DNC chair won't speak at Dem convention following Wikileaks fallout

The head of the Democratic National Committee will not speak at the party's convention next week, a decision reached by party officials Saturday after emails surfaced that raised questions about the committee's impartiality during the Democratic primary.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz, whose stewardship of the DNC has been under fire through most of the presidential primary process, will not have a major speaking role in an effort "to keep the peace" in the party, a Democrat familiar with the decision said. The revelation comes following the release of nearly 20,000 emails

Debbie Wasserman-Schultz has been set aside because of the Hillaryleaks.

That is going to be played to ad nauseam all over the MSM until election day. The Trump supporters are really in denial to the fact that Trump is pulling the wool over their eyes.

WikiLeaks trove plunges Democrats into crisis on eve of Convention
July 23 2016

• Paul McGeough

Washington: On the eve of the convention at which Hillary Clinton is to be confirmed as presidential candidate, the Democratic Party has been plunged into crisis – the US media is brimful of ugly and embarrassing stories from within the party's head office, all based on 20,000 emails dropped on Friday evening by the anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks.

It appears DNC Conventions is being overshadowed by the "Hillary Leaks" and now there are reports of more leaky situations ahead.

Leaked DNC Documents Show Plans To Reward Big Donors With Federal Appointments

Chuck Ross
11:17 PM 07/24/2016

Democratic National Committee documents recently released by WikiLeaks include spreadsheets and emails that appear to show party officials planning which donors and prominent fundraisers to provide with appointments to federal boards and commissions.
The documents, which were circulated among top DNC officials in April, could raise legal questions for the party, says Ken Boehm, the chairman of the National Legal and Policy Center, a government watchdog group.

The records, which WikiLeaks released along with nearly 20,000 hacked DNC emails and other documents on Friday, also expose one of the Beltway’s worst kept secrets: that wealthy politicos can often buy their way to presidential appointments.

President Obama has been criticized for appointing dozens of top fundraisers — called “bundlers” in the political fundraising realm — to ambassadorships and other cushy federal positions. The spreadsheet — which was accompanied by emails sent between officials with the DNC’s finance team — contains 23 names of little-known corporate executives and professional fundraisers who have donated to the committee and various Democratic political action committees.

“Boards and Commissions” spreadsheet contained in DNC records. (Redactions added by The Daily Caller)

The proposed appointments also provide more evidence that the DNC favored Clinton over her former primary challenger, Bernie Sanders.
Most of the donors listed on the spreadsheet have given to Clinton’s campaign. None gave to Sanders.

Democrats on Monday struggled to contain the chaos that threatened to take hold in Philadelphia, as Debbie Wasserman Schultz bowed out of plans to gavel in the Democratic National Convention and restless Bernie Sanders' supporters lashed out.

As I said to Danke in a rep message, "RNC was last week. DNC is this week. Misery is not optional."

Yea things can be cyclical.
"RNC Dark Convention" bounce is this week (Hillary lags in battleground States now), "DNC Election Rigging Convention" bounce will be next week.
