Which is why it's puzzling when Sanders signal boosts Communist dictatorships rather than modern Norway. He shouldn't be doing this at any stage, especially during a debate. This is the material his opponents need to do Red Scare tactics on him and he gives them it on a silver platter.

Public enemies. #ThanksBernard
I'd presume its because Cuba is more in the average Americans mind then Norway, nods towards the actual communists/hardcore socialists whose votes he wants and trying to play up the positive aspects of Cuba over the negative (the very very negative) cause its startling how good their healthcare is compared to yours.
Or he's just incompetent. Never assume malice when stupidity will do
Evidently, Kamala Harris will endorse Biden.
Sanders is toast.
Yeah...its not like Chuck D explained why he did it. Oh wait he did. And it had nothing to do with Bernie and more to do with Flav being an ass.
Again, this is weak sauce. Go after Bernie for something legitimate, not because some asshole rapper got into a tiff cause he didnt get paid

“Flavor Flav has been on suspension since 2016 when he was MIA from the Harry Belafonte benefit in Atlanta, Georgia,” reads a joint statement signed by members Chuck D, DJ Lord, Jahi, James Bomb and Pop Diesel. “That was the last straw for the group. He had previously missed numerous live gigs from Glastonbury to Canada, album recording sessions and photo shoots. He always chose to party over work.”
They continued, “Public Enemy Radio toured Europe and co-headlined with the Wu-Tang Clan in May 2019 without Flavor. “They have also done numerous benefit shows without Flavor … While Public Enemy Radio was moving forward, Flavor Flav was starring on the reality show Growing Up Hip-Hop New York, where an episode featured his children discussing an intervention and putting him into rehab … It’s time to move on and everyone wishes Flavor well.”
Flav says Chuck is lying about his behavior.

He's the injured party here so I'm not as liable to believe him frankly. And at the end of the day he's the one who started this. Just because he doesn't like Bernie doesn't mean he needs to get lawyers involved. We all dont like aspects of our job but put up with them.

Super Tuesday Is Do Or Die For Warren And Bloomberg
The political rivals both need a Super Tuesday surprise to justify staying in the race.

Task Force Expert Instantly Contradicts Trump On ‘Quick’ Coronavirus Vaccine — Again
“Like I’ve been telling you, Mr. President,” it’s going to take a year and a half, corrected Dr. Anthony Fauci. Meanwhile....

‘National Scandal’: ER Doctor Slams Trump Administration’s Coronavirus Testing Logjam
“I’m a practitioner on the firing line, and I don’t have the tools to properly care for patients today,” warned Manhattan physician Matt McCarthy. More people need to listen to this man.

Putin Calls For Russian Constitution To Define Marriage As Heterosexual
The Russian president is said to be aiming to modify the nation’s constitution to enshrine what he sees as moral and geopolitical values for future generations. Don't think bible thumpers and the Republicans who shamelessly slurp them aren't drooling over doing that here.

Trump’s Fox News Feud Deepens As He Slams ‘Politically Correct’ Network
The president is not happy the conservative news network is giving airtime to Democratic candidates. It looks like this marriage is pretty much over. Aww, what a shame.

Woahhhhhhh! Just looked at Elizabeth Warren's Twitter. Her latest post... dayum. I eventually stopped scrolling, because I couldn't find a non-Bernie Bro post telling her to drop out/endorse Sanders. Do people not understand telling someone to drop out has THE OPPOSITE effect? What possible motive would she have to help Sanders? Because his fans are being sooooo nice. She could get a major boost today. I just... don't understand what they think their nastiness will achieve?
Ah, thank-you both.
Ah I see, thank-you
Which is a perfectly fair attitude to take, and one I understand. I think people were objecting to your earlier post implying Sanders will get things done, when Biden wouldn't (citing the senate/congress as the reason Biden would fail). Being honest that they are both hampered but you'd rather have Sanders have a go is a very, VERY different story than "Biden will be hampered, Sanders will get things done". If that makes sense?
Looking at Warren's twitter... true...
Agreed. There's a reality of office that does clip some wings, and you realise everything isn't as easy "I'll do this, I'll do that." I remember Obama saying he'd shut Guantanamo Bay the day he got into office, but the reality is once he was president, once the CIA (or whoever) came to him with all the illegally obtained confessions of the worst offenders, that cannot be used in court... he realised while the ideology is "that's wrong, we close them" how as the leader of a country do you let certain people back in, knowing what they could do/wanted to do/will do. I'm not saying you can't then say "no, let them go, this was wrong" 100%. But it's a lot harder to make that call when faced with it.
It's like pushing the nuclear button. All the UK leaders say they will (they have to, otherwise the threat holds no weight), but in reality... I'm willing to bet 90% of the Letters of Last Resort don't say retaliate.
"We are Shakespeare. We are Michelangelo. We are Tchaikovsky. We are Turing. We are Mercury. We are Wilde. We are Lincoln, Lorca, Leonardo da Vinci. We are Alexander the Great. We are Fredrick the Great. We are Rustin. We are Addams. We are Marsha! Marsha Marsha Marsha! We so generous, we DeGeneres. We are Ziggy Stardust hooked to the silver screen. Controversially we are Malcolm X. We are Plato. We are Aristotle. We are RuPaul, god dammit! And yes, we are Woolf."
I actually agree with Corbyn regarding Nukes. Utter waste of time and money. Whomever fires at us is going to get obliterated anyway because no one lets rogue states exist, as an invasion deterrent our island status makes us reasonably safe and our enemies either dont have the fuel, political will or competency to actually invade. Also Trident leaves us tied to paying out constantly to the USA.
Yup.

Obama needed congress approval to close Guantanamo Bay and move the inmates to other prisons.Agreed.

Btw, the October Revolution was when the Communists took over Russia. You got it!
