WHY ARE DEMS ASKING WHO CAN STOP SANDERS?  BERNIE BEATS TRUMP! Bernie Sanders Stands for True Reform  “You can fool all the people some of the time,  and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time." – Abraham Lincoln If there ever was a President for which these words hold true it is, Donald Trump.  I cannot wait for Bernie to  campaign and  debate Trump the Terrible. In politics, there one strategy that stands the test of time which Trump mastered this in 2016.   “The truth doesn’t matter. It is what people perceive to be the truth.” Remember in 2017 from his inauguration up to this very moment Trump has created an alternative universe that has become the “new normal.” If the top echelon of the DNC doubt Sanders   “electability” then Democrats can operate on the basis of fact. The “truth will be the norm.” Let’s be clear, among the Democratic candidates they w...

MSNBC USES SKEWED POLL TO SABOTAGE THE SANDERS CAMPAIGN Sen Bernie Sanders The line-up of MSNBC programming has a history of undermining and ignoring growing success of the Bernie Sanders Movement. This not to suggest these TV hosts are mirroring that of the networks as they may be their opinions. However, this litany of anti-Sanders slurs adds to their job security. First, on the morning of Democrat Nevada debate, MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle presents the finding of a self-gratuitous poll by their measure of electability.  The questions clearly targeted Bernie Sanders. The poll illustrates the constant attack by NBC & MSNBC to sabotage his campaign. Here are three pointed poll surveyed among Democratic voters. A wide majority of American voters do not favor a candidate who: ·          Is a Socialist (67%) ·          Has had a heart attack in past year ·  ...

AN ATTACK UPON OUR JUDICIAL SYSTEM  OUR LIBERTIES AND THE RULE OF LAW IS A STEP TOWARD TYRANNY In a matter of mere days AG Bill Barr allowed a leak from the DOJ (Department of Justice) that he as the top man would be reviewing the sentencing guidelines by his own prosecutors. Standard practice within the DOJ allows the prosecution team to follow federal guidelines for sentencing of a defendent found guilty in court. The AG action soon went from a scandal to a constitutional crisis. Bill Barr makes a weak attempt to explain or defend his position issuing statements that are reminiscent of Donald Rumsfeld. Worse, President utilizes the venue of Twitter to add incriminating evidence that makes Barr's "job impossible." It is Bill Barr using his position to offering confusing legalese to further a contradiction in his declarations. U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell issued a statement attacking Barr's action and in support for Judge Amy Jackson.   "The Ju...

SENATE REPUBLICANS FAIL TO RECLAIM THEIR SOULS AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY Failed State? Within four days the Senate will conclude the impeachment trial by voting to acquit Donald John Trump of “abuse of power” and the “obstruction of Congress.” Working hand in glove with the White House Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has successfully blocked the resolution for additional witnesses and documents necessary for a fair trial. Polls indicate that 75% of Americans are in favor of a fair trial by allowing relevant witnesses to testify and documents be admitted. McConnell and his Republican caucus pushed the Senate vote to prevent John Bolton to testify. The fix is in and acquittal as promised is assured. THE HYPOCRASY OF REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP Over two days of questions and answers in the impeachment trial Republican Senators has shamefully displayed their loyalty to a corrupt president. If we look back to the day Trump descended from the escalator to his inaugurati...
