I think this is the first time I ever watched Rick Sanchez. I plan to do more and just subscribed to his channel. I post this particular piece to see the ever-fading to oblivion "Russiagate" horse feathers, and at the same time show clearly how Tulsi Gabbard is yet another "Putin Puppet." Don't believe it? Here's PROOF, as offered by the MSM these days.

Note: there's more to the show that I also found well worth watching.

This is laughable! Because RT is siding with what Tulsi has done by making people aware of Kamala's horrendous record the likes of MSNBC who I might add fired Phil Donahue and Jessie Ventura for speaking out against going to war with Iraq (they would up paying Ventura $10 Million to keep him quiet on the issue), and firing Ed Schultz for backing Bernie Sanders in 2016. Maybe this is why they are backing Kamala Harris as neither has any integrity.

This is not laughable:

CodePink report on Candidates regarding war:

"But Gabbard's actual voting record on war and peace issues, especially on military spending, is not nearly as dovish as Sanders'. She voted for 19 of 29 military spending bills in the past 6 years, and she has only a 51% Peace Action voting record. Many of the votes that Peace Action counted against her were votes to fully fund controversial new weapons systems, including nuclear-tipped cruise missiles (in 2014, 2015 and 2016); an 11th US aircraft-carrier (in 2013 and 2015); and various parts of Obama's anti-ballistic missile program, which fueled the New Cold War and arms race she now decries. Gabbard voted at least twice (in 2015 and 2016) not to repeal the much-abused 2001 Authorization for the Use of Military Force, and she voted three times not to limit the use of Pentagon slush funds. In 2016, she voted against an amendment to cut the military budget by just 1%. Gabbard received $8,192 in "defense" industry contributions for her 2018 reelection campaign. Gabbard still believes in a militarized approach to counterterrorism, despite studies showing that this feeds a self-perpetuating cycle of violence on both sides. She is still in the military herself and embraces what she calls a "military mindset." She ended her CNN Town Hall by saying that being Commander-in-Chief is the most important part of being president. As with Sanders, we have to ask, "Which Tulsi would we see in the White House?" Would it be the Major with the military mindset, who cannot bring herself to deprive her military colleagues of new weapons systems or even a 1% cut from the trillions of dollars in military spending she has voted for? Or would it be the veteran who has seen the horrors of war and is determined to bring the troops home and never again send them off to kill and be killed in endless regime change wars?"

Where are these clowns, Gabbard included, in calling for an end to sanctions on the people of Iran (countless deaths due to flooding and more due to lack of basic human needs) and Venezuela where the deaths are into the thousands as a direct result of US sanctions?

Sure there's a resolution to end military support for Saudi Arabia (curious why only the Saudis get called out and not the Israelis by this crew of candidates).

The media is all about ratings and maintaining the war party and global capitalism. If they can find a hook in these candidates to use to push products and increase eye-balls than they'll go after it. Trump was a perfect means of getting ratings up, up, up.

If Harris can jack up by knocking down Biden, and Gabbard in turn knocking down Harris, and Gabbard can take on the role of a new "Trump" (Putin/Assad puppet) than maybe that's the new hook. It may not work, but that's their game.

Meanwhile bombs away....

(My impression of Gabbard's view of Medicare for All is that it's a multi-tiered system (ala crystal lady Williamson) allowing for private (choice) system - that's NOT Medicare for All.) She's running for Commander-In-Chief. That's her schtick. Of course none of these charades matter. We've seen this movie before.

Daniel, I've watched Sanchez on RT for some time. He used to be with MSNBC and I think CNN, and was fired for being uncooperative in their agenda. He does as he says, he covers stories that are ignored by the MSM, and I haven't seen him report anything that turned out to be false.

I'm not even sure I want to follow any of this anymore. All of the alleged Putin puppeteering and Russia scaremongering is not only a colossal waste of time, but it's sunken so low as to not even be interesting or entertaining. It's like knowing your best friend has brain cancer and watching him die. How much fun is that folks? From here in expat land (as many of you know, I live in Japan), America has gone so far off the rails, GPS can't even place it on the sanity map anymore. To think that any rational, even modestly coherent person is influenced by any of this, is frightening and cosmically depressing. To think that people's votes will be affected by any of this, makes any hope for there ever again being a functioning democracy in the U.S. the whoopie cushion of daydreamers and delusional schizophrenics. Which begs the question: Except for a handful -- who for good reason have barricaded themselves inside their fallout shelters and spend their spare time here at OEN trying to make sense of any of this -- are there any rational, even modestly coherent people in America these days?

John, buddy, I also have reached the spot where I'm wondering if I may not be rational or even modestly coherent.

That is precisely how the system is designed to be, more so with each passing day. Trust your instincts, is my humble opinion.

As far as some of the comments above, I'd say we have finally gotten to the actual interesting part of "Russiagate"--that made zero sense from the start, and that I have spent almost no time heeding myself--insofar as exposing for the American public and the world at large, the vast and sorry crowd that was behind it. As in possibly exposing the truth, as so many such as Julian Assange and others have put their lives on the line to do.
