Topics
Dennis Kucinich: Kucinich 认为自911事件以来,美国参与的战争是基于谎言的,并且对美国人民的生活质量造成了巨大的损害。他强烈谴责美国在乌克兰和中东的战争,认为这些战争导致了无辜平民的死亡,并且没有明确的结束目标。他主张外交和优先解决国内问题,而不是参与海外战争。他认为两党政治导致了思维的隔断,阻碍了对问题的全面看待,他作为一名独立候选人,能够超越党派立场,看待问题全貌。他还强调了美国政府的腐败以及政府对人民需求的忽视。他承诺将挑战这种腐败,并为人民服务,维护宪法权利,反对政府监控和国内政策的军事化。他认为开放边境政策是不可取的,应该加强边境安全。 Jimmy Dore: Dore 赞同 Kucinich 的观点,认为 Kucinich 是一个和平候选人,他反对美国持续不断的战争,并主张外交和优先解决国内问题。他还讨论了民主党在战争问题上的立场转变,以及 Kucinich 的许多立场曾经是民主党的主张,现在却被认为是右翼立场。 Tim Pool: Pool 在对以色列的军事援助问题上,他同意 Massie 的观点,认为如果以色列发动对外战争,美国应该暂停对以色列的资助,国会应该就美国是否参与战争做出声明。他认为,如果美国资助以色列用于攻击其他国家,而这导致例如伊朗对美国宣战,那么国会必须做出声明。我们不能盲目地资助这些事情。

Shownotes Transcript

Former Democratic Congressman and presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich is running for Congress again, but this time as an independent, looking to help break the deadlock the two parties — often acting more like just one — hold over out polical system. He spoke with Jimmy Dore about the state of the race and why he considers himself an essential peace candidate when both Republicans and Democrats seem hell-bent on careening directly into World War III.   Plus segments on The New Republic Magazine labeling Joe Rogan “one of the worst people in the world,” Congressman Thomas Massie calling for an end to arms sales to Israel, ads featuring Martha Stewart and Sesame Street’s Elmo breaking the law and a black former inmate who wrote a book and thanked Donald Trump.   Also featuring Kurt Metzger, Tim Pool, Stef Zamorano, Dr. David Martin and Mike MacRae. Plus a phone call from Andrew Cuomo!
