1. I stopped paying attention to Van Jones a long time ago

2. Is Van JONES a Dem?

I remember when President OBAMA nominated him for something and wingnuts hounded him out and back then I didn't know anything about him and knee-jerked myself defending him.

What little I've bothered with about him ever since has not been good.

3. Van sold his soul a long time ago.

[Mike Nelson]

4. Thank you...

... I avoid him, but still like to know what he's saying. Interesting that he is still on CNN... I wonder when his $$$ contract is up and a $$$$ deal with FOX is considered.

5. I didn't think Van Jones was too bad at all.

Not that he's my favorite commentator by a long shot.

I think he's a solid Democrat, but he tries too hard sometimes to seem "balanced". I'm not sure why, because it's not like Republicans will ever flock to watch him instead of Fox News, OAN or one of their other far-right lie machines.

6. But Trump's SOTU address was "presidential." Ok Van (Nt)

[viva la]

7. I was at a Van Jones lecture and he praised Trump

For his supposed liberalism on prison reform. The lecture wasn't on prison reform, but on, you know, being moderate. He went on and on about how Trump cared even if he wasn't perfect "by any means", and being moderate means giving credit where credit is due....

Jones gets a lot of credit because his mien is so civil, but he made clear that meant giving all sorts of tolerance to the most uncivil man in the country.
