Mark my words: they will put Kamala 2.0. or Gavin in the race for president instead of AOC or any other progressive. (feddit.org)

But opposition to Wasserman Schultz, both public and private, had been gaining steam following the publication late last week of leaked emails which seemed to show a plot by DNC officials to damage Bernie Sanders during the Democratic primary.

The emails fed the criticism from progressives and Sanders’ supporters that Wasserman Schultz and her team were hostile to his campaign from the start and had done their best to help Clinton win the Democratic nomination at the Vermont senator’s expense.

Amid furor over an email leak that revealed a bias against Bernie Sanders inside the Democratic National Committee, U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz announced Sunday she will step down as chair.

“I know that electing Hillary Clinton as our next president is critical for America’s future. I look forward to serving as a surrogate for her campaign in Florida and across the country to ensure her victory,” she said. “Going forward, the best way for me to accomplish those goals is to step down as Party Chair at the end of this convention.”

so tell me. why would Clinton have more votes? OH YEAH! because of the bias that Wasserman forced upon the DNC!

I could go on and on with reports just like this but I'm pretty sure my point has been made.

Clinton and Wasserman were working together to circumvent voters choice in order to ensure that Clinton was THE candidate. Unfortunately they gambled with our democracy and lost.

it's worse than whatever you're thinking too. the only reason why they were caught is because they were trying to cheat. wikileaks wouldn't have had anything to leak had they not try to fuck over Bernie.
