1. Finally someone with some cred I can trust

To lay out what happened and why. Thanks for the OP

[LovingA2andMI]

3. Exactly....

[Baobab]

22. she is a former Ohio State Senator

Don't mis attribute current senator-ship to her!

She's a great lady, though, I am sure that she will hold public office again.

15. + 100 Nina Turner is one of America's finest politicians.

[Gregorian]

2. We were hoping for this in a video chat this morning. Good.

Thank you. I'll pass this on.

[LovingA2andMI]

4. No Problem!

Thanks for the share.

[2banon]

5. Great! Didn't know there was an "independent underground" radio

yay!

[LovingA2andMI]

7. Since 2010, we have been podcasting...

Our show is available on Blog Talk Radio -- LIVE (soon moving permanently in June 2016 to the Spreaker Network) iTunes, Stitcher, Tune In Radio and Player FM.

Thanks for asking.

[senz]

16. Thank you!

I use my iPod every day but had not known about this podcast.

Thanks so much!

6. She was on with Benjamin Dixon yesterday

Good interview, I would have asked a few more questions myself.

[LovingA2andMI]

8. With the "New" Information....

Regarding the supposed "Threats" to Roberta Lange, we plan on asking questions seeking to get to the meat and potatoes of "What Happened in Vegas, as we watched the event foil all day on Social Media on Saturday.

[SandersDem]

9. There

was no rush to the stage, people came up to the barricades and yelled calling unfair, etc.. there were obscenities, but with a motion on the floor and Lange's actions at destroying Democracy, who can blame them. Anyone after making threats of physical harm, well shame on them. Threats to remove her from the Chair, that is a valid call.

[senz]

17. Hill supporters have done something horrible with this.

They have spun serious election theft into an outrageous and very dishonest attack on Bernie supporters.

I finally realized WHY they have attacked us so dishonestly and blatantly this past year: they're trying not only to invalidate Bernie but to make voters not want to be part of his supporters -- because we're all such bad people.

I hope honest journalists will tell the truth about the 2016 Democratic primary. It has been a blight on U.S. politics.

[JudyM]

19. Whatever they can do to bring us to heel. It is clearly time for an uprising, in light of this

latest, flagrant denial of representation.

[LovingA2andMI]

23. Exactly....

We as Sanders Supporters should not take this Spun Media BS lying down.

[SandersDem]

10. Oh

and I look forward to listening.

[SandersDem]

11. by the way

there were rumors that Nina had returned with Bernie's Lawyers. I don't think that is correct based on what I watched and saw, but do not know. This would be a great question for her.

[LovingA2andMI]

13. Thanks!

I never witnessed the Attorney's either. As for the calls to remove the Chair, that is valid per Roberts Rules of Order, if the Chair is not responding to valid motions on the floor. For what I saw, she was not. Likewise, calling the meeting to close with motions on the Floor is a violation of Robert's Rules completely -- which was done at the end of the meeting.

Roberta Lange let her emotions play beyond her role as the Chair. It appears she is trying to "save face" as a result and we plan on asking Senator Turner about this in particular.

[JudyM]

20. Good. I am most interested to know whether there is any recourse for the Sanders delegates.

[TeeYiYi]

18. Rec! and LOVE Nina Turner...

Thank you.

TYY

[jillan]

12. I dare Maddow to interview Nina on what happened, since Nina was there. nt

[senz]

14. Oh that would be PERFECT. Maybe we can find ways to push it?

Wonderful, wonderful idea, jillan.

[JudyM]

21. +1. Some coverage of the real transgression would be nice for a change.

[LovingA2andMI]

24. Maddow Cannot...

MSNBillClinton Network will not let her, and she is fine with that -- she they pay her handsomely.

[silvershadow]

25. If she weren't married...

[raging moderate]

26. Yay, Nina Turner!

She really knows a lot of facts about the issues of our day, and nothing fazes her.

[Fawke Em]

27. I wish she'd visit the MSM and set them straight.

Of course, they won't want to report what she has to say.

[LovingA2andMI]

28. To The Bernie Supporter that asked on DU...

If Lawyers were called into the Nevada Convention by either the Sanders Campaign and/or State Senator Turner, she confirmed during our interview no, they were not.

Great interview and feel free to listen into the archive file if you missed it here: http://j.mp/IURL51716

Also, we thank State Senator Turner for visiting Independent Underground Radio LIVE.

[LovingA2andMI]

29. LESS THAN 10 minutes after we completed this interview...

AND read the statement of Senator Sanders on-the-air, guess who appears on CNN --- That Woman --- Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Interesting as hell, indeed. Interesting....
