Nina Turner gave another unbelievable emotional speech for Bernie Sanders! Preach on!
Archiv: (successfully rigged) US Democratic Party presidential election primaries 2020 / zombie democrats vs Bernie Sanders / scorched democracy tactic
Thank you @ninaturner for your fearlessness and your unrelenting commitment to truth telling. These are the qualities that make you powerful and there is no super pac that can change that.
Nina lost for a very simple reason. In the closing stretch THIS happened: „Democratic Majority for Israel, a hybrid PAC/super PAC that has spent $1.2 million on ads supporting Brown and opposing Turner“ – & the ads viciously lied about her. The lies stuck
Turner Vs. Brown: A Showdown Between Progressive And Establishment Dems
The special election in Ohio featuring candidates Nina Turner and Shontel Brown has become a reportedly „acrimonious and bitter“ battle between the progressive and establishment wings of the Democratic party, as these factions go all out to support their preferred candidate. Journalists Eugene Robinson and Jeremy W. Peters join The ReidOut with their analysis.
There’s a fight for the future of the Democratic Party happening in Ohio
South Carolina Rep. Jim Clyburn, the third-ranking Democrat in the House, told CNN recently that Biden needed all the allies he could get in the House, a clear shot at Turner’s past negative comments about the 46th President.
Third Way, a centrist Democratic group, is spending $500,000 on a series of ads driving that same message.
State Board of Elections Approves Software To Tabulate Ranked-Choice Primary Results
(25.05.2021)
The approval comes after more than 18 months of back and forth between the city and state over the process required to test and implement the Universal Ranked-Choice Voting Tabulator, the software selected by the city which was developed by a non-partisan non-profit called The Ranked Choice Resource Center. It wasn’t until January of this year that state officials finally agreed to allow the mandatory testing and certification to take place.
135.000 Teststimmen gezählt: Chaos bei NY-Vorwahl
Wegen des Gewichts möglicher Nennungen für Platz zwei, ist aber noch offen, wer das Rennen machen wird. In der liberalen Hochburg New York gilt ein Sieger der demokratischen Vorwahl auch als naheliegender Gewinner der eigentlichen Wahl – und damit als Nachfolger von Bill de Blasio, der nach zwei Amtszeiten aufhören muss.
New York’s mayoral primary puts ranked-choice voting under the national spotlight
(27.06.2021)
My firm, Schoen-Cooperman Research, has also worked on referenda aimed at passing ranked-choice voting in cities and states across the country.

