Bernie Sanders defends Hamas, Chicago Mayor – Latest News
Diary of disturbing disinformation and harmful delusions
This response:
CNN’s Dana Bash, Sunday: “Would you say that Hamas has some culpability in people starving?”
Sen. Bernie Sanders: “No.”
We say: Huh? Hamas began the warfare that’s led to Gaza’s struggling. It steals food from civilians.
It might finish the warfare, and food shortages, tomorrow — by releasing hostages and surrendering.

But, no, per Sanders, the fear group has zero culpability for hunger in Gaza. What’s improper with this man?
This comment:
“I don’t want to hear about this bulls–t about what y’all’s constitutions [say about redistricting].” — Rep. Marc Veasey (D-Texas), Saturday
We say: Oops. In urging “blue states” to disregard their constitutions’ guidelines on redistricting and “redraw [GOPers’] asses out,” Veasey by chance confirmed what Republicans have long charged: Democrats don’t care about law and democracy; they simply need energy.
And will do no matter it takes to get it, legal or not.
This declare:
“Trump . . . has always been intimidated by the intellectual prowess of black men.” — Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, Wednesday
We say: Wow, Johnson sure pulled this out of nowhere — besides possibly his own obsessions with race.

Anyway, Trump took a bullet and by no means misplaced a beat, was hit with 91 legal prices plus a civil effective of almost a half billion bucks — and received the presidency decisively.
He doesn’t appear “intimidated” by anybody.
This assertion:
“Frankly, I don’t care if al-Sharif was in Hamas or not.” — Foreign Press Association president Ian Williams, Tuesday
We say: Williams solely cares that Anas al-Sharif was a journalist, as if that makes a crime out of the IDF assault that killed him.
As for Israel saying he was a Hamas member, Williams blurs that “Hamas is a political organization — as well as a terrorist organization, perhaps.”
Perhaps? Hamas massacred 1,200 harmless Israelis in a single day; there’s no doubt it’s a terrorist group, and al-Sharif was honest recreation.
