Elizabeth Warren Joins the Biden Bandwagon, Betrays Supporters
Judge them by their actions, never their rhetoric, a rule of thumb in evaluating others, notably politicians. They all lie with the rarest of rare exceptions.
Warren’s sellout to Dem party bosses followed Tulsi Gabbard and Bernie Sanders going the same way — abdicating to wealth and power interests over honor and principles, showing their lofty rhetoric was meaningless, their trustworthiness nil.
Dems falling all over themselves for Biden show they back his pro-war, pro-business, and anti-progressive agenda. The package goes with the man. You can’t have one without the other.
Biden is a Trump clone warmonger/corporatist/racist with a party label and style difference.
As things now stand, US voters in November with get to choose between death by firing squad or hanging — meaning no choice at all, how it always is for high executive or congressional offices when so-called elections are held.
They’re more exercises in mass deception than anything else, always turning out the same way.
In her betrayal message, Warren said the following:
“In this moment of crisis, it’s more important than ever that the next president restores Americans’ faith in good, effective government—and I’ve seen Joe Biden help our nation rebuild (sic).”
“Today, I’m proud to endorse @JoeBiden as president of the United States.”
“Joe Biden has spent nearly his entire life in public service (sic).”
“He knows that a government run with integrity, competence and heart will save lives and save livelihoods (sic).”
“And we can’t afford to let Donald Trump continue to endanger the lives and livelihoods of every American.”
Biden’s near-half century of public life reflects virtually everything disturbing about dirty politics as usual in Washington.
He never met a US war of aggression against an invented enemy he didn’t wholeheartedly endorse.
Nor a banker’s grand theft through fraud, grand theft, market manipulation, pumping and dumping, front-running and scamming investors he didn’t turn a blind eye to, Wall Street giants operating like shadowy Mafia dons, an interconnected crime family feigning respectability.
Nor has Biden been shy about supporting an enhanced US military, industrial, security, media complex and prison industrial complex while backing neoliberal war on social justice.
He’s hostile to all sovereign independent nations the US doesn’t control, his actions showing contempt for ordinary people everywhere.
His near half-century as US senator and vice president was all about serving wealth and powerful interests at the expense of public rights and welfare.
Warren is an Obama clone with a gender difference, an establishment figure throughout her public life.
Militantly hostile to nonbelligerent Russia, China, Iran, Venezuela, North Korea, and other sovereign states on the US target list for regime change, she falsely considers them a threat to US national security.
They’re at peace with other nations, at war with none, polar opposite how the US, NATO and Israel operate — rogue states threatening everyone.
She backs illegally imposed US sanctions on targeted nations and individuals that’s the prerogative of Security Council members exclusively, never one state against others for any reasons.
Dismissive of Palestinian rights, she one-sidedly backs Israel, ignoring its history of high crimes.
In her own words, “capitalist to the bone” defines her, meaning corporate predation and exploitation for maximum unrestrained profit-making and market power.
Was endorsing Biden a sale pitch to join his ticket as running mate?
Do Sanders and Gabbard have something similar in mind — perhaps a cabinet post if not his number two?
There’s nary a dime’s worth of difference between Biden and Trump.
In November like most often earlier, options for US voters are none at all — dirty business as usual alone on the ballot for the nation’s highest office and key congressional posts.