I support the method because, by design, it delivers a more representative outcome and gives voters more choice than a winner-take-all system. In addition, ranked-choice voting discourages negative campaigning and elects fewer extreme candidates.
BREAKING: Election officials in New York City have retracted their latest vote totals for the Democratic primary for mayor. They say 135,000 test ballots were inadvertently included in the count.
Regarding the US presidential election in 2020: We are done with democracy simulations
(7. Februar 2020)
After the Iowa fraud and Bernie Sanders‘ Al Gore style capitulation (no recount / „recalculation“ of an in broad daylight rigged caucus) and the deafening silence of each and every progressive lawmaker, even from the Squad, we do not support any candidate in this election and furthermore question its authenticity and legitimacy. From this day on, we will rarely post any news to this election-without-a-choice.
We would like to ask you: would the Trumpolini in the White House watch, just for even a few hours, the Republican Party doing this to his campaign? The progressives in the Democratic Party let this happen for days and kept their head down. And Millions of good-willing, hard working people on the ground were let down and deceived, again.
We’re not going along with this dirty game, which can be played again and again and again on people who tolerate it once without resistance.
Notably, we have calculated with this development years ago and described a possibility how Bernie Sanders could have become US president (article in German). Let that sink in, just for a minute or two.
Since decades, only (far) right-wingers, warmongers and egoists have real candidates and political parties.
So, „vote“ yourself.
How the Iowa caucuses came ‘crashing down,’ under the watchful eye of the DNC
(Feb. 16, 2020)
The DNC ordered and paid for a security audit of the software, which was completed by NCC Group, a Britain-based cybersecurity firm. Out of the review, which also involved threat assessment conducted with the national party as well as officials in Iowa and Nevada, came directions to guard the name of the vendor, and to take the software live as late as possible to prevent it from getting into the hands of hackers, according to multiple people who participated or had knowledge of the exercises.
County party chair thinks internal audit was too kind to Iowa Democratic Party
(Dec. 16, 2020)
After the caucus, the IDP hired a pair of Democratic lawyers: Nick Klinefeldt, who was a federal attorney appointed by President Barack Obama, and former Iowa Attorney General Bonnie Campbell. They were tasked with identifying and determining the cause of problems that occurred during the 2020 Iowa Caucuses, with the results of their investigation being released to the public on Saturday morning.
Iowa autopsy report: DNC meddling led to caucus debacle
(12.12.2020)
The audit states the conversion tool had coding errors that spit out inaccurate numbers and caused confusion about the accuracy of the results, eventually leading to delays in reporting. But the state party’s app never malfunctioned nor was hacked, the report concludes.
Investigator: DNC Was “Directly Involved” in Iowa Caucus App Development, Countering DNC Denial
(22.12.2020)
The DNC’s meddling, which included a last-minute demand that developers of the Shadow app create a special software that would allow the DNC real-time access to the raw numbers before they went public, didn’t sit well with Zogby.
“Why would [the DNC] need to see that?” Zogby said about the DNC’s insistence on access to the raw caucus results before they went public. “Why wouldn’t you trust the state party to make the determination?”
In the transcript from the closed-session meeting held by the state party, members suggested that the DNC’s goal was to strip Iowa of its prestigious first-in-the-nation status.
After the Deep State Sabotaged His Presidential Bid, Bernie Sanders Mocks Those Who Believe it Exists
Also ridiculing „rigged elections“ and „fake news“ — two other weapons used on him — the Vermont Senator’s relationship to the Democratic Party descends from loyal support to abject subservience.
Biden hints Sanders, Warren won’t join his Cabinet despite push from progressives
Speaking with NBC News‘ Lester Holt in his first interview since the Nov. 3 election, Biden said the two progressive senators – who ran their own unsuccessful campaigns for president – were key to helping pass his „very ambitious, very progressive agenda.“
Note also how at the bottom they go from 1,344,469 vote totals to 1,072,844. Which is obviously not possible. @MichiganDems you’ve been exposed.
(12.03.2020)
“The exit poll was subsequently adjusted* for conformity with the final computerized vote count.” THE 2020 DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY WAS RIGGED.
Electoral fraud, sometimes referred to as election fraud, election manipulation or vote rigging, is illegal interference with the process of an election, either by increasing the vote share of the favored candidate, depressing the vote share of the rival candidates, or both.
States which had been projected to expect large Sanders wins, corresponded with raw data on exit polls confirming the expected Sanders wins.
Computerized vote counts however, showed very large Biden wins. The DNC accepted computer vote counts and CHANGED NUMBERS on exit polls to suggest that Biden won.
Are we witnessing a dishonest election? A between state comparison based on the used voting procedures of the 2016 Democratic Party Primary for the Presidency of the United States of America
(June 7, 2016)
Given the stakes in the outcome of the American presidential elections, ensuring the integrity of the electoral process is of the utmost importance. Are the results we are witnessing in the 2016 primary elections trustworthy? While Donald Trump enjoyed a clear and early edge over his Republican rivals, the Democratic contest between former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Senator Bernard Sanders has been far more competitive. At present, Secretary Clinton enjoys an apparent advantage over Sanders. Is this claimed advantage legitimate? We contend that it is not, and suggest an explanation for the advantage: States that are at risk for election fraud in 2016 systematically and overwhelmingly favor Secretary Clinton. We provide converging evidence for this claim.
First, we show that it is possible to detect irregularities in the 2016 Democratic Primaries by comparing the states that have hard paper evidence of all the placed votes to states that do
not have this hard paper evidence. Second, we compare the final results in 2016 to the
discrepant exit polls. Furthermore, we show that no such irregularities occurred in the 2008
competitive election cycle involving Secretary Clinton against President Obama. As such, we
find that in states wherein voting fraud has the highest potential to occur, systematic efforts may
have taken place to provide Secretary Clinton with an exaggerated margin of support.
Stanford Study Proves Election Fraud through Exit Poll Discrepancies
(June 15, 2016)
What’s True
Two researchers (presumably graduate students) from Stanford University and Tilburg University co-authored a paper asserting they uncovered information suggesting widespread primary election fraud favoring Hillary Clinton had occurred across multiple states.
What’s False
The paper was not a „Stanford Study,“ and its authors acknowledged their claims and research methodology had not been subject to any form of peer review or academic scrutiny.
10 ways the Democratic primary has been rigged from the start
(30.03.2016)
Concerned Sanders would win Nevada, Sen. Harry Reid, the former Senate Majority Leader and most powerful elected official in Nevada, as it later emerged, arranged a plan with owners of Las Vegas casinos, where many caucuses were being held, and other employers, to ensure Clinton would win. The Nevada caucuses were then rigged with massive voting irregularities such as casino owners orchestrating which workers would be allowed to vote and, in clear intimidation, openly monitoring how they voted.
Vote tampering also occurred in other states, most recently in Arizona where on election day, polling locations were sharply cut forcing many voters to stand in line for up to five hours in the heat, with some leaving before casting a vote.

