Bernie On The Outs?

Bernie has a heart scare. "Dropping out" of the race is not supposed to include an actual thud on the floor. He may come back from this but, well, he's not coming back from this.

Thoughts 'n prayers, comrade.

Glad he found competent medical care in time.

No surprise that was in the US (instead of NHS of your choice).

Congrats to Noah Lyles for winning the 200 meters at Doha in the World Track and Field Championship then standing on the podium receiving his gold medal and putting his hand over his heart and mouthing the lyrics of the national Anthem.

I got home in time to see what I think was probably the last 1/3 of the press conference. I will go watch the beginning later.

[MissMarple2]

Porchlight,

Thanks for the link to the live feed of the press conference.

What I saw was great!

[D]

I also vote in favor of Field of Dreams!
Bidens are definitely grifters and opportunists.
All will be revealed,
We need to get the Durham report and FISA report from Horowitz out right now to stop this impeachment BS in its tracks.
Also all the dirt we have on Schiff must be declassified and put out for the public to peruse.
If they can illegally spy on the President we can fix them all to kingdom.
Agree with Jane and the idea of a Dem cover up.
Absolutely.
We must blunt this impeachment effort by publishing and declaring the truth about the coup and the unmasking of innocent Americans. citizens.

[D]

Should be expose them all to kingdom come.

[D]

As to Bernie:
Would not count him out yet.
Sympathy vote could help him.
At least he isn’t lying about his health like Hillary did.

[Porchlight]

Welcome, MM! I'm at work so will have to watch later.

Big Chief Running Tab must be smiling today.

[Comanche Voter]

Well having a heart problem is one of those things that comes with advancing age. And Bernie sputters and gets red in the face so much that I would have guessed he was a serious candidate for a stroke.

But a stent is not so much. I have a friend of about Bernie's age who's had more stents in his heart than Zsa Zsa Gabor had diamonds. Physically Bernie can come back from this. Politically maybe not so much.

But anyway, I wish him the best--along with a long and happy retirement in one of his three homes.

[James D.]

But anyway, I wish him the best--along with a long and happy retirement in one of his three homes

I don’t wish him the best.

I wish him what he would consign all of us to, with his “Medicare for all” proposal: a year or so spent in waiting rooms only to be denied the treatment he needs, then a couple of months of pain and terror and helplessness before the merciful end comes for him.

I have no good wishes for someone who wants to take away my freedom and my ability to make any meaningful choices for myself, while having the gall to tell me it’s for my own good, and while enjoying at my expense a lifestyle he would never allow me to even dream of.

[Jim Eagle]

Well, Quid Pro Joe is known for running his mouth without consequences but now I think there is a different sheriff in town.

[GUS]

Did Bernie get to keep his Doctor?
Man has never had a JOB in his life, but he lives like a CZAR.

[GUS]

Joe Biden is the exact problem with POLITICIANS.
He is a clown, but power has kept him in the LAP OF LUXURY. His load of blustering bullshit is transparent.

MSM offended by Trump's "crude & unpresidential" remarks about Pelosi wasting time on "bulls**t" & Schiff not being able to carry Pompeo's "jockstrap." Where was their outrage when Clinton used cigar as marital aid on intern in Oval Office? Or LBJ making reporters watch him poop?

[Jim Eagle]

Jane,

According to MM's 4:04 the day is getting better every second:)

This guy Schiff is a real piece of work who thinks in the Washington D.C. information dissemination industry that this would never get out? Can I remind everyone, at least from my time there, there are no secrets in D.C. but also there is no truth. Take your pick.

[hrtshpdbox]

You should, he's a human being with a health problem. Bernie's not evil, he's just wrong.

Term limits is the answer for people like Nadler and Oelodi and Schiff.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

[James D.]

Hrt, the best you could possibly say for Bernie is that he is willfully ignorant of what the policies he advocates for would result in, and what they HAVE resulted in everywhere they’ve ever been tried.

That’s a lot more than “just wrong.”

[Threadkiller]

I think being pro-abortion is evil. Heart-Bern is pro-abortion.

Fuck him.

[MissMarple2]

I have to say that the coup-plotters should be very scared. President Trump had that "You tell 'em I'm comin', and hell's comin' with me" look.

I only wish he had had a shotgun he could have fired up in the air.

So Schiff coordinated w/whistle-blower from the start. And Blasey-Ford ran to Democrat partisan lawyers/reps in Kavanaugh. And those who said, maybe politics is at play, get dismissed as Trump sycophants. Come on.

Would any other POTUS if asked that question at 4:54 actually say the cold hard truth like Trump? NO.

Quid Pro Joe's 1st real negotiation in this timeline was when his son Beau silenced Obama's fag druggie sex toy, Larry Sinclair.

IMO, that was the trade that got Joe the VP slot.

Since the guy went to Schiff and his staff BEFORE he went to the ICIG, he is by definition NOT a whistleblower!

In that case MissM, Ron Johnson should subpoena that whistleblower asshole pronto. No lawyer (per Schiff rules), in public under oath.

1/ The NYT confirmed what I said last week: Schiff knew about the CIA whistleblower in advance -- way in advance. Before he even filed his complaint. This is a much bigger scandal that people realize. At a minimum, Schiff should recuse himself from this impeachment inquiry.

If you want a hint as to why we are considering a major law suit a small example is Adam Schiff. We can allege he advanced information he knew was false as part of first frame-up and, let’s not prejudge this one, but not looking so good. Keep following the real story

We are carefully considering our legal options to seek redress against Congress and individual members. For engaging in an organized effort that exceeded their limited powers, under the Constitution, and...

"I can unequivocally state that neither any member of the legal team nor the whistleblower has ever met or spoken with Congressman Schiff," @MarkSZaidEsq, one of the attorneys representing the whistleblower, tells me. https://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/ny-trump-evidence-schiff-helped-whistleblower-complaint-20191002-vd5l2luegrd4tlm7gg4dh7uakm-story.html …

[Porchlight]

Looking now like Schitt directed the spookleblower to file the complaint.

Spookleblower just wanted to pass along the info in the regular spook manner, but Schitt wanted to orchestrate something larger.

Schitt was in a hurry and stepped on his liddle member in the rollout, because his plan didn't allow for Trump beating him to the punch with the release of the call transcript.

This is moving along nicely.

https://twitter.com/scottwongdc/status/1179496750756827137?s=21

But @RepRaskin says the packet of propaganda "raises profoundly troubling questions."

"Why was Sec. of State Pompeo in possession of this packet of disinformation? Why did he distribute it and circulate it? ... So I've got to say that it raises more questions than answers."

More @RepRaskin: It's "a packet of propaganda, and disinformation, spreading conspiracy" that was intended to target fmr US Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch (whom Trump recalled from her post in May).

"Those conspiracy theories have been widely debunked and discredited."

Who is @RepRaskin? Our profile from March: "The often-disheveled former constitutional law professor has carved out one of the most important roles in the House as Democrats contemplate their investigations of Trump in the wake of the Mueller report."

Well I hope so anyway.

You can't be a whistleblower if you don't tell the ICIG first. There is no protection for someone who goes to Congress first. And he can be charged with releasing classified information to Schiff. He is subject to criminal liability.
