The DNC is complicit. The finances are a bad smell. They paid Oprah to show up. I thought celebrities did that to support the party but no, they just want another bag. A billion fucking dollars to lose to trump. On the plus side, it shows that one doesn't need a billion dollars to be the president, if we even have another election

What is even more unusual are the explosive clashes taking place in and around the Harris campaign universe. Interviews with more than a dozen campaign officials and allies reveal a deep distrust of leadership, questions over payments to consultants and celebrities, as well as anger over what they say was a pervasive lack of transparency over finances and analytics. The sources were granted anonymity to speak about internal campaign dynamics.

even the campaign didnt trust the dnc and we should either considering that they still don't believe that they did anything wrong after losing all three branches.

Like how the GOP crumbled after two Obama losses to put in a ‘populist’ in Trump, the DNC should fold over, kick out the donors, fire everyone & let the populist movement Bernie really kicked off take over, & let Bernie lead it while he has the vigor to do the leading but not run for presidency. Neocons on both sides should be exiled (lol at taking the Cheney endorsement). A wave of young voters & workers would love to see such a populist overthrow of the establishment (even if they don’t yet understand that what they really want is to overthrow capitalism).

Instead the DNC will adopt the Haskell programming language motto: avoid success at all costs.

I misread secrecy as sorcery and got excited for a moment.

same here; "clashes, confusion and sorcery ..." sounds like a fantastic title. lol

The only possible cool thing to come from this, sorcery.