Bernie’s Back Rally with AOC in New York
(Streamed live on Oct 19, 2019)
Sandsack Joe
(25. April 2019)
Angesichts des geradezu obszön undemokratischen Vorwahlsystems der „Demokratischen Partei“ fragten wir uns im Februar, was Bernie Sanders wirklich will – gewinnen oder nur die größte Verräterpartei auf dem Planeten und damit das Zwei-Parteien-System der Vereinigten Staaten retten?
Mittlerweile hat Bernie Sanders bewiesen, dass er tatsächlich gewinnen will. Und spätestens seit seinem Durchmarsch sogar im erzkonservativen TV Sender „Fox News“ muss sowohl dem jetzigen U.S.-Präsidenten, als auch der Nomenklatura, klar geworden sein, dass er gewinnen kann.
Das – und nur das – ist der Grund, warum Joe Biden jetzt antritt. Seine Präsidentschaftskandidatur hat nur den einzigen Sinn und Zweck Bernie Sanders irgendwie zu verhindern. Und das auch um den Preis von vier weiteren Jahren von Donald Trump im Weißen Haus.
Alle, wirklich alle, müssen wissen, dass Joe Biden gegen das Original Donald Trump – der eine lediglich konsequente Umsetzung von Bidens eigenem Charakter darstellt – nur verlieren kann.
Dass Biden es nun genau anders herum darstellt – er müsse jetzt quasi die Welt vor Trump retten, nur er könne das noch – gehört zum Abgrund der Heuchelei und des Verrats, den Biden repräsentiert und dem er jetzt mit der Macht eines Cäsars über die Welt vier oder acht Jahre dienen will.
Obama tears into Trump at Philadelphia rally: ‚The next 13 days will matter for decades to come‘
Obama framed the election as a battle for democracy.
“Our democracy is not gonna work if the people who are supposed to be our leaders lie every day and just make things up,” Obama said. “This notion of truthfulness and democracy and citizenship and being responsible — these aren’t Republican or Democratic principles. They’re American principles. … We need to reclaim them.”

Biden leads Trump. So did Hillary Clinton. For Democrats, it’s a worrisome campaign deja vu
Democrats went to the polls last time certain they would elect the first woman ever to become president, and were punched in the face with a Trump upset. This time they feel the punch coming from a thousand miles away. The worry is visceral and widespread, unassuaged by Biden’s lead in the polls.

Joe Biden just said 200 million people could die from the coronavirus by the time he finishes his speech. That’s almost two-thirds of the United States’ population.

New People’s Party Rises Amid Grim Election Options
(31.08.2020)
In a surreal year that has spiraled from surging hopes for a Bernie Sanders presidency to today’s pandemic-hemmed fear and a tight election between centrist Democrats and fascistic Republicans, now may be just the right time for a new political party.
As voters face a dismal “lesser of two evils” election in which a Biden/Harris ticket represents the only alternative to four more years of Trumpian fascism and racism, the Movement for a People’s Party aims to prevent such dreary and sparse choices in the future.
The establishment successfully smeared Bernie out of the 2016 primary w/ lies about him being a sexist w/ a “race problem.” The same tactic gets recycled w/ Alex Morse, slandered by partisans as a sex abuser. Easy to manipulate liberal voters w/ these defamatory woke tactics.
Can Biden’s Center Hold?
After a career built on incremental progress, Joe Biden is promising a Presidency of transformational change. The election will test whether his campaign can bring together a divided Party and a beleaguered country.
Every cable news pundit told you that you definitely shouldn’t pick @BernieSanders in primaries because Republicans will call him a socialist, Marxist & communist. These are literally the words used to describe Biden tonight at #RNC2020. That’s what they call us no matter what!
I still don’t know why they insisted on so many speeches being live — especially when Michelle Obama’s keynote and several other appearances were pre-taped — but it gave us this wonderful bit of Bernie Sanders that came through via satellite.
The all-virtual Democratic National Convention, explained
“This is a very serious time”: The coronavirus has reshaped the Democratic National Convention.
Trump indicates election won’t be ‚fair‘ if universal mail-in voting allowed
In another exchange, the president said Democrats will struggle to unite at their convention this week, as many of the more progressive members of the party balk at a ticket including former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif.
„These are the same people I beat last time and they’re not gonna unite because they can’t unite, they don’t know how to unite,“ Trump said. „Also, Bernie [Sanders] is very unhappy, but actually, Biden went further left than Bernie wanted him to and Bernie’s still unhappy.“
What I ordered, what I got
Bloomberg to speak at Democratic convention, angering some liberals
Bloomberg jumped into the Democratic presidential primary long after much of the field, arguing that he did so to stop the rise of more liberal candidates like Sens. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts. The former mayor and businessman, who has been a Republican, a Democrat and an independent in his career, ended up spending more than $1 billion on his campaign, an astonishing number that dwarfed every other candidate in the race.
.@JamaalBowmanNY DID NOT COME TO PLAY: „Bernie, if the Democratic establishment didn’t gang up on you and jump you, you would have been the nominee for the Democratic Party. You out-raised everyone. They had to jump you in order to beat you. So I just want to say that.“

