9 Leaked Emails the DNC Doesn’t Want You to See

20,000 new emails released by WikiLeaks on Friday show multiple examples of the Democratic National Committee coordinating with the Clinton campaign and major media figures to both build up Hillary Clinton and trash Bernie Sanders, all while claiming neutrality to the public. But the astonishingly deep level of collaboration and coordination has still gone unreported.

As of right now, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Hillary Clinton, or Bernie Sanders have all ignored the growing controversy surrounding the leaked emails. But the contents of the emails are likely to stir up tension between rivaling factions of delegates at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia next week.

Here are nine of the most egregious examples of the DNC actively working with the media and the Clinton campaign to smear Sanders:

1. The DNC’s communications director was eager to point out negative angles for Sanders stories
Luis Miranda, the national communications director for the DNC, is seen in two separate email chains briefing reporters with both Politico and the Wall Street Journal. In one email thread with Politico’s Daniel Strauss, Miranda told Strauss that he would “point out… some of the issues” with Sen. Sanders’ DNC committee appointments “off the record” with Strauss to help him write his story. Strauss initially asked for Miranda to send the list of appointments over “with no fingerprints attached.”

In another email thread dated May 11 of this year, Miranda is seen briefing the Wall Street Journal’s Laura Meckler on Sanders’ committee appointments, complaining that Sanders continued to demand fair representation on the DNC’s platform committee despite DNC chairperson Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s concessions to the Sanders campaign.

So, is Sanders going to take all this quietly or is he going to take a real good look at the 'candidate' and her TPP-supporting bank deregulating VP selection.

election cycle because there really isn't anything he can do about it for his own nomination. However, I am sure he has added it to his To-Do List to clean up the Party. Work, work, work...an honest person's job is never done.

The current working assumption appears to be that our Shroedinger's Cat system is still alive. But what if we all suspect it's not, and the real problem is we just can't bring ourselves to open the box?

But I don't like the fact that he ignored the blatant vote rigging that happened, or why his campaign didn't make a fuss when Bill interfered with the voting in Massachusetts or the other things that the DNC did to him and his campaign.
He said that he wouldn't go negative, but calling out the pay for play Hillary, Bill and the foundation did while she was SOS should have been fair game.
Here's an interesting article about Bernie and his campaign.

Why did he gave her cover for the email scandal when he knew that she used a non government, private server?
There was many other things he could have brought up without going negative, but he gave her a pass.
I'm grateful that he removed the curtain that the democrats were hiding behind and showed us who they actually were, but I think he could have gone after her more.
I'm waiting to see what happens at the convention, but this article raises some interesting points.

I have so far put those things down to "I'll never know what he knows", and "threats against him" At least, until I see his countenance at the convention. Because I know damned well the latter is possible, perhaps even probable.

Speaking of which, boy, are TPTB quiet about Sanders' appearance on Monday or what?? I think he's got them on the run, they have no idea what he's up to. I figure that's a good sign, too, but we'll know for sure if it's just wishful thinking or not, in a couple days...

We need to spread the word, we need to end the free ride for the criminals and insane ones and vote Green! otherwise look at the choices, Crap(Libertatians), Shit(false faced Dems who suck on the ass of wallstreet), and sewage(the orange maniac). Sorry for the language, but it is the most colorful way to convey my concerns, consternation and churning rage at our current system.
