Sanders Camp says someone must be held 'accountable' for what DNC emails show

"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."

Weaver said the emails showed misconduct at the highest level of the staff within the party and that he believed there would be more emails leaked, which would "reinforce" that the party had "its fingers on the scale."

"Everybody is disappointed that much of what we felt was happening at the DNC was in fact happening, that you had in this case a clear example of the DNC taking sides and looking to place negative information into the political process.

The disgust I hold for the DNC and Hillary Clinton holds no bounds. As soon as I vote in the FL primary I will do a #DEMEXIT after a loyal lifetime of voting Dem. #JillStein2016

I believe Hillary has stolen the election, thanks to the DNC, and did take bribes while SOS.
As for accountability, some 4th tier person will get fired. (Then hired in a lucrative position by Blumenthal, or the like.)

I think you are entirely correct. This looks like a deliberate attempt to provoke actions that will allow Clinton to exclude the left from any role in policy-making in the next 4 years.

But I don't think we can ignore it and hope for crumbs. Our only recourse is to take non-violent actions in numbers too big to ignore. If there is violence the source has to be as clear as it was in 1968. And it's harder now. There were still journalists in the MSM in 1968.

You are correct that there were still journalists in the msm in 1968 and there are none now. However, the government is sneakier now, too. They will have people in street clothes, pretending to be leftists and/or anarchists, which government still loves to conflate with the left. And they will do things even the left will consider bad.

There is a compelling case that the violence that fragmented the left was instigated largely by government provocateurs. The left has never fully recovered.

Lieberman campaigned for John McCain for a year, and when Obama won, Lieberman still kept his chairmanship -- what punishment he had to endure. Yeah, right.

election (or non-election as the case might be). The Revolution has always been Sanders' first priority. Just winning one political position will not accomplish that.

Would you plant a seedling and then expose it to direct sunlight at the hottest part of the day?

Do you believe if this wasn't already news that Sanders would say nothing? He is for ripping the blinders off, but the corruption is now out for all who are willing to see it. He lets critical thinking take place rather than telling us what to think.

There are a lot of things he could have said during the primaries that he chose not to say regarding her many failures as an SOS: Honduras, the Foundation, Libya, or as a senator: the phony gun stance, the Patriot Act vote, the vote to NOT delay the Iraq invasion.

Once again, Sanders expects the public to do their own critical thinking rather than being told what to think. Maybe he expects too much.

He is hardly an HRC cheerleader. His goal is not see that Trump is not elected. He has not told his supporters to vote for her, and has in fact, in an interview said that he could not tell his supporters how to vote. There can be critical thinking any time one chooses to use it.

There is a place for critical thinking among people who already support him, to say to each other. There is also a place for someone in the federal government to say something to the nation, with authority. Odds are no one who now supports Hillary will speak out. Who does that leave, but Sanders? Then again, Sanders is among those who now supports Hillary.

After a divisive primary season between presumptive nominee Hillary Clinton and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, the convention schedule includes a speech from Sanders on the first night, Monday, July 25.

That night's theme is "United Together" — indeed, of the four nights' themes, three include the word "together."

and the following, with no exact times listed for the speakers:

Monday: United Together

Featuring first lady Michelle Obama, Sen. Bernie Sanders and DREAMer Astrid Silva

Gavel time expected at 3:00 p.m.

Monday will focus on putting the future of American families front and center and how we're stronger together when we build an economy that works for everyone, not just those at the top and when everyone has a chance to live up to their God-given potential. DREAMer Astrid Silva will share her story and her fight to keep families together.

If I find anything more specific, I'll post it.

of speakers is the 'gavel time,' and the order of the speakers.

Per Politico:

Here's a schedule of headlining speakers slated to address the 2016 Democratic convention in Philadelphia July 25 to July 28, according to the Democratic National Convention Committee.

Monday:

First Lady Michelle Obama, Senator Bernie Sanders and DREAMer Astrid Silva

Gavel time expected at 3:00 p.m.

So, guess it depends upon how long the First Lady speaks, as to when Bernie's speech begins. Not fair that the runner up in the primary, will be speaking during work, or school hours for many folks.

about the RNC Convention schedule, made it very plain who the 'keynote' speakers were, and approximately when they would speak--then listed the other speakers.

It's rather amazing that something that important has been omitted from the DNC Convention schedule of speakers (in these articles).

