@donHooligan I hear you. I actually think Nick I don't remember his last name who was involved with the Bernie Sanders campaign has the best hope of a 3rd party in the people's party but they are not ready to put a candidate on the ballot in November. Unfortunately this election is lost for progressives. The best we can do is keep up the fight. Support the protesters and support the movement for rank choice voting. I think it is the only way we will actually get control back of our government from the wealthy. I actually think rank choice voting is easier to get then money out of politics too. It is why I am waiting to see who wins the Senate seat in Maine. I honestly think the progressive independents have a good chance of winning because you can vote your values and still vote for the lesser of 2 evils. I think this will prove more powerful then Wolf-pac.com fighting to get money out of politics.

Biden said when he was a senator that if there wasn't an Israel we would have to make one. He is a Zionist to the core.

Disrespect is what Nancy Pelosi showed to the sunrise movement not Bernie fighting for Medicare for All.

@rogerleonard5351 you mean the postal service which delivers mail to the entire country every single day? You might want to pick a different example. Or the government roads we all drive on or the government police forces and fire departments we all depend on. There are plenty of examples of things you use every single day that the government provides for you. Just because the GOP works for the wealthy and hates the working class getting these benefits doesn't mean the government never did anything good. Reagon was wrong

@sunnyskye213 lol so who makes the road we drive on then? Not the capitalist

@jumpinjohnnyruss someone didn't learn from 1992

Jordan thanks for breaking down the metrics I was guessing that CNN had rigged that but I didn't check how.

@060363 I prefer presidents who are not awaiting criminal trials

Expecally after lifting the ban on exporting ff. There is no national security involved with exporting oil for corpate profits.

Well they have to replace the billions of dollars worth of hardware they left behind...

@Tijggie82 she has what 1 million twitter followers? Bernie Sanders said we will get Medicare for All when 1 million Americans march for it. So AOC has the followers all she had to do was tweet in support of them and she could have pushed this March for Medicare for All to the point where Bernie Sanders said we need it to get Medicare for All. But if you don't believe her following and her ability to vote with the other "progressives" in the house to block any legislation is power you don't understand what political power is. Which is why people like you fold to Joe Manchin and Mitch McConnell
2
@Tijggie82 because she is the one who made her reputation on wanting us to bring the ruckus. The goal was to get canadate AOC who worked with activites back. The one who realized like Bernie Sanders that you need outside pressure from the working class protestors to pressure politicans not inside games with the last generation to give up the same fight once they became leadership. You can literally watch the video of Mamma Bear asking the then leadership to vote for Medicare for All in the 90s. We kmow from decades of experience that not pressuring lawmakers once they get to Washington and letting them play the inside game makes them into Nancy Pelosi. So you want us to sit back and watch AOC become her role model and lose the next 30 years. I say no we need to keep pushing because we know where the other road leads you just need to look at the current speaker of the house to know why AOC needs to be reminded what got here there and why she shouldn't lock the door on activists.
2
You won't win over people by telling them they are voting for someone worse by voting a certain way. Watch the video again and see how you move people to see the best candidate. Voter shaming is a tool the corporatist Democrats use when they can't win on issues. Progressives have to be better than this.
2
The electoral collage isn't the problem it is first past the post voting. If more states has ranked choice voting like Maine and Alaska there would be no spoiler effort. She is distracting you from the solution
2
@presence5426 you are only half right the problem has been addressed in Maine and Alaska there is no spoiler effect of 3rd parties there
2
So now you don't believe our President should declare emergencies based on the environmental situation? We do it every time there is a hurricane or flooding. This is no different to anyone who understands the world we live in today.
2
@stevenruiz6507 funny because Bernie Sanders said we need 1 million people marching in the streets to get Medicare for All when he was running for president. AOC doing all she could apparently doesn't include helping the March for Medicare for All reach the numbers Bernie Sanders said we need. I mean all she had to do was tweet her support for the march to her millions of followers and the march would have grown to the size Bernie Sanders set as the target. Instead she looked the door to keep the movement for Medicare for All out of her office. It was only the platform issue that got her elected but I guess she was too busy to tweet support for it today.

