[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. That's *just* what we need right now.

The GOP Senate just fucked us all and the Bernieites are booing Hillary???

8. Neera tweeting a Fox News link.

[RandySF]

11. JFC, it's all over the place.

[DanTex]

12. And yet she tweets a Fox News link.

[RandySF]

14. .

[DanTex]

15. I wouldn't tweet a Fox News link. But then I'm not Neera.

[DURHAM D]

25. Even though it is a story about Hillary supporting these women? ???? nt

[DanTex]

28. Haven't read the story, I wouldn't trust Fox to tell it without right-wing spin.

[DURHAM D]

29. Oh. That makes no sense. nt

[sheshe2]

62. Maybe Bernie should not do Town Halls on Fox.

[Cha]

102. No you are Not. you support BS embracing joe rogan..

Neera does Not.

[Gothmog]

136. You are Wtong

The quote is accurate

[dware]

16. So you're saying it's not true because it's a Fox News link?

Even though it's all over the place?

[DanTex]

17. No. Just saying she tweeted a Fox News link.

[dware]

21. And...........?

[DanTex]

27. Fox is right-wing media. Owned by Rupert Murdoch. Not a friend of Democrats.

[sheshe2]

46. Ummm....okay.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) became the first Democratic presidential contender to participate in a Fox News town hall on April 15, and debated about taxes, health care and the direction of the country.

103. BS did a Town Hall on "fox news"

[UniteFightBack]

124. Her words are her fucking words. You are something else. nt

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

22. And your point is...?

[DanTex]

26. Fox News is right-wing media.

[dware]

31. Sure they are,

but, are they wrong on this?

Or are you just trying to distract from BS's supporters being bat shit crazy?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

36. Yes. But what they reported was factually correct.

So why does it make a difference if the reference is to Fox or to the identical story reported elsewhere?

[dware]

43. It's called distract, distract, distract. nt

[BannonsLiver]

139. Then why did Bernie do a town hall on Fox?

Or did you forget about that?

[DanTex]

142. To reach a wider voting audience. Is that bad?

[sheshe2]

35. I don't understand the issue.

She tweeted a Fox News link and Bernie does a Town Hall On Fox in prime time. Lots of links.

The issue is?

[greatauntoftriplets]

135. So take it up with her.

[Gothmog]

137. Again the quote was accurate

[DURHAM D]

13. lol Is that all you have?

It is a link to a story about Hillary supporting those women.

oh well...

[Beaverhausen]

32. How is that a Fox News link?

And obviously you are ok with this.

You think this helps us? How?

[DanTex]

33. Because it says "foxnews.com" in it.

[Beaverhausen]

37. Where?

What am I missing?

[DanTex]

39. In the link that Neera Tanden tweeted. Post 3 at the bottom.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

38. If it's true why does it matter?

[DanTex]

40. Because Fox is right-wing media, and they spin things against Dems.

[dware]

45. So are they spinning this?

Or is it your intention to distract from the fact that BS's supporters are sowing discord among Dems, thereby helping the Mango Menace?

[DanTex]

50. I don't know, I didn't read the article. Fox tends to spin things.

[dware]

54. So you chime in and pretty much dismiss the story

without actually reading or watching it?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

56. The video speaks for itself. No spin needed.

She said what she said and you can hear her say it, loud and clear. There's no spinning or unspinning that.

[jcmaine72]

138. I've been coming to DU for a few years now and....

this is the first time I've ever seen a thread with a fox news link in it that wasn't summarily shut down and instantly dismissed out of hand, no matter what the story's veracity. I wonder why this post is different?

[sheshe2]

61. Bernie Town Hall @ wait for it....Fox News!!!

FOX sponsored a town hall meeting with Bernie Sanders in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania

[DanTex]

68. Trying to reach voters across the spectrum.

[dware]

73. You don't thing you're being just a wee bit hypocritical here?

[DanTex]

74. No.

[Cha]

106. of course you don't

[sheshe2]

76. ;)

[dware]

79. Hi sheshe2.

[sheshe2]

84. Hey, dware.

Good to see you again.

Keep on trucking!

[dware]

88. Setting at a Pilot Truck Stop in N. Las Vegas right now,

have a delivery in the morning and then I start my 34 hour reset, so I'll be posting a lot this weekend, not much else to do.

[betsuni]

81. A big wee.

[dware]

83. LOL. nt

[sheshe2]

85. All the way home.

[Cha]

105. BS went on a "fox news" town hall.

[George II]

53. So you condone what Tlaib did? It's not just "Fox News". It's all over NBC, CNN, etc....

...facts are facts, truth is truth, regardless of the source.

[DanTex]

59. Nope. Nor what Hillary did. It's all a circular firing squad.

[George II]

63. This is 2020, and we have an important election ahead of us. Tlaib did nothing to help Democrats.

Hillary Clinton isn't running.

