Let us be serious for a moment. This is not a moral failing of Sanders. Greene and Sanders are both paid for operatives of multinational banks who work together in an ongoing operation to manipulate public opinion. Sanders has never called out state crimes like COVID and 9.11? Why? Because the banks who call the shots want to force those seeking truth on state crimes to back the militant far right groups that they have already prepared. The purpose of this show is to make it look like you have no choice but to back the militaristic right. What the bankers do not want is an organized left that demands that their assets be seized and they be jailed. None of the right wing is actually demanding action, they are just channeling anger.

I don’t agree with this take. I don’t think any leftist is fooled by Bernie’s lying ass, or that the racist MTG all of a sudden has a soul.

The problem is there are very few leftists in the US. Many people call themselves one, but are liberals in reality. So my disagreement was over semantics more than anything. Otherwise, I agree with your take.

Hi Texas

Then again, I never thought Tucker Carlson would make sense!

What is happening to Tucker Carlson? He is getting educated!

Actually Tucker Carlson is no yokel - he has a priceless education. St George's is not famous or a "brand name" in the eyes of the masses, but you get a world class education in the liberal arts there. And the same is true of Trinity College.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tucker_Carlson

"....Carlson was briefly enrolled at Collège du Léman, a boarding school in the Canton of Geneva in French-speaking Switzerland, but said he was "kicked out".[86] He attained his secondary education at St. George's School, a boarding school in Middletown, Rhode Island, where he started dating his future wife, Susan Andrews, the headmaster's daughter.[87] He then spent four years attending Trinity College in Hartford, Connecticut and graduated in 1991 with a B.A. in history.[88]

However, the history of his career shows that Mr Carlsen has, from that privileged position, spent his time systematically enabling and supporting and spreadiing ignorance, demagoguery and and outright racism. For decades on end.

We cannot say he didn't know better - you only have to look at his education to understand that he has no valid excuse of "ignorance" for the many vile things he has said and done.

The leopard does not change its spots, they say. I would give it some time and see if he has actually changed. I doubt it. I think he is just infliltrating.

For sure. Anytime someone like him or MGT does this about face and feigns morality, it screams paid actor. Much like Bernie been a sheepdog for the Dems, these two are emerging as sheepdog for the republicans.

I refuse to believe these parties are redeemable, because they aren’t. These parties aren’t fluid! They have always represented the elite and the elite only. They will always be capitalist, racist, and genocidal.

The only reason the US and Western Europe are rich nations, is because of their lack of any humanity.

Fortunes built off of African slaves. Fortunes built off of stealing natural resources. Fortunes built of murdering and stealing peoples land.

Then they have the nerve to vilify the very people they’ve murdered and stole from.

I’m ashamed of this country! Not because of the sociopathic elite. I’m ashamed of my brothers and sisters that are soulless. They punch down. They blame each other.

They don’t have the ability to think for themselves, yet they only think of themselves. US liberals may be the most self serving and immoral people in existence, besides the Israelis.

The people of the US deserve what’s coming. 70% or so vote for Republicans or Democrats in every election. This means 70% of Americans are soulless, genocidal, fucks.

Only one country outpaces the immorality of the US and its Israel, where 85 - 90% are genocidal maniacs.

I live in the US and I would gladly give my life to stop what’s happening.

I’ve gone through the motions of trying to stop what’s happening, but protests and writing politicians ain’t going to cut it.

Aaron Bushnell was a kind soul, that deserves a higher circle in the afterlife than I do, but I’m not going out like that.?

What happened to the BlackStone executive caused fear. They are so scared, they made up a story of CTE and the NFL.

I don’t condone striking fear into anyone, so don’t get me wrong. 🤞🏻

The elite can’t do shit without us. We are their drivers, their chefs, their assistants, their waiters, their maintenance workers, their construction workers, their babysitters, etc.

When you go to protests, make like minded friends. Make plans, brainstorm, figure out ways to disrupt the system. We need ideas, and we need to recognize our enemies.

If there was ever a time for class solidarity, it’s right now and it’s urgent.

We have the power! It’s time we realize this and we take it back.

This is about your kids, your family, humanity in general. Show me what you’re made of men/women!

I don’t disagree with your perspective, but knowing who the narrative producers are doesn’t make the narratives go away. The absence of a left in the recognized political arena means that the recognized political arena will never achieve credibility once a sizable portion of the public understands that its all theater.

Following that thought, exposing the theater players as illegitimate representatives of the people is never a bad use of time or resources. When more folks grasp that domestic regime change has to happen for meaningful change to ever be realized, the empire will be in trouble.

I think the demonization of the supporters of Israel by Americans is concerning. The Americans need to look at their own country before passing absolute judgement on who’s evil and who is acceptable.

I'll consider cutting back on talking about the demonic Israel when they stop getting funding and military support/ordinance from "my" government. I might even stop if the Israeli citizenry throws out their sinister government, retracts their Palestinian land grab to what the Rothschilds got them in 1948 and pulls out their settlers from Palestinian territory, takes down the concentration camp border fences around Palestine, and get every member of their military back inside those 1948 borders instead of trampling the territory of every single surrounding country.

until then I'll demonize those demons all I want as an American. fuck Israel and fuck Israel support.

