It is a fact that Ku Klux Klan rallies in the 60's that had been organized to rally against the integration of schools and the Civil Rights Bill, as well as the Voting Rights Act, were often promoted with slogans such as "America First" and "Protect the Future of America!" with their message centered around virulent patriotism and restrictive immigration. They claimed, just as Trump does, that anyone who disagreed with them was anti-American. If you choose to waste time watching that rally on Fox News tonight, take note of how many times that Trump will accuse a black person of hating America versus how many times he will make the same accusation against a white person... I'm betting that you will see a huge disparity. It's just a glorified Klan rally. Alas, I will not be watching... have fun.

Weak AF argument. You can link just about any modern saying to something terrible. Plenty of Hitler and Stalin esqe lines out there in modern government.

I certainly don't agree with many of the viewpoints of the "Squad", and I don't think most Democrats do. Still, listening to Hitler like chants from his Republican base (that claim to be Christian) is chilling.

All this ugly may not hurt the Republican party, but I noticed during communion Sunday that the churchgoers are getting fewer and older.. I have no other explanation except that people who claim to love God are pushing good people away from the church by defending or staying silent.

I also agree with Burger (and the Pulitzer Prize winning NY time reporter who was interviewed last night) that Trump likes the Democrats to lose focus and become upset.

Like many of us who want this hate to end, I am looking at the field of Democrats and hoping someone has (among other things) solutions for the millions of people who work in the insurance industry when they scream "Medicare for all". Would also like to know how they plan to pay for all this free stuff besides mumbling about Wall street and Rich people. Biden is my guy right now-- Delaney and Bullock seem normal. Will see more during the debate.

What Trump is trying to do is peg every Dem to be the squad. It's literally just branding. I don't think he means a thing he says most of the time.

Wall Street Liberals: Warren ‘Better Form of Poison’ Than Sanders

Harris supporter predicts Wall Street types will stay home if Warren wins nom

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) was called a "better form of poison" than Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) by an ex-Wall Street executive resigned to her winning the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.

The executive anonymously told Politico to expect Warren to get the nomination and Wall Street to adapt to a potential Warren presidency.

"Wall Street is very good at accommodating itself to reality and if the reality is the party is going to be super-progressive, they may not like Warren but she's a better form of poison than Bernie," the executive said.

Robert Wolf, a venture investor and former adviser to President Barack Obama, told Politico she's "preferable for many reasons" to Sanders, if it comes down to one of the two in the crowded 2020 field.

Democrat who introduced articles of impeachment walks off CNN during live interview

Democratic Rep. Al Green abruptly left in the middle of a live interview on CNN Thursday, a day after he pushed for the vote to impeach President Trump. The House vote was 332-95 to table the impeachment resolution on Wednesday evening.

CNN's Kate Bolduan asked Green if he was playing into the president's hand because Trump mentioned it during his rally in North Carolina the day before calling it "a disgrace."

"The base is not the American people. The American people don’t want to tolerate bigotry. I just have faith in the American people and I will continue. We will March on until victory is won," he answered.

"The speaker and I have the same goal and that’s to do what’s in the best interests of our country. We have different paths but the same goal. I must tell you, I have a vote that’s on now and I must leave, so I do appreciate you very much, but I do have to run now. Thank you," the Texas Democrat said before leaving abruptly.

"Welcome to live television," Bolduan said while laughing.

Why Democrats’ oversight machine is moving so slowly against Trump

Lawmakers say they are building a record of White House resistance to testimony from Mueller witnesses — but angst on the left is growing.

House Democrats have kicked and screamed about the White House’s refusal to allow key Trump officials to come before Congress. But they haven’t done the one thing they can do to force the issue: Go to court.

Democrats have handed out procedural slaps on the wrist — from subpoenas to contempt citations — and all have been summarily blown off by a White House claiming “absolute immunity” from congressional testimony.

The seeming lack of results has fueled criticism among progressive lawmakers and activists. But there are real reasons for the go-slow approach: An overstretched team of House lawyers along with Democrats’ fear of an adverse court ruling that could have long-lasting ramifications.

Hillary Clinton: Trump Rally Shows ‘Time has Come Again’ to Fight for Democracy

Twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has joined the chorus of outraged Democrats ripping President Donald Trump’s Wednesday evening rally in Greenville, North Carolina, where he once re-upped his criticism of the far-left Democrat “Squad.”

“Democracy may be our birthright as Americans, but it’s not something we can ever take for granted. Every generation has to fight for it,” Clinton wrote on Twitter Thursday morning. “After last night’s Trump rally, it’s clearer than ever that the time has come again.”
