A Democrat Finally Admits DNC Rigged Primaries for Clinton
The Democratic Party has perpetually denied that the Democratic National Committee (DNC), former Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and the party establishment ensured that Hillary Clinton won the Democratic presidential nomination against Sen. Bernie Sanders by rigging the primaries. Democrats did everything they could to suppress Sandersā candidacy, including Wasserman Schultz changing a rule to help the Clinton campaignās fundraising; Democratic Party officials perpetuating false, divisive narratives; the DNC whitewashing Sandersā campaign; liberal media spreading fake stories that Sanders supporters threw chairs at the Nevada Democratic Party Convention; and then-DNC Vice Chair Donna Brazile giving Clinton debate questions ahead of time. Their schemes worked; Clinton managed to stop Sandersā winning streak in the New York Democratic Primary, where 126,000 voters were mysteriously purged from voter rolls on an election day already marred by shutting out independent voters and the nonexistence of early voting.
Separating from the Democratic Partyās perpetual denial, Rep. Ro Khanna tweeted on May 11, āI was opposed to superdelegates and believe DNC acted improperly in primary by tipping scale,ā in response to Zach Haller and other progressives questioning his credentials for being the most recent addition to Justice Democrats, a PAC run by the Young Turks media network. Khanna is the first Democrat in office to acknowledge this truth. New DNC Chair Tom Perez admitted it during his campaign for DNC chair, only to rescind the claim and lie about saying it afterward.
Though Khanna was willing to admit what the rest of the Democratic Party wonāt, he failed the progressive litmus test in other ways by affirming his support for House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and failing to explain why aligning with a PACāeven Justice Democratsāis the solution to render the reforms progressives want in the Democratic Party. Khannaās donors, which total over $480,000 from the securities and investment industry, and his strong backing from Google and Silicon Valley raised a red flag for progressives as well, though Khanna has been very open to defending his record. He has also expressed interest in doing interviews with progressive media figures like Tim Black to try to solidify support among progressives. Khanna was mentioned in a few of Clinton Campaign Manager John Podestaās emails exposed by Wikileaks. In them, Khannaās advisor reached out to Podesta to try to get Hillary Clinton to make an appearance at his wedding in 2015.
Even if the Democratic Party followed Khannaās lead and separated themselves from their blind loyalty to the status quo, DNC attorneys already affirmed in a class action lawsuit hearing that the DNC has every right to rig the primaries. Instead of trying to tell Sanders supporters what they want to hear, Democrats need to fix the corrupt corporate structure that binds the party to its wealthy donors...
If Crooked Hillary runs again in 2020, her campaign slogan should be Because You Owe Me.