[DanTex]

72. Tlaib isn't running either. Neither Tlaib nor Hillary helped Democrats. They were both wrong.

[Cha]

108. she's surrogate for BS

[UniteFightBack]

125. Apparently she is running since she said the haters will SHUT UP when WE WIN on Monday.

I hope fucking Sanders gets his ass reamed.

[BannonsLiver]

141. She is running actually. Just not for president.

In our govt. reps run every two years.

[Cha]

100. And, that's your take..

[Gothmog]

113. LOL

18. This. This is what worries me

Bernie’s crowds. Not Bernie so much but his supporters.

[DURHAM D]

23. Bernie does nothing to stop his supporters hatred.

Therefore one must admit that he likes it.

[madaboutharry]

4. That was wrong of her.

This feud isn’t good for democrats.

[virgogal]

5. Rude.

[dem4decades]

6. Did she also start the lock her up chant? Does Bernie use Trump's playbook?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

10. Some of his supporters clearly do.

[dem4decades]

99. Lol

[stonecutter357]

7. WOW !

[betsuni]

19. What's their problem?

[ChubbyStar]

34. Rashida is a she not a they

So it should be what's her problem, obviously she does not like Hillary, why is that a problem?

[betsuni]

49. They. The booing started in the audience.

Obviously this is a problem.

[ChubbyStar]

52. For Rashida or hillary?

[dware]

58. For the Dem Party. nt

[ChubbyStar]

65. Sorry, I believe the Dems are grown ups

Politics is rough and tumble.

[dware]

70. Some Dems need to still grow up. nt.

All this does is help the Mango Menace in the upcoming battle for the Presidency.

[ChubbyStar]

75. That is pretty dogmatic

But hey, it is your opinion. Thanks for sharing.

[dware]

82. And your opinion is just as important.

Thank you for sharing.

[UniteFightBack]

126. So we have a completely corrupt party w/ the pukes and then you have these fringe people attacking

the party from within. Democrats voted for these people....maybe that's not important to them.

[betsuni]

67. Watch it. "... somebody by the name of Hillary Clinton said that nobody ... " (booing from audience)

"We're not gonna boo, we're not gonna boo."

[ChubbyStar]

77. I watched it, so what now?

I'm supposed to agree with you now...nah.

[dware]

51. Yeah, it's a problem.

It's sowing discord among Dems, which only helps the Mango Menace.

[C Moon]

110. Timing. We are heading into a MAJOR FUCKING MAJOR future for the U.S.

and this idiotic "boooooing" of Clinton?
Idiotic.
Fucking idiotic.
Boo Trump.
Boo McConnell.
Why do I have to explain this to you now?

[Vadem]

41. Isn't it correct that Hillary dissed Bernie last week before this

gathering? So who has to apologize first ?

[Quixote1818]

86. Exactly. Hillary said she literally might vote for Trump over Sanders.

And Sanders folks are just supposed to take that lying down???? Give me a break.

[DURHAM D]

91. She said she would not campaign for BS and might not endorse.

Can not find where she said she would not vote for him.

[dware]

93. Can you provide the link where she said that?

I've googled it and I can't seem to find it.

[LongtimeAZDem]

95. Where did Hillary say she might vote for Trump?

And she warned against party disunity when facing off against an incumbent President Trump in 2020.

“That cannot happen again,” she said. “I don’t care who the nominee is. I don’t care. As long as it’s somebody who can win, and as long as it’s somebody who understands politics is the art of addition, not subtraction.”

When promoting the film, she initially declined to tell The Hollywood Reporter whether she would endorse or campaign for Mr. Sanders if he were the nominee; hours later, she clarified on Twitter that “I will do whatever I can to support our nominee.”

[MrsCoffee]

114. Bull fucking shit.

Nice fucking try.

No, actually, it wasn’t.

[betsuni]

115. +1

[mindfulNJ]

132. Huh?

Link please.

[UniteFightBack]

128. Oh does she have surrogates out as well doing that? Yeah I didn't think so so sit down. nt

[Blue_true]

44. I really hope that her and all the Gang except the one supporting Warren

get strong challengers in their democratic primaries. AOC may have one if a woman named Elizabeth Crowley enters the NY14 democratic primary.

[still_one]

47. Wonderful. She effectively booed all Hillary supporters. Let's see how well that works out for her

candidate

[aikoaiko]

48. that's the thing about opinions.

And Rashida Tlaib ain't scared of Hillary.

[George II]

57. But with stunts like that, she should be scared of a primary opponent OR a republican opponent.

[aikoaiko]

69. When you're authentic -- you're not scared.

And I don't think Clinton clout is that big in Michigan.

[George II]

71. Yes, when you're authentic -- you're not scared. Tlaib better be scared.

[NurseJackie]

118. Aaaaand...

[Iliyah]

64. No one is scared of HRC nor any other Democrat, that's not how we roll.

[Historic NY]

55. Imagine it comes from people that disguise themselves as Democrats,

but their true politics betray them.

