Read the whole thing for a good time, but here's a synopsis:
Claims of current bias for Clinton creating an inability for Frank or Malloy to be neutral, including a "personal hostility" towards Sanders. Accuses Barney Frank of DECADES of hating Sanders, as well as previous defamation. Claims Frank will be incapable of showing basic respect for Sanders' supporters. Catalogues his statements dating back to 1991.
Accuses Malloy of openly defaming Sanders by comparing him to Trump and falsely representing Sanders' position on the Brady Bill. Claims Malloy will be antagonistic of Sanders' supporters due to these biases.
Presents an overarching claim that the DNC is injuring not only Sanders and his supporters, but also its own party unity with these two serving on this committee. Requests their replacement on these grounds.
HOLY SHIT. Thanks for stating what we all have been thinking and/or saying. Also, fascinating to read how long Frank has held animus towards Sanders. And really interesting to see this challenge to the DNC to "maintain party unity"… from Sanders. Very bold words and a fierce challenge to them. Hopefully they will consider that they are up not only against Sanders but his supporters, who have won twenty states now and represent 45%+ of all Democratic voters… who could vote the DNC members out in DROVES if they so choose in the next election cycles.
