DEMS did this, there would be an immediate investigation and deflection agenda….OMG! They’re turning barbaric and will do anything to protect that bastard in the WH.

Of course, the real issue is where she’s ranking in the polls… is it at the bottom, or just close to it?

Trump has some high profile endorsements too: Putin, Kim, Assad, Bin-Salman. The list goes on.

All of Putin’s new friends are Trump’s friends too.