Again, I'm going to 'assume' that Michelle, Bernie, and the third speaker on Monday evening are keynoters--which normally means a evening prime time speaking slot--until, or unless, I read differently.

Since there is now proof that the DNC/DWS/HRC were actively working to undermine Bernie's campaign, Bernie should give his speech at the DNC..., and then leave and NOT campaign for Her Highness and her new Lackey. There is no reason for Bernie to campaign for her now that the truth is coming out about how badly he's been stabbed in the back. She has her own surrogates; she does not need to rub salt in wounds she gave to Bernie.

Anyway, it doesn't make one whit of difference what Bernie says to/about $Hillary, no one with an ounce of sense or a brain with two gray cells to rub together is going to vote "for" $Hillary anyway. I suspect most will vote third party or leave the prez section blank, or as a giant FU to DNC/HRC/DWS, some might actually vote "for" Drumpf. IMHO, Drumpf would not be as dangerous as $Hillary in the Oval Office. He can be controlled by anyone patient enough to flatter his ego and guide him to thinking something is his idea. The other fear tactic of "Remember SCOTUS!" doesn't scare me either. $Hillary will only nominate those who would please her Rethuglican friends since she is the head of the DINO wing of the Rethuglican party.

(Has anyone else noticed HRC's body language in Kaine's presence? Did I really see her flirty glances, grin, and giggly squirming body language ... or not? I only saw a few seconds on video, the other poses are in still photos, but I cringed.)

Anyway, Bernie was betrayed, kneed, shafted, and stabbed in the back by DNC/DWS/HRC, and that (IMNSHO) renders any verbal or written agreement Bernie had with them null and void.

I won't feel good if the corruption of the DNC continues, but everyone thinks it's over because DWS got fired or fell on her sword after enough demands for her so to do.

I am very disappointed in Bernie that he is pretending that simply firing her is the complete answer. He is not even referring the more widespread nature of the culpability.

Of course, she should be fired, but that will solve nothing for the next time. Bernie ran once, but all of us will be living with this corrupt culture for as long as it continues.

Firing Debbie may, however, help Tim Canova and I certainly want that.

For Sen. Sanders to stand down from the endorsement, and leave the party.

They didn't play by their own rules.

DWS and HRC lied to him. They told him is was a fair contest, and it was not. Sec. Clinton said she would promote progressive ideals, but her choice of VP clearly states that she will not.

They committed election fraud.

At this point, the evidence is clear, and Sen. Sanders should state it: the Democratic party is corrupt, and in the pocket of regressive big-money interests, and Former Sec. Clinton is an inveterate liar who cannot be trusted with the job of president of the united states - and in any case if elected, would be subject to continuous legal battles with a Republican congress, probably leading to impeachment.

His best path to ensuring a non-Trump Presidency is to go independent.

Does the DNC, DWS and HRC believe in the integrity of the process? Or is it just that Hillary wins, period? Why would we want people in power that don't believe in democracy and that the process is sacred?

We have to compare this to the RNC. They defined the process and allowed it to proceed unhindered, even though they might not have preferred a Trump candidacy. They don't have super-delegates, and we haven't heard about voter fraud.

Are we objective enough to say congratulations to the RNC?

It's a sad day when the model for a democratic process comes from the RNC not the DNC.

they are not a democratic party, but a corrupt party filled with corrupt democrats

See, how it works is, if they call that a "troll" post--because yeah, that means one who uses it is an idiot GOP shill--putting the poster/thought on ice by calling it out/flagging it/banning the poster keeps you from coming to that same conclusion.

Propaganda is an ugly thing.

Do I hear the sound of guillotines being constructed?

I take screen grabs with AnalogX (old school). I view pics through IrfanView, and when I click properties, it gives me the name of my computer which has my first name in it, which is a no-go for me. But I thought you had a great idea. Thanks, anyway.

On my Windows 8.1 laptop it works like this: Go into your Pictures folder. Click on an image/multiple images. Go to top and click on Properties. Click "remove properties". It gives you a list of stuff you can remove, or you can remove all properties. Or you can right click and see the same options.

Be sure to save the properties info as a document first if you might want it later!

a nation that allows cheating, lying, corruption, torture and bribery as an everyday occurrence without punishment. Nothing will be done and nothing will happen.
Remember, because of fear, we must stop the worst presidential candidate in modern history. We just have to figure out which one it is.

Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.

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?
