  1. Micro-expressions do not lie. All of the cable news reporters, that is ALL of them, looked like they had just lost their favorite sex toy, or someone had told them that Santa Clause doesn't exist when it became apparent that Bernie was going to win in Iowa. Then they proceeded to demonstrate their singular super power in which they actually lie faster than they talk. Some kind of lyin dog-faced pony-soldier swarm -- FUken Aaaamazzen.

  2. CNN and MSNBC report: In the race between Bernie and Buttegieg: Pete came in second over-all but Bernie only managed to place next to last.

  3. Bernie $ VS Bloomburg $ Apologies to those who took arithmetic in elementary school. I know you already know this -- even so you may not be able to envision the difference in these fortunes and this explanation may help. Bernie has a stack of two million one dollar bills that he wants to give to Judy. Bernie is old and can only give her one dollar each second. If Bernie is wearing a catheter and doesn't need to go to the bathroom and can hand Judy dollar bills 24 hours a day, 7 days a week: how long will it take Bernie to give Judy his two million dollars? answer: There are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hours and 24 hours in a day: Therefore Bernie can hand Judy 86,400 dollar bills every day. So he can give her $86,000 per day. So it would take Bernie just about 23 days and three and a half hours to give Judy two million dollars. (since $86,400 goes into $2,000,000 a little over 23.15 times) In twenty three days Bernie could hand Judy his two million dollars, one dollar at a time, if he can stay awake, and he can, cause he is a vastly woke dude. How long would it take little Mike to hand Judy his 60,2 billion dollars one dollar at a time? Mike is also old and wearing a catheter, is being fed intravenously and attended by his personal medical staff. Through the wonders of modern pharmacology and a neural implant he purchased, Mike can also stay awake. But due to age Mike can also only hand Judy one dollar bill per second. So Mike, like Bernie can give Judy $86,400 per day. There are 6,759.26 ($86,400) in 60.2 billion dollars so it would take Mike six hundred and ninety six thousand seven hundred and fifty nine days to hand Judy his 60.2 billion dollars. That's 696,759.26 days. That many days equals one thousand nine hundred and eight years and a few days short of eight months. So it would take Mike 1908.93 years to hand Judy all his money (that we know of). Bernie would be broke in 23 days. Mike would be broke in 1,909 years. Who is the oligarch? Addendum: Please note that since Mike is a capitalist who profits, not from his labor or producing goods but by investment, his wealth will actually be increasing by more than $86,400 per day because of profits on his fortune. So in reality, no matter how many thousands of years he spends handing Judy his money, he would never be able to do it and would always have more to hand her each day than he did the day before. Addendum PS: Old Jewish wisdom: "Every time somebody makes something for nothing, somebody else makes nothing for something." In Bloomburg's and the other billionares cases this "somebody else" is you and everyone else. If you don't understand this you are truly blind and will never understand why wealth is concentrating in fewer and fewer hands and you are being robbed in ways you neither understand nor can do anything about without a fundamental paradigm shift in our laws, government, and cultural world-view.

  4. I would say they are equal. Equally deceived and equally duped once again by Goldman Sachs, Koch Industries, and Robert Mercer.

  5. That was indeed excellent work. Glad you picked up on it.

  6. Sadly the power-elite scumbags have now created a legislative environment wherein what was formerly criminal acts is now business as usual.

  7. The Stanford Prisoner Experiment should tell us everything we need to know about giving people authority and uniforms and weapons and telling them to enforce order. Even when they know it's an act they become extremely abusive.

  8.  TequilaOrWhiskey  Yep, if they were smart like the banksters that have you so brainwashed that you vote against your own best interest, they would just print their own money like the geniuses at the Federal Reserve. Dumb shit.

