Srzok attorney responds to firing, calling it “deeply troubling” and “not only a departure from typical Bureau practice, but also contradicts Director Wray’s testimony to Congress and his assurances that the FBI intended to follow its regular process ...on all personnel matters”

You're talking about one day. The article referenced all the elections through July. How is that irrelevant? Further, how can you deem something irrelevant if you were unable to read it?


You're better than this.

Certainly, there are policy differences among Democrats, and those will come out whenever they are again in a position to govern rather than resist. But Democrats are more ideologically homogenous than they have been historically. The Southern conservatives are long gone, and there is no equivalent to the “New Democrats” of the Bill Clinton era. The party has been pulled to a populist consensus by Sanders and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), and pushed there by the Trump plutocracy, which has showered riches on the wealthy and the corporate.

Some within the party are fomenting division with litmus tests, such as Tom Steyer’s effort to get Democrats to commit to impeaching Trump. But while 71 percent of Democrats want impeachment, according to last month’s Quinnipiac Poll, there’s little evidence that voters are punishing candidates who don’t commit to what would be a futile gesture without a Democratic supermajority in the Senate.

Likewise, Sanders-allied activists are pushing for a “Medicare for all” litmus test — and almost all Democrats favor at least some form of Medicare buy-in. But there’s little evidence that voters punish candidates who are reluctant to abandon Obamacare for a Medicare-for-all aspiration that can’t happen while Republicans hold the White House.

@JohnBrennan
You’re absolutely right. If you were “presidential,” you would focus on healing the rifts within our Nation, being truthful about the challenges we face, & showing the world that America is still that shining beacon of freedom, liberty, prosperity, & goodness that welcomes all.

Because I am talking about one day, and you posted the article as if it was some sort of response when a) it apparently is discussing more than the day I was speaking about so who cares, b) I cant read it so posting it as a response was pointless, and c) Any article attempting to sow division or paint actual Progressives as some sort of kooky pipedream when they just had their best day ever is neither helpful or accurate.

There will be a news dump soon because of this...play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

I don’t care for Trump at all but Omorosa is a hoe.

What this tape confirms is that Trump is the biggest "I'll be nice to you, I won't say it to your face" bytch ass nikka in the world.

I cant read what isnt there. I dont disagree with the sentiment of the segment you went back and edited in - throw the bums out first, then we can hash it out between Dems. I just dont agree with any entity trying to push this notion that the Bernie-AOC coalition is too far left or not realistic or cant win when they are winning.