[UniteFightBack]

131. +1000

[Cuthbert Allgood]

60. Maybe she thinks Clinton is being divisive recently.

Kind of seems like that to me, too.

[DURHAM D]

92. Where did she say she would not vote for him.

Can't find it. iows - not what she said

[betsuni]

98. She never said anything about voting.

As everybody knows.

[Cha]

107. prove it

[MrsCoffee]

116. That is a big fat lie.

Why keep repeating it?

[betsuni]

117. ...

[Retrograde]

66. And that's why we can't have nice things

Despicable as they are in many ways, Republicans do know how to tow the party line when it's necessary: that's how they managed to get and keep control. They unite behind so-called leaders because they're playing a long game to control the country. We're not good at this, as we've shown time and again.

Clinton - whatever you think of her - is not the issue. Uniting behind a candidate who can defeat Trump in November is. All this infighting is doing is creating a wedge the GOP can use AGAIN to return that clown to the White House.

[ismnotwasm]

87. I am so fucking pissed

Pramilla Jayapal is my representative. Fuck this shit.

[sheshe2]

89. disgusting. nt

[Vogon_Glory]

90. A mistake

Antics like this can reaffirm moderate Democrats’ impression that not only are Bernie-philes are still as flakey and unreliable as they were in 2016, but that they despise the moderates they’d need to win the general election this fall.

If Tlaib wanted to do something to motivate pro-Biden Democrats to come out and vote against Bernie, she could hardly do worse to Don a MAGA cap.

[Desarlis]

96. Not helpful in the general

Sanders is going to need moderates and women.
Alternating a big chunk of them isn't gonna help defeat Trump.

[Buzz cook]

97. Hillary Clinton Won't Commit to Endorsing Sanders If He Wins Nomination

http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/01/hillary-clinton-bernie-sanders-attack-hollywood-reporter-fact-check.html

Clinton should be booed for this.

People here seem to have short term emory problems. Stuff like this doesn't happen in a vacuum.

Clinton pushed, Tlaib pushed back.

[RandySF]

101. And this was published the day after the NYMag article.

[Buzz cook]

143. "Sanders hasn't accomplished anything"

"No one likes to work with him".

These are silly and divisive things to say.

A late unity pledge doesn't change that.

[fleabiscuit]

104. They are short circuiting their political carriers. There will be challengers. nt

[C Moon]

109. WTF?! Shouldn't we be focused on the assholes in the senate and the bigger assholes in our WH?

Booing Clinton—who is NOT RUNNING FOR OFFICE! Hello!!!!!

Focus, folks. Focus on 2020.
Knock off the bullshit Clinton hate.

[Lexblues]

111. I'm sure the black voters in her district of Detroit don't approve

of her booing Hillary. She needs to be reminded who she works for. Her, AOC, and Omar can go kick rocks. I'm sick of all them.

119. Misogyny is deeply rooted in this campaign.

I’ve had friends (all women) that have been doxxed, swatted and had their places of work called by Bernie’s Incel Army. And Bernie says not a word.

Was rooting for Rashida here in Michigan, so this is extra disappointing.

– Big tent for transphobic misogynists.
– No tent and no decency for a trailblazing, coalition-building woman in politics who has defended the squad against attacks.

Progressive, where? Just gross.

[MyNameGoesHere]

121. She seems nice.

[UniteFightBack]

122. The haters will 'shut up on Monday when we win'. I didn't know Clinton was running! Oh she thinks

she so cute and funny. How bouts a big FUCK YOU LADY.

[UniteFightBack]

123. Who are these 'haters'? DEMOCRATS? This is not the way you make friends. I'm sick of the fringes..

THAT is what is making me more of a 'centrist'. THESE FUCKING FRINGES.

133. Rep. Tlaib is brave indeed!

I’m sure she knew a storm of outrage was gonna head her way in response and she obviously doesn’t care. I can respect that.

140. Tlaib expresses regret for booing Hillary Clinton at Sanders event, says supporters 'deserve better'

Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., on Saturday expressed regret for booing former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s name at a Bernie Sanders campaign event in Iowa, saying that his supporters “deserve better.”

“In this instance, I allowed my disappointment with Secretary Clinton's latest comments about Senator Sanders and his supporters get the best of me. You all, my sisters-in-service on stage, and our movement deserve better,” she said in a statement.

The moderator at the event in Clive, Iowa on Friday had mentioned remarks by Clinton, in which she had said that “nobody likes” Sen. Sanders, I-Vt.. Clinton beat Sanders in the 2016 Democratic primary before going on to lose to then-candidate Donald Trump in the general election.

When members of the audience booed, moderator Dionna Langford hushed them: “We’re not gonna boo, we’re classy here.”

But Tlaib, who was seated alongside fellow Reps. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., objected and backed the booing crowd.

Last year Hillary defended Tlaib and others when they were attacked by Donald Trump.