Great interview Jordan. The one thing I wish Tulsi would talk more about is the off focial fuel act she introduced in 2017. It has great targets for switching to renewable energy. When she is asked about the green new deal I wish she would bring up the actual details and dates in this act and reintroduce it calling on the supporters of the green new deal to co sponsor it. If you watch her answer questions on monetary policy and the green new deal it becomes clear that her issues revolve around MMT not the environmental aspects of the green new deal. There was a question from someone at her Concord NH campaign stop about the GND and one in the North Hampton meeting about the money where the guy gives a long speach. Those two answers will give you a lot of insight into her concerns. Which I think is an important distinction. https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/3671

Just think if our government treated businesses doing this to our citizens as seriously as they treated 911
2
I am willing to bet they didn't follow through with Trumps promise to close the hedge fund loophole in this round of tax cuts either.
2
@Roguesta54 it is in Maine and Alaska.
2
@LosFace24 he is now. https://youtu.be/txPOUQbsdhs

So Bernie Sanders get more people to donate as his avg donation is lower. But Warren has the momentum? I am confused isn't winning elections about getting more people to vote for you? I mean the pludocrats who have more money still only get one vote right?
2
@brucejackson3844 look up the videos on Juice Media about their last election cycle both how to vote before it and the results after it. The issue in the USA is that we have not put in the effort they put in to teach people how the system works.
2
Trump must have come up with the name of USMCA so he could tell his base see I put America first it is right there in the name. Trumps new slogan should be America First in Name Only.
2
Maybe the people's party can field a candidate on her district.
2
@truthseeker1959 he is a right wing policy person definitely not worthy of his family history. He is no JFK.
2
@nolidee4917 join the people's party in the bylaws of the party is the fact that they don't accept corporate bribes
2
Unfortunately we have half a century of evidence as to what ping pong between the two parties of the wealthy will do. The system is broken and need to be changed. Rank choice voting is the solution.
1
Policies that help the working class will save them see FDR he was elected president so many times the wealthy put in term limits to be sure no other president repeated his success by helping the working class.
1
Trump is the only president in history to make a billion dollars a month off the office of the president.
1
Trumps personal wealth has increased 1 billion dollars a month the last 3 months.
1
During the primary corporate media called that electability.
1
@Alltime2050 lol we have 2 right wing parties in a two party system and you blame the left. That is priceless
1
@Alltime2050 Obama said he was an 80s Republican policy wise. That is all you need to know about where both political parties are in the USA
1
@Alltime2050 ”The truth of the matter is that my policies are so mainstream that if I had set the same policies that I had back in the 1980s, I would be considered a moderate Republican,” he told Noticias Univision 23 in a White House interview Pretty hard to take that out of context. By the way I am not a conservative which makes it funny that you think I want to stop people from voting. I am outspoken that we need ranked choice voting with more parties to give more people a candidate who represents their views to vote for.
1
The great thing about a democracy is you don't have to. I feel the same way about Trump but don't see the need to yell it to the world.
1
Is it too soon to ask Nina Turner to join the people's party? Paula Jean and Nina Turner would both make great candidates for them.
1
@StatusCoup thanks I didn't mean it like she did something wrong running where she did. Just that we need rank choice voting and more parties
1
@theodorethompson9032 burning it has fucked up probably a 50 mile radius. Sounds like they should have planed better safety instead of 10 billion in stock buybacks.
1
So corpate media claims that the Warren crowd was ex Bernie Sanders supporters. But Emma Vigland interviewed them at a Warren event and they told her their second choice was Harris. I wonder why the corporate media didn't mention that Warren pulls female voters from Harris.
1
You would think by now the media would push ranked choice voting to end the flaw in first past the post. Oh the duopoly doesn't actually want to fix it or they would have in the last 200 years they have voter shamed 3rd parties
1
More Americans are registered independent than either of the other two parties. So apparently the establishment parties are the spoilers.
1
In this case you put pressure on Susan Collins who was so scared of sidewalk chalk used for free speech that the called the police and had the public works crew wash away her voters free speech asking her to please vote for this bill. So blast her on all the Maine media as too currupt and too much of a right wing extremists to break with the party and once again failing women in Maine.
1
First all the republican candidates have to loose to Trump so no Republicans also have proven they can loose to Trump
1
@presence5426 which is why the first step is following Maine and Alaska with Rank choice voting that we can pass today. Focus on the change that is proven possible in the current system
1
Can someone call the police on DWS she should be in prison for election fraud.
1
The reality is the donor class would rather lose to trump than win with Bernie. Harris did exactly what the democratic party is designed to do. The limit the political spectrum to the gap between Trump and Dick Cheney.
1
@shaftomite007 if you don't like first past the post fight for ranked choice voting.
1
Lol so did Trump and his family...
