The Morning Joe panel continues its discussion on Elizabeth Warren tries to paint Bloomberg as a racist as Super Tuesday approaches



Sen. Elizabeth Warren attacked Bloomberg over allegations, reported by The Washington Post, that Bloomberg had told a saleswoman to "kill it" after he found out that she was pregnant and then complained about the number of pregnant women at his company. The Post later corroborated the woman's claim, which Bloomberg has denied, with another Bloomberg employee who says he witnessed the exchange, for which the woman sued Bloomberg in federal court.

That, however, did not stop Matthews from questioning Warren on whether she was sure of the story six times in a span of just over one minute during a post-debate interview.
Chris Matthews asks Elizabeth Warren why she believes a female employee who sued Mike Bloomberg for telling her "kill it" when she was pregnant over Bloomberg.


"You believe he's lying? ...Why would he lie? Just to protect himself? ...You’re confident of your accusation?"
"You believe that the former mayor of New York said that to a pregnant employee?" Matthews asked in the South Carolina debate's spin room, in an exchange that was reported on by ANT.
"Well, a pregnant employee sure said that he did," Warren retorted. "Why shouldn't I believe her? You know, I'm just really tired of this world. This one is personal for me, it really is. Pregnancy discrimination is real."
As Warren was finishing her point, Matthews began talking over the presidential candidate, questioning her conviction in the accusation she had just doubled-down on.
"But you believe he's that kind of person, that did that?" Matthews said.
"Look, pregnancy discrimination is real," Warren repeated, "and these, we have gone on and on and on where people say aww, I can't really believe the woman. Really? Why not?"
After Warren continued her answer, in which she called for Bloomberg to issue a blanket release for all women who have nondisclosure agreements with him about sexual harassment claims, Matthews challenged her four more times about how sure she was of her response.
"Everybody deserves a credible response when they make a charge like that. My question about him, you believe he's lying?" Matthews asked.
"You believe he's lying?" the anchor asked again.
"And why would he lie, because just to protect himself?" Matthews asked, barely letting Warren get a word in between questions.
"It's a striking event," Matthews commented as Warren was getting visibly exasperated, "I just want to make sure you're clear about this -- you're confident of your accusation?"
Matthews's sixth iteration of the same question came just under one minute and 15 seconds into his exchange with the Massachusetts senator.
Tuesday night was the second consecutive Democratic debate in which Warren went after Bloomberg, whom she also attacked for his previous comments about minorities Tuesday.
Following the Nevada debate last week, Warren managed to raise $2.8 million off of her performance, her campaign said. That, and any fundraising bump from Tuesday, will be valuable to keep her struggling campaign going through and past Super Tuesday, which requires candidates to campaign nationwide rather than from town-to-town as early states Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina require.
Bloomberg, using his personal fortune to finance his campaign, has spent over $400 million on his presidential bid already, despite not competing in any of the first four states. He is staking his hopes on a strong performance in Super Tuesday states to make him appear to be the most viable alternative to the race's front-runner, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders.

  2. Mọi người xem tập 9 của The Flash để ý cái đoạn ở đảo luyện ngục khi linh hồn của Oliver nhận ra bạn bè của minh thì có một nhân vật lạ xuất hiện và kêu Oliver đi theo là Jim Corrigan đi theo ta phải biết "Jim Corrigan là The Spectre" là Sứ giả của đấng tạo hóa The One Above All người tạo ra mọi thứ trong Vũ trụ sơ khai và đa vũ trụ, cả thế giới vật chất và vật chất tối (phản vật chất). Có sứ giả của đấng tạo hóa ở đây chỉ điểm cho Oliver và rồi Oliver lại có sức mạnh của The Spectre tức Oliver lúc này lại trở thành sứ giả của đấng tạo hóa do đó mới có sức mạnh đấu lại Anti-Monitor. Vậy thì nhất định thắng rồi.
    Và khi Oliver tái tạo một vũ trụ mới thì Monitor vẫn tồn tại bằng chứng năm 2040 đưa vợ của Oliver tới một thế giới khác do Monitor tạo ra trong đó ông đã hồi sinh Oliver cho 2 người sống hạnh phúc bên nhau. Như vậy Anti-Moniter trong thế giới mới do Oliver tạo ra cũng tồn tại chỉ là cánh cổng phong ấn giữa Thế giới phản vật chất và thế giới vật chất chưa bị ai mở ra thôi.

"I think putting together a polished show can be very important."