  9. Yeah you realize both the parties are corrupt but you are focusing on the wrong aspect of the problem. You can't destroy this hydra of corruption by attacking one of the heads, you have to destroy the root of the corruption. Figure out how to make Campaign Finance Reform sexy, and save the nation from the criminal scumbags that are now stealing our nation. If you have two brain cells to rub together you can figure out that the funding of politics is nothing but a system of corruption that was put in place to steal as much as possible for as long as possible. A populist movement cannot win as long as the worst among us: the Mercers, Kochs, and Goldman Sachs minions, control everything through a system of corruption that they themselves have devised. Sure it seems like there are a thousand issues: Trump giving away national assets like Putin did to a bunch of rich unevolved assholes who are proud of their predation upon the populace, and their endless red herrings that get all the single issue voters at one anothers' throats: climate change, fundamentalist morons who think that the world is six thousand years old and will end tomorrow, wars in support of private business interests, wholesale surveillance of the citizens, a ridiculous number of psychopaths with badges who believe they are licensed to kill, etc. etc. etc. But I am telling you that Robert Mercer understands that the lynch pin of control is campaign finance, that’s why he funds Citizens United, and Britbart, and put Trump in office by giving him key words found by Cambridge Anaylitica to repeat over and over, in near meaningless lies, that the mindless fools that watch and believe Fox News and similar founts of lies were responding to on a limbic level. He knows that campaign finance is the key to power – do you? Until this is done, the present plutocratic kleptocracy will swiftly recover from any temporary setbacks, including bids by third parties which they will absorb. Sorry if it boars you. It’s not up to your opinion, this is the game theory, this is the facts. Robert Mercer is using the power of Artificial Intelligence against the population and government of the USA to make your voice and vote more meaningless than it already is. Campaign finance reform must be done, not because it is somebodies interest or pet interest, but because it is the only thing that CAN be done to stop this avalanche of shit the one percent is burying us under. Goldman Sachs gave the American public a choice in the last election and that choice was, “Would you rather live in shit or piss.” And thanks to 80,000 rust belt fools who were conned by a New York City conman, America chose shit. And until campaign finance is addressed and totally deprivatized you will only have a choice between shit and piss in all the coming elections. Unless a real populist like Bernie is nominated (don’t hold your breath) as he should have been, and reforms this madness. The shit we are in now is because of the neoliberal idiots who supported and cheated for Hillary and voted for her in the primary even though all the polls showed Bernie as way more likely to beat Trump than her. Trump knew it, he even said it, Cambridge Anaylitica probably told him, and still the Hillary supporters deny it. As Gurdjieff wrote, “Even God has no defense against stupidity.” Blessings to those of evolving conscience.

  10. I did vote Green, in fact I have voted third party for at least thirty years. It would be much much better if Bernie ran either as a democrat or even a republican. The result of a really popular third party for progressives would play into the hands of a Trump second term. Booting the bastards out of the democratic party is a much much better path.

  11. You are presenting a distorted narrative. I know people who work in the ICU of a major medical center. I asked all of them if they are seeing fully vaccinated people presenting with Covid. They said yes. I then asked them how many of these vaccinated persons were admitted to the ICU. "None". Do you get that Jimmy? No vaccinated people were admitted to the ICU let alone died from the virus. So the long and short of it is that you are a click baiting a$$hole.

  12. Bernie will crush Trump in the general election! As to whether or not he will win the presidency is another matter. My recently deceased PA coal region father voted for Trump, but would have voted for Bernie if he had not been cheated out of the nomination. In either case it is curious that we ended up with two of the most despised creatures in America as our main choices. Bernie was cheated by a DNC that has no legal obligation to be fair or honest, and who take full advantage of every backroom deceit that they can come up with. Biden is for voters who would rather see another four years of Trump than have Bernie as president. Bernie will speak for all but the power-elite and the unending supply of co-opted sycophantic slugg-heads that surround them and do things like manage the various corporate news venues.

  13. Concerning Iowa: We will figure out exactly how they cheated, then we will figure out the next way that they cheated, and the one after that, and so on: with a factual and rational narrative about the qualities of people who would do such things. We will even say, "They said it couldn't happen here.": out of ironic gallows humor. Maybe at times their cheating will be so outrageous that hundreds of thousand of people will march or occupy something, but amazingly, almost miraculously Mitch and Lindsey, and the rest of Caligula JR's little unholy Greek chorus will retain their offices, and they will go on cheating and bullying and claiming that the law is what ever they think it is at the moment. And we will figure it all out. And you will make it funny and entertaining. But now we have reached a point in politics where: as in the attempt to transcend one's own habitual mode of mental functioning: knowing doesn't matter. You may know that the associative functioning of the thought-centric mind is mechanical, but that doesn't transcend or transform anything. So it is with our political system. We have known forever that it would be best to get all money out of politics if the most ethical and fair government is what you want. We have known forever that proportional representation is superior to winner-takes-all seesaws. We have known that the banks are incapable of regulating themselves and that the wealth of the nation is being sucked up by the military industrial professional political worker complex, that the drug war is a farce that has created the first billionaire criminal organizations. In our hollowed out lives, news has become entertainment. And the fantasyland they present to the public is a poor substitute for what should have been the golden destiny of mankind on earth and in regions beyond.

