Political scandals linger as Philly readies for convention

[Spike]

Hillary will be right at home in Philly!


Philadelphia is ready for the Democratic National Convention.

Tougher to clean up and shine, however, is the state’s political image, tarnished by recent political corruption cases that have implicated many Democrats across the state.

—In June, a longtime Philadelphia congressman, Chaka Fattah, was convicted of laundering federal grants and nonprofit funds to repay an illegal $1 million campaign loan and help family and friends.

—Last year, former state Treasurer Rob McCord left office and pleaded guilty to attempted extortion in a campaign fundraising scandal.

—Attorney General Kathleen Kane is awaiting trial on charges that she unlawfully leaked secret grand jury material to a newspaper and then lied about it under oath.

And those are just the high profile cases.

The former sheriff of Philadelphia has been charged with conspiracy; traffic judges have been convicted of ticket-fixing; state lawmakers have admitted taking bribes.

Funny thing is, the only protesters at the Dem convention will be Bernie's people because the Republicans all have jobs to go to.

RIOT! Bernie-bots RIOT!

Protesters prepare to flood Philadelphia for convention

Tens of thousands of protesters from across the country are descending on the Democratic National Convention, preparing to test months of planning by law enforcement officials.

Philadelphia Mayor James Kenney’s office estimates that up to 50,000 protesters will be in the city per day, with many in FDR Park — directly across the street from the Wells Fargo Center.

Much of the action will come from fervent supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who argue it’s not too late for the senator to grab the presidential nomination from Hillary Clinton at the 11th hour. “We can still win this,” said Billy Taylor, who is organizing pro-Sanders protests around the convention.

“We’re not going to vote for the demon named Hillary. … We stand with the honorable man. We’re not standing with the Democrats.”

According to a list of approved protest permits from the Philadelphia mayor’s office, Sanders supporters — including Occupy DNC and Black Men for Bernie — have events planned for each day of the convention.

Taylor said supporters of his organization — Philly.FYI — are planning to occupy and potentially camp in FDR Park throughout the week.

There will be no shortage of theatrics as activists, many of whom vow to never support Clinton, gather outside of the convention.

Taylor said they will deliver a coffin carrying voter “de-registration” petitions to the convention Thursday.

“It’s a sign that the party’s dead to us,” he said, noting the coffin will be at FDR Park throughout the week.

BREAKING: Hillary Clinton Brings Disgraced DNC Chair Onto Her Campaign

July 24, 2016

Mere hours after Debbie Wasserman Schultz resigned as chair of the DNC, Hillary Clinton has already given her a high ranking position in her campaign.

Schultz resigned after Wikileaks released emails that showed her team showed a clear bias for Clinton over Bernie Sanders during the Democratic primaries, with DNC CFO Brad Marshall going so far as to suggest attacking his faith in Bible belt states Kentucky and West Virginia.

In an official statement, Clinton praised Wasserman Schultz without mentioning the email scandal, commending her “hard work and leadership.” Wasserman Schultz’s new job will be to act as honorary chairman of the Clinton campaign’s “50-state” program

Nothing like a big slap in the face to Bernie Supporters right before the start

Sanders being disenfranchised will hurt as something like 22% of his base will NEVER vote for Hillary. Now that a scandal has broken out where the DNC is guilty to dirty tricks and foul play. The never Hillary crowd among requested Democrats can go higher than 22%. With Trump in the lead, this could be the watershed moment of the 2016 election.

The other problem is Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Most of the USA is not aware of who she is, and she isn't very impressive live.

Woo-wee!


Berning with anger, protesters take to Philly streets ahead of Dem convention

Mad at the Democratic establishment and an electoral process many protesters called "rigged," thousands of demonstrators took to the streets in support of fighting the Democratic Party's presumptive nominee.

"I am angry, I'm angry at the Democratic establishment," said Corey Collier, an organizer for activist umbrella organization Philly.FYI. The motivation for the march, he said, was "watching democracy be blatantly undermined in our faces."

They chanted: "Hell no, DNC, we won't vote for Hillary" and "This is what democracy looks like."

I don't think many Bernie-bots will vote for Trump but they will stay home.

 

[Spike]

Go Bernie!

hahahahaha

It's ALL RIGGED!

Just like Trump's been saying

 

[Coach]

I don't think many Bernie-bots will vote for Trump but they will stay home.

Never underestimate the spitefulness of the extreme left.

[Coach]

20,000 people were matching in 100+ degree heat.

Boos at the convention.

The DNC true colors are revealed. Dirty tricks. Trying to use Sanders ethnicity against him. Cracking gay jokes. Rigging the game. Oh, they'll take your money than laugh at you in what they thought was a private setting.

The Bill Maher's of the media should pounce on this disgrace...but they won't.

Progressives and liberals should be outraged! Your vote doesn't count, and your party will never let a non- corrupted person with liberal views become the party nominee for President.

I suggest you form your own party, just like Canada did, which has two separate Democratic parties.

We all have jobs to go to and don't have time for that stuff.
