For months on end, my friends @JulianCastro and @CoryBooker asked for the DNC debate rules to change so that a more diverse set of candidates could appear on stage. The @DNC said no. They insisted the rules could not be changed while the campaign was in motion. This is CRAZY. https://t.co/KnDWkP4TFV
RT @JulianCastro: When @CoryBooker led an effort to change the debate thresholds, the DNC refused—saying they couldn’t benefit any candidate. It seems the only candidate they’re willing to benefit is a billionaire who’s buying his way into the race. Total mess. https://t.co/mw0MhdyjBr
RT @CoryBooker: I've been lucky to hear @ReverendWarnock preach more than once, and he has a true servant's heart. I hope to call him my colleague in the Senate soon. Please support him in his critical #GASen race by chipping in here: https://t.co/bfeJWu1627 https://t.co/0RBBj9IQFG
RT @daveweigel: Sanders campaign on DNC debate rule change: “To now change the rules in the middle of the game to accommodate Mike Bloomberg, who is trying to buy his way into the Democratic nomination, is wrong. That’s the definition of a rigged system.”
RT @JordanUhl: Fewer things better encapsulate just how beholden to big money the @DNC is than rewriting the rules to let billionaire Michael Bloomberg buy his way onto the debate stage. The Democratic establishment does not care about you and will sell you out in a heartbeat.
RT @lhfang: Bloomberg has also been hiring DNC-connected consultants, DNC platform member and superdelegate Alexandra Gallardo-Rooker now works for his campaign, also he's giving big to state Dem parties, each of which has its own slate of super delegates. https://t.co/QIiaooFjle
RT @NaomiAKlein: DNC changes debate rules so Bloomberg can buy his way in, that's how scared they are of #Bernie2020. Also: Bloomberg's bump has has zero to do with popular support - the same thing would happen to a russet potato with $150-million of TV ads behinds it. https://t.co/9MMHtnFFbf
RT @ggreenwald: Next step is to set a price for Bloomberg to pay to officially change the name to the “Mike Bloomberg DNC.” Remember all the bullshit about how rigidly set the rules were & changes were impossible to permit people like Cory Booker, Castro & Tulsi to participate? https://t.co/MvKkRbgBwd
RT @EmmaVigeland: So now that Bernie Sanders is the frontrunner, the DNC is changing its debate rules mid-primary, eliminating the small donor threshold to let Bloomberg buy his way onto the stage. Bloomberg’s surrogates are openly admitting he’s running as a Sanders spoiler. Here we go again. https://t.co/WqGTuQijKo
RT @NomikiKonst: 1. DNC members didn’t vote on this, or any of the debate rules. 2. Every candidate and every donor who gave to that candidate who played by the rules (to date) should voice outrage at Tom Perez. 3. Perez will never be Governor of MD by doing this https://t.co/p0HEXmoukR
RT @GravelInstitute: Mike Gravel qualified for the Democratic debate with a grassroots surge that gave him 67,000 donors. The DNC shut him out. Mike Bloomberg spent $180 million on a massive ad campaign, donated $250,000 to the DNC, and has exactly 1 donor. The DNC let him debate. Fuck the DNC.
