Yes, Warren appears to be the real deal and she is hitting all the right notes; Wall Street corruption and greed; the oligarchs' assault on unions and the labor market, but I'm still unsure where she stands on military spending, foreign policy, and Globalism.
So I would like to hear what Perez has to say about Warren. Hartmann, you must remember Perez; he was on your show recently and you were promoting his efforts. I assume you know Perez is Chair of the DNC. I assume you know the DNC just passed the following rule with respect to candidates seeking the Democratic Party’s nomination in the 2020 presidential election:
At the time the candidate announces their candidacy publicly, they must publicly affirm they are a Democrat. Each candidate perusing the Democratic nomination shall affirm, in writing, to the National Chairperson of the Democratic Committee (Perez), that they:
• Are members of the Democratic Party.
• Will accept the Democratic nomination.
• Will run to serve as a member of the Democratic Party.
I do have some questions about Warren’s intent, but they may just be due to her reactions to the ducking and swerving so many candidates have to do to keep out of the crosshairs of the oligarchs mainstream media. In general, Warren appears to be the real deal. On the govtrack website, Warren’s score from the Human Rights Campaign is 100%; her score from American Civil Liberties Union is 94%; excellent. And now the more important and telling scorecard; Warren’s score from Americans for Prosperity is 5% and especially her score from FreedomWorks is 0%. So yes, Warren appears to the genuine article; the original funders of the Clinton-Gore “Third Way” New Democrats that Hartmann so admires, and brought you Wall Street Deregulation, NAFTA, and the destruction of the Union Movement, Charles and David Koch, have given Warren a score of “0”. You can’t get a better recommendation than that!
So the introduction of this DNC neutering rule after Sanders debacle invokes many questions. Why introduce this rule as it clearly infers voters are now voting for the policies of the Democratic Party and not those of the candidate? And what does it mean to “serve as a member of the Democratic Party”.
So Hartmann, you had the opportunity to ask Perez these questions many times after this rule came into existence in June, why didn’t you? Since then Perez has been on your show five times. These are the questions that jump out at you begging to be asked, but you appeared to ignore the relevant and run with your usual rants to either induce fear or to chastise the puppet Trump. Yes, the last time Perez was on your show in late November, you spent all the time berating Trump; your usual strategy of distraction. And in this tirade you conflated Anthropogenic Climate Change, the loss of jobs and many other symptoms, but never questioned the cause – Oligarchy and the loss of democracy. Don’t you think questioning the Chair of the DNC that implemented this rule is relevant? Instead of that all I ever hear is a non-confrontational discussion on issues of effect; the cause of these issues is never seriously debated.
I see Hartmann as the Ron Paul of the Corporate Democrats. Hartmann is a Corporate Democrat working for the oligarchs; he will never bring truth to power just as Paul will never criticize his Koch masters or the John Birch Society. They construct an environment of mutual admiration and only produce puff pieces, sickening mutual admiration and any criticism of the causes or the treacherous Perez is off the table. These deceivers are there as controlled opposition; they pretend to criticize the system and in doing so, produce propaganda to perpetuate the system. It can be a lucrative scam if you have enough rubes watch and believe it. Just ask Alex Jones!
