Bernie Sanders: "Not my View that Joe [Biden] is Corrupt"

In January, Bernie Sanders said, "It is absolutely not my view that Joe is corrupt in any way." The Daily Beast, earlier in the year, reported:

"Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) apologized to former Vice President Joe Biden after one of his campaign surrogates wrote an op-ed alleging that Biden has a 'big corruption problem.' 'It is absolutely not my view that Joe is corrupt in any way. And I’m sorry that that op-ed appeared,' Sanders told CBS News on Monday evening. The op-ed, written by law professor Zephyr Teachout and published in The Guardian, claims that Biden “has perfected the art of taking big contributions, then representing his corporate donors at the cost of middle- and working-class Americans.” “It is the kind of transactional politics Americans have come to loathe,” Teachout wrote" [https://www.thedailybeast.com/bernie-sanders-apologizes-to-joe-biden-after-surrogate-writes-op-ed-claiming-he-has-a-big-corruption-problem]

Do Sanders supporters agree with him that Biden isn't "corrupt" now that they know that Bernie might have been the "Democratic Party nominee" if the apparently corrupt FBI hadn't covered-up for Biden?

Former President Donald Trump adviser Steve Bannon told Revolver News, "If the content of the hard drive had been released [by the FBI] when received in November 2019, there would have been no impeachment of Trump, and Bernie Sanders would be the Democratic Party nominee":

"The President must confront the director of the FBI on why the information housed on this hard drive was not moved on immediately. If the content of the hard drive had been released when received in November 2019, there would have been no impeachment of Trump, and Bernie Sanders would be the Democratic Party nominee. This confrontation should take place this weekend in the Oval Office. If Wray doesn’t have a bulletproof reason he should be fired in the room."

Why are Bernie Sanders supporters not protesting and rioting?

That was a bad question because they are protesting and rioting.

A better question is:

Why aren't Bernie Sanders supporters demanding that Joe Biden step down and Sanders replace him as the Democratic Party nominee?

Pray an Our Father now for the restoration of the Mass and the Church as well as for the Triumph of the Kingdom of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Mainstream Media: "Is America the Real Victim of Anti-Russia Sanctions?" & "Biden's arrogant anti-Russian sanctions have amounted to a price hike on working class Americans that have so far failed to weaken the Russian economy"

  Mainstream Media Acknowledges Biden’s “Arrogant” Sanctions On Russia Are Damning Americans:     @MaxBlumenthal Biden's arrogant anti-Russian sanctions have amounted to a price hike on working class Americans that have so far failed to weaken the Russian economy. His neocon policy accelerates the process of de-dollarization, diplomatic isolation & imperial decline. The mainstream new outlet asked "Is America the Real Victim of Anti-Russia Sanctions?": Remember the claims that Russia’s economy was more or less irrelevant, merely the equivalent of a small, not very impressive European country? “Putin, who has an economy the size of Italy,” Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said in 2014 after the invasion of Crimea, “[is] playing a poker game with a pair of twos and winning.” Of increasing Russian diplomatic and geopolitical influence in Europe, the Middle East, and East Asia, The Economist asked in 2019, “How did a country with an economy the size of Spain … ach

Book Review: The Banished Heart: Origins of Heteropraxis in the Catholic Church by Dr. Geoffrey Hull (minor update)

http://theradtrad.blogspot.com/2013/08/book-review-banished-heart-origins-of.html Book Review: The Banished Heart: Origins of Heteropraxis in the Catholic Church by Dr. Geoffrey Hull (minor update) Dr Geoffrey Hull source: Wikipedia.org Once every now and then one finds an author capable of approaching a daunting subject with remarkable clairvoyance, not muddling himself among polemics or minutiae. Dr. Geoffrey Hull is one such author. His  The Banished Heart: Origins of Heteropraxis in the Catholic Church  recalls that old saying that the truth is not between two positions, but rather above them. Hull examines the roots of the twentieth century liturgical overhaul by rising above the disputes between liberals and traditionalists that have raged on for five decades and taking a long, far-sighted look back centuries more, to the late first millennium, when the Roman liturgy was maturing, the Roman patriarchate was expanding its missionary presence in Western and Eastern Europe, and the
