"A typical “big donor” to the group is Arden Buck, an 84-year-old retired research engineer in Colorado who gave $10,000 after receiving a windfall insurance payout. I found him through public fundraising records; when I asked him how he found about Justice Democrats, he said he saw them mentioned on MSNBC and that he was driven by concern about greenhouse gases and wanted to give money to groups that could use it the most. “I am focused on climate change. If we don’t take care of the environment, social justice is beside the point,” he told me...."

This really jumped out at me, 84 years old but still concerned about the world he leaves behind, that is hopeful. The danger is easy to see if one looks, the problem is so few are willing to look. the quote is from here:

It must be tough for you Shadz now that the resistance is moving into the Democratic Party just as I always knew it had to, but I see you are still pushing your bullshit even if you are just standing shouting at the moon all by yourself.

It is Bernie or 3rd Party but of course your head is, as ever - so far up the butt of The Corp. Democratic

Establishment - that U can't see that even IF "the resistance is moving into the Democratic Party" - that

the Corporate Controlled DNC, will never allow a NON-Corporate Ass Kisser like Bernie, to be the Dem

POTUS nominee Until & Unless either the Democratic Party is re-occupied by USA's 99% OR there's a

True 99% Party in USA! Where would Working Class Politics be now and in 2020, IF Sanders had gone

3rd Party in 2016 - when he was cheated & robbed of The Dem Nomination? Keep taking me on here &

on Twitter but your failure to read the links I provide means you're almost always arguing from a point of

view of prejudiced, self-referential & reactionary ignorance. + FYI, please engage with these...

respice; adspice; prospice ...
