BOOOM!! DNC chair Debbie Wassherface Schultz has been ousted from presiding over the Democrat convention because of the revelations in the emails leaked by Wikileaks!!
Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz has been ousted from her convention role, Fox News confirmed Sunday, after leaked emails indicating an anti-Bernie Sanders bias in her operation inflamed the left flank of the party.
Fox News has learned she will not preside over the convention set to start Monday, following pressure from the White House and Hillary Clinton campaign.
This comes amid reports that Wasserman Schultz also will have no speaking role at the convention.
The committee has not confirmed that publicly; however, her name is nowhere to be found on the list of speakers. And she was slated to make opening remarks at a rules committee meeting Saturday, but never showed up.
The rapid-fire set of developments ahead of the Philadelphia convention kick-off indicate a party in crisis management mode as officials try to prevent anger over the email leak controversy and other issues from disrupting proceedings. The emails only bolstered claims from Sanders – and Republican nominee Donald Trump – that the system was rigged against the Vermont senator.
Sanders himself blasted the DNC and Wasserman Schultz in interviews Sunday, demanding her resignation as party chairwoman to boot.
Wow.
She’s been pummeled on the Sunday News shows, and it was earlier reported that she wasn’t speaking at the convention but now it looks like she won’t even be swinging the gavel a the shindig. But will she be fired as many are demanding? We’ll have to wait and see…
