hello dana: bernie sanders described aptly how i feel about the middle east. there is no room for antisemitism or any other violent rhetoric. Bernie makes this clear. So far as Trump and Maga folks are concerned they use the situation as a political lever….. like Trump most of them don’t even know who Fredrick Douglas is, let alone Rabbi Leo Baeck i’m sure they’d say the same of progressives such as myself or bernie. A sort of ideological circular debate. Trump represents the Spirt of our times to a large extent. Again i’m sure his ilk would argue the opposite. netanyahu is nothing like Trump but in my view he is also a Titan and not an Olympian. Another of Trump’s appeal to his base is that of a “bad boy.” Resentment and inferiority feelings might be a common denominator with Hitler and his base. Trump’s appeal is to the shadow of American society, as was Hitler’s to Germany in his day. But Trump’s appeal is quite shallow by comparison. He doesn’t carry the numinous aura of an archetype, which instills fear and trembling. In our time superficial is popular, much more than profound or visionary, and that’s why he’s successful to the degree he is. This is the nature of postmodernity. Trump is, in a sense, a man of these times. Maybe he does belong on the cover of Time magazine after all. He represents well the spirit of these times.” Murray Stein I don’t agree with everything Bernie says, but Bernie forces us to check our projections. Having Bernie uncomfortable for you, i can tell. but it’s brave and a good start. nice work Dana.

These 2 are elitist trash

Dana, Great questioning of Donald Trump’s lawyer today.

I like Jake Tapper that he does an excellent job with the follow up questions and doing his homework on his guest. Diana bash just kind of seems to ask questions and allows them to make false statements without any follow up or correction.

I’m 40 years type 1 diabetic, insulin dependent. What I’m telling you is a fact. I or anyone can go into Walmart pharmacy (for the last ten years) buy a vial of insulin, no prescription, no doctor, no insurance (please pay attention now) for $24. Anytime during the last 10 years. No insurance, no doctor, no prescription, voila. Thus, the hoopla about reducing insulin costs is ?

I am really impressed by Ms. Bash who is always calmed, composed, and clean during interviews.

I find it extremely refreshing to hear interviews with leading politicians which do not allow evasive pivots and dismissal of important questions. Holding politicians accountable is fundamental in good journalism. This podcast is especially effective in forcing politicians who dodge and ignore questions to respond. Responsible and honest leaders do not need to ignore questions, pivot, or dismiss topics which they declare to be unimportant. In this age where truth and open discussion are less frequently offered by elected officials, we need more aggressive and hard hitting interviews such as this podcast provides.

A great show to hear republican lies. As long as they keep letting the GOP go on the air and spread proven lies they will continue to lose viewers. We are sick of the steamrolling lies and bullies. I will not support air to the lies of the Trumps. Goodbye CNN

These are the people that claimed they had the “smoking gun” of ‘Russian collusion’. Democrats collaborated with the FBI, who were given cover by the corrupt corporate media, to perpetuate the DNC/HillaryPig narrative. Time to SILENCE these evil, pathological liars. They hurt this country every day.
