On this week’s episode of On Contact, Chris Hedges discusses what to expect under a Donald Trump-led United States with Michael Smith, attorney and co-editor of “Imagine: Living in a Socialist U.S.A”. RT Correspondent Anya Parampil tracks who voted for Trump in the 2016 election.
Rachel Maddow couldn’t understand why the months of pro-Clinton propaganda failed to get her candidate into the White House. Rather than realizing that Americans just simply don’t like the Clintons, she decided to blame democracy itself and shamed third-party voters, implying they’re culpable for Trump’s victory. Shameful.
MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow said that third party voters not only “don’t care who becomes president,” but that they cost Hillary Clinton the White House. But the numbers simply don’t add up, and Maddow is angry at the wrong group of people.
Joint Statement from California Legislative Leaders on Result of Presidential Election
SACRAMENTO – California Senate President pro Tempore Kevin de León (D-Los Angeles) and California Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon (D-Paramount) released the following statement on the results of the President election:
Today, we woke up feeling like strangers in a foreign land, because yesterday Americans expressed their views on a pluralistic and democratic society that are clearly inconsistent with the values of the people of California.
We have never been more proud to be Californians.
By a margin in the millions, Californians overwhelmingly rejected politics fueled by resentment, bigotry, and misogyny.
