Jimmy Dore is a left-wing conspiracy theorist, and I believe he also disputed Syria gassing its own people during Obama's administration.

Even Assad and Putin made the bullshit excuse that a Syrian war jet bombed a terrorist gas factory which resulted in the deaths, and was not a Syrian gas attack.

Jimmy Dore for some reason doesn't understand that dictators don't act rationally according to Western standards, or that Al Qaeda and ISIS don't have air forces.


I don't know the solution, but the U.S. becoming isolationist isn't the answer.

Right-wingers think it's a False Flag too. Just look up the Twitter hashtag for #SyriaHoax

For Bliss....3:40 to 4:15.

This is the reality many of us recognized about Trump from the beginning, yet many of his core supporters are pretending Trump has become something different in his 70s that he's never been his entire life.

Trump has NEVER looked out for the interests of someone else above his own. Even most congressman who are former lawyers at least had a financial and ethical responsibility to represent the best interest of their clients.

That's never been Trump's M.O..

Is this all suddenly new to you, AB? Correct me if lm wrong, but how many privacy-lost threads did l post during the Obama era? Suddenly NOW because it's Trump, people are crying and bitching.
Forget the NSA, the DMV, State and Federal agencies who sell our private info - Facebook have done this for years, and Google made a monster industry out of it.

Btw, Comcast is a full left wing Hillary Supporter and donater, company. No surprise they aren't fighting something that benefits their bottom line of they chose to go that route.

However, every major internet-connect company claims they aren't selling our info and won't be. So not sure what Cenk wants to "fight" at this point. He never bitched about it before..The horse left the barn years ago on this bs.

"The new law preserves a two-track regulatory system that treats internet service providers — the companies that connect you to the internet, which are overseen by the FCC — differently from web-based companies like Google and Facebook, which are regulated by the Federal Trade Commission.

The rules passed last year, by what was then a Democratic majority on the FCC, would have required ISPs to ask you explicitly to "opt in" to letting them share personal information. On web-based ad networks, data sharing is usually turned on by default and you have to dig through menus and settings to opt out of it.

ISPs argued that the Obama-era regulations would have put them at a disadvantage — and the White House agreed.

"The rule departs from the technology-neutral framework for online privacy administered by the Federal Trade Commission," the White House said. "This results in rules that apply very different regulatory regimes based on the identity of the online actor."
Broadband providers, meanwhile, said consumers had no reason to worry.

"We do not sell our broadband customers' individual web browsing history," Comcast said in a statement last week. "We did not do it before the FCC's rules were adopted, and we have no plans to do so."

(NBC News is a division of NBCUniversal, which is owned by Comcast Corp., the nation's largest cable provider.)

Similarly, Verizon said in a statement: "Verizon does not sell the personal web browsing history of our customers. We don't do it and that's the bottom line."
 
The Prime Minister of Sweden has vowed his country will 'never go back' to recent levels of mass immigration after it emerged the terrorist who killed four people in a truck attack was a failed asylum seeker.

Stefan Löfven pledged to change his country's liberal attitude, insisting the massive influx allowed during the 2015 migrant crisis would never happen again.

"Everyone who has been denied a permit should return home.

'This makes me feel enormously frustrated. If you have been denied a visa you are supposed to leave the country.'..


Akilov has allegedly confessed to the attack and told investigators he was 'pleased with what he had done' and had 'accomplished what he set out to do', it was claimed.

Police sources said a bomb, found in the truck but which failed to detonate, contained gas canisters, chemicals and nails.
 
What a time to be alive. Mr. Bill "beat my wife in front of my child" O'reilly is being sued for sexual harassment . Sounds like he might not have a show. Also, Brannon is being pushed out. The new generation is pushing these old farts out.

The Democratic party establishment could have pushed James Thompson to a victory, but they did nothing. On the latest episode of Aggressive Progressives Jimmy Dore and Steve Oh discuss the recent election in Kansas.

Jimmy Dore and Steve Oh skype call Nomiki Konst for this week’s episode of Aggressive Progressives. They discuss all things Governor Cuomo.

"Since losing the presidency to a Cheeto-hued reality TV host, the Democratic party’s leadership has made it clear that it would rather keep losing than entertain even the slightest whiff of New Deal style social democracy.

The Bernie Sanders wing might bring grassroots energy and – if the polls are to be believed – popular ideas, but their redistributive policies pose too much of a threat to the party’s big donors to ever be allowed on the agenda.

Even a symbolic victory cedes too much to those youthful, unwashed hordes who believe healthcare and education are human rights and not extravagant luxuries, as we saw when the Democratic establishment recruited Tom Perez to defeat the electorate-backed progressive Keith Ellison for DNC chair.

The Democrats demonstrated this once more this week when, in a special election triggered by Trump’s tapping of Mike Pompeo for CIA director, a Berniecrat named James Thompson came painfully close to winning a Kansas Congressional seat that had been red for over two decades, and his party didn’t even try to help him."*

When you treat politics like a game, you’re going to end up with news coverage that cares more about drama than it does about the truth.

CNN has modeled it's political coverage after shows like ESPN's "First Take," pitting commentators against each other to argue about the day's news stories. That makes for cheap and entertaining television, but in the Trump era, it's turned CNN into a circus of bullshit and misinformation.
