Here is Pete Buttigieg's high school essay extolling the virtues of socialist Bernard Sanders.

"Sanders’ courage is evident in the first word he uses to describe himself: “Socialist”."

If he still believes this, I'm not interested in him now or ever.

Apparently, Pete still does believe it and said there was "Socialism in Canada and Denmark".

Neither country is socialist...see the image below for the response about claims that Denmark is socialist by the Danish PM.

"I like Bernie. In fact, I liked him long before it was cool. He's moved the debate in important ways, and is pointing to real problems in our political system." - Pete Buttigieg

"The more of these kinds of voters [Trump or Bernie supporters] got up today and decided to vote in the GOP primary, the more the Democratic primary will be driven by the consistent party voters who have plenty of experience turning out for candidates named Clinton."
Pete was completely disingenuous in his interview with Preet Bharara @PreetBharara by misdirecting the question of socialism into an answer about how a dictator (Putin) runs a capitalist country.

Remember a couple of years ago when we thought Mark Zuckerberg was planning to run for President? His first stop happened to be in South Bend, Indiana.

Looks to me like this was all planned for his friend (per spokesperson) Buttigieg's Presidential run.

“Angry liberals don’t really win hearts and minds. At least not where I’m from. I didn’t win 80% of the vote by being angry.” - Pete Buttigieg

Pete went to Harvard with Zuckerberg and Joe Green (Berner and co-creator of the first iteration of Facebook).

Hey, babies, I'm home from some errands and drinking some water, about to go do my daily exercise. When I'm done with that, I'm going to settle in with a thread on Trump's CPAC speech, by popular demand.

Not a line by line dive, it's too long and dense, but some key points.
Okay, so. Trump's CPAC speech. If you would like to read it because you want to know what he said but you can't stand the sound of his voice, or you want to make sure you're catching everything when he's just whoozing out words, here's a link. factba.se/transcript/don…
Like I said, I'm not going to do one of my deep dives but I am going to go over a few themes that I see as emerging from within it. I know I'm coming to this a bit late (sorry, I am still slow off the mark after being sick) so I'm going to focus on some overlooked areas first.

Thread: What Saul Alinsky's Socialist Agenda for The United States Did to the Once Patriotic Democrat Party

1. Vanguard of the Left, social justice warriors galore, “young Americans for socialism,” insane “Green New Deal,” & now infanticide. What happened to the Democrat Party?
2. An excellent explanation of how it happened over the last 50 or so years is contained in this editorial from the Combat Veterans for Congress political action committee (PAC). I’m sure it will resonate with you, too! Here we go:
3. [A quotation frequently misattributed to] 6-time Presidential candidate of the Socialist Party of America, Norman Thomas, accurately predicted that today’s Democrat Party will support Socialism:

It's 10 am, and I'll be here all day, live-tweeting Dr. Christine Blasey Ford's testimony then Brett's lies and every misogynistic moment in between.

#StopKavanaugh
In addition, there will be timely updates and thoughtful takes on our home page from colleagues @joanmccarter @kerryeleveld @Scout_Finch @wallein @HunterDK et al. dailykos.com
Dr. Christine Blasey Ford is here, and she's wearing a cerulean power suit. She looks nervous, keeping her head down--when she finally turned, audible clicks take over the audio.
