fourth interviews with max blumenthal a lefty told gal bird a marine corps vet and congressman woman from hawaii who is it was a staunch left democrat with glenn greenwald who is basically going so in a few months you're going to go on and this is where this technocratic liberal center has forced conservative voices on one side and left voices on the other they're having to reach around and suddenly we have more in common than we thought we did particularly on the issues of foreign policy and military which is the that's a very interesting one and i think you're absolutely right but these people are a lot of the people that mark just mentioned are very prominent well known widely respected but they become demonized as well for changing their position that is really quite remarkable when i think of the names that mark just mentioned there these people earned their good name for a reason and now they're being torn down this thing when there's ation it's not just saw that i would go back to the nazi when they came up with this kind of you know to to scapegoat they came up with this sort
