Goodbye, Oscar Weekend!

With “Oscar Weekend” now behind, I want to do a little catchup with some videos which cover important topics. (List of winners: Wikipedia — 90th Academy Awards.) That is why this is getting posted at midnight (12:00 a.m. ET on Monday, March 5, 2018).

Before posting a mix of one pic and six videos, I want to note the following: Tomorrow [Tuesday, March 6, 2018] will be a blog entry recognizing a particular person’s birthday. Thursday [March 8] will have a blog entry on a topic I had overlooked addressing. And Friday [March 9] will be the next “Open Weekend.”


This past weekend, on Saturday [March 3, 2018], I posted, as CoolBlue71, the following question live to Jimmy Dore on The Jimmy Dore Show:


I have asked that question here. But, it dawned on me it may had not been addressed on The Jimmy Dore Show. Now, I have to admit, I was dozing off during his live cast. It was me. I was tired. And my post was a good 90 minutes before his wife, Stef Zamorano, read it and Jimmy answered. So, I am little fuzzy with details. Basically, Dore summed it up as follows: Democratic primaries voters just have not awakened enough—that is, with sufficient numbers—to neoliberalism and rise up to become enough of a threat to the incumbents in the Democratic Party who really need to go. He was getting at, as well, how damaging neoliberal policies are—and that most people are just so busy with their lives that they are too busy to make the time to better inform themselves. (By the way: I think a “blue wave” midterm election, as we’re on a trajectory with getting here in 2018, is the right time to do it. The Democratic Party Establishment also knows this. It is why the DCCC is sabotaging progressives who are trying to win nominations via the primaries.)



Here are some videos to get the new week going:








Here is an interview, on Russia Today’s Crosstalk, discussing the corruption and craziness of the current Democratic Party Establishment:





Here is a—warning time!—43-minute video, and it is once again very perceptive, by Jamarl Thomas:





Here is a 55-minute video of an interview between Tim Black and Niko House:
