Bernie Sanders Campaign Chief Says Someone Must Be 'Accountable' for What DNC Emails Show
ABC News ^ | June 23, 2016 | MaryAlice Parks

Posted on 07/23/2016 2:34:47 PM PDT by Zakeet

Bernie Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver said his team was "disappointed" by the emails from the Democratic National Committee leaked through WikiLeaks, which seemed to reveal staff in the party working to support Hillary Clinton.

"Someone does have to be held accountable," Weaver said during an interview with ABC News. "We spent 48 hours of public attention worrying about who in the [Donald] Trump campaign was going to be held responsible for the fact that some lines of Mrs. Obama's speech were taken by Mrs. Trump. Someone in the DNC needs to be held at least as accountable as the Trump campaign."

"We have an electoral process. The DNC, by its charter, is required to be neutral among the candidates. Clearly it was not," Weaver said, responding for the first time to the growing controversy. "We had obviously pointed that out in a number of instances prior to this, and these emails just bear that out."

The Wikileaks e-mail release today was so bad to Sanders that it will make it impossible for him to support her, unless he is a fraud!

It's good to see Trump on this.

However, absent Sanders raising hell on the Stage and Floor of the convention it comes to nothing.

Remember, the DNC supper delegates, if they switched, could put Sanders over the top and hand him the nomination.

But they won't. No matter what.

I missed that tidbit about Cruz, is there a link to that? That would be the final nail.

The DNC has opted for the socialistic approach and raised the wife of an important party member.

This is what Bernie wants, why the objection?

It looks like a few DNC members were part of Ted Cruz’s mass email campaign.. Doesn’t look like there’s anything significant, but people are marrying it to many hitching a ride on Air Force One, including Cruz, where ‘it was all plotted out.’

Bernie needs to divert his remaining campaign funds and retain the services of the slimiest and most experienced law firm he can find and go after the DNC for racketeering and election rigging. Name Hillary Clinton specifically in the complaint.

Shades of ‘68

There will be a great disaster. Probably blood in the streets.

While America watches at home (get the popcorn ready)

the Crooked Womb-man must be under strong delusion.

Progressive Rat Horde will be scattered, divided, impotent to stop DJT.

This is how the LORD defeated the enemies of Israel time and time again.
