Bernie Sanders
Related: About this forumA couple of things that have come front and center.
1) Rachel Maddow has become one of the biggest corporate shills in MSM. It's become gut wrenching to watch her anymore.
2) The very phoney "Tax calculator" that some very privileged people are using to whine about having to give back to those that have allowed them to be so damned privileged to begin with. They make me want to vomit.
3) The establishments attack aimed at Bernie Sanders and his supporters, is just making us stronger and more determined.
I was reminded of these beefs when a speaker at Bernie's latest rally in Wisconsin thanked him for giving her cause a platform to speak from.

(1,377 posts)I was offered 7million to bad mouth you all...I would do it. But I would slip a bit money donations to Sanders. You know it would be like Catholic Church commit sins and then just make sure to give into the collection plate for forgiveness.

Both backing Hillary and the corporate machine!
but Chris Hayes didn't have a reputation for being a great journalist. Rachel Maddow has truly soiled herself.

(9,688 posts)OK. $7million.
That's not hard for me to understand.
I'd sell out for less than that, but I don't have so much to sell.
Being honest here.
What I don't get is that she should somehow be aware that if she can command $7million then she's good to go, universally, and has the freedom to follow her youthful ideals.
She didn't have to do this.

(4,879 posts)$7million is bargain basement when it comes to ones soul. She sold herself cheap.

(9,688 posts)My God, but Morning Joe just recently was the most friendly toward the Sanders campaign than I've seen from ANY of the other hosts, since this primary began. All that shows is how much the others have acted like creeps all this time.

(4,879 posts)I've only seen what is posted on the internet. I first knew Rachel from Air America.

(6,719 posts)I live in a senior mobile home park and it is sort of like a condo complex. We get cable whether we want it or not. So I watch Tiny Homes, House Hunting International, Washington Week, Bill Mahr, and John Oliver. Smile. But the so called cable news is off my schedule. Sad. Rachel used to be great. I do watch the growing alternative media on YouTube.
Have a good weekend.

Major Hogwash
(17,656 posts)And I imagine Bernie will win by an even bigger margin after more people see that video of Hillary berating the Green Peace activist.
So, even though MSNBC is in the tank for Hillary, it isn't helping her win primaries.
One other thing -- political pundits like Rachel will hold on to their job even if our candidate loses in the fall.
So, they have no skin in the game.
They couldn't care less who wins or loses, because they know they will still keep their comfy job at MSNBC continuing to pontificate about the dismal political atmosphere, whether Democrats or Republicans are in control of the White House.
