Democratic presidential candidate Pete ButtigiegPete ButtigiegScaled-back Pride Month poses challenges for fundraising, outreach Biden hopes to pick VP by Aug. 1 It’s as if a Trump operative infiltrated the Democratic primary process MORE on Tuesday outlined his plan to increase economic prosperity in black communities. 

Buttigieg proposed reforming credit scoring and increasing access to credit in a Charleston Chronicle op-ed. He also pledged to increase the federal government’s contracting with minority-owned firms to 25 percent. The South Bend, Ind., mayor named his plan the “Douglass Plan for Black America” named for abolitionist Frederick Douglass.

Buttigieg also proposed a modern Voting Rights Act that would ban voter ID laws and require potentially discriminatory voting law changes to be reviewed by the Justice Department. 

“Replacing racist policies with neutral ones will not be enough to deliver equality,” he wrote. “We must actively work to reverse these harms, which is why I propose that we invest in equity with a plan as bold as the Marshall Plan.”

The 2020 candidate noted in the op-ed that he will “have a lot more to say about these policies in the coming weeks.”

Buttigieg has polled poorly among black voters in South Carolina, receiving zero percent support in one poll from last month. 

The mayor is among two dozen people vying for the 2020 Democratic nomination. 

Biden, Sanders to be center stage at first debate

The pair have emerged as two of the top contenders in the crowded primary pack and have presented starkly contrasting visions for the future of the party, with Biden casting himself as a centrist and Sanders, a self-proclaimed Democratic Socialist, vowing to continue the “political revolution” he started with his insurgent campaign in 2016.

Beto O’Rourke (D-Texas). 

NBC News, which will host the first debate on back-to-back nights June 26 and June 27, released the lineups for both nights Tuesday.

The lineup sets the stage for Biden and Sanders to go head-to-head for the first time, as the Vermont Independent seeks to cut into Biden’s front-runner status.

The two have taken veiled swipes at each other in recent weeks. During a speech at the California Democratic Party convention earlier this month, Sanders criticized the idea of a “middle ground” approach to politics, aiming at Biden’s reputation as a moderate.

Biden said at a Chicago fundraiser last week that the country needs change but that “socialism” is not the answer, an apparent jab at Sanders and the progressive flank of the party. 

The second night of the debate is stacked with four top-tier candidates, and Biden, Sanders, Buttigieg and Harris are all seeking to make inroads with a Democratic base that must decide among 24 contenders. 

Though Warren will share the debate stage with high-profile candidates such as O’Rourke and Sens.

The setup will hinder Warren’s ability to take on Biden and Sanders head-to-head but provides an opportunity for her to stand out as a front-runner in her own right on the first night’s debate stage.

Sanders appeared to knock his Senate colleague in a tweet Wednesday referencing corporate Democrats supporting “anybody but Bernie,” but he denied it was a shot at his fellow progressive.

“That tweet was not about Elizabeth Warren at all. Not at all. Elizabeth is a friend of mine, and we’re going to run what I hope are issue-oriented campaigns,” Sanders told CNN’s Chris CuomoChristopher (Chris) Charles CuomoTed Cruz mocks CNN over naked Chris Cuomo in wife’s yoga video Minneapolis mayor: No change in position on calls to defund police after being booed Trump says he believes Scarborough ‘got away with murder’ MORE on “Cuomo Primetime.”

“This was, though, a very strong statement about a group called Third Way, and you know that Third Way is the corporatist wing of the Democratic Party,” he continued. 

Sanders’s remarks come hours after he referenced a Politico article about how Democrats are running to Warren’s campaign in a bid to block him from getting the nomination. 

The two candidates will appear on the debate stage on different nights next week, avoiding a face-off for the time being. 

Monza Speed Trap: Who is the fastest of them all?

September 6, 2020 | News | No Comments

However fast an F1 car is designed to go, it has the potential to reach or even exceed its top speed capabilities at Monza.

Slipstreaming is an art at Italy’s Temple of Speed where a well-timed run in the low-pressure wake of a preceding car can deliver significant gains in terms of velocity and boost the momentum of even the most under-powered car.

Case in point: Ferrari’s engine woes are well chronicled, with the sheer output of Maranello’s current power unit reined in since last year by the FIA’s watchdogs, but holy prancing horse, guess who topped the speed trap readings in qualifying?

    Monza’s banking: An eerie feeling of glory and tragedy

Well, it wasn’t a Ferrari, but it was a Ferrari-powered machine, with Kimi Raikkonen’s Alfa Romeo flashing through the sensors at a whopping 354.5 km/h!

