Burn Pits 360 Executive Director and co-Founder Rosie Torres and Samantha Turner, a disabled army veteran and graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, join Andrea Mitchell to urge the passing of a bill to help veterans who were exposed to toxins and burn pits, after 25 Senate Republicans decided to switch their votes and block the measure. Theyre playing partisan politics. It's disgusting. Its criminal. These men and women fought for their freedom, and they're sick and they're dying, says Torres. We're gonna be protesting. We're gonna be advocating for ourselves and those who serve with us until the bills passed, says Turner.Aug. 1, 2022

Republicans blocking burn pit bill are playing partisan politics with the lives of veterans - MSNBC

Appearing on MSNBCs Morning Joe, the Rev Al Sharpton last week suggested that the left was as much to blame as Christian nationalists for the overturning of Roe v. Wade. Why? Because Hillary Clinton lost the electoral college vote in 2016.

Vote Blue No Matter Who Democrats (also known as Blue MAGAs) love to blame their partys shortcomings and monumental incompetence on the left. The left is their boogeyman. They despise the left more than they hate the far right.

Bernie Sanders, Ralph Nader and (inexplicably) the actress Susan Sarandon are Blue MAGAss favorite targets. Nader, because they blame his third party presidential run for Al Gores loss in 2000, just as Bernie gets blamed for Hillarys inconceivable loss to Trump in 2016.

They hate Sarandon becausewell, because Blue MAGAs are completely irrational beings.Naturally the recent US Supreme Courts decision overturning Roe v. Wade is the lefts fault too. One of my favorite tweets from the week came from a Blue MAGA who goes by the handle media witch:

Did you vote for Bernie Sanders, you privileged little cosplay socialists? Then we can blame YOU for this horrifying turn of events

I have tried to wrap my mind around why Blue MAGAs hate the left so much and I have come to the conclusion that it is because the left is not shy about pointing out the Democratic partys blatant hypocrisy, abandoned campaign promises, and abject policy failures.

Blue MAGAs maintain that the left should be good team players, by which they mean they should not put forth leftist candidates or vote third party, and they must never, ever criticize Democrats.

When the left does point out the Democratic Partys shortcomings, Blue MAGAs consider this to be the worst kind of betrayal. A crime far more heinous than anything conservative Republicans can do.

Meanwhile Blue MAGAs have continued to heedlessly pull the lever for the Democrats no matter how far right the party has drifted, no matter how pro-Wall Street the party has become. At the same time they have doubled down in their efforts to obstruct leftist or third party challengers, even as Democratic policies have proven disastrous for the working class.

It is an article of faith with Blue MAGAs that the left cannot possibly win elections, therefore they had no problem with the Democratic National Committee rigging the 2016 and 2020 primaries against the wildly popular Bernie Sanders (a February 2020 poll gave Bernie a 71 percent favorable rating from Democratic voters) and forcing all of the other Good Democrats (Warren, Buttigieg, Klobachar) to suspend their presidential campaigns in order to create a united front against the Democratic Socialist frontrunner.

Indeed, they will stop at nothing in order to prevent any and all leftist influence on the Democratic Party. They may not fight for the working class, but they will fight like hell to maintain a party that Wall Street and the Silicon Valley elites can embrace. At the end of the day, they would much prefer the party drift to the right than to the left which is why it is foolish for the left to continue to support Lesser of Two Evil Democratic candidates like Clinton and Biden.

Blue MAGAs have no choice but to trumpet the Big Lie that Bernie (or Nader, Sarandon, Jill Stein, fill in the blank) is to blame for their electoral losses, their horrible decisions, their pathetic campaigns, their poverty of ideas, their inability to pass their agenda. Like their Red MAGA counterparts, Blue MAGAs whole house of cards would come crashing down if they ceased believing in the Big Lie. Like Trump and his supporters they simply cannot afford to tell the truth. It would be foolish to expect them to do otherwise.

Excerpted: Blue MAGAs Big Lie.

As hope for WNBA player Brittney Griners release from a Russian prison diminishes, her wife, Cherelle Griner, has come forward to share that her spouse is suffering despite putting up a brave front.

During an interview with Al Sharpton on his satellite radio show Keepin It Real on Wednesday (June 29), the recent law school graduate opened up about Griners bravery in light of being detained in the communist nation without due process since mid-February.

Sharpton posted the eight-minute interview to Instagram where Cherelle revealed that she still hasnt heard her wifes voice since she was taken into custody by Russian authorities. However, Griner has written letters.

Cherelle Griner, the wife of Brittney Griner, appeared on Keepin It Real with Rev. Al Sharpton this afternoon to discuss the basketball centers ongoing detainment in Russia. She urged her fellow Americans to continue pushing the U.S. government to bring #BrittneyGriner back home as soon as possible. The two-time Olympic gold medalist was arrested at a Moscow airport in mid-February, as Russia was beginning its invasion of Ukraine. The U.S. State Department has since said she was wrongfully detained, with many arguing her arrest was political in nature. the caption read.

Cherelle believes that the Phoenix Mercury center is disguising her fear with false strength so as to not worry her partner.

Because I am her person, she is always going to write persuasively to make sure I don't break because she knows I have all these things going on. She's always trying to be my strong person. She's telling me she's okay.

Griners wife continued, She's like, 'I'm okay, babe. I'm hardened. I'm not me right now. When I come home, it's going to take me a minute to get back to myself, but I'm holding on. I won't break until I come home. I won't let them break me. I know they are trying to, but I'm going to do my best to just hold on until I can get home.'"

Cherelle also expounded that it was imperative that Griners case stays front and center with respect to media attention. She alluded to her wife, affectionately known as BG, being terrified and struggling.

"Every second that goes by, BG is struggling," Cherelle said. "She's struggling. She's there, terrified. She's there, alone ... Everything about this is just her biggest nightmare, on top of the fact that BG is in a situation where this isn't even a trial ... Nothing about this is justice."

Unfortunately, the Russian government has been reluctant to negotiate Griners release, and it seemingly continues to railroad the 31-year-old baller by constantly pushing out her trial date.

Bet.com reported that Griners latest upcoming trial date is July 1.

The center has been confined to a Russian prison for almost six months after being arrested on drug trafficking charges after Russian police found hashish oil via vape cartridges in her luggage.

WILMINGTON, Del.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, Citizens for Judicial Fairness and Reverend Al Sharpton applauded President Joe Bidens groundbreaking nomination of current Delaware Supreme Court Justice Tamika Montgomery-Reeves to the United States Third Circuit Court of Appeals. The nomination epitomizes Bidens ongoing commitment to equity and excellence on the nations highest courts, and draws attention back to Delaware, where Montgomery-Reeves departure will leave the states Supreme Court and Chancery Court with zero Black justices for the first time since 2015.

Said civil rights activist Reverend Al Sharpton, Justice Tamika Montgomery-Reeves will be an excellent addition to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. I continue to be impressed with President Bidens steadfast commitment to diversifying our nations highest courts and ensuring that they look like the people they represent. But Montgomery-Reeves departure from the Supreme Court means that unless she is replaced with a Black justice, Delawares two top courts the Supreme Court and Chancery Court will both be all-white. Thats unacceptable any time, but even more so in 2022 when Delawares own son Joe Biden has put diversity front and center in his judicial nominations.

Governor Carney has a chance once again to take a step in the right direction and ensure that there is at least one Black justice on Delawares top courts I urge him to do so and avoid subjecting Delawareans to courts that dont look like them and cant possibly deliver them the justice they deserve.
