Comments by "Tony Wilson" (@tonywilson4713) on "Mehdi Hasan Tells Marianne She's An Unserious "Spoiler" Candidate | The Kyle Kulinski Show" video.
I checked the actual MSNBC vid for the interview that's here on YouTube and at 6:35 they mute her. It has to be some of the crappiest journalism in the history of journalism. Do you think MSNBC would do that to Hilary Clinton????

@jl8942 I've seen Mehdi Hassan many times, but I am not a regular viewer and I have NEVER seen him do this before. And she wasn't ranting she was stating a list of facts. Also I am NOT a Marianne Williamson supporter. I'm not even American, I'm Australian but went to college in America. Irrespective of where I am from the most basic fact is that the world cannot afford to have America malfunction. America is 1/4 of the worlds economy and the US Dollar is the worlds reserve currency. Even a partial collapse would be a disaster for the world. Even the Russians can't afford to have America malfunction because a lot of their Oligarchs have their money hidden in Idaho, Texas and Delaware - 3 of the worlds premier places to hide money. I hate to throw it back at ya but America wanted to be the worlds superpower and with that comes RESPONSIBILITY. Right now America has 2 political parties with billionaire backers who are completely out of control. It cant end well for America and by extension that means the rest of the world too. Sorry for the rant.

@jl8942 DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA AT ALL about where America sits economically in the world? If America has another event like it did in 2008, DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT THE RAMIFICATIONS ARE? Have you ever heard of the Bank of International Settlements? BIS for short. Its where central banks like the Fed and the European Central Bank and the Bank of England go to settle things like all the foreign exchange that goes on from trade and tourism and people moving money about. Their December 2022 quarterly report had a shock in it. If you look it up it starts on page 68. In a nutshell they have reported there is now $100 Trillion in off book FX Swaps (Foreign Exchange) which are a form of derivative trades. Its basically gambling on exchange rates. Most of these swaps are NOT held by banks but other businesses AND NONE of it is recorded on any balance sheet anywhere because of how accountants record these sorts of "financial tools." Below is the opening summary of that report. And note that 25 + 35 = 60 and that's just the short term. In total (short + long term) its around $100 Trillion and most of it is in US Dollars. TAKE note of the last 2 words - that's a reference to all this stuff being OFF BOOK. If America sneezes and the US Dollar suddenly jumps then it will be bit more serious than 2008. This is the opening summary from that report. _"FX swaps, forwards and currency swaps create forward dollar payment obligations that do not appear on balance sheets and are missing in standard debt statistics. Non-banks outside the United States owe as much as $25 trillion in such missing debt, up from $17 trillion in 2016. Non US banks owe upwards of $35 trillion. Much of this debt is very short-term and the resulting rollover needs make for dollar funding squeezes. Policy responses to such squeezes include central bank swap lines that are set in a fog, with little information about the geographic distribution of the missing debt"_

@ShellsGhost1 I get your point BUT THE FACT IS THEY DO NOT APPLY THIS FAIRLY

That is actually a fair claim and it should not be forgotten that she performed their wedding ceremony.

@geekglasses4876 Sadly I agree and think you've summed it up quite well. Good intentions and politics don't go together as easily as leftists think. There's that great slap back by Jeff Daniels character Will McAvoy from the Newsroom about "America is not the greatest country in the world anymore." In the middle he says "You know why people don't like Liberals? Because they lose. If Liberals are so f*cking smart, how come they lose so god damn always?" Its brutal and blunt and so very very true.

@jl8942 And if you want an example of America malfunctioning Kyle Kulinski just posed a vid titled "GOP Politician Goes ALL IN On Flat Earth" He's not the first to report on it but if any American thinks this is what makes a country function properly needs a shot of wake TF up juice directly injected into their brain. And to be honest we have these sorts in Australia too. But so far we haven't let them gain political power.

@jocksharerock7318 Editing??? It doesn't look like editing it looks like it was done in real time.