Of course, the Iceman’s performance must be considered in the context of the Alfa’s aero settings and the likely significant draft exploited by the Finn. Especially as another Ferrari-powered driver, Sebastian Vettel, is listed at the other end of the spectrum, a full 20 km/h adrift.

The numbers perhaps also support Red Bull’s view that Monza, despite being a power circuit, is not a representative track to judge the full impact of the FIA’s ban on special qualifying modes.

We’ll have another look at this next week at Mugello.

“Everyone said I’ll be tweeting. I’ll actually be in a plane, and it just seems very boring, but I’m going to watch it because I have to,” Trump said on Fox Business Network.

Trump is scheduled to depart for Japan on Wednesday afternoon, with the first debate taking place at 9 p.m. EDT. The president will still be en route to Osaka, but he has tweeted from Air Force One before.

“I think that Joe Biden is going to have to talk a lot about his record during this election, and I think it’s only right that he talk about everything from his support of the 1994 crime bill, which was jet fuel to mass incarceration, all the way to his stance on busing,” Booker said in a Friday interview on CNN’s “New Day.”

Booker noted the tense jabs between Biden and Sen. Kamala HarrisKamala Devi HarrisRand Paul introduces bill to end no-knock warrants The Hill’s Campaign Report: Biden campaign goes on offensive against Facebook McEnany says Juneteenth is a very ‘meaningful’ day to Trump MORE (D-Calif.) during the second night of the first 2020 Democratic debates, during which Harris slammed Biden for opposing federally mandated school busing as a means of integrating schools.

“There’s real racial issues we’ve got to deal with. The next nominee, whoever they are, is going to have to be able to talk about this in an open and honest and even vulnerable way,” Booker said. “If they make mistakes, if they say something wrong, as we all do, they can’t fall into a defensive crouch and shift blame. They have to be able to help our country heal and reconcile and deal with these difficult issues that persist in our country. We need someone who can unite this nation and bring us together to common purpose again.”

“I think that anyone who knows our painful history knows that on voting rights, on civil rights, on the protections from hate crimes, African Americans in this country and many other groups have had to turn to the federal government to intervene because there were states that were violating those rights. There were states and state policies that were driving these deep divisions in our country,” the New Jersey senator added later in the interview.

Booker also criticized Biden again for his comments on working with segregationist Sens. James Eastland (D-Miss.) and Herman Talmadge (D-Ga.) in an effort to get “things done” during his time in the Senate. Booker called on Biden to apologize for the comments earlier this month.  

“We have to have a nominee that’s up to this challenge, and I think we’re going to see whether or not Joe Biden is. I don’t think you can fault folks like me for calling him out if he fails to live up to the standard that our next nominee should have and speak to the real pain and the real hurt that I think Kamala spoke to last night,” Booker said.

Biden raises $21.5M in second quarter

September 5, 2020 | News | No Comments

Former Vice President Joe BidenJoe BidenHillicon Valley: Biden calls on Facebook to change political speech rules | Dems demand hearings after Georgia election chaos | Microsoft stops selling facial recognition tech to police Trump finalizing executive order calling on police to use ‘force with compassion’ The Hill’s Campaign Report: Biden campaign goes on offensive against Facebook MORE brought in a $21.5 million haul during the second quarter, his campaign announced Wednesday.

The Biden campaign reported that 97 percent of contributions came from grass-roots donors, and 256,000 donors made more than 436,000 donations. The average donation to the campaign was $49, his campaign said.

Biden’s team also reported that the campaign did not receive lobbyist, PAC or fossil fuel donations.

While Biden’s campaign touted that he raised more money per day during the second quarter than any other campaign, South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete ButtigiegPete ButtigiegScaled-back Pride Month poses challenges for fundraising, outreach Biden hopes to pick VP by Aug. 1 It’s as if a Trump operative infiltrated the Democratic primary process MORE topped Biden’s overall fundraising total, bringing in nearly $25 million in the second quarter.

The Buttigieg campaign said that more than 400,000 donors contributed to his presidential bid, with the average contribution at $47.42. The South Bend mayor and Biden both officially launched their presidential campaigns in April.

Buttigieg’s fundraising haul is welcome news for the mayor, who until months ago was relatively unknown on the national stage, bringing in only $7 million during the first fundraising quarter. 

