  1. Love your show but, you people talk like these politicians work for us….those days are over…..the oligarchs are in charge of this nation and that's why we're headed towards Fascism. The people have allowed themselves to be manipulated and now there's nothing they can do. Voting in America is rigged! Fix that and take money out of politics, that's the only way we can get back on track… Otherwise, democracy will be a thing of the past.

  2. Stop bashing democrats, their platform is Trump is bad. we don't like trump. we only want trump to be defeated. It is simple so that we can ALL understand it dummies. The whole thing is like professional wrestling, in the end trump will prevail because donald trump is producing this media epic. if democrat party stands for anything they are afraid they will offend a certain section of the public, so we must unite behind sleepy joe, it is the ONLY way to get rid of the evil donald. Also we are going to loose the Senate, due to the purity tests.

  3. Bernie Sanders pick Tulsi has his foreign adviser, but changing the corrupt system is Bernie's baby, I love Tulsi,but she's not going to be president, I actually can't believe what Abby Martin said, lucky for us, Sanders and Tulsi are good friends

  4. It's not a failure, today's Dems are functioning precisely as intended. As the wing of the white corporate establishment that absolves the other wing. Since 1992.

  5. The problem is, and will forever continue to be, that this “base” of Democratic voters, is NOT represented by the Democratic party. The Democratic platform DOES NOT MATCH what this group wants and believes. These “young upstarts” are not supported by the Democratic party, But these people are brainwashed into believing that there is no alternative for them except to be Republicans. They are sold a narative by these talking heads, these opinion makers, these pundit “experts” that Democrats are THE “progressive” party when they are not and never will never be a progressive party. The Democratic party is a right-wing party, and has been since the inchoation of Third-way following McGovern’s 1972 loss to Nixon. They are sold a narrative that Greens are “fringe” by these opinion-makers, and these voters are too obedient to even look for themselves to see that not only is the Green party not “fringe,” but that its platform actually matches what this “base” wants and believes, thus the borrowing of The Green New Deal. Hint: these new “young upstart Democrats” did not come up with that. No, Greens did. It is not up to these talking head pundits to decide that Greens can’t win, it’s up to the voters. It is only a self-fulfilling-prophecy of futility if you cannot defy this need to be obedient followers of what authoritative people on TV tell you.

    There are a lot more Greens (that don’t know that they are Greens) than there appears to be.

    Please tell me that you are not incorrigible followers/blind sheep.

  6. It is the whole western empire and imperailism which needs to be addressed and explained to the people and why it is not working for the overwhelming majority, STOP THIS DEMOCRAT AND REPUBLICAN HOGWASH

  7. Well said, Abby! Tepid is not enough!
    If the democrats are serious let's see them first get rid of the super delegates.

  8. Here's the democratic platform…vote for us and we'll give u free stuff and by free we mean raising taxes on the half of the country that actually pays taxes.
