/0 Comments/in , /by

Senator Bernie Sanders leads President Donald Trump by the widest margin of all the candidates in the Democratic Party’s 2020 race when Americans are asked to choose in a face-off against the Republican incumbent, according to a poll.

SurveyUSA asked 4,069 registered voters nationwide how they would vote in an election today if Trump was pitted against each of the 2020 candidates in the Democratic race. The progressive Vermont independent came out on top.

The poll found that 52 percent of voters would choose Sanders and 43 percent Trump, giving the veteran senator a nine-point lead. Next was former vice president Joe Biden at 50 percent to Trump’s 43 percent, a seven-point lead.

Michael Bloomberg, the media and financial data billionaire, also led Trump by seven points at 49 percent to 42 percent. Democratic Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren leads Trump 48 percent to 45 percent, a three-point advantage.

WATCH: Joe Biden Snaps on Reporter, Gets Physical Over Bernie Feud

/0 Comments/in , /by

At a campaign event in Iowa on Wednesday, Democratic frontrunner Joe Biden lost his cool when a reporter asked him about his apparent feud with fellow candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).

“Yesterday, yesterday, you said you accepted Bernie’s apology. Now you’re attacking him. Why are you doing that?” CBS reporter Ed O’Keefe asked Biden, according to The New York Post. “Why wasn’t his apology enough, Mr. Vice President? Why attack Sanders?”

An agitated Biden walked toward the reporter, placed his hands on O’Keefe’s chest, and mockingly shouted, “Why, why, why, why, why, why, why! You’re getting nervous, man. Calm down! It’s okay!”

The Democrat then complained that Sanders only “apologized for saying that I was corrupt, he didn’t mention anything about whether or not I was telling the truth about Social Security.”

The former VP, with a clenched fist, gave O’Keefe a light punch on the chest before turning around and leaving the area.

“I’ll Straight up Get Armed”: Second Bernie Organizer Loves Gulags and Is “Ready for the F**King Revolution”

/0 Comments/in , /by

A second Bernie Sanders field organizer has been caught on undercover camera extolling the virtues of gulags – only this one can barely contain himself over arming himself for the “f**king revolution.”

“I’m ready to tear bricks up and start fighting,” says Martin Weissgerber – who deleted his Twitter account Tuesday morning after Project Veritas released their latest hit. “I’ll straight up get armed … I’m ready for the f**king revolution, bro.”

Weissgerber also dreams of ‘dissolving the Senate, House of Representatives and Judicial Branch’ so that ‘somebody like Bernie Sanders and a cabinet of people can make all the decisions for the climate.’ . . .

[Warning: videos contain explicit content.]

According to journalist Andy Ngo, Weissgerber is an aspiring Soundcloud rapper who hates police officers, Israel, women and of course – Trump supporters.

Bernie Sanders Funneled Taxpayers, School Money to His Family; Sanders and Warren Put Feud Aside

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. During Monday’s broadcast of Sean Hannity’s nationally syndicated radio show, author Peter Schweizer explained how 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) funneled what he deemed to be “taxpayer money” and “school money” to members of his family.

While discussing his new book, Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America’s Progressive Elite, Schweizer said, “Bernie over the course of his 30-plus years in public office has final huge sums of money to his family. That includes hiring family members even when it was not justified in the Burlington city governments. But more specifically, the 2016 campaign, there was this mysterious media-buying company called Old Town Media that was set up.” (Read more from “Bernie Sanders Funneled Taxpayers, School Money to His Family” HERE)

Sanders and Warren Put Feud Aside

By The New York Post. US Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren found common ground in South Carolina — the need to narrow the lead of presidential rival Joe Biden — and shook on it Monday.

The two leading progressives put their differences aside for a morning of campaigning in the state, where the former veep holds a 17-point lead in the 2020 Democratic race, to engage in a hand-grasp heard around the country.

Warren of Massachusetts was in the front row of Zion Baptist Church in Columbia for the state’s largest celebration of Martin Luther King Jr. Day when she reached out her hand to Sanders as he walked to his seat in the same row.

The Democratic socialist from Vermont quickly shook Warren’s hand before greeting nearby US Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii), a longtime ally, with a hug. (Read more from “Sanders and Warren Put Feud Aside” HERE)

Bernie Campaign Staff: Bernie’s ‘a Legit Socialist Masquerading as a Democratic Socialist’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

A new undercover sting video released on Wednesday by James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas allegedly shows a Bernie Sanders campaign official admitting on video that Sanders is just “masquerading” around as a democratic socialist and that the 78-year-old Democrat presidential candidate is actually a real socialist.

The sting video showed a journalist from Project Veritas asking Sanders Iowa Field Organizer Kyle Jurek: “Well what do you think about Bernie, man? Give me your honest–”

“I think he’s a legit, I think that he’s a legit socialist masquerading as a democratic socialist,” Jurek immediately responded. “I think that a lot of his, a lot of the things that he’s suggesting in moving forward takes us further than democratic socialism. Like he masquerades it.”

Earlier on Tuesday, Project Veritas released video that allegedly showed Jurek saying that those who oppose communist revolutions “should expect a violent response.”

“Like, the whole basis of like communism is like people like people and planet above property, right?” Jurek said. “Like we’re here to preserve the planet, preserve people. We don’t want to have to f***ing have to like eliminate people, right?” (Read more from “Bernie Campaign Staff: Bernie’s ‘a Legit Socialist Masquerading as a Democratic Socialist’ (VIDEO)” HERE)

Heated Interaction Between Sanders and Warren After the Debate Goes Viral — and the Audio Was Just Released

/0 Comments/in , /by

A heated interaction between candidates at the Democratic debate on Tuesday went viral on social media, but it took until Wednesday evening for audio to illuminate what was said.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) was seen refusing to shake the hand of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) after the debate. Viewers on social media speculated on what appeared to be a heated disagreement between them.

