Schon gar nicht, wenn es den wirtschaftlichen Interessen der USA oder der EU im Wege steht.

The Sanders factor: Establishment Democrats are beginning to panic
The risk of backlash for an anti-Sanders Democrat is real. A Democratic super-PAC was about to run an anti-Sanders attack ad in Iowa, but Sanders beat them to the punch. He posted a video to his supporters arguing that “the big money interests . . . are now running ads against us in Iowa. The billionaire class is getting nervous.”

Unable To Make Her Case In Person, Warren Leans On Ayanna Pressley In Iowa
Elected to Congress in 2018, Pressley is one of four members of “The Squad” — a group of freshmen congresswomen that includes Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota. But unlike the other Squad members, who all endorsed Bernie Sanders, Pressley chose Warren, and is now a national co-chair for her campaign.
„Each one of them [@AOC , @AyannaPressley , @RashidaTlaib , @IlhanMN ] has more people in their district than the entire state of Wyoming, Vermont, Alaska, North Dakota…they represent a whole lot of people.“ -@JoyAnnReid „Pressley‘s mantra was ‚Change Cannot Wait.'“ -@drjlastword

Brexit is a ‚historic warning sign‘ for the European Union, says Macron
Brexit is a „historic warning sign“ for the European Union, French President Emmanuel Macron said hours before Britain‘s departure from the EU, adding that it meant „we need more Europe“.
A glorious victory for democracy: Brexit is the most stirring political achievement of the postwar period.
We did it. Against all the odds. Against the barbs and defamations and underhand tactics of a hysterical establishment. Against a Remainer Parliament that had been hell-bent on reversing what we voted for. Against the best efforts of Remainer agitators at home and the bureaucratic machine in Brussels to prevent our democratic voice from being heard.

Des Moines Register Poll of Iowa Caucusgoers Abruptly Shelved
The survey, published by The Des Moines Register for 76 years, is considered the gold standard for polling in the notoriously hard-to-predict state and is carefully watched as an early indicator of strength in the caucuses.
David Chalian, CNN’s political director, said on-air that CNN and The Register decided “out of an abundance of caution” not to release the poll after the network learned of a potential problem with the way the survey was conducted.