I support attacking Israel for this holocaust, but I think too many Amurkan patriots limit their finger pointing to Israel and Netanyahu, and that is shoddy thinking. And too much shoddy thinking leads to personality politics, racist slurs and hate-filled attacks that avoid the obvious fact that Israel can do nothing without orders and dollars and unlimited weapons from the USA.

nearly unlimited dollars from the USA.

I could cry to think how close we'd be in America to the 1940s science fiction magazine projections of cities and society if we'd applied to local infrastructure and citizenry the $158,655,000,000+ (plus 2024 and 2025 above average funding not listed) this government document claims Israel has sucked out of our country since 1949: https://sgp.fas.org/crs/mideast/RL33222.pdf

Can someone actually tell me something:

IF these people are still living in Israhell....why?

At the moment there are many Countries refusing Israelis. One of these Countries is Greece (not the Govt.) but the people.

IF you look at Northern Cyprus (where the British have a major Naval and Air base) the Israelis are buying land/building Synagogues and Schools.

The Northern Cypriots do NOT want them.

The BRITISH Govt. is making a NEW Israhell.

Just look at the BIG picture here: Always the British and Americans.

Every single person in the UK needs to vote out Starmer. It's coming.

What a load of Bull Shit!💩 💩💩💩 Bernie Sanders has raged against the GENOCIDE of Palestinians for over 30 Yrs! He is the very one that was calling out this horror back then, I learned about this from Bernie! Trump joined with Netanyahu, to wipe out all the Palestinians in Gaza, so they could steal the beachfront property, to build expensive hotels! MGT is RIGHT! To fight back against this genocide!

Stephanie you my friend are full of shit. Sanders has been a lapdog sheeep dog all along. I know of many fighting against the takeover of the US Israeli private Intel. Bernie will not touch the subject. He defends Israel right and left and he is not at all interested in a serious conversation on genocide. He uses vague attention getting statements and then runs away and hides. I will spare everyone the documentation of Sanders treason here, but if you are interested, happy to share. We are fearless. Sanders is not only a coward he is a pay to play operative. Period

Kuchinich was much more principled and thus driven from office permanently. If you want to see some decency in a progressive politician, look at him

Gentry Cooper's avatar

Correct Emmanual. I remember Kuccinich when he was mayor of Cleveland. A very principled man. And yes of course, the banking, corporate, financial, capitalist powers would keep him out of government or if they couldn't find some way to destroy him politically. And failing that, they would have offed him in some manner.

What is a 'hero?' If a person speaks truth they are normal people.

Nick Douglas's avatar

Jenny that would be correct in an absolute term living in a normal world. But in a corrupt fascist USA (and larger west) anyone who speaks truth is a "hero". A little hero, but compared to others a hero nonetheless. If Kucinich who was mostly alone (and there were other isolated voices) was an existential danger to zionist control of USA he would have been physically terminated.

I understand your passion on the subject. Stephanie needed hope and clings to that hope as I do. There is no one we can count on today, no one. If they are not taking the stage now they will have no chance. Most likely we will get a Schumer look alike. I am supporting Kshama Sawant for Congress even thought I do not live in her state. I wish she had been born in the u.s. Kshama is a hero as well as brilliant, kind and loving. See I still have hope : )

Of course, you are a liar. Read this from an article by the Jewish Journalist Philip Weiss: "This rot sadly extends to Bernie Sanders, the leading moral voice for Democrats, whose refusal to call a genocide a genocide surely reflects his youth volunteering at an Israeli kibbutz."

I supported Bernie having met him in 1993 through a friend teaching in Vermont. I even have am email he wrote me on AOL. Bernie after his failed second campaign against Genocide Joe altered his stance to become far more pro israel. Bernie has stood on many a stage up until recently saying israel has a right to defend itself. Bernie is a smart man , very smart which many don't realize. Bernie knew and knows israel is killing mostly children, one half of Gaza are children. Bernie failed us and himself. I want back my 4800$ for his presidential campaigns, he can keep the money for the Congressional races. I returned his autographed books.

imo, it has been a moral failing of sanders for a long time. mtg's default position is that of a moral failure ('maga wingnut'), but that aside, sanders and aoc (recent iron dome support vote) indeed use their feigned opposition to outright nazi's as an excuse for their obvious moral failures. imo, one should never imply from those fake partisan dogfights that they're not absolute moral failures. all of them are. it's a requisite to be in that position.

Why does Trump declare that Obama has immunity in the Obamagate? (Russ*a Hoax)? https://x.com/its_The_Dr/status/1948763653877965251

I don’t get it.

Sitting side by side in Carter’s funeral ceremony (Jan 2025).

Obama is one of the worst traitors from everything we read (Patriot Act, forever wars, DARPA Brain Initiative, removing Smith-Mundt Act allowing propaganda by decree.. was a high-stake CIA deep-state asset; birth certificate and Columbia degree falsified).
