All of my Warren friends are actually more progressive than Elizabeth Warren herself. Here is a statement by her strongest supporters who are now joining the #NotMeUs movement and supporting Bernie Sanders. medium.com/@michaelbarth_…
And if you are still waiting for Warren to endorse Bernie, then you're wasting your time. She didn't endorse him in 2016 and she will not endorse him this year. The fact that she is still "thinking about it" is a non-endorsement in and of itself. medium.com/@michaelbarth_…
This movement is unstoppable, with or without Warren, and for that matter, with or without Bernie. #NotMeUs

OK friends, this is serious. I know we all want Trump out of the White House, and it looks like the establishment Dems and the MSM are set to make him the nominee. They are white washing his record on war, racism, poverty, inequality, finance etc.1/n
This man is a warmonger with the blood of thousands of innocent Iraqis and US soldiers on his hands. He did the dirty work in the Senate to give W Bush the authorization to invade Iraq in 2003. Watch this if you care, and vote your conscience. 2/n
If you choose Biden, this one is on you!
And if this doesn't make you as angry as Bernie, then you should vote for Biden. 3/3

I get asked questions like this all the time "Is #MMT consistent with a post-capitalist system? #Socislism? #Imperialism? XYZism?"
MMT is compatible with any political system. 1/n
#MMT is an analytical approach that carefully estimates how much fiscal policy space a country has to meet its national priorities without causing #inflation. 2/n
Those national priorities are determined by a political system that can be participatory/dictatorial/fascist/capitalist/socialist/communist, or whatever. 3/n

So if you have any doubt about this being a #ParadigmShift, check this out. A colleague from the humanities is teaching a social science class this semester. She decided to introduce her students to different theories about #money. 1/n
Naturally (dare I say?), a basic intro to #MMT was in order. One of the sources was episode 2 of the @MMTpodcast by @christreilly (a comedian) & @PatriciaNPino (an engineer) discussing #MMT & #MonetarySovereignty. 2/n

I'm told that this sparked a very lively discussion that will continue in class next week. I've always said that this paradigm shift will not take place under the leadership of mainstream economists & their admirers. 3/n

I am endorsing @BernieSanders for President and encourage my fellow @ewarren supporters to join me.
As a pledged delegate candidate for Warren, this was not an easy decision. But supporting Sanders is now the only path to the big, structural change that Warren champions, 1/
Warren is the best candidate for President I have seen. Her vision of substantive change is sweeping, detailed, & rigorous & responsive. I also believe she has a real plan for implementation. Her campaign has been clever, exciting, and nuanced. 2/
As a delegate candidate, I literally signed a pledge to support Warren. But I can't in good conscience support an unrealistic, undemocratic plan to win a brokered convention w/o a significant bloc of delegates. 3/

#Bernie supporters on Reddit are taking the loss well. Calling voters in SC “rodents”, saying black voters in Southern States shouldn’t matter, and calling South Carolinians “uneducated.”

#SouthCarolinaPrimary
#BidenForPresident
#BernieSanders supporters are saying that black voters are “low information” and “voting against their interests” and “out of touch” and “are only voting for Biden because of Obama and not his policies”

#SouthCarolinaPrimary
#BernieSanders supporters:

“years of terrible education in the south due to racism have caused black voters to not get the education necessary to see that only Bernie can help them... it may be necessary mobilize and discourage certain Black voters from turning out.”

#BERNIE SANDERS = THE MORAL CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT

It's been a long journey to reach that conclusion. Please hear me out.

My journey started in Beirut, where I grew up in a brutal civil war. Violence and injustice everywhere.

But today's America alarms me more than Beirut...
BERNIE SANDERS = THE MORAL CHOICE

In America today, children are stolen from their parents, locked in freezers, caged, gunned down in schools.

Billionaires get richer while children go hungry, homeless, and without healthcare.

A society that brutalizes children is BROKEN...
BERNIE SANDERS = THE MORAL CHOICE

When I quit my music career to become an anti-Bush activist at the turn of the millennium, it stunned me to see the Democratic Party, my party, largely go along with Bush's assault on civil liberties. Torture. War based on lies. Patriot Act...

FACT CHECK: IS #BERNIE VETTED?

I've forcefully rebutted the myth that @BernieSanders faces a damaging oppo dump in a general election. But the false narrative persists, so let's clarify:

1. #BernieSanders HAS been thoroughly vetted.

2. There is no mystery oppo out there.

...
@BernieSanders FACT CHECK: IS #BERNIE VETTED? (2)

3. Sierra Blanca. NRA. Crime bill. Rape essay. Russia. Socialism. Etc. All of these have been raised repeatedly since 2016.

4. I saw a comprehensive opposition research book on #Sanders. Nothing in it hasn't been aired publicly.

...
@BernieSanders FACT CHECK: IS #BERNIE VETTED? (cont.)

5. I was a Clinton adviser in 2008, not 2016. But I worked with Brock and others associated with her campaign.

6. I was a staunch Hillary advocate and ran a media company in 2016. We did extensive research on Bernie's issues and history...

#NotMeUs -- Why do they hate?

Because we're an asset. Now we're the target. And we're the headline. All week.

Rude "bros" is the strategy coordinated in tandem with Warren's gut wrenching hit job. Provoke into anger then embarrass for anger... which further
(1/21)
provokes. There will be preening celebrities, op-eds, and undisclosed paid surrogates echoing the same narrative.
They want to shame us.

It's well known in strategy in politics that one of the best tactics is to turn an opponent's biggest strength into weakness.
(2/21)
That is what adversaries are attempting to do here with their supporter-maligning. The candidate with the most committed enthusiastic support won almost every presidential election in the past 40 years. Reagan, Bill Clinton, GWB, Obama, Trump. Poll after poll shows

Elizabeth #Warren has just proven she cannot unify the Democratic party.

For those not aware, she attacked Senator #Sanders directly today by reviving smears from the 2016 primary and recast herself in the performative victim role of Hillary Clinton that we all found so

(1/16)
very endearing. This is the first time either Warren or Sanders attacked each other directly and given the desperation one might expect with her declining numbers, it was Warren who launched the grenade. She used an unverified and heavily disputed report of a lower level
(2/16)
volunteer canvassing script that distinguished her GE electoral coalition as "affluent and highly educated" to claim that Bernie was sending volunteers to "trash" her. Quite a stretch. She then launched into a nervously delivered pathetic 2-minute long monologue