„I don’t know what the hell he’s saying,“ Hannity said. „What’s going on here? Democrats refuse to talk about it in public. The mob and the media, they’re not talking about it in public. But I can tell you, I know for a fact in private, they are telling me and many other people they know it is a serious problem.
REPORTER: “Have you taken a cognitive test?” BIDEN: “Why the hell would I take a test?! C’mon man. That’s like saying, ‘You — before you got on this program you took a test where you’re taking cocaine or not, what do you think? Huh? Are you a junkie?!’”
Biden rules out in-person appearance at Democratic convention
Biden „will no longer travel to Milwaukee and will instead address the nation and accept the Democratic nomination from his home state of Delaware,“ the party said in a statement, announcing that no speakers would physically attend the August 17-20 convention, which will be entirely virtual.
Biden clarifies he has not taken cognitive test
„Come on, man. That’s like saying you, before you got on this program, you take a test where you’re taking cocaine or not. What do you think? Huh? Are you a junkie?“ Biden said, becoming testy with the reporter, CBS’s Errol Barnett, who asked whether he had taken a cognitive test.
Democratic Officials Tell Members of Congress to Skip the Convention
Democratic officials have instructed senators, members of Congress and party delegates not to physically attend their national convention this summer, a sign of the ever-shrinking aspirations for their big campaign event in the face of a surge in coronavirus cases in the United States.
The directive, issued Thursday, ensures that little will happen at the convention site in Milwaukee beyond speeches from former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., his vice-presidential nominee and a handful of other top party leaders.

Stay Alive, Joe Biden – Democrats need little from the front-runner beyond his corporeal presence.
(24.03.2020)
Two days before the South Carolina primary that would reverse his political fortunes and redirect the course of the Democratic nomination, Joe Biden’s campaign for president announced a hastily planned event in McClellanville, South Carolina. The national campaign press was alerted that Biden would enter full battle mode at this stop, that the proverbial gloves were about to come off ahead of the kill-or-be-killed primary on Saturday, and no one would want to miss this one.
And yet, when the cameras and reporters arrived, all they found were a few folding chairs in an otherwise empty parking lot, in front of a community health center. Biden walked out to a podium, mumbled a few words about the improvements he wanted to make to Obamacare, and then shuffled off, alone. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping, and absolutely nothing had changed.
Bernie Sanders Changed America

Today, Sanders suspended his second presidential campaign after a primary season that always favored Joe Biden, but saw, for a brief moment, a socialist Jewish candidate as the frontrunner. “Few would deny that over the past five years, our movement has won the ideological struggle,” Sanders said during a farewell address to his supporters, made via a livestream from his home in Burlington, Vermont. He explained that he was dropping out because his campaign didn’t have a clear path to victory.

This Absolute Bullshit Would Not Be Possible Without Propaganda
Joe Biden has been a horrible, evil politician since long before his rape allegations went mainstream and his brain started turning to porridge. If people could gaze with fresh, unmanipulated eyes upon someone who’s dedicated his entire political career to neoliberal exploitation at home and neoconservative mass murder abroad, someone who openly boasts about authoring the foundational documents of the USA PATRIOT Act, someone who promises rich donors that “nothing fundamentally will change” if he’s elected and who they know from experience can be taken at his word, it would never occur to them that this is someone who should be running for any elected office anywhere, let along within spitting distance of the most powerful one in the world.
It is only by the ability of the mass media to manufacture the illusion of normality that this bullshit has been made possible.

