WikiLeaks releases hacked Democratic Party voicemails

However, three recordings are of an unnamed woman ranting about her distaste for Senator Bernie Sanders and how the Democratic Party handled the one-time rival of Hillary Clinton, the party’s nominee for president.

Democrats are desperate to change the narrative from the contents of the emails to who hacked and released them. Chief Financial Officer Brad Marshall writes to Chief Executive Officer Amy Dacey: “It might may [sic] no difference, but for KY and WVA can we get someone to ask his belief”. “Does he believe in God”. He had skated on saying he has a Jewish heritage.

“The dumbest thing I’ve ever read”, reads the subject line of a May email sent from DNC spokesman Eric Walker to an email list. “This could make several points difference with my peeps”. Ms. Dacey responds, “AMEN”. They should exploit it right up until the election.

While Bernie Sanders responded to the DNC leaks on July 22 with a firm resolution that Debbie Wasserman-Schultz needed to resign as chair, Hillary Clinton has avoided DNC leaks questions, according to the Blaze. Mr Miranda replied: “As long as all the offensive shit is verbatim I’m fine with it”.

The fate of DNC staffers is really just a sidebar in a story focused on the discontent with Wasserman-Schultz in the months before her resignation.

One caller objected to Sanders – who until previous year was an Independent member of the Senate affiliated to the Democrats – being given a speaking slot at the national convention.

Sanders – who railed against what he called a “rigged” system throughout his campaign – has since endorsed Wasserman Schultz’s primary rival in her re-election bid, in another sign of the acrimony between them. “He’s getting way too much influence…what I see is the DNC bending over backwards for Bernie, and Bernie is the worst person in the world to even be running in the Democratic Party because he’s not a Democrat”, one message says.

“To the “Bernie or Bust” people: You’re being ridiculous”, Silverman said.