On Wednesday, CNN reported that they had found backup audio of what was said during the interaction.

“I think you called me a liar on national TV,” Warren said to Sanders. . .

“You called me a liar,” Sanders fired back. “You told me — all right, let’s not do it now.”

Elizabeth Warren’s Debate Stage Antics Prove Her Dishonesty Once Again

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Washington Examiner. On the CNN debate stage Tuesday night, Bernie Sanders flat-out denied that he ever told Elizabeth Warren that a woman couldn’t be president, a hard-to-believe rumor reported this week.

But the debate moderator next asked Warren to respond to Sanders’s statement that a woman can’t win — essentially, accepting the premise of the rumor as if it were established fact. Warren responded, “I disagree,” implying, without any evidence and despite the denial, that he did ask it and saying, “This question has been raised, and it’s time for us to attack it.”

These are just shady underhanded tactics on Warren’s part. She knows Sanders is not a sexist, they’ve been friends for decades, and he’s been publicly saying a woman could be president since 1988. It’s just sad and dishonest that Warren would let this mischief stand, but unfortunately, dishonest politicking is more of the same from the Massachusetts Democrat.

Warren lied, for years, about having Native American heritage, despite being whiter than Wonder Bread and having no valid claim to tribal membership. She also lied about her father being a “janitor” as part of her blue-collar background. This was not true, and Warren’s brother told reporters the false claim made him “furious.” (Read more from “Elizabeth Warren’s Debate Stage Antics Prove Her Dishonesty Once Again” HERE)

Sanders Camp Admits Anti-Warren Script Was Deployed in Multiple Early States

By Politico. The controversial talking points attacking Elizabeth Warren that Bernie Sanders’ campaign deployed were given to teams in at least two early voting states on Friday, three Sanders campaign officials confirmed.

Volunteers and staffers used the script on Saturday while canvassing for votes, meaning the talking points were more official than what Sanders previously suggested after POLITICO reported on the language.

The campaign pulled back the script — which described Warren’s appeal as limited to the highly educated and financially well off — later on Saturday after the story published. Sanders initially appeared to blame the controversy on rogue employees. (Read more from “Sanders Camp Admits Anti-Warren Script Was Deployed in Multiple Early States” HERE)

Warren Claims Bernie Sanders Said a Democratic Woman Can’t Become President

/0 Comments/in , /by

Elizabeth Warren backed up reports that Sen. Bernie Sanders said in a 2018 meeting that he did not think Democrats could win an election with a female nominee.

“Bernie and I met for more than two hours in December 2018 to discuss the 2020 election, our past work together, and our shared goals: beating Donald Trump, taking back our government from the wealthy and well-connected, and building an economy that works for everyone,” Warren, 70, said in a statement Monday.

The Massachusetts senator continued: “Among the topics that came up was what would happen if Democrats nominated a female candidate. I thought a woman could win; he disagreed.”

CNN broke the story earlier Monday, citing two people Warren talked to right after the meeting and two others who were familiar with it. The Warren campaign initially did not comment on the story. . .

Sanders, 78, denied the original allegation, saying that “staff who weren’t in the room are lying about what happened.” (Read more from “Warren Claims Bernie Sanders Said a Democratic Woman Can’t Become President” HERE)

Bernie Campaign Goes off on Joe Biden: He ‘Repeatedly Betrayed Black Voters’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The national co-chair of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders’s 2020 campaign tore into former Vice President Joe Biden’s record on race in an op-ed Sunday.

Biden has “repeatedly betrayed black voters,” Nina Turner argued in an op-ed published in South Carolina newspaper The State.

She hammered Biden’s opposition to forced desegregation busing and his work with segregationist senators and wrote: “Biden didn’t just vote for bills designed to prevent black students from accessing white schools: in a series of personal letters he actively courted pro-segregation senators to support the legislation.”

“Sanders, by contrast, began his work in politics by organizing civil rights protests. As a college student, he helped lead a local chapter of the Congress of Racial Equality in its push to desegregate housing. Sanders participated in the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.’s March on Washington and was arrested for protesting rampant school segregation in Chicago,” Turner wrote.

“In addition, Sanders has been pushing an education plan that supports local efforts to combat racial segregation,” she added. (Read more from “Bernie Campaign Goes off on Joe Biden: He ‘Repeatedly Betrayed Black Voters'” HERE)

Even Obama’s Former Campaign Manager Says Democrats Shouldn’t Nominate Bernie

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Barack Obama’s 2012 campaign manager, Jim Messina, has a message for Democrats seeking to dethrone President Donald Trump in 2020: don’t nominate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).

Messina made the comments in an interview with Politico, published Sunday.

“If I were a campaign manager for Donald Trump and I look at the field, I would very much want to run against Bernie Sanders,” Messina said. “I think the contrast is the best. He can say, ‘I’m a business guy, the economy’s good and this guy’s a socialist.’ I think that contrast for Trump is likely one that he’d be excited about in a way that he wouldn’t be as excited about Biden or potentially Mayor Pete or some of the more Midwestern moderate candidates.”

“From a general election perspective, socialism is not going to be what Democrats are going to want to defend,” Messina added. “If you’re the Democratic nominee for the Montana Senate race, you don’t want to spend the election talking about socialism.”

Team Obama has been sounding the alarm on Sanders for some time, apparently afraid that Democrats will squander an opportunity to defeat the sitting president by nominating a candidate popular with only a small — but vocal — segment of the population.

The former president himself told a group of Democratic donors late last year that he felt the Democratic party was making a mistake in embracing a far-left platform and tolerating Sanders as a serious candidate.