What will be remembered is how our progressive leaders did worse than absolutely nothing during the ultimate screwing of America, you voted for it! and still have ZERO ideas for what to do right now. Progressive leadership is co-opted & worthless.

Biden Calls for Democratic Convention to Be Delayed Because of Virus
“I doubt whether the Democratic convention is going to be able to be held in mid-July, early July,” Mr. Biden told Jimmy Fallon on “The Tonight Show.” “I think it’s going to have to move into August.”
Mr. Fallon had not asked Mr. Biden about the convention’s timing. The former vice president was responding to a question about how the virus would affect the election.
Joe Biden Loses Track Of Teleprompter In Coronavirus Speech Slip Up
(23.03.2020)
2020 Democratic presidential candidate and former Vice President Joe Biden seemingly lost track of his teleprompter during a speech on the coronavirus crisis, Monday.
In Joe Biden’s virtual town hall, he gets the time frame between now and November WRONG by well over a year. „I can’t do that for another two year, actually another year between now and November.“

Gabbard drops out of 2020 race
Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) dropped out of the 2020 presidential contest after failing to gain much traction in a race in which she was overshadowed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and former Vice President Joe Biden.
Sanders wins Northern Mariana Islands caucus
The win will allocate four delegates to Sanders, with Biden garnering two delegates from the contest.
The Northern Mariana Islands have been a United States territory since 1975 and in 2016, Hillary Clinton won the group of islands‘ caucus.
In case we didn’t see this look at these numbers. And the time stamp. This is reminiscent of 2016. If they can do this without any sort of accountability, guess what? They’ll keep doing it. It’s long been time to call for recounts and investigations. #ElectionIntegrity
Note also how at the bottom they go from 1,344,469 vote totals to 1,072,844. Which is obviously not possible. @MichiganDems you’ve been exposed.
Dear Bernie: Now’s the time to say FUCK THIS SHIT and run as an independent. NOW. If you had done this in 2016, you’d be running for your second term. The Dems will NEVER let you win, and we can’t wait another 4 years. Sincerely, The „US“ is #NotMeUs

DNC announces that there will be no live audience and also no spin room at the Arizona debate on Sunday
I don’t look at Sanders losing primaries and think “my team is losing.” I look at them and say, win or lose, we have millions of people in this country who understand the realities of our world and the urgency required to fight for healthcare, against war and for justice.
Something for the left to think abt.
The reason everyone obsesses over the wants & needs of moderates is bc they r constantly threatening to vote for the other team/stay home. The party thinks the left will vote for them no matter what so we have 0 power & get treated like crap.
That’s why even though M4A and GND are overwhelmingly popular, voters choose Biden because they believe they must appease those finicky moderates. Progressives and leftists can be endlessly shit on (compared to nazis called toxic etc) bc they assume we will still vote blue anyway

Demokratie-Simulation der U.S.-„Demokraten“: Wann gründet sich endlich eine neue Partei?
Der unserer Einschätzung nach offensichtliche, vor aller Augen durch die „Demokratische Partei“ in ihren Vorwahlen vollzogene Wahlbetrug wird nur deshalb viele überraschen und schockieren, weil sie ihn nicht als solchen erkennen oder erkennen wollen. Dabei verhält sich diese Mutter aller Verräterparteien in der U.S.-Hegemonie genauso, wie wir es bei Radio Utopie erwartet haben und seit Jahren analysieren.
Prognose: Trump wird 2020 wieder U.S.-Präsident
(13. Juni 2018)
In keinem Falle kandidiert Sanders als unabhängiger Kandidat zur Präsidentschaftswahl und / oder gründet eine neue Partei. Und in keinem Falle schafft es die demokratische Linke in den U.S.A. diese vor der Präsidentschaftswahl in 2020 zu gründen. Dies geschieht erst nach der erneuten desaströsen Niederlage der sogenannten „Demokraten“ gegen Donald Trump.

