Sanders people are not very happy. They feel they were robbed and abused
Between the class action lawsuit against the CNN by employees charging them with discrimination and this class-action lawsuit, you would think some of the other networks would at least pretend to be balanced and report this. They certainly covered Bill O'Reilly's problems quite actively.
It's one thing for foreign governments to try and intervene in an election, but how about domestic intervention? Isn't that just as if not more important a violation?
DNC battling class-action suit alleging Sanders was robbed in 2016
The 2016 presidential campaign is still being litigated – literally.
As Trump administration controversies command media attention, a little-noticed set of lawsuits against the Democratic Party continues to play out in the courts – including one claiming coordination with the Clinton campaign against Bernie Sanders amounted to election fraud.
The case being heard in a Florida courtroom dates back to last summer, when the Democrats were thrown into turmoil following the leak of documents that appeared to show some DNC officials sought to undermine Sanders in the party primary. Jared Beck, a Harvard law expert, shortly afterward filed a class-action lawsuit on behalf of residents of 45 states against the DNC and former chairwomen Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
The DNC has been trying for months to have the case dismissed, and scored a temporary victory last year when it was decided the plaintiffs had improperly filed paperwork.
Beck has been fighting the DNC every step of the way, and is demanding the party repay individuals and Sanders supporters for contributions made during the election, alleging misappropriation of funds.
“If we can’t trust the two political parties to run an election in a fair manner, who can we trust?” Beck told Fox News.
