We've got a lot to cover. We're starting with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. He appeared yesterday on Neil Cavuto's FOX "NEWS" talk show.
Junior declared, "The Iraq War? You know, we left Iraq worse off than when we found it. We were lied to about that war. We're now going to war in Ukraine -- a war, a war that could be catastrophic for the globe."
Wow, the bravery. Wow, the inability to master the facts.
Or is Junior so stupid that he doesn't know US troops remain on the ground in Iraq?
What an idiot.
And, no, we're not "now going to war with Ukraine." The proxy war has been going on for some time.
Later, while babbling -- that is the only term -- about 9/11, he said, "My memory of that, Neil -- and you can go back and check the record [. . . ], and I could be wrong about that [. . .] and I could be wrong about my history." You think?
Not could, you are wrong when you say that we are "now going to war with Ukraine" and when you say that the US left Iraq.
He speaks of an "aggressive posture" on the part of the US today with "800 bases abroad" and insists, "When I was a kid, everybody around the world loved America for its freedoms."
When was he a "kid"? I'm going to assume we'll leave out the struggles with drug addiction. But let's say 21, he stopped being a kid? I'd love to do 18 but the press usually doesn't hold you accountable -- look at Bully Boy Bush's 'youthful' issues -- when you turn 18. So let's go to 21. That would be 1975.
Before 1975, "everybody around the world loved America for its freedoms"? Really? The people in Vietnam loved America for its freedoms? Despite the war on Vietnam? The people in Cuba loved America for its freedoms? Despite the Bay of Pigs? The people in Chile loved America for its freedoms? Despite the CIA overthrow and execution of the democratically elected Salvador Allende on September 11, 1973?
We could do this all day.
He is a stupid moron. Most of Europe was anti-American following the Revolutionary War (and most of Europe did not see the French Revolution as a great thing because Europe was not a proponents of democracy). America was not seen as a great thing among many European scholars in the 1800s either.
You don't know your history, Junior. You just know that when all you were concerned with was playing with your toys and your penis, life seemed so much simpler.
Your stupidity at this late date is rather sad and rather telling.
We've got to look at e-mails. Two people have e-mailed the public account accusing me of hypocrisy -- they've read "
Media: Hypocrisy, thy name is THE VANGUARD" and they both feel that I am also being a hypocrite -- like THE VANGUARD -- because I've not weighed in on the Danny Masterson rape and "more significantly," writes one, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis' remarks.
First, how does that make me like THE VANGUARD? If I were defending Ashton and Mila -- it would not happen -- maybe I would be like THE VANGUARD. But I just didn't say anything about it here Friday and Monday.
Christina Ricci did and that's a friend and I stand by what she said about the issue. I do not like Bijou and I think she's trash -- that's rapist Danny Masterson's wife. I thought she was trash from a young age. Couldn't help it though, look at who her parents were.
Late to the party? Danny Masterson raped women and got convicted of drugging and raping two. Last week was his sentencing.
Ashton and Mila wrote letters to the judge insisting he was a good guy and his sentence for his crimes shouldn't be harsh, he told them not to take drugs and he's a good father.
Billy Baldwin apparently wrote a letter. If I was waiting for anything, it was probably to read that letter. That he wrote it doesn't surprise me, he's Danny's brother-in-law. Chynna Phillips and Bijoua are half-sisters -- Mackenzie Phillips is their other half-sister. Of the three, Chynna's been the most sane in her own life and that goes to what happens when you have even one solid parent (Michelle Phillips).
I keep waiting to hear that Chynna wrote a letter. If she did and it emerges, that doesn't surprise me. She's always been there for her two half-sisters. Bijou has made her adulthood a nightmare (her childhood was an embarrassment but that's on her parents) and Mackenzie, of course, aborted a pregnancy in which her father might have been the father. I'm not condemning Mackenzie, she had a very rough childhood and she was a victim (and, yes, I do consider her a victim even during the time she says she was 'willingly' sleeping with her own father). When Mackenzie came out with that story, I backed her and defended her. My point in bringing all this up is to make clear that I believe no one should have written a letter but if it turns out Chynna did, then she did and I'm not going to have any comment on it because she's been the glue holding that fractured family (I'm referring to the John Phillips side of the family) together for years now, she's had to repeatedly be the adult in the room for both of her half-sisters.
