Given all that, the U.S. still abandoned them with next to no advanced warning that they were doing so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted October 29, 2019 Members Share Posted October 29, 2019 Former NC senator Kay Hagan has died. https://www.politico.com/news/2019/10/28/former-north-carolina-senator-kay-hagan-dies-060172 Hagan unseated longtime media favorite Elizabeth Dole in 2008, and was seen as a very strong campaigner. She had the misfortune of being up in a terrible year for Democrats, but she still only narrowly lost to the current waste of space in that seat. Sorry to hear of her passing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted October 29, 2019 Members Share Posted October 29, 2019 (edited) I definitely understand why Rankin couldn't bring himself to shake McConnell's hand. McConnell has a lot of [!@#$%^&*] to answer for when it's his time to go. And all because Trump couldn't stand that the narrative was focused so much on the impeachment inquiries. It's frightening how so much of our direction depends entirely on his fragile-as-hell ego. Edited October 29, 2019 by Khan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 29, 2019 Members Share Posted October 29, 2019 So, yesterday there was a prison town hall, only three Democratic candidates showed up and there was next to no coverage in the media about it. Hm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted October 30, 2019 Members Share Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) I was wondering what happened with it. I read about it on twitter and then I looked for it and couldn't find any info on it. I looked for it on MSNBC because I thought Ari Melber was hosting but nada. Only Booker, Harris, and Steyer showed up. Why am I not surprised. Edited October 30, 2019 by JaneAusten 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JaneAusten Posted October 30, 2019 Members Share Posted October 30, 2019 It's admirable that they did this and I appreciate the historical significance of where they held it BUT. Where was everyone. Lord Harris who has been attacked endlessly for some concerns about her record yet I don't see anyone who criticized her(Bernie) at this event. Shameful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 30, 2019 Members Share Posted October 30, 2019 I read that Julian Castro had visited a prison in D.C. earlier that day, and although I'm sure the inmates there appreciated his visit, some were asking why didn't didn't didn't participate in the town hall and there was some tweets about how the organizers of the town hall felt that Castro had undermined their event. A few people mentioned that Beto O'Rourke visited a prison in San Quentin last month. It is indeed shameful that many of the surrogates and supporters who attack Harris over her "record" as a prosecutor, (although just about all of those claims have been debunked, people still choose to use the same talking points), none of those candidates decided to show up and there's no mention of that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted October 30, 2019 Members Share Posted October 30, 2019 I can't say I ever had a good feeling about Patel but it is breathtaking how many fakes and frauds there are in the Trump administration. Just about everyone there is a liar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
