It's a made up charge Renew Deal May 2016 #40

No link in the Sanders press release to Politico. Why is that? Buzz Clik May 2016 #2

Not sure really but it shouldn't be hard to find. nt NWCorona May 2016 #5

Thank you. And reading the article demonstrates, as predicted, that Weaver lied. Buzz Clik May 2016 #14

And vice versa nt NWCorona May 2016 #17

Vice versa? No opportunity to apply that to this situation. Buzz Clik May 2016 #20

If Hillary were doing anything wrong, he should. But she isn't. pnwmom May 2016 #26

I haven't formed an option on the money laundering claim as I haven't really looked at that NWCorona May 2016 #27

The data gathering and other DNC activities are a great help to down ticket Dems. nt pnwmom May 2016 #29

I'm not denying that. nt NWCorona May 2016 #30