Progressives Sound Alarm to Democrats: Biden Is Not the ‚Safe‘ Candidate Against Trump
„Joe Biden is not safe. Not safe for the planet. Not safe for our health. Not safe to run against Trump.“
We need our own party. Its time to leave the sinking ship Dem party behind. After this election, The Progressive party needs its own leadership.
There are too many of us to keep us tied up trying to still be relevant to these dense, self-serving corporate dems. #BernieSurge
Rule #1 of politics is don’t piss off your base. Republicans never violate it. An entire wing of the democratic party not only violates it, but has made violating it the centerpiece of their ideology. Lecturing voters every debate using GOP talking points. Iceberg dead ahead.
Exit polling in three states from Super Thursday are off by 10% while California still counts ballots and 102 delegates haven’t yet been awarded. And every coin toss, miscount, non-count, bad polling always -always- always goes against #BernieSanders.
Michigan: C-SPAN 2 camera zooms out far enough to show the reality of Joe Biden’s true campaign. Detroit Michigan school gymnasium. The attendance super low, but on top of that; audience talked with each other the whole time that he was giving his speech.

Some Super Tuesday Votes Won’t Count Unless Dallas Judge Fixes Democrat Election Official’s Mistake
Dallas County Elections Administrator Toni Pippins-Poole will be in district court today asking a state judge to allow a partial recount of the March 3 primary, due to “counting errors” found days after the ballot count was complete.
In a petition filed Friday night, the Democrat official said she discovered “discrepancies” between the number of voters who checked in at the polls and the number of electronic ballots counted:
Dear America, Please Stop This Nonsense Immediately. Love, The Rest Of The World
So, I know you don’t like us to bother you during an election year, but all the people in all the other countries in the world have been talking, and there’s just one teensy, weensy issue we wanted to chat with you about, if you don’t mind.
Ummmm… so, like, are you guys really going to do this Joe Biden thing? Like, for real?
Even Trump knows that @TheDemocrats are so corrupt they are planning on losing to him again if they can stop the candidate who represents workers. #ZombieParty
Democrats and Their Media Allies Impugned Biden’s Cognitive Fitness. Now They Feign Outrage.
But, as the Democratic establishment has united with creepy speed and obedience behind Biden in order to stop the Sanders candidacy, those who now raise these concerns instantly come under a withering assault of insults and attacks from Democratic Party operatives along with their crucial media allies: thinly disguised pro-Biden reporters who continue to insist on wearing the unconvincing and fraudulent costume of neutrality. They are invoking the classic Orwellian formulation from the novel 1984: “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
The Grayzone and CODEPINK demand emergency OAS election observers in 2020 Democratic presidential primary
When: 2 pm, Tuesday, March 10, 2020
Where: Outside the Organization of American States, 200 17th St NW, Washington, DC 20006
In light of clear irregularities in voting results in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary and structural barriers to voter participation, The Grayzone and CODEPINK call on the Organization of American States (OAS) to provide emergency international election monitors in the primary contest.
For those on the verge of giving up, take it from someone who DID check out after the 2000 election: DO NOT DO IT. There is little in my life I regret more than not fighting back. Turn your disgust into anger and your anger into action. The time is now and the leaders are us.
Why isn’t every progressive leaning outlet focused on it?
Why isnt voting fraud being raised as a concern to stop @BernieSanders ??? Since it seems irregular in iowa, texas, & Massachusetts etc?
We’re still in line in Ann Arbor. Michiganders, I know the lines are long but please stay in them!!! #MichiganPrimary
FYI there are still 2.9 million unprocessed ballots in California—more than the Democratic turnout of Virginia & North Carolina combined. When the counting’s done, Bernie may extend his CA lead by another 200,000 votes—more than Biden’s winning margin in Texas & Mass. combined.
Still seeing lots of people aghast at the Democratic party because they are “risking losing to a Trump”. For the last time: They don’t care if they “lose” to Trump!!! What they can’t “RISK” is winning with a progressive. Hope that helps.
The democratic primary is corporatism vs social democracy.
The Fed’s $16 Trillion Bailouts Under-Reported
(20.09.2011)
It is the first audit of the Fed in United States history since its beginnings in 1913. The findings verify that over $16 trillion was allocated to corporations and banks internationally, purportedly for “financial assistance” during and after the 2008 fiscal crisis.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) amended the Wall Street Reform law to audit the Fed, pushing the GAO to step in and take a look around.

Folks, real talk: we are now the edge of a global economic crisis. The last time this happened, the Biden wing of the Dem party handed trillions to the banks who created the crisis, did not prosecute, and let workers, students and homeowners pay the price. Do not do it again.

