out, we don't need him too. That one tweet alone about the Democrats...what the actual fuck.

This is the Democratic version of the tea party. I'm calling it the Latte Party. Or better yet the Green Tea Party. I am unhappy that our side does not fall in line. It's like there is no practical thought...just emotions.

We'll never know much about the payment.... George II Jul 2019 #12

What's funny? lapucelle Jul 2019 #16

Thanks, but we already fed our dog tonight. George II Jul 2019 #14

That is not very nice. sheshe2 Jul 2019 #18

I'm thinking that they are saying the OP has an ax to grind with AOC and or her chief of staff. UniteFightBack Jul 2019 #39

No, it's a saying. Not saying anything about the op. gtar100 Jul 2019 #45

You know perfectly well that's not what they meant melman Jul 2019 #46

Are you saying you'd rather this be covered up Cha Jul 2019 #20

Nope. Just that it will be used to to distract us from the core messages gtar100 Jul 2019 #48

No it won't.. her COS is doing that all by himself. Cha Jul 2019 #50

I hate that the right-wingers exposed this but OKNancy Jul 2019 #4

WaPo picked up the story and reported it as news. lapucelle Jul 2019 #7

I agree.. I have no problem with your post at all. OKNancy Jul 2019 #8

Thanks. Apparently somebody thinks a "dog has a bone". lapucelle Jul 2019 #9

But that person failed to disclose whether he or she thought that it was a prime soup bone, Blue_true Jul 2019 #11

Seems there is some scraps on this bone. Fuck em. nt UniteFightBack Jul 2019 #40

Yeah, he got called out on that one (and others) so deleted it, even though he stands by his point.. George II Jul 2019 #13

Sharice Davids? sheshe2 Jul 2019 #17

That's disgusting. lapucelle Jul 2019 #21

Excellent question and I don't have a clue. sheshe2 Jul 2019 #24

Maybe she agrees with him and shares his views. comradebillyboy Jul 2019 #55

Hardly surprising. Didn't the justice democrats support her primary opponent? GulfCoast66 Jul 2019 #29

Yes they did, GulfCoast. sheshe2 Jul 2019 #30

I find the whole 'racist but does not know it' spin particularly insulting GulfCoast66 Jul 2019 #33

Yes, as did Senator Sanders obamanut2012 Jul 2019 #65

Yep. They are playing from the same score. GulfCoast66 Jul 2019 #70

Chakabarti again.. what is Cha Jul 2019 #19

seeing as you made an OP of this RW-pushed tosh, I shall reply as I did when you slipped it into a Celerity Jul 2019 #23

I'm sure if you wanted to you could have found non-right wing sources for most, if not all... George II Jul 2019 #26

there are very few non RW stories on it, and I used a couple, plus it IS a RW-started story Celerity Jul 2019 #27

The OP was based on a Washington Post article. Ask trump if they're a "right wing" source. George II Jul 2019 #28

This message was self-deleted by its author Celerity Jul 2019 #32

they got the story from RW sources, and it was a RW non profit who filed the complaint Celerity Jul 2019 #34

The OP's source is the Washington Post obamanut2012 Jul 2019 #66

yes, but WaPo is simplying reporting a RW-started, RW-spread (ALL before the WaPo story) series of Celerity Jul 2019 #68

Thank you Celerity LiberalLovinLug Jul 2019 #111

Thirteen of those disgusting right wing sources post-date the Washinton Post story. lapucelle Jul 2019 #44

as I showed in multiple posts, the entire thing was started by a RW podcaster, then a RW non-profit Celerity Jul 2019 #67

Pls give us the short version. What's your take on this? Any merit to the allegations? brush Jul 2019 #52

There could be some merit, it certainly bears looking into.... George II Jul 2019 #57

Thanks. Sounds like some fast maneuvering going on with the funds. brush Jul 2019 #61

Here are some of the details (I did this earlier in the year, had to check the numbers): George II Jul 2019 #63

I think JD, OR, BNC and Chakrabarti Vegas Roller Jul 2019 #88

My link is to the Washington Post. lapucelle Jul 2019 #42

In addition, the tweets from Chakabarti speak for themselves still_one Jul 2019 #54

Chakrabarti gave an interview to the Washinton Post magazine that was published this week. lapucelle Jul 2019 #56

Thanks. The more he opens his mouth, the more he exposes himself still_one Jul 2019 #58

So he's putting money over the climate? George II Jul 2019 #59

It's been a while since it was last posted in March. Autumn Jul 2019 #60

Paul Krugman agreed that is was a dodgy attack on progressives Celerity Jul 2019 #62

Wow melman Jul 2019 #69

Yes. Autumn Jul 2019 #71

I am going to argue quite forcefully that there can never be too many facepalms in this matter. betsuni Jul 2019 #118

OMG sheshe2 Jul 2019 #119

Exactly!!! A perfect example of double speak. still_one Jul 2019 #82

When anyone says a person color actions are racist, they are calling them racist. sheshe2 Jul 2019 #84

I think all of this is just sour grapes on the part of Mr. Chakrabarti. Remember: George II Jul 2019 #86

LOL. sheshe2 Jul 2019 #87

That may have added insult to injury in the mind of Chakrabarti once Davids won... George II Jul 2019 #89

77 to 7... sheshe2 Jul 2019 #97

I actually mistyped - it was 7 of 79, or 8.8% George II Jul 2019 #99

So it is worse. sheshe2 Jul 2019 #100

Yeah .. 95% of the candidates espousing that ideology LOST n/t Vegas Roller Jul 2019 #90

This is about Justice Democrats and Brand New Congress, NOT AOC. Here's Cenk's explanation. lapucelle Jul 2019 #85

So says Cenk, the multi millionaire. sheshe2 Jul 2019 #94

Chakrabarti is a multi-millionaire, probably many times over. He was the founding engineer.... George II Jul 2019 #95
