NATO is an expanding instrument of U.S. global power that provoked Russia into a criminal invasion and occupation of Ukraine.

They're Vladimir Putin's words, but for some reason they came out of Cornel West's mouth. Odd thing, that.

I wish Bernie Sanders would have talk with him and get him to drop our. WHY THE FUCK IS HE TRYING TO HURT THE DEMOCRATS AND ELECT A FUCKING REPUBLICAN?

HIM RUNNING THIRD PARTY PISSES ME OFF.

he called it a criminal invasion.

He isn't even hiding it anymore that he's just playing spoiler. There's absolutely no reason for a third party candidate to prioritize a swing state.

The independent candidate is well positioned to capitalize on Biden's weaknesses in a certain swing state.

Is he though?

Yeah that's a very questionable byline. They should say least say "could be well positioned".

My favorite Cornel West game is to see how long until he mentions jazz, bonus points if it’s a compound word.

In this article, it’s

“We want to be jazz-like, in terms of raising all of the different voices,” he added.