Biden’s campaign announced their figures as the former vice president seeks to shore up support in the crowded primary field and maintain his position atop national polls following a bruising performance in the first Democratic debates last week.

Meanwhile, Sen. Bernie SandersBernie SandersThe Hill’s 12:30 Report: Milley apologizes for church photo-op Harris grapples with defund the police movement amid veep talk Biden courts younger voters — who have been a weakness MORE (I-Vt.) has slipped in polls following the first debate, raising questions about his prospects in the race.

On the money front, Sanders also trails Buttigieg and Biden in the latest fundraising period, bringing in $18 million in the second quarter.

Sanders campaign officials have emphasized that the senator has avoided high-dollar fundraisers, and has not explicitly courted big donors or Democratic bundlers. 

Buttigieg and Biden both attended fundraising events in the days after last week’s Democratic debate.

The ads will begin appearing today and will broadcast through July 23, according to Politico.

“Government by and for all the people, not just the powerful and well-connected,” the billionaire activist says in one ad released on YouTube. “That’s the American promise, but big special interests and corporations are in control.”

“Nothing’s happening for real people. Our democracy’s been purchased,” he continues.

“I like Tom personally, but I do have to say, as somebody who in this campaign has received 2 million contributions, averaging $19 a person, I’m a bit tired of seeing billionaires trying to buy political power,” Sanders told MSNBC.

Warren shared the Vermont senator’s sentiments.

“The Democratic primary should not be decided by billionaires, whether they’re funding Super PACs or funding themselves,” Warren added in a tweet. “The strongest Democratic nominee in the general will have a coalition that’s powered by a grassroots movement.”

Sanders took aim at Biden for saying that transitioning to his health care plan, which would eliminate private health insurance, would leave patients with serious illnesses such as cancer in limbo.

“At a time when Donald TrumpDonald John TrumpSenate advances public lands bill in late-night vote Warren, Democrats urge Trump to back down from veto threat over changing Confederate-named bases Esper orders ‘After Action Review’ of National Guard’s role in protests MORE and the health insurance industry are lying every day about Medicare for All, I would hope that my fellow Democrats would not resort to misinformation about my legislation,” Sanders’s campaign said in an email to supporters.

“It is preposterous to argue that as we expand Medicare For All that people with cancer and other illnesses will not get the care that they need. In fact, under Medicare For All, the good news is that we will end the horror of millions of people going into bankruptcy and financial distress simply because they need hospital care for serious conditions,” he added.

Biden has called for building upon the Obama-era Affordable Care Act and making a public option such as Medicare available to those who want it.

“He said you’re going to have to raise taxes on the middle class. He said it’s going to end all private insurance,” Biden told reporters Friday of Sanders’s health care plan. 

“I don’t want to start over. How many of you out there have had someone you’ve lost to cancer? Or cancer yourself? No time, man. We cannot have a hiatus of six months, a year, two, three to get something done,” he added.

The Biden campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Hill regarding Sanders’s statement.

Health care has emerged as a key issue dividing the progressive and centrist candidates on the campaign trail.

Several 2020 White House contenders have expressed support for Medicare for All, including Sens. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) and Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) as well as former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julian Castro.  

Candidates have been more reserved about whether they support eliminating private insurance, with Warren and New York City Mayor Bill de BlasioBill de BlasioProtesters splash red paint on NYC streets to symbolize blood De Blasio: Robert E Lee’s ‘name should be taken off everything in America, period’ House Democratic whip pushes back on calls to defund police: We need to focus on reform MORE (D) saying they would favor such a move and Harris initially expressing support but later backtracking.

The candidates with the highest poll numbers will be center stage at the debates. 

Warren and Sanders will be center stage the first night, while Harris and Biden will stand next to each other on the second night. 

The assignment is a rematch for Biden and Harris. The California senator attacked Biden head-on during the first debate, criticizing his civil rights record, specifically on busing. 

Harris experienced a bump in the polls and fundraising after she confronted Biden in the forum.

Biden said after the first debate that he did not expect Harris to confront him in the way that she did on the issue. 

Booker, who has criticized Biden’s past comments on working with segregationist senators, will stand on the other side of Biden, which could result in more moments of friction. 

The debate will also mark the first time progressives Sanders and Warren go head to head. 

Warren has risen in the polls in recent months, laying out detailed plans on her progressive policies. 

Sanders, who shares similarities with Warren on progressive policies, has in turn plateaued or dipped in polls. 

The two senators will likely seek to differentiate their policies and tout their own.