  14.  @mattb6646  I understand why you think that. But you cannot go by Trump or any politicians words. You have to go by deeds. And believe me, for every act you can come up with that Trump took in the interest of America, I can come up with one or even two that he did that where totally part of a corrupt swamp. He told how the bankers at Goldman Sachs really ran the dems, then he appointed more Goldman Sachs execs to his cabinet then any other pres ever did. This is just an example of how his actions were the opposite of his words. He deepened the swamp with those actions. You have to find out how to discriminate between propaganda and verifiable facts if you have any interest in holding opinions that reflect reality and are not just rationalizations for hormonal reactions.

  15. Jimmy criticizes the DNC by saying that they never act, they are always reactionary. Well, Jimmy, you tell me one act that you or anyone else has ever done that was not reactionary? Even every one of your thoughts and feelings is entirely reactionary and to not know this speaks ill of you level of self-awareness. You must actually think that you have free-will and a little executive function in your "mind" actually acts, as opposed to reacting to stimulus both physical and mental. If you don't know that this is a delusion, you don't really know anything at all.

  16. In the sixties we had a saying, "There's never a problem until there is trouble." How about the American Revolution that came about largely because of an intolerant response to a riot. There are literally thousands of instances where nothing was done about some problem until someone or some group caused trouble. However it is probably more fun to be a right wing idiot protestor. The police don't fuck with you and you get to bring your assault rifle to the protest. Why do you think that is Einstein?

  19.  @heyzues8363  You do realize that Trump is not tan, he is fish belly white with grey and blue overtones. He is bald, he is fat, he had plastic surgery, and does everything possible to cover up his hidieous obease appearance. Including tens of thousands of dollars spend on his stupid hair piece that is woven into his remaining hair. If you saw him without his make-up and fake hair you would not recognize him.

  20.  @Hoolygan4ever  When you say "you" are you referring to the banksters and billionaires that control who gets nominated on both sides, or the populace who are always given the choice of who they hate less by the few families who own everything in the system, through legalized corruption of campaign fnance? Are you so naive that you believe in the illusion of choice?

  21. First it was fictional blue hairs from no-town USA that was the manufactured consensus we all had to suffer for decades. Now it is fictional frustrated coddled purple haired numb skulls desperately in need of a safe-space that haunt the fictional halls of the fantasyland the corporate media presents to us.

  22. Your comments section has been infested with idiots today. It's all the same story with these asshats until the boot comes down on their neck then they pause to reconsider their extreme stupidity, if they are alive. If dead the only ones who will do something about it are the people in the streets.

  23. Really, Trump seems to be in charge enough to fuck up one thing after another with incredible speed. He is handing over national assets to oligarchs like he was Putin.

  24. One did get the feeling of a "bait and switch", I think he would have acted differently if he had known they had colluded against him at the time. On the other hand corporate media gave him prejudicially low coverage.

  28. Michael Moore's movie was just a theory anyhow. I don't see the big deal. However if Chris Hedges or Jimmy is muted I take personal offense, but I just don't see it on my end. I am aware of anything you put on YouTube right away. I don't do Twitter because it is for twits with little sound-byte thoughts, and I don't do Facebook because is it is like undermining yourself.

  31. You would think that the families of those vets that lost their lives and those that became maimed would be at the government's gates with pitchforks, but instead they will attack you if you even question the reason they were used and abused by these out of touch rich power elite bastards who don't give a fuck about them. They do not give a fuck about you and your loss or the fact that your loss is due to their lies and it has nothing to do with patriotism. If they were real patriots they would be fighting to get the scum out of Congress, but they vote the same bastards in over and over. There is no hope because there is no way to deal with the general stupidity inculcated into the populace by the corporate news media.

