    1. D J I’m guessing you liberals don’t know what the word troll means, because apparently to multiple people on the left, if you disagree with them, you’re an internet troll.

  1. When I was growing up on the reservation with my janitor dad getting ready for my job that I would get fired from for being pregnant and to go to Harvard to teach one class for 400k…I thought a lot bout redlining

    1. If only you FELT as stupid as you SHOULD. I would ask you what entitles you RacistSacksOfShit to spew racist anti-Native stereotypes – and what entitles you to demand that a woman who has _one_ native great-great-great-grandmother should either grow up on a reservation, or NEVER EVER SPEAK OF HER – but the lot of you, put together, given six generations to think about it, would _still_ fail to produce a coherent thought.

    1. @Elaniago . 99% of this country can’t explain redlining.. Liz probably can’t. Mike can……
      Adam ruins everything, explained it wrong.
      The Google results are wrong. And the tv will Never explain it..

    2. @Elaniago . They denied loans to White people on houses in Black areas. They created ghettos.
      They always try to blow it off as denying loans to some black people. That’s Not what happened

    3. @Julius Ebola . White people don’t know what it’s like to be a black person in the ghetto, in America. And black people don’t know what it’s like to be a slave to a mortgage til you die. These are generalizations but they are statistically true. All bankers are bad. Nationalize the reserve, like before the civil war. It’s funny that the southern racists hate the bankers, even though their idiocy led to bankers hijacking the fed in 1913..
      Stop fighting other regular people, pawny

    1. Yes, I do. But I am old and it was a very long time ago. News for-profit changed everything. You have to pick a side and sell, sell, sell…. to keep your viewers interested and tuned in. No matter what you want to believe, some cable news show will tell you the truth you want to hear, if you look hard enough. Even lying, cheating, scamming, and corrupt Trump found Fox News and the people that watch it believe the truth is what they are getting. It is very sad. Most of what we see is option news and they do not have to disclose that is what it is and present it as real news and people eat it up. After all, it is telling them exactly what the wanted to hear.

    2. @Rebel Geek . It was Clinton. The 96 telecommunications act led to rapid consolidation in media. Just in time for iraq..

    1. @Brandon J . Or he could give it to trumps golf resort! Lol. Then trump would vote for him cause he’s the most corrupt president in US history..

  2. I lost all respect for Lawrence O’Donnell as an actual reporter the other night when he insisted in a sweeping generalization that Bernie “could not win big” supported by no evidence whatsoever. Go back to writing fantasy fiction!

  3. Warren destroyed her own campaign with repeat and continuing prevarication. She has lost nearly all credibility. Stop trying to foist her on us MSNBC.
