Salvador Dali Portrait of my father 1920 • Bernie Pledges To End Prosecuting Whistleblowers Under Espionage Act (IC) • Everyone Is a Russian As
[See the full post at: Debt Rattle October 23 2019]I kid you not, Bernie doesn’t know who Reality Winner is. While AOC has only heard her name, it seems.
These are the people who should protect Julian Assange. They’re just posturing.
Appalling; but these are part of the choices?
No wonder the U.S. is third rate and failing/falling…….Ilargi
I realize you’re reporting current events, pretty much as they happen, but, Brexit?
This is a clown show; theater of the absurd; tragi-comedy par excellance; not!
However, when is enough, enough?
Personally, I’m done with it…

A hive of lesser evils , a little tidbit from Helen of DesTRoy’s Democratic Party Zombification story
(Look for the cat-and-cake-copy-of-cat picture)
Even if Clinton does not run, her influence permeates the party. “I’ve talked to most of them,” she revealed on ABC’s The View earlier this month, slyly hinting that previous contests’ frontrunners a year before the election had failed to secure the nomination. Instead of Sanders and Gabbard, the Democratic National Committee is propping up Biden and grooming as his second Elizabeth Warren, the neoliberal wolf in sheep’s clothing trying to steal Sanders’ thunder by insisting she’s all he represents plus a pair of X chromosomes. Decked out in borrowed rhetoric and forged identity politics credentials, she earnestly presents herself as a leftist, hoping no one remembers she was registered as a Republican until her 40s.
Lest anyone be fooled by Warren’s “radical” act, former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid recently gushed “I know she’s pragmatic, just wait.” Such an endorsement should be a death knell for her progressive support, especially after the revelation that she has been in constant contact with Clinton. Warren emphasizes in communications with donors that she doesn’t actually intend to upend the status quo, and has flip-flopped repeatedly on accepting big-dollar donors and PACs, only rejecting them once she’d stockpiled a healthy war chest from those very donors.

Complicated. Pelosi is right, she doesn’t *have* to call a vote. But then she has no “inquiry” and therefore no subpoena power. It’s Congress that imbues the committee or inquiry with its power, and without that authorization, it’s just some citizen-congressmen saying “please.” However, not calling that vote suits her fine, as she can pretend to do something, while rigging the election by bashing Cheeto, arguably legally, just like they did investigating a candidate’s children and politician in the Mueller investigation and Trump Jr case. Whatever.
Anyway, so Graham’s resolution is also dumb and has no teeth, nor is it possible they wouldn’t hold a Senate trial. Sure, have opinions, why not? However, to me this is Graham doing three things: one, pointing out again that Pelosi’s doing nothing, with no authority, and their process is deeply illegal, two, encouraging them to impeach, and three, making it easy by pretending they wouldn’t have a trial that calls Pelosi, Biden, Clinton, and Obama to the witness stand under oath, surrounding by a warehouse of internal documents.
Politics. Whatever.
“The 2020 Election Is Shaping Up to Be an Expensive Run (ZH)”
I wouldn’t worry about it: they haven’t spent the money or done anything. Ever. Yet. One guy lost his pension and the billionaires replaced it 10-fold to his GoFundMe. All criminal activities are unprosecuted, all CNN articles rest unchallenged. Gosh, from the screaming, you’d think something had happened. Fake screaming and fake outrage from our fake actions, fake reported, and fake believed. What do I mean? The official line is that the U.S. is a fascist dictatorship that runs concentration camps for immigrants and gays, so Booker and Castro cross the border to escort transgender illegals INTO the country with the death camps. Shouldn’t they be escorting them OUT? So which half of their statements do they not believe? Or does nobody believe anything because in #AntiLogos, objective truth, and therefore logic, does not exist? Pick one, I don’t care which.
“EU Moves Towards Brexit Delay as Johnson Seeks Election to Break Impasse (R.)”
Rumor has it, they positioned like this: the U.K. is helpless, so BoJo said, ‘Hey, if you don’t look out, we’ll stay IN the EU, and just break all the rules.’ The EU said, ‘No you can’t, because we’d penalize you more than it’s worth.’ At which BoJo says, ‘I don’t think so because if we align with Trump, the U.S. can unilaterally punish you far MORE than you’d ever get out of squeezing the far smaller U.K. So do you want to negotiate or what?’ Grrr. That said, there may be similarly functioning land-mines inside the agreement that from the surface looks like May’s. …Or so rumor has it.
“They should investigate the links between CIA and Facebook/Google.”
That would be interesting, but Obama repealed the law making it illegal to propagandize your own people. …For no reason, naturally. Of course he didn’t repeal the law right then because he and the DS planned to USE it or anything. I’m a coincidence theorist and that does not seem connected at all.
“Biden or Buttigieg’s public option, over time, will either serve as a weak alternative to private coverage, with high premiums and substandard coverage. Or, backed by government bargaining power, it will outshine private insurance and gradually supplant it.”
The usual. Also the reason for installing the HMOs in 1990 that so critically undermined and destroyed the previous health care pattern and forced it to become a vertical monopoly. …Thus to say “we have no choice” but nationalized health care, whereby you cut off health care to dissidents and whistleblowers like all good Socialist Dictatorships do. Meanwhile, prices are 8-20x the norm, and no one in States or Congress will reign it in. We already have a system that arguably has zero effective health care for infinite cost, but no one wants to move backwards into, say the mid-90s when it was only half as bad, by re-training the 2/3rds of new paper-pushers to be clinic workers or LPNs or something useful. Nope! The answer to high prices is to make the TAXPAYER pay the 20-fold cost increase, not add COMPETITION, break monopoly, and enforce 100-year-old antitrust law which has existed every day of their illegal grab and price rockets. ‘Cause how would profits rise then? And when people are dying by the millions of high cost, adding fascism, a union of corporation and state is the only way profits can rise further. So obviously that’s what we do! Right Warren? Right Trump? Nod your heads on command like the lobbyists direct you to while I die in a ditch, unable to call an ambulance. Thanks.