  32. Comment part 1 Sheltered as I am, and as much a fool as I allow myself to be on a daily basis: I will now proceed my pouring from the empty into the void by giving a brief outline of how an optimal human government should be arranged. In fact, one objective look at the so-called political systems, and their underpinning, that populate our planet should inform the observer that what is happening is just window dressing on barbarism, it's just a theater of the mind, a velvet glove on an iron fist. I don't know of any system of government or rule that rises above the idiotic, or so it would seem, if the object of the system is to optimize, as much as is possible, all honorable aspects of human existence, and to curtail those commonly deemed as undesirable, the present systems of governance found on earth are archaic trash: just an excuse for the same old kleptocratic autocompulsive psychopaths, to further inflate their already vein-glorious mini-minds in the vacuous reflections of the sycophants that surround and enable their insanity because of their own highly deviated and corrupted survival impulse. They wish they were a real boy, but despite the world of suffering they create by trying to fill their truly vacuous lives with babbles of all types, real life eludes them, and always will. Even ole' Socrates knew that a person that seeks power should never be trusted with it. Human political culture is a joke. An eighth grade class could come up with a better system than the battered whore the banksters and one percent -- have afforded the world. It's a joke, a sin, and a wasted opportunity to evolve our culture into one that would nurture the greatness that humanity could be. But we ain't great, and we never have been, though for sure, an individual here and there, now and then has been -- great that is. Though to tell you the truth Alexander wasn't, and neither was his teacher Aristotle. Two utter failures that the world has adored for over two millennia. So wad ya gonna due -- aye? Real democracy is something usually only found in a direct democracy. Representational Democracy, Republics, Constitutional Republic, etc, are a device used to lead the capite censi to believe that they live in a participatory democracy while allowing the plutocrats to stay in control of the things that matter to them. A few prefectures in Switzerland have a direct democracy, or if you allow, a REAL democracy, but as far as I am aware, they are the only such democracy in the world today and in all of history. Personally I would prefer a sort of democratic neoconfusian techno-meritocracy, wherein people would not vote for candidates, but for the tests and various VR simulated scenarios submitted for consideration by experts in testing of psychological fitness and problem solving abilities that would be appropriate for the office being sought. Tests that would be open to all citizens at all times in order to challenge those who held various government offices, and replace them if they scored higher than the current occupant.

  33. The Stanford Prisoner Experiment should tell us everything we need to know about giving people authority and uniforms and weapons and telling them to enforce order. Even when they know it's an act they become extremely abusive. And in case you didn't know it. . . it's all an act. (I guess I better add: it's all an act in a cosmic sense because these brutes have forgotten who they really are, and there will be much weeping if they ever remember. Tears of sadness over what they have done in their dark ignorance and tears of joy over remembering that that is not who they are.)

If you haven't figured out that using Facebook is like smashing your head against a wall in all this time, if you haven't noticed the incredibly invasive inference engines they use, if you don't realize that their logarithms can tell what you will probably do and think and respond to, in all these years you haven't figured out that using facebook is contributing to your own demise by providing them the free content that they use to sell their ads and fuck you over, when are you gonna wake the fuck up and stop using face book. Just erase it. You will fell better in a few days. Facebook is for assholes -- no exceptions. You use it: you are an asshole.

USA has become ruled by thieves because the masses have become a bunch of facebook twitter pussies.

When I saw the incredible intrusiveness of their inference engines I stopped cold and advised all my real friends to do the same. That was many years ago. If you are on Facebook it is because you don't understand what's going on.

He has given assholes of divers opinions a platform. And some of the best damn guests to be found anywhere -- especially scientists and such.

  49. Love Tulsi. If I were on an island and got a fifteen minute warning I would take a boat and run like hell in any direction away from the island. Or a plane. A plane would be better unless there is an electro magnetic pulse that knocks out the electronics. A boat could get maybe five to ten mile away in that time. That would probably be enough.
    1
  50. The corporate news is still trying to black-out Bernie. Bernie, and Tulsi are the only candidates with any integrity, something the networks and cable news despises. Bernie understands that the lynch-pin of all the legalized corruption in our constitutional republic is campaign finance. What now passes for "business as usual" was not long ago a criminal act. But many progressives do not understand this. They are bored by the subject but excited by all kinds of meaningless PC rhetoric. While I was at a Nader rally in Santa Cruz back during his 2000 run, he said he had time for one more question. I yelled out "Campaign finance!" When he indicated that this was the subject he would address there was an audible groan from this most progressive crowd in America's most leftest town, . I guess most people never consider the fact that if Nader had won, we would have never attacked Iraq and the 2008 great recession (where-in the same people who caused it were put in charge of fixing it and managed to steal trillions in public funds for themselves and the institutions they hid their criminal activities behind) would never have occurred. And I would like to remind everyone that the criminals behind this, who had bribed the legislative branch with campaign contributions, were also the people who changed the laws to allow this disastrous turn of our republic. Which was unequaled until the retrograde idiot section of the supreme court passed Citizens United and other decisions of a antiAmerican nature that benefited the one-percent and their brain-washed right-wing idiot minions. Sorry if this comment went on for longer than a Twitter-brain can attend to. But if you notice, the comments that always get the most likes are always the most obvious and usually the most knee-jerk in nature. Never believe the "first-story": whether given by the government, the corporate news, the republocrats, or your own reactionary quite mechanical mind
