WASHINGTON — A pro-Bernie Sanders group has canceled an anti-Hillary Clinton protest, its organizer told NBC News on Monday.

The event, created by the leader of a local chapter of Our Revolution, prompted backlash from Clinton allies, leading Sanders' top adviser to condemn it and disassociate his boss from the group, which grew out of Sanders presidential campaign.

**SNIP**

On Monday morning, Our Revolution’s high command called Faden, who then told NBC News she would cancel the event and was working to remove it from the website and Facebook.

"I’m still going to go myself, just as a private citizen, but with nothing whatsoever to do with Our Revolution," she said. "I don’t want to jeopardize anything with Our Revolution. I really didn’t expect this to happen."

The founder of the Hazlet, New Jersey, chapter of Our Revolution objected to the fact that Rutgers University is paying Clinton $25,000 for an upcoming speech, so she thought she'd use the event to make a point about money in politics.

Can't anyone show up and protest Mrs. Bill Clinton just for the heck of it?

Arkancide is a strong deterrent.

“Arkancide is a strong deterrent.”

Yep, sadly for several dozen people threats by the Clintons are to be taken seriously.

Bernie "Brand new $600,000 lake house" Sanders tells his supporters that they must not protest Hillary. That fight was over when the check was cashed.

The Bernie-Bots still haven’t figured out that they were sold a crock...

It’s sad - funny, true enough - but still sad...

[Dutch Boy]

$25,000 for a Clinton speech?!?!?!?

I guess they can’t get premium gigs when they are removed from the seat of influence. That is a sure sign that all the high dollar speeches were actually pay for play schemes.

[shelterguy]

They are going to pay the LOSER of the election to speak? They can get all the TRUMP SUCKS speeches for free on any news show

A few more months than 17 since Hillary bought Bernie’s house for him.
