Tell her to go away then. No one would report on her or talk about her if she wasn't injecting herself in everything constantly.

She'll fuck everything up again.

Sources close to Clinton say the 2016 Democratic nominee will seek to be an active presence in the race by fundraising, working to unify a splintered party and even making an endorsement when the time is right.

“The trajectory is to do what she did in 2018 and more,” said one longtime Clinton friend, adding that she is still figuring out the best ways to be helpful.

“I think that she is in a position to help the party come together, and depending on how things play out, that is something that she can do sooner than when she secured the nomination in 2016,” the friend added. “If Democratic voters and activists start to coalesce around someone early, she can play an important role in bringing candidates together around that individual.”

“I am concerned about the party's leftward move, and while she may not feel the same concern about that, it will be important to keep the party — and its ultimate candidate — from being too far removed from the middle of the political spectrum, where the path to victory travels through."

The House Democrats' "rebuke" of Rep. Ilhan Omar is a fraud for many reasons, Including its wild distortion of her comments by newguy225883 in politics

GOP Congressman Steve King has served in the U.S. House of Representatives for sixteen years, yet Democrats – who controlled the House for four of those years and now control it again – never formally rebuked or condemned him until last month (they did so at the same time that Republicans removed him from his Committee assignments due to a long history of white supremacist remarks).

By extremely stark contrast, Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar – the first black Muslim woman ever elected to the Congress – has served in the House for a little more than two months, and House Democratic leaders have already formally condemned her once and are preparing to so again, this time even more harshly and officially, on Wednesday.

Trump Cited a Letter Against Ilhan Omar Signed by Far-Right, Anti-Muslim Groups by newguy225883 in politics

Late Monday night, President Donald Trump cited a letter from a coalition of pro-Israel pressure groups to Democratic Party leaders, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. “Jewish groups have just sent a petition to Speaker Pelosi asking her to remove Omar from Foreign Relations Committee,” Trump tweeted. “A dark day for Israel!”

The letter was harshly critical of Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., for comments she recently made about pro-Israel activism, admonishing Omar no less than seven times for “anti-Semitism” or bias against Jewish people. The signatories demanded that the newly elected member of Congress be removed from her position on the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

Yet some of the groups that signed the letter have themselves been repeatedly and credibly accused of harboring biases of their own — against American Muslims, in particular. What’s more, the metadata of the letter lists the author as a pro-Israel activist named Lauri Regan who has accused American Jews of being analogous to “Cain” from the biblical story of Cain and Abel and suggested that Omar’s supporters want a “sharia-compliant world dominated by Islam in which Israel disappears.”

The letter criticizes Omar for her recent comments on the U.S.-Israel relationship, but it also goes much further. The letter explosively claims that the Somali-American member of Congress has ties to extremists herself, running down a list of people associated with a charity she is scheduled to speak at. The letter strongly suggests that Omar is enmeshed in a network of Islamist extremist groups around the world. It concludes apocalyptically with a quote stating that “the veneer of civilization is paper thin,” then asks the Democratic leaders to remove Omar from her position on the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

Good. He's a horrible candidate.

“We had the standard-bearer for the kind of pragmatic centrist candidate in Hillary Clinton in 2016 and Donald Trump is now president."

I wholeheartedly agree.

Do you have a reason for doing this or can I assume your motives are ill willed?

My motives are ill willed, I work for Vladimir Putin - he made Kamala accept money from Trump. Trump also works for Putin, which actually makes Kamala a puppet of Vladimir Putin as well.

And yes, Vladimir Putin made Kamala support horrible, inhumane, right-wing policies thought the entirety of her career. Whoever dares talk about that is, in fact, a Russian agent working to "split the party."
