I think Abuela also overlooked how the celeb thing only worked because Obama was naturally funny and charismatic.

This two tiered justice system is bullshit and should be confronted at every turn. It seemed like Comey wanted to recommend charges w.r.t. the email server, but there apparently wasn't significant precedent and any trial would be hard fought. He suggested prosecutors were chickenshit, didn't he?

The email sever was just one of many kernels of corn on the poo poo sundae that was candidate Clinton.



This Russia investigation could bring up some things, but probably far from the triple dog turbo treason Jen Kirkmen and the like know has been committed.

Parkhomenko is a cop who started the Ready For Hillary PAC after they begged him not to (because it diverted money from the campaign) and was given a make-work job at the campaign after he begged for a month.

Bit surprising to see he's among he barnacles left attached.

The problem I have with the idea that social democracy will solve the new Jim Crow that we're living with is that it sounds like telling Palestinian that their problem is that Israel doesn't have a strong enough welfare system

an ex-liberterian who was all in for abuela is now raising "concerns" about leftist economic policies, the lack of which have destroyed black communities over the last 50 years because centrist dems either didn't bother to fight back against right wing attacks on pro-labor/pro-welfare policies or they actively engage in the dismantling of such systems... wow.. imagine my shock boys!

bad dems never change

quote:

The amendments enacted in Taft–Hartley added a list of prohibited actions, or unfair labor practices, on the part of unions to the NLRA, which had previously only prohibited unfair labor practices committed by employers. The Taft–Hartley Act prohibited jurisdictional strikes, wildcat strikes, solidarity or political strikes, secondary boycotts, secondary and mass picketing, closed shops, and monetary donations by unions to federal political campaigns.

It also required union officers to sign non-communist affidavits with the government. Union shops were heavily restricted, and states were allowed to pass right-to-work laws that ban agency fees. Furthermore, the executive branch of the federal government could obtain legal strikebreaking injunctions if an impending or current strike imperiled the national health or safety.

Taft-Hartley also made it legal for workplaces to run anti-union propaganda in their shops to discourage workers from starting or joining a union.

I'd still, even now, rather be dealing with Hillary's fuckups than Trump's (though I admittedly wouldn't be laughing quite as hard) but god, I don't think I've ever seen someone at her level of prominence melt down quite so thoroughly and quite so unnecessarily and it's kind of actively painful to watch.

She's turning into the political equivalent of Sunset Boulevard's Norma Desmond and if I were William Holden I'd be looking pretty drat nervous right about now.

things that have destroyed black communities:
outright white supremacy (e.g. Tulsa pogrom)
gentrification
"development" (e.g. routing I95 right through the heart of Overtown in Miami)
war on drugs

like it's very weird that neoliberalism has only destroyed black communities while leaving white communities intact

In grad school, some friends of mine worked teaching college-level classes to prisoners. Didn't strike me as the worst thing you could do, but then they were there to work with the inmates, not exploiting them for free labor.

gentrification is an economic issue what the gently caress are you talking about

also, racist zoning laws and war on drugs were things that leftists were calling out WAY before liberals did, you disingenuous piece of poo poo. and to this day the the issues of racist zoning laws still hasn't entered the liberal mainstream. also, white communites aren't intact. there are millions upon millions of white people out there who are as poor as black people but the dems decided to shift the party in the direction of white professionals instead.