Bernie Sanders, at Fox News Town Hall, hits Clinton for efforts to ‚relive‘ 2016, Biden for backing ‚crooks‘
The Biden campaign has repeatedly refused Fox News Channel’s invitations to participate in a town hall.
Separately, prompted by a recent video clip of Clinton claiming that „nobody likes“ Sanders and that he „didn’t work until he was 41,“ Sanders responded: „Unlike Secretary Clinton, I don’t want to relive 2016. We’re in 2020 now.“
Why can Republicans vote in the Democratic Party primary?
Because you can register as a member of any party you like. Republicans can register as Democrats and then vote in the primary, even though they have no intention of voting Democratic in the election.
Why some conservatives are voting in Michigan’s Democratic primary
Whether conflicted conservatives vote for a Democrat in November may depend on the nominee. Earlier in the primary, NBC News spoke to some moderate Republicans who were excited at the prospect of voting for Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota or former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg.
‘Never Trump’ Republicans Will Support Biden, not Sanders

If Joe Biden Wins The Nomination But Suffers Cognitive Decline, The DNC Could Get Their Coronation Afterall
Consider how the Democrats fill vacancies on their tickets:
“Filling a Vacancy on the National Ticket: In the event of death, resignation or disability of a nominee of the Party for President or Vice President after the adjournment of the National Convention, the National Chairperson of the Democratic National Committee shall confer with the Democratic leadership of the United States Congress and the Democratic Governors Association and shall report to the Democratic National Committee, which is authorized to fill the vacancy or vacancies.”
So, to be clear, the vacancy would be decided by Tom Perez (a 2016 Clinton superdelegate), Steny Hoyer (a 2016 Clinton superdelegate), Jim Clyburn (a 2016 Clinton superdelegate), Chuck Schumer (a 2016 Clinton superdelegate), Dick Durbin (a 2016 Clinton superdelegate), and the DGA will decide on their own who will be our Democratic nominee.
Dallas County asks for Super Tuesday recount after discovering it missed some ballots
The tally of ballots had been compiled from flash drives that were turned in to the county, and the county initially believed it had received all ballots from the 454 vote centers, Pippins-Poole said in an affidavit filed with the court.
„However, it was later determined that there are ballots from 44 of the precinct scanner and tabulator machines that are unaccounted for,“ Pippins-Poole said. She could not immediately be reached for comment on Saturday.
There are a shocking 800,000 ballots that have yet to be unprocessed in LA County Alone from Super Tuesday! #DemocraticPrimary #SuperTuesday
‚We don’t have time to correct every error‘: Iowa Democrats vote 26-14 to certify caucus results
(29.02.2020)
But the certification wasn’t unanimous. Several members of the Iowa Democratic Party’s state central committee, which acts as a governing board, argued that too many questions remain about the accuracy of the results.
The Associated Press has declined to call a winner in the race, citing „remaining concerns about whether the results as reported by the party are fully accurate.“
bernie isn’t really running against joe biden, a candidate who hasnt done a real rally, live fundraiser, interview, town hall, or basically any public event in days. he’s running against a media apparatus that’s given biden close to $100 million in coverage in the last 14 days.
.@JoeBiden @BernieSanders I’m sure you would agree that our Democratic nominee should be a person who will stand up for what is right. So I ask that you have the courage to do that now in the face of the DNC’s effort to keep me from participating in the debates. #LetTulsiDebate
The DNC has changed the format for the next debate, where Joe Biden would have had to stand at a lectern for two hours and answer questions from professional moderators, to one where both men will be seated and answer questions from the audience.
Interesting how the corporate media is trying to deliver the knockout blow to #Bernie. Over the past 48 hours, I’ve seen a half dozen hit pieces on Sanders and puff pieces on #Biden. The system will work hard to preserve itself.
Libya, Syria, Somalia and Yemen: Calculating the Millions-High Death Toll of America’s Post-9/11 Wars
(26.4.2018)
As Barbara Lee presciently warned her colleagues before she cast her lone dissenting vote in 2001, we have “become the evil we deplore.” But these wars have not been accompanied by fearsome military parades (not yet) or speeches about conquering the world. Instead they have been politically justified by “information warfare” to demonize enemies and fabricate crises, and then waged in a “disguised, quiet, media free” way, to hide their cost in human blood from the American public and the world.
After 16 years of war, about 6 million violent deaths, 6 countries utterly destroyed and many more destabilized, it is urgent that the American public come to terms with the true human cost of our country’s wars and how we have been manipulated and misled into turning a blind eye to them – before they go on even longer, destroy more countries, further undermine the rule of international law and kill millions more of our fellow human beings.
The entire 2020 primary is about whether Democrats can come to grips with what a shitty President Obama was. The answer appears to be no they cannot.
In 1968, Democrats rejected the popular peace-and-justice movement campaign of Eugene McCarthy for the safer and more predictable establishment-friendly candidacy of Hubert Humphrey. Then they lost to Richard Nixon.
New standards eliminate Tulsi Gabbard from next Democratic debate

