Episode 806 | Sanders Claims Victory in Iowa | Media Propping Up Pete | Warren Team Defections
--
Finally, after three days of Pete claiming victory, Bernie Sanders has declared victory in Iowa based on the 6000 additional votes he got over Pete. But is it too late? New polling shows that Pete has closed the gap in New Hampshire to 1% which means New Hampshire is anyone's game.

The media has been complicit in propping up Pete. Particularly MSNBC. Listen to several clips where they completely engage in doublespeak to help Mayor Pete.

Several Black women have left the Warren campaign citing being "tokenized" by management and having their complaints ignored by HR. This does not bode well for Warren at all. Additionally, I feel like this marks the beginning of the end for Warren. However, I'll make the case in this episode that we need not slamdunk over this defection because of how pervasive the issue of tokenization is in ALL of politics from Conservatives to Communists. Not only that, we need to win as many of them over as possible.

Should Sanders team call for a recanvassing? The DNC already has. But my concern is whether we can trust the people who would be involved in the recanvassing. I'm not sure that we can. What do you think?

Finally, a young teenaged Black girl was assaulted by an NYC transit officer over a $2.50 turnstile fee that, as I have been informed, is free for school-aged children anyways. Let's talk about the racial dynamic, but also the class element of cities extracting another TAX from working people through these fees, citations, etc.
Thanks for being a patron! Have a wonderful weekend!
