Bernie Sanders 'deeply humiliated' Democrats lost white working-class voters
snip//
Washington (CNN) Sen. Bernie Sanders expressed his disappointment Monday with Hillary Clinton's failure to secure the support of white working-class voters in last week's presidential election.
Donald Trump "very effectively" tapped into "the anger and angst and pain that many working class people are feeling," the Vermont independent senator who challenged Clinton in the Democratic primary said on "CBS This Morning."

"I think that there needs to be a profound change in the way the Democratic Party does business," Sanders said. "It is not good enough to have a liberal elite. I come from the white working class, and I am deeply humiliated that the Democratic Party cannot talk to where I came from."

Mahalo, RSF
But, isn't that "our revolution's" so-called Big Thing.. "money out
of politics? And, they're set up so they don't have to disclose where the fucking money comes from?
Good to know, emulatorloo! Thank You!
The organization, called Our Revolution, will operate as a nonprofit 501(c)(4) a designation that does not require disclosure of donors or spending because of its status as a social welfare organization. Political action committees, on the other hand, are under the authority and disclosure requirements of the Federal Election Commission rather than the Internal Revenue Service, which oversees nonprofits.

I call BS on the OP.. Awesome Dems are out there Winning All Over the Country and Actually Helping
People!There are all kinds of Dems across the Country Fighting to TAKE the HOUSE with what works in their District.. think Conor Lamb and incumbent Eliot Engel in NY District 16..
For Democrats Challenging Party Incumbents, Insurgency Has Its Limits

Nancy Pelosi, the minority leader of the House of Representatives, recently made an appearance with Mr. Engel in his district and praised him profusely. We couldnt be better served than by Eliot Engel, she said.
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/21/nyregion/congress-primaries-democrats-midterm-ny.html
"its the establishment wing of the Democratic Party that is having a good 2018. And, more important, its having a good year in the places that matter most this November."
"What about those other 19 primaries, where the establishment Democrat won? There are a lot more congressional battlegrounds in that group, 11 in total, including 5 true tossups."

But the stories this week about the surprising power of the left side of the party may have overstated the case a bit.
Going by the numbers, its the establishment wing of the Democratic Party that is having a good 2018. And, more important, its having a good year in the places that matter most this November.

If you're quite finished.. read this..
There were no "poison pills" in the legislation that would jeopardize the Iran treaty. From a August 2017 post here at DU.
"The Senate...overwhelmingly passed legislation that would impose new U.S. sanctions that would target Iran's ballistic missile program, its support for terrorism and human rights violations, and yet it would still comply with the Iranian nuclear deal."
snip-------------------
"Richard Nephew [a lead negotiator of the nuclear deal who previously served as principal deputy coordinator for sanctions policy at the State Department from 2013 to 2015] said he has no problem closing loopholes in existing sanctions law, but he doubts that it would add to the U.S.'s already robust sanctions architecture. He said the measure wouldn't harm the nuclear deal."
snip-------------------
"Richard Nephew, who served as principal deputy coordinator for sanctions policy at the State Department from 2013 to 2015 and who was a lead negotiator of the treaty, told CBS news that 'these secondary sanctions would comply with the nuclear deal because Iran's missile program is excluded from the agreement. Obama administration officials were unable to win that demand in the deal.'"
snip-------------------
"It's unclear if the legislation is even needed -- the Trump administration already has the authority to execute what is already covered under the bill, Nephew said" ...These secondary sanctions would comply with the nuclear deal because Iran's missile program is excluded from the agreement."
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/senate-eyes-irans-ballistic-missile-program-with-new-sanctions/
Moreover, it was reported in Al-Monitor/Iran Pulse that
"Nasser Hadian, a prominent professor of international relations at the University of Tehran... does not believe that the new sanctions would explicitly violate the nuclear deal, though they defy the intent of the JCPOA. Hadian believes there is coordination and agreement between the United States and the EU in the escalation of pressure on Iran over its missile program, while avoiding explicit violation of the nuclear deal."
http://www.al-monitor.com/pulse/originals/2017/07/iran-us-senate-bill-sanctions-reactions-nuclear-deal.html#ixzz4ovssh49P
The impact of the sanctions on Russia (rather than those on Iran) seemed to be the focus of the foreign press.
Because Senator Sanders's messaging video specifically invokes a "warning" from former SOS John Kerry, I was especially interested in reading his testimony. I couldn't find it in the Congressional Record.
Apparently the warning came, not in testimony, but via Twitter and a week later in remarks at a fundraising event.
After Rouhanis reelection, there is much up in the air/room for misinterpretation. This is not the moment for a new Iran bill, Kerry tweeted.
