AMERICANALMANAC (Sadie Smith) - Charles Barkley rips CNN and the two-party system in blunt on-air rebuke

Charles Barkley used a sit-down interview with Smerconish to tear into CNN's partisan programming format and a political system he says has left Americans "brainwashed", a critique that landed harder because he works for the network. The former NBA star and current sports personality didn't hold back. Barkley, who has previously voiced support for Democrats and whom CNN recently trusted to lead a primetime talk show, turned his frustration on the very network signing his checks, and on a political culture he says forces Americans to pick a side whether it makes sense or not. His core complaint: the entire system is rigged to benefit the people already at the top, while ordinary Americans get sorted into partisan teams that serve no one's…Open

According to Charles Barkley, how do political parties win elections?
Barkley argued that elections are won by swaying a very small margin of voters. He stated that parties only need to sway three to five percent of the people with something they are passionate about or against in order to win elections, rather than focusing on solving problems for the general population.

How did Charles Barkley describe the programming format currently used by CNN?
Barkley, who works for CNN and was recently trusted to lead a primetime talk show, criticized the network's partisan programming format. He described watching evening shows where two Republicans and two Democrats scream at each other for an hour without persuading or helping anyone, stating, "That's an hour of my life I can't get back." He suggested the format treats political argument as entertainment rather than providing value.

What were Charles Barkley's specific criticisms regarding the American political system during his interview with Smerconish?
Barkley criticized the two-party system, stating that the current political culture forces Americans to pick a side—whether as a Democrat, Republican, conservative, liberal, or socialist—even if it makes no sense to them. He described Americans as being "brainwashed" into defaulting to party labels rather than evaluating individual issues on their own merits. He further argued that the system is designed to benefit people at the top, creating a dynamic of "rich people against poor people" where political identities are based on race and education rather than solving problems for everyone.

DAILYCALLER (William Buckley) - Nebraska’s ‘Independent’ Senate Candidate Recruited By The Same Couple Behind Graham Platner

‘Graham Platner should not be a US Senator’

The same couple that helped recruit Graham Platner to run for Senate in Maine also recruited Dan Osborn, an independent candidate for Senate from Nebraska who is widely backed by the state’s Democrats, according to reports. In a video obtained by Townhall , a woman they identified as a member of Osborn’s campaign staff named Colleen claimed he recruited Democrat Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner. She alleged Osborn kicked off a move to recruit “working class candidates” for elections but declined to name anyone else. However, strategists Daniel Moraff and Leanne Fan helped recruit and guide both Platner and Osborn, Politico reported in December. Osborn rejected the claims in the video in a statement to the Daily Caller. “The…Open
