The real meaning of MAGA

But you already knew that.


New Poll: Bernie and Warren 20% each, Biden 19%

According to this Monmouth poll released today. Seems people are finally waking up to the best candidates. Sanders and Warren are gaining ground, Biden losing it. Sanders and Warren should be the final two, and whichever gets the nomination the other should be their running mate. That combo would get the majority of the youth, working class and liberal professional vote. The recalcitrant establishment Dems would have no choice but to vote for them.

"The poll finds a virtual three-way tie among Sanders (20%), Warren (20%), and Biden (19%) in the presidential nomination preferences of registered Democrats and Democratic-leaning voters across the country. Compared to Monmouth’s June poll, these results represent an increase in support for both Sanders (up from 14%) and Warren (up from 15%), and a significant drop for Biden (down from 32%)."

Emma nails why the DNC voted against a climate debate

Because the DNC wants fossil fuel money and to protect their establishment candidates from getting their asses kicked in such a debate. Never mind that the Amazon is burning and that our climate is deteriorating faster than even experts expected. Never mind that climate chaos will negatively impact the lives of millions of people. The DNC only cares about its own power and any progressive candidate that challenges that must be thwarted at any cost, even the cost of human lives and environmental devastation.

El Camino: A Breaking Bad Movie

Here's a preview. Us BB fans are really excited about this.

Sanders at the DNC meeting

He emphasizes that the Dems cannot win without an unprecedented grassroots uprising, getting out the vote. We need the youth and working class vote and we won't get it with some moderate candidate. That entails bold, progressive policies necessary to bring out that vote: Medicare For All, a living wage and good benefits, financial reform, fair taxation, the climate crisis and renewable energy, free colleges and canceling student debt, gun law reform including an assault rifle ban, eliminating racism and white nationalism, humane immigration reform.

Incremental change won't do it; we need a transformative revolution. Anything less is playing it safe and a losing strategy that gives Dump and the Dumpsters 4 more years to complete the destruction of our democracy. Our choice is quite clear if we want to win and save that democracy.

Hill TV interviews Sanders

On his Kentucky visit, where he goes after Moscow Mitch big time for obstructing every piece of House legislation. Sanders climate plan also provides renewable energy work for those now employed in the oil industry as part of the transition.

Hartmann on Dump's mental illness

We also have to look at the mental illness of Dumpsters, who unfailing support anything that comes out of the mentally ill Presidunce's mouth, which he mostly pulls out of his ass. From the video blurb.

"Trump, the NRA, and the Republican Party keep talking about mental illness as the core of our problem right now in America. And, indeed, we have a major mental illness problem in our country right now. It’s in the White House. Our president is mentally ill, and until we recognize that, acknowledge that, and begin a national conversation about it there can be no solution. Donald Trump lies, he continuously contradictions himself, and his erratic behavior are all symptoms of his severe mental illness. Many of America‘s mental health professionals have recognized this, but a serious discussion of the president’s mental illness has not yet moved out of the realm of mental health professionals and into our mainstream discussions."

The shoulders upon which Bernie stands

Some great shoulders supporting a great future President.


McGrath ad against Moscow Mitch

As I noted before, McGrath is no progressive. But she does have the sort of values that fights for justice for we the forgotten ones. And she'll be a hell of a lot better than that traitor McTurtle. She offers our best chance to unseat that Moscow collaborator, given her military dedication to our country in fighting against just such enemies as Russia.
