Culinary union says Bernie Sanders wants to "end" their health care.
Translation: Warren won't endorse a campaign where booing Hillary Clinton or other Democrats is a thing. Seems important comrades.
Chapo Trump House and co. are to blame for a lot of progressives defecting from Sanders 2016 to Warren 2020.
Bernie cultists are giddily declaring him the frontrunner with zero awareness that whoever wins will have the grave responsibility of defeating Trump in the general in what may not be a fair election thanks to foreign interference and Bob Barr's DOJ coups.
Autocrats in 🇸🇦🇹🇷🇷🇺🇰🇵 all have a strong interest in Trump winning, as does Netanyahu. That's potentially a lot of Biden "investigations." Barr could re-open the FBI investigation of Jane Sanders for bank fraud if Bernard triumphs or leak his FBI SWP file.
In case people are wondering why I'm so skeptical of the Sanders' campaign's ability to drive a negative message against Trump... 🤦♂️

Hardly "inexplicable":
✅Competing for the same lane as Sanders
✅Sanders had a four-year head start
✅Having a plan for everything except how to pay for M4A, the biggest program
✅Not having a good counter when rivals pointed out #3 in debates

Someone let @sunraysunray know his strategy for Sanders is working great with an important union in Nevada.
Weird how Bernie bros act like scabs.
+1 Biden. Do Bloomberg next.
Amazing how many Bernie bros became experts on the intricacies of union politics inside @Culinary226 in the last 24 hours. I can only imagine the positive impact their tactics will have on Nevada media coverage and on rank-and-file opinion at a critical time before the caucus.
Was I wrong in February 2019 about the Bernie bros, Chapos, and Jacobins?
🤦♂️
I wasn't inclined to believe this "scoop" but then Bloomberg started hate-tweeting Trump like 30 seconds after I saw the report.
Perhaps the nastiest smear yet coming from Bernie bros this year is this lie about @Culinary226 leader Geoconda Argüello-Kline being "a contra!!!1!" simply because her dad was in the Nicaraguan military in 1979 (spread by Chapo Trump House's subreddit).
Geoconda Argüello-Kline's family fled 🇳🇮Nicaragua in 1979, including her father, and they all got low-wage jobs.
By definition none of them were Contras b/c they didn't fight the Sandinistas but fled. Contras stayed and fought. This is a racist smear. d.library.unlv.edu/digital/collec…

I've got news for comrade Sanders. The GOP establishment is 110% behind Trump + you can't beat him without the Democratic establishment 110% behind you. Start acting like the presumptive nominee, unite those who can be united or get destroyed like Corbyn.
This racist Citizens United-loving Tucker Carlson toady will do everything in his power to make sure the Democratic Party self-destructs so that America's Bolsonaro wins again.
🇷🇺Russia doesn't want a Sanders presidency but it does want a divided and destroyed Democratic Party. They are trying to capitalize on anti-Sanders backlash as well as the divisive/polarizing aspects of the Sanders campaign simultaneously.
🇷🇺Russia's 2020 election interference effort will likely use the same 2016 tactics (hacks, "leaks," provocations) but with different targets and timing to match new circumstances like Sanders being the Democratic nominee.
🇷🇺🇨🇺Glenn Greenwald and The Intercept will almost certainly be keeping the Sanders-centrist war going after the 2020 Democratic convention given that they were publishing GRU exclusives throughout fall of 2016 to sabotage Clinton.
There have already been 1,000+ 🇷🇺phishing attempts targeting all the leading Democratic candidates (meaning the Sanders campaign also) thus far.