Bernie Sanders tries to turn the Biden tide at electric Detroit rally
About 6,000 came out to Sen. Bernie Sanders‘ rally at TCF Center downtown Friday night.
The enthusiasm was electric and Sanders touched on the topics he always does – healthcare, gun laws and choice.
The American people are sick and tired of endless wars in the Middle East which have cost hundreds of thousands of lives and trillions of dollars. We will not defeat Trump with a candidate like Joe Biden who supported and voted for the Iraq War alongside Republicans.

#DNCisCorrupt
Pay attention to the narrative they’re building. The Bernie delegates will not be awarded until they’ve stolen Michigan for Biden.
Then the only thing you’ll hear is calls for Bernie to drop out.
This has been the plan from the beginning. #RiggedPrimary
So Biden is up 76 delegates (627-551) right now but for some reason there are 162 outstanding delegates not allocated yet and 153 of those are in Colorado, Utah, and California three states Bernie won. When are they going to update the delegates? It has been 3 full days now.

Bloomberg: 10
Warren: 5
So, #Bernie lost in Texas by a lot right? Or did he? ? Final Count of Texas Delegates: ? Biden 111 ? Bernie 102 ? Bloomberg 10 ? Warren 5 ✅ A 9 delegate difference is not significant. But the huge number of delegates #Bernie2020 gained in California was astounding.
Democrats should be really, really afraid of a contested nominating convention
Contested Democratic conventions in the past led to catastrophe. In 1860, the Democratic convention broke up over the issue of slavery and in the end two Democratic candidates, one from the south, the other from the north, ran for president.
US-Vorwahlen: „In Deutschland würden auch CDU-Wähler Sanders unterstützen“
„Mein Leben als Lehrer war in den USA nicht tragbar. Ich musste noch rund 18.000 Euro meines Studienkredits zurückzahlen, mir blieb genug zum Essen, aber Freizeitaktivitäten konnte ich mir nur bedingt leisten. Nach dreieinhalb Jahren an einer Highschool in der Innenstadt von Detroit habe ich mich entschieden, meine Familie und meine Schüler zu verlassen. In den USA hätte ich nicht weiterarbeiten können.“
Here’s Biden again – where a bust of the monstrous war criminal Dick Cheney was unveiled at the Capitol – where Biden stood by George W. Bush heaping more praise on Cheney: „I actually like Dick Cheney,“ Biden said, adding: (Biden was the critical Senate Dem for the Iraq War):
In interview with @Maddow , @ewarren was notably restrained in noting her policy differences with @JoeBiden , and called him a “decent” man in the best way. She’s spoke much more at length about the online vitriol from @BernieSanders supporters.

Biden’s Rise Gives the Establishment One Last Chance
I don’t know about you, but the election results this week filled me with more hope than I’ve felt in years. It felt like somebody turning down the volume.

‚Give Us an Hour on MSNBC‘: Sanders Says He Would Love to Debate Medicare for All vs. For-Profit System With Joe Biden
Sen. Bernie Sanders on Wednesday night said he would „love to debate Joe Biden on this issue“—the difference between a Medicare for All plan that dozens of studies show would cover all people for less overall cost and the for-profit status quo that leaves an estimated 28 million Americans uninsured and tens of millions more underinsured, vulnerable to bankruptcies, or lacking care due to financial reasons.
Not sure if I mentioned this recently — I think I did, but just in case: the Democratic establishment is shit, and the only way meaningful progress is possible in the US is if it’s uprooted and destroyed:
If the Democratic Party bosses, major Wall Street firms, credit card companies, weapons manufacturers, health care lobbyists wanted to implement a plan to keep Donald Trump in the White House, I cannot imagine a better move than making Joe Biden the nominee.
They are rigging it before your eyes. Again. Ya’ll got your heads in the sand. Start fighting that now, or you are going to lose. Canvassing doesn’t fix that. Clearly. I’m in CA, and I couldn’t even vote cause the fuckery. Follow @jvgraz , he’s 100% right on this. FIGHT IT NOW.
