Is it true thate Jane Sanders "resigned"
as Board chair and that Cohen is the new Chair?
If so, can you tell us, to quote Wolf, "What's going on here? What's going on?"
There are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns – the ones we don't know we don't know.
I don't know about Jane resigning,
But Bernie announced that Larry Cohen would head up the board.
I see nothing on the website about the board of directors. I think that needs to be added. I'll need to see if there's some contact info to request this be added.
Yes, Jane Sanders quit Our Revolution
Edit: I think I read this wrong. It does not say Jane quit. H/t to Eagles92 below

I'm confused.
This says Claire Sandberg quit, but doesn't say anything about Jane.
Reread the last sentence. n/t

This one?
After failing to move Jane Sanders, Pennington and many others felt “that we had no choice but to quit,” Sandberg explained.
I think I'm reading it differently than you. Not sure which reading is correct, but my take is that Pennington et al tried to convince Jane that Weaver was a bad choice, and Jane didn't budge, so they quit.
Ah, ok I read it wrong
So if Jane stays involved, it's pretty much a Sanders endorsement of Weaver's decisions. I'm a bit perplexed, but I'm not the sharpest pencil in the C99 box so...

Well, neither am I, lol.
I do wonder if Jane will stay involved. I hope not. She strikes me as someone at least as astute as Bernie, so she should know how it will look if she remains.
Yet, as a 5014(c), OR can't coordinate with campaigns.
So just what will their "support" consist of? I suspect the answer is simply, money. Because, after all, what difference have a bunch of dedicated, passionate people working together ever accomplished?
Sorry, Sanders, but you've dropped the ball. I think those people disappointed by this old-school approach are not going to just submit. Nor will they fade away. I'm hopeful that we'll find a way to keep the truly grassroots progressive effort moving forward.
Dude didn't drop it
he gave it up because he's either not playing their fucking game or he's been chucked off the team.
So am I. I'd suggest working for the Greens, but YMMV on that