Ashton and Mila?
Trash. I've called out Mila repeatedly here. The idea that I'm hesitant to call that fake ass out?
When Demi (a friend of many years) had her book coming out, Mila began showing her true ugly self in public with a few remarks. Those remarks were probably going to get worse. Which is why I called Ashton and told him to curb his bitch because I'm not Demi. Demi tried to be as kind as possible and put as much behind her as possible.
I'm not that sweet person.
I made it very clear -- and I wrote about that here too when it happened -- that if Mila didn't cease and desist, I'd burn Ashton and Mila's playhouse down. And I could still do that because they are nothing but liars. Their entire relationship is a lie. Their actions offscreen? A huge lie.
Demi gave into Ashton on many things. He's a control freak who manipulates women. "Oh, you could drink if you want to, you're just using 'addiction' as a crutch."
That we're now shocked by Ashton goes to how pathetic celebrity is. Demi told that tale in her book, where were you? It's one of the few that made it into the book. Her 80s addictions were well known. And Joel Schumacher made it very clear that she go rehab or she wasn't going to be in ST. ELMO'S FIRE. She went to rehab, she got the treatment she needed and she became this huge support system for many others (such as Ally Sheedy). For Ashton to undermine her and to destroy her sobriety?
Where were you, concerned America?
He's garbage. And the reason they broke up makes even more garbage. If you think he pressured her to drink -- he did. That's nothing compared to the pressure he was putting on her to do other things. And she had the strength to walk away. And she had the grace to leave it out of her book.
So your notion that because nothing went up here about those two disgusting people since Friday afternoon when the news broke about their letters because I was/would try to cover for them?
No, you're just outright wrong.
In terms of their video?
They're lying garbage. And don't say that you respect victims -- as they lie that they do -- and then lie that you weren't trying to influence the outcome.
Sentencing is part of the outcome. Quit your lying. Sentencing is part of the outcome. You disrespected the women who were raped. You tried to work over a sentencing after a jury handed down guilty verdicts. You were clearly disrespecting the women and disrespecting the rule of law.
Everything they wrote was a lie. Everything that they said was a lie.
And to bring up drugs, to lie that Danny kept them off drugs? When Danny drugged the women he raped?
That's especially offensive.
Rebecca is covering this at her site.
If you missed it, yesterday on THE VANGUARD, they were floating that Peter Daou might have been fired by Marianne Williamson.
No one has ever made that claim before now.
Peter quit. And I know why he quit and I knew in real time and you can go back to the archives and read about it. I also know Marianne and have for years. And Ava and I told you -- before POLITICO wrote its first story on what a nightmare she was to her staff -- how bad she was. We told you. Then the first POLITICO story comes out about it and THE VANGUARD and others -- including Krystal Ball -- want to trash the report and insist it's not true. They attacked the second report as well although less strenuously. Marianne is a nightmare to work for.
Peter quit for that reason.
He had no plans to make a statement and when Marianne worried how it was looking, he came out with the claim that he quit due to his family's health.
Now he's gone to work for Cornel West's campaign.
What happened should be obvious.
But because THE VANGUARD boys worship Marianne, they wanted to muddy the waters last night.
They also never understand a damn thing.
They are like Junior so much.
He didn't notice anti-American sentiment prior to his becoming an adult so he insists it never happened.
They attacked Peter in their segment without understanding a damn thing and only knowing what he did in 2016 -- when they were supporting the freak show that is Jill Stein.
Peter isn't someone we highlighted after 2008 here.
We also didn't make a point to call him out after 2008.
For the same reason that I'm not going to call out Rickie Lee Jones or Meredith Brooks or any number of people.
You don't like what Peter wrote in 2016?
Well why did he write it?
Or is that too much work for you to do?
Rickie Lee gets a pass from me. She supported Hillary Clinton in 2008. And she saw the media work to destroy Hillary. Peter supported Hillary in 2008.
You're crazy and insane if you don't think what the media did to Hillary was going to impact her supporters.
2008 saw the media attack her repeatedly with sexism. When Katie Couric dared to note the sexism, Keith Olbermann attacked Katie as the worst person of the week.
They all engaged in sexism -- Keith, Bill Moyers, go down the list. And Howard Dean played dumb as late as June 2008.
