I can't tell you how much I appreciate the endorsements of Bernie Sanders, Ro Khanna, Nina Turner & local progressive groups that gave me their support. Their stance took real courage in the face of the corporate media and Democratic establishment onslaught. I want to be free—
of any influence other than the voters of CA-25. I will not be beholden to corporations, lobbyists, or special interest groups and I will not stand by while those groups attack my political allies. That’s why I have decided that I will not be accepting any endorsements.
My job is to represent the voters and the voters alone. The only endorsements I'll be accepting going forward is that of the voters of CA-25.

The anti-Muslim bigot @billmaher thinks the BDS movement is wrong and "virtue signaling." Shocker! He thinks the permanent occupation of Palestine is totally fine because what does he give a shit about those people? They're Muslims!! You know, the irredeemable ones.
Bill, why don't you get more of your right-wing buddies and fellow bigots like @SamHarrisOrg to come on and talk about how Muslims are so different? Their religion is hopeless and it makes them who they are - and that's why we have to have them caged up like animals and occupied.
Then why don't you go cry about how people bother you & your speaking circuit fees on college campuses by being so politically correct. And then go cuddle up to @AnnCoulter because it's fun to help her spread hate against other people because hey, it isn't you! What do you care?

This is a Vermont Castings Vigilant wood burning stove.

The legal battle over this stove would eventually shutter the Franklin stove company, and make Vermont Castings the dominant force in wood burning technology.
2/16

My father came to Vermont Castings as this stove was readying to launch.

I was eight, and after school used to walk to his office in the old plant on Prince Street in Randolph, because my mom still worked at Wheaton College in MA.
3/16 I would draw or do homework at a drafting table in an office they called the "bomb shelter", because its low ceiling, tiny door, and three men over 6'4" working inside.

One day I went to the local Aubuchon hardware store to buy a red plastic sled so I could go "sliding"

What do David Duke, Bernie Sanders, Ann Coulter, Nina Turner, Richard Spencer, Steve Bannon, Andrew Yang, Miriam Adelson, Pat Buchanan, Benjamin Netanyahu, Bill O'Reilly, the Koch Brothers, Sean Hannity & Assad all have in common? Cultist, Tulsi Gabbard

Read about Tulsi Gabbard and run away, fast.

She has a bizarre cult background & is promoted by dangerous right wing racists.

2015 video: Tulsi Gabbard refers to Chris Butler as her “guru dev,” which translates roughly as “spiritual master.”
A 2017 article:

"An Insiders Perspective on Tulsi Gabbard and her Guru"

The group: the Science of Identity Foundation & it was started by a man called Chris Butler, who has variously been known as Siddhaswarupananda, Srila Prabhupada or Jagad Guru"

Bernie admits that HE KNEW the Kremlin was using the emails to divide the left, yet he stood by & watched in silence as his most visible surrogates spread Kremlin propaganda. He tweeted support to Trump voters 3 days before we voted

“of course we knew"
Bernie’s answer when asked by Ari Melber

“Well of course we knew that. Of course we knew that they were trying to cause divisiveness within the Democratic Party"

Bernie didn't tell his supporters that. He stood silent & allowed his surrogates to mock

This video of Nina Turner is from Octobet 31, 2016, 8 days before we voted. Bernie made her Pres of Our Revolution

Sanders' 2020 campaign co-chair made it clear that she did not support the 2016 Dem nominee.

30 yrs of a Trump judiciary at risk

Long, thoughtful, fascinating exploration of #Bernie's history. This narrative makes Bernie immensely more accessible and even likeable. His long financial origin story is quintessentially American in its working-class to riches trajectory.

I've written about #Sanders over the years and like most leftists, thought his politics were an essential prod to others in Congress. But there are details of his political history here that #Bernie should be pushing instead of hiding: like that he was a Harvard fellow.

#Sanders is often presented as s spendthrift, but what propelled #Bernie from 3-term mayor of tiny Burlington into the House was his fiscal responsibility. He literally was deemed the Republican Trotskyite while mayor for reeling in spending and building the city's coffers.

I have a few things to say about this piece that just dropped...

Why the #Bernie Movement Must Crush #BetoORourke
nymag.com/intelligencer/…
The insistence by white male writers that there is a two-white-man race out there between Bernie & Beto is so deeply, stunningly misogynist, it takes my breath away.

How is it POSSIBLE that these folks missed the blue wave which was fundamentally female--driven by women voters?
Not just driven by women voters, but driven by women candidates. Left-leaning women candidates, including WOC who ousted long-time older white male incumbents like....Bernie Sanders.

How is anyone missing this fact?
It's a major reason why Sanders' numbers have plummeted.

"I felt like this was the right time. Although comebacks are all the rage at the moment, I thought it's more important to introduce my music now regardless of that. I worked slowly on my album since 1 yr ago and while promoting with SHINee."
181126 SHINee Key FACE Media Showcase

"If I had released my solo album earlier, I think it would have seemed rushed. I wanted to calmly make music and prepare my stage. I was waiting for the right time for me, and 10 years ended up passing as a result."

"The reason it took so long for my album to come out was because there were a lot important projects that I couldn't easily give up."
