The truth about the deal.

"WASHINGTON — The Democratic National Committee struck a deal with Hillary Clinton in 2015 that gave her campaign input on some party hiring and spending decisions, but required they be related only to preparations for the general election, according to a memo obtained by NBC News. It also left the door open for other candidates to make similar arrangements.

The document provides more context to the explosive claims made by former DNC Interim Chair Donna Brazile in a forthcoming book, an excerpt of which was published this week. "

There's too much at stake to be fighting about 2016. People on the other side win when we are divided.

Time to let go of the chip on the shoulder. Get united with the Dem party and candidates or shut up.

Trump certainly jumped on it for a new round of Hillary bashing and threatening the FBI and DOJ. I am so tired of it. You would think that Dems would be motivated to let go of old grudges about the last primary. They seem to resent bring told to get with program of defeating Trump and his merry band of neo-Nazis. Some dividers would rather cling to their egos than advocate unity.

Need to go to town on her. What she has done may have caused huge damage to the wings of the party, not to mention the Virginia race.