Just because you didn't live through it, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Hillary was mocked and made fun and lied about. At its worst, Marjorie Cohn and Keith Olbermann and others were accusing Hillary of calling for Barack Obama to be assassinated -- Keith went on air with that claim.
It was stupid for Hillary to run in 2016 for many reasons -- but the main ones were the media had painted her as a racist and the media had painted her as someone so desperate that she'd call for Barack to be assassinated.
This was what the media was telling America eight years before her 2016 run.
That's a lot to overcome with the public and, no, she did not have the charm skills to pull that off.
But they were very upset, her supporters, by the media's inability to play fair (something Donald Trump supporters can probably relate to). So I never made a point to call out Rickie Lee or anyone else who had to endure that crap in 2008.
That's not even a full history but it's more knowledge than THE VANGUARD boys can produce because they're idiots who never do the work required.
James H. Cone.
That's a name that the idiots need to learn. They're crediting Cornel West with inventing every wheel in history. James H. Cone, idiots, look him up. W.E.B. Du Bois, learn the name.
The world did not start in 2016 just because that's when THE VANGUARD boys began paying attention.
And Jimmy Dore is many bad things but that doesn't excuse Zac, on THE VANGUARD last week, using "snatch" as a smear -- "snatch" not as in swipe but as in the female anatomy.
That's misogyny. And Zac did and Gavin laughed at it. And then they moved on pretended like it hadn't happened.
Don't compare to those two morons.
They can't get their facts right, they don't know history, their political 'arguments' are laughable and they're just as likely to resort to sexism or to dismiss concerns about trans people as Jimmy Dore is.
THE VANGUARD had another questionable segment last week. It was about how Briahna Joy Gray had invited Sabby Sabs on to BAD FAITH and Sabby had lied.
Well what else would Sabby do?
Hey, Sabby, tell us about your parents? You don't want to go there, do
you?
So Sabby was on with Bri-Bri and Bri-Bri lied. And THE VANGUARD called her out and congratulated themselves for doing so.
But the cowardly boys of THE VANGUARD lied for Bri-Bri
Months
ago, a ridiculous exchange took place on REVOLUTIONARY BLACK OUT.
Sabby and the fat one had brought on Marianne Williamson and then,
during the interview, the RBO homophobe and the one who rages out of
control to the point that he's
on the verge of tears joined the broadcast. Marianne was not being
allowed to speak. She was asked questions and when she tried to answer
them, she was cut off.
It was an awful interview.
And
Zac and Gavin, last week, called Sabby Sabs out as she tossed aside
facts and flat out lied over and over about what had happened. Zac and Gavin played segments of the
interview that had not been played on BAD FAITH including Sabby
herself expressing her anger and frustration over the way Marianne was ambushed.
Last
week, on BAD FAITH, Sabby lied and said that things went bad because
Marianne had accused one of the RBN males of "mansplaining."
Zac
and Gavin played the clip of that and showed that Marianne was being
cut off by the man when she tried to answer his question, she was being
insulted by him and much more.
Now go check in real
time, we didn't make this RBN interview the big issue of the year, the month or even the
week. Why? Because politicians don't need to be fawned over. See,
we're consistent.
The boys of THE VANGUARD? If they didn't have hypocrisy, what would those boys have besides maybe crotch rot?
They went to town on Sabby. And she deserved it. She lied. She flat out lied.
But
the hypocrites of THE VANGUARD didn't go to town on Bri-Bri. They
didn't even try to hold her accountable. This wasn't Sabby's program,
it was Bri's. Sabby was on Bri's BAD FAITH.
The
hypocrites know damn well that Sabby didn't select clips for Bri's
show. Bri and her staff selected the clips they wanted to play. Bri
was complicit in the lying. She took part in it before it ever aired as
she determined what clips would air on her show and what clips
wouldn't.
Bri lied. But THE VANGUARD gave her a pass
-- that's something they do repeatedly for her and it's why they look
like such hypocrites.
The airing of that segment on THE VANGUARD -- and the pass that they gave Bri -- should have led to reflection on Zac and Gavin's part but clearly they are not capable of self-reflection and that is one thing that makes them so dangerous. Read the quote we provide of Zac at the end of our piece and you'll grasp the other reason that they're becoming so dangerous. That's not what media does.
