Tulsi condemns Erdogan as being a vicious dictator
Submitted by Alligator Ed on Sun, 03/01/2020 - 10:58pmHave you ever heard anybody in the USG (U.S. government) in the last 10 years saying the truth about the "moderate rebels", aka the moderate head choppers? In fact they'll only cut half your head off.
When's the last time somebody said that the head of an allied country was a malignant dictator?

Cultural neoliberalism was rockin' da house as every branch of government, both state and Federal, was being awarded to Republicans.

The Cost-of-Thriving Index: Reevaluating the Prosperity of the American Family, by Oren Cass, executive director of American Compass is a good read. Okay, "good read" in that it provides a way to objectively quantify why the American Dream is becoming A Nightmare on Elm Street for so many people.

Yes, Steyer is a billionaire, but his thing is the environment. It is very possible a lot of his backers might now support Bernie because of that.
