[15:00] Dennis Kucinich: “The two parties are two aspects of the War Party. … We have a crumbling infrastrucure in America and we’re blowing up bridges in other countries.”
Jimmy Dore: “ … the biggest voting block is those who don’t vote, and that’s who Tulsi is reaching. And that’s who wants to win needs to reach. … We don’t have any money to ...”
[16:53] Dennis Kucinich:“When they give him all this money and them impeach him, it borders on lunacy. … 800 bases in 71 different countries… … I came to the realization that it was all a racket… a way to suck money out of the American people. To essentially steal from them. Wave the flag. And then say they’re doing it for America. Nah. Not a chance.
Look at the claque of people advising the murder of General Solemani. They can surface and whisper in the ear of a President who doesn’t have any experience in politics except for his term and doesn’t really understand international relations. He understands business. …
[20:17] Jimmy Dore: “They’re impeaching him because he put a pause in the flow of bombs in more conflicts. That’s what they’re upset about, that there was a temporary pause in more armaments going for more war as if the President doesn’t get to decide our foreign policy in the first place. He’s the guy.
[21:05] “Do you agree that … The Democratic party did three years of Russia-gate and now impeachment because they don’t have anything to offer those 100 million people who didn’t get off the couch and vote? Because if they had something to offer them, they would be doing that instead of doing this? … at the same time they’re impeaching him, they just passed Trump’s entire legislative agenda … they gave him money for a Space Force. …
[21:57] Dennis Kucinich: “They didn’t want to blame their candidate who may have raised and spent 2 billion dollars. They had to blame something else. So, right away, Russia. They started this drumbeat of Russia-gate. … that has yet to be proven and yet it is received wisdom, an article of faith. To me it’s nuts. … and then you go to the next diversion … 35 articles of impeachment [by DK] sent to committee. And yet these two puts a whole new threshold of impeachment that someone can go after a president for many more things. And it’s a re-interpretation of High Crimes and Misdemeanors requirement. It lowers the bar for impeachment … it sets the stage for a Republican turn-about against Joe Biden. This thing isn’t going to be over.
…
[25:32] Jimmy Dore: “… What did Barack Obama do that made those people vote for Donald Trump? … After eight years of him, people wouldn’t come out to vote for his hand-picked successor. …
Dennis Kucinich: “
Jimmy Dore. “She’s the one saying our foreign policy is our domestic policy. …
[30:45] Dennis Kucinich: “ … go back to the election of 1932 … you’ll need a progressive House and progressive Senate to .. the Democratic party needs to reclaim it’s historic mission … we have to stop the interventionism … make connection between intervention and domestic issue …
Jimmy Dore. “… and that person is secretly pro-war
[34: 05] D. K. “Does she have the capacity and the courage to take us in a new direction and only use those troops that we love and revere when we really need to defend this country, Tulsi’s the person that I think is the one for the primary and then we’ll see what happens. …
