 Peter Thiel is one of the most evil people in the country.  He has no business even living here if he doesn't even believe in our system of government or not believing women should have the right to vote.

Obituary:  Former NY representative Charles Rangel, 94,  has died.  He served in the US House for 46 years, starting in 1971.  He had been chair of the Ways and Means Committee.

Snip:


CCNY said Rangel's greatest legislative accomplishments included: championing the national Empowerment Zone program, Affordable Care Act, Low Income Housing Tax Credit, American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC), Work Opportunity Tax Credit, Caribbean Basin Initiative (CBI), Africa Growth and Opportunity Act, and the 'Rangel Amendment' which sounded the death knell of Apartheid in South Africa.

Even after retiring in 2017, Rangel remained in the political spotlight. He stayed busy with the City College and launched the Charles B. Rangel Infrastructure Workforce Initiative to create jobs, particularly in the Bronx.

NBC has filed an appeal to keep the Delusional One out of tonight's debate.

All Kucinich will do is try to shit on John Edwards to help his "friend" Barack Obama, who cannot debate worth a damn.

I hope NBC doesn't back down.
