Plus the entire concept of dropping a character like that into the DC universe, where magic and supernatural phenomena exist, was completely ridiculous. In the real world, guys like the Amazing Randi performed a public service by exposing charlatans. What's even the point of making fun of them?

Those finding merit in that view are strictly limited to the Clinton cult and people who don't know how congress works.

The reason: corruption. The Clinton cult offers the bizarre view that it's some kind of knock on Bernie Sanders that congress is full of corrupt slugs who prostitute their public offices for fortunes from entrenched interests to oppose the kind of progressive legislation Sanders proposes.

Clinton and her minions were the ones who undermined their "own side" in 2016 (no one STILL missing that fact needs to be lecturing anyone else about any failure to learn), and neither Clinton nor Sanders have anything to do with anything happening in Texas now.

The Blood Spattered Bride. 1972. Bleak and beautifully haunting adaption of Le Fanu's Carmilla. Boldly surreal Spanish stunner with a beguiling Bastedo.

Not really a great movie but whenever someone calls a movie "visionary," this is the sort of thing they're describing.

And this...

"Your man Bernie torpedoed a healthcare bill Hillary had the votes for in 1994 because it wasn’t to HIS liking."

...is entirely fictional in every respect.

Single payer advocates were entirely excluded from Clinton's healthcare task-force. After progressives (including Jesse Jackson) objected to this, one was eventually allowed in. He was greeted with hostility by the other members and entirely ignored.

When Bernie met Hillary Long before challenging Clinton, Sanders reached out to her on health care. He got nowhere.

And, of course, Sanders had nothing to do with that. He'd pitched the Clntons on universal healthcare right after Bill had taken office, and they weren't interested.

Clinton didn't "have the votes in 94"; all 4 versions of her awful Hillarycare program--filched from the Republicans--failed because none could manage even majority support in a body controlled by Democrats.

This reflects a lie Bibi Nazi Yahoo has been peddling since the early '90s. The U.S. intelligence assessment, in the meanwhile, has, for years, been that Iran abandoned its nuclear weapons program in 2002 (don't know if that has changed since).

Secretly Taped Audio Reveals Democratic Leadership Pressuring Progressive to Leave Race In a frank and wide-ranging conversation, Steny Hoyer laid down the law for Levi Tillemann. The decision, Tillemann was told, had been made long ago.

That was Steny Hoyer, the #2 Dem in the House at the time, caught on a secret recording trying to basically strongarm a progressive Dem out of a competitive Colorado congressional race in which the DCCC had endorsed one of his opponents, a corporate lawyer.

Then, when the run for again, after having racked up such an appalling record, the DCCC spends a bloody fortune to reelect them. It's a bleak cartoon I've covered here many times.

When, boosted by this largess, these DCCC-backed "Democrats" win, they immediately join the conservative caucuses devoted to turning the Dem party into the Repub party and spend their stint in office opposing Dem policies and teaming with Repubs to pass some of that party's worst legislation.

These endorsements mean that the DCCC, which represents the current weak, feckless congressional "leadership" that spent the last year laying down for Trump, will be showering money on these anointed candidates and directing a fortune in donor money their way.
