    The Sanders campaign announced the cancellation of their rally first, which was slated to take place in Cleveland, Ohio. “Out of concern for public health and safety, we are canceling tonight’s rally in Cleveland,” the Sanders campaign spokesman, Mike Casca, said in a statement Tuesday afternoon. “We are heeding the public warnings from Ohio state officials, who have communicated concern about holding large, indoor events during the coronavirus outbreak.” CORONAVIRUS: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW “Sen. Sanders would like to express his regret to the thousands of Ohioans who had planned to attend the event tonight,” Casca continued, adding that...
  • James Clyburn: Time to shut down the primaries and cancel the debates to protect Biden

    03/10/2020 6:38:03 PM PDT · by Bigtigermike · 79 replies
    @Miles Parks- NPR Rep. Clyburn on NPR just now: "I think when the night is over, Joe Biden will be the prohibitive favorite to win the Democratic nomination... If the night ends the way it has begun" it's time to "shut this primary down," meaning the DNC should "step in" and cancel future debates. He says prolonging the primary process only makes it more likely that the favorite, Biden in his eyes, "gets himself into trouble" and hurts himself for the general election

    Phillip Agnew, a newly appointed senior adviser for Bernie Sanders’ 2020 presidential campaign, came under fire over the weekend over uncovered tweets from 2009 where he spoke despairingly about former First Lady, Michelle Obama. In the tweets Agnew commented on Obama’s looks, while also touting conspiracy theories regarding America’s involvement in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City.(snip) In one of the tweets from October 22, 2009 Agnew wrote, “Random thought while standing in Gas Station: Michelle Obama is an odd looking woman…I’d rather call her ugly but I don’t want the...

    Standing in front of the library of the University of Michigan on Sunday, Bernie Sanders could be excused if he paused a moment to reflect on the estimated ten thousands of cheering supporters. It was 60 years ago at the University of Chicago that Sanders began what he later described as "the major period of intellectual ferment in my life". Sanders joined the Young People's Socialist League and other organisations and organised his first protest. He could only marshal a force of 32 students to occupy the administration building, but he ultimately prevailed. Sanders spent much of his life fighting...

    Bernie Sanders is another fraud that is coming from the left. A few days ago news broke out that US officials have told Bernie Sanders that Russia is trying to help his campaign 30 days ago, prompting the frontrunner in the Democratic race to strongly condemn any interference. He stayed quiet as always. His communist’s past is nothing new, he spend a lot of time in Moscow and praised socialists and communist doctrines in the past. His base is nothing but far-left protestors that were exposed during recent Project-Veritas videos. What we didn’t know is that he is planning an...

    And then there were two - unless you count Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii), who has about the same chance of winning the Democratic Party’s nomination for president as does Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.). The last (serious) woman candidate in the race - Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) - has dropped out. The only openly gay man in the race dropped out a few days earlier. All the candidates of color are gone - again, unless you count Tulsi. And, now, all that’s left are two white men, both closer to 80 than 70. Right from the jump, Democrats bragged...

    It’s uncertain which precincts are involved or if the apparent winners from any races will change. Dallas County Elections Administrator Toni Pippins-Poole discovered her office did not count about 10% of the ballots that voters cast on Super Tuesday. She is now asking a court to let her conduct a manual recount of the votes, after she discovered 44 thumb drives containing ballots that were not included in the final results.

    ANN ARBOR, Mich. - They’ve watched their parents and friends struggle to pay medical bills. They’ve spent time in Spain, Australia and other countries where people don’t have the same worry. They live at home instead of the college dorm to try to cut down on what they’ll owe in loans. They question whether to have kids in an environment where the effects of climate change are getting worse by the day. The young Bernie Sanders supporters who gathered for a Super Tuesday watch party in Michigan came with reasons both personal and ideological for wanting him to be president....

    Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) held a massive rally in Chicago, Illinois, on Saturday, drawing thousands of supporters and telling them that President Trump is “moving this country into an autocracy.” ... Sanders told that crowd that, in order to defeat President Trump in November, Democrats will need the largest voter turnout in the history of America. “That turnout looks like Grand Park today,” he said. Sanders described the president, as he has in past stump speeches, as a “pathological liar” and accused him of “moving this country into an autocracy.” While Sanders told supporters that he and his opponent, Joe...

    A couple of recent data points highlights a purposeful plan where the DNC Club wants Bernie Sanders crushed this month, well ahead of the Milwaukee DNC convention. Last night the New York Times posted a blistering expose’ on Bernie, complete with journalists traveling to the former Soviet Union city of Yaroslavl Russia, to dig up opposition research they could deploy framing Senator Sanders as a comrade to Russian interests. The Times research team presented an 89-page “Bernie Dossier” of sorts. NYT […] The New York Times examined 89 pages of letters, telegrams and internal Soviet government documents revealing in far...

    Former Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden said Friday that his campaign had raised $22 million in five days amid a surge in support following his South Carolina and Super Tuesday wins. Biden's victory in 10 of 14 states that voted Tuesday not only resurrected a campaign that had been left for dead just weeks ago but vaulted the former vice president ahead of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in the race for delegates for the Democratic nomination. The former vice president shared his fundraising update on Friday during a call with supporters at a Bethesda, Md., fundraiser while...

    Have you seen Bernie press conferences lately? He has to read notes for things he has said 1000s of times, lackluster, no energy. If he is like this during the next debate then Biden will look like energizer bunny in comparison. Something is odd about this.

Background: In 2015, Bernie started his presidential campaign as an underdog against the Queen of democratic party Hillary Clinton. He ran a great campaign focusing on working-class regardless of religion and race focusing on economic issues raising record-breaking donations from average Americans. Eventually,...

    Profit seeking companies have cured cancer, reversed heart disease, and caused every other advance you can name for the past 100 years of medicine. A tiny fraction of innovation comes out of the NIH or non-profit society grants – and those ideas that are generated would invariably sit on the shelf without the work and investment of profit-seeking venture capitalists and companies guiding the idea through clinical trials, regulatory hurdles, and production. The majority of the profits that provide the incentive for innovators worldwide come from the US, and other healthcare systems piggyback (and rip off) our system to take...

    Sen. Bernie Sanders, battered from his defeat in many Super Tuesday contests, warned President Barack Obama not to endorse Joe Biden, Obama’s former vice president who is now running neck and neck with Sanders for the Democratic nomination. “I have not the slightest doubt that there is enormous pressure on President Obama to jump into this race and support Joe Biden,” Sanders said during a press conference about the status of his campaign. Sanders told reporters he backed Obama’s pledge to support the Democrat who wins the nomination and his private assurances that he would not get involved in the...

    The Super Tuesday narrative is that Biden was vindicated and heÂ’s stronger than ever, but the primary map and the upcoming states suggest otherwise. With a sweep of the south and key victories in Minnesota and Massachusetts, the media narrative today will be all about how Joe Biden is the comeback kid, back from the dead, risen like a Phoenix from the ashes. That sort of thing.ItÂ’s the kind of story the media loves. They love it so much it doesnÂ’t matter whether itÂ’s true, or whether the media was writing Biden off less than a week ago.

    Former Vice President Joe Biden is projected to win more than half of the 14 states holding contests on Super Tuesday, exceeding expectations for a campaign that was in serious trouble just weeks ago. Biden’s eight victories included upsets in Minnesota, Oklahoma and Massachusetts, where he defeated Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and home-state Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D). He was also competing hard with Sanders for Maine, another state where he had been seen as a big underdog. Biden won blowout victories in Alabama and the swing state of Virginia, and was building big leads in North Carolina, Tennessee and Arkansas,...
