CNN is on the case:

Of course, this is CNN, so I don't know if the twenty-second audio clip with 1000 views they have right below this is what they're talking about, but in that clip Joan Kato just tells them to stay in the convention hall no matter what, never saying "take over" or "revolution" or any of the other words spoken.

Of course, CNN could be referring to two different audio tapes they have, but this is CNN and it's trash, so take it with a huge mountain of salt until they actually post their "take over" audio.

kos at Daily Kos rips into Sanders over his pathetic "statement."  

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2016/5/17/1527598/-Amazing-Bernie-Sanders-still-can-t-tell-his-most-crazed-supporters-to-stop-acting-like-Trump-goons

As someone who did not vote for Sanders in the Primary but respected the spirit of what he was trying to accomplish, this was a leadership test and he failed badly.  Are violence and death threats now part of a "positive campaign?"  

I'm glad Elizabeth Warren didn't run.  Running for President usually results in the candidate making big and unpleasant compromises to their integrity.  Hillary accepted that long ago and Sanders has now sunk into a moral quagmire.  At least someone in the party can still speak with moral authority.

Kos declared Hillary the nominee over 2 years ago and has been trashing Bernie nonstop, so who cares what he thinks?

That's right, everyone knows that whoever doesn't grovel before King Sanders is a corporate sellout and/or a fascist.

Real Violence. The war in Iraq which Clinton voted for despite strong arguments from her colleagues that it would be a mistake.

So I just watched Nina Turner on Tamron Hall and now she's blaming the media for not covering an alleged shoot up at one of his offices in Nevada? That's the first time I've heard about that. Are the Sanders people now making up stories to distract from the real stories (their bohemian behavior at the convention).

Yeah it's weird that this is the first time we're hearing about the Sanders campaign office in Nevada getting shot at. Not that I'm accusing him of making it up but it'd be interesting to see the police report for it.

I really do hope it wasn't politically motivated and it was that the perpetrator got caught (or even if it wasn't politically inspired).

So apparently back in January, a bullet hole was discovered in the storefront window of his campaign office.  Cops couldn't say when a shot might have been fired, nor did they find a bullet, meaning that evidently nobody was around at all when it happened.  Their office is in a fairly shady part of town, so it's also possible it was there before they even moved in.

Including it in the statement almost implies that somehow Clinton and her campaign are responsible? Just mystifying as to why it was included in the statement at all when it has nothing to do with what happened at the Nevada State Convention.

I think that calls for a congressional investigation of Hillary.

Jfern's narrative ahead of the convention has suddenly shifted from "you Hillbots have alienated us; watch and weep as all of Bernie's delegates walk out of the convention en masse" to "how dare the corrupt DNC throw out Bernie's legitimately elected delegates? If they didn't want chairs to be thrown around they should have fixed them to the floor; the DNC only have themselves to blame."

No chairs were thrown just like no one chanted English only. Baghdad Bob had more credibility than Nevada Hillary hacks.

I'm talking about the DNC in Philly.

I am all Bernie until the end, but my fellow supporters need to be ready to support Hillary to save America from Trump and return the Supreme Court to the left. I don't like Hillary, but the alternative the right is offering is far, far worse.

What does the lie about chairs being thrown in Nevada have to do with the convention?

99.9 percent of what jfern posts is untrue because it becomes from the fantasy land of BernieOrBust.

Kos is hardly alone.  Sanders has been blasted across progressive media and the progressive blogosphere for this.

There's more.

Walsh has harsh words not only for wannabe messiah Sanders, but also our pathetic joke of a DNC chair, Debbie Wasserman Schutz.

Sanders began this campaign claiming that he didn't want to be another Ralph Nader but with his continuous slams against the Democratic Party (and over process issues, not the policy issues his campaign was supposed to be about) that is exactly who he is starting to resemble.  Still, it is not yet too late.  Sanders needs to do some hard thinking about his legacy.  What is Ralph Nader's reputation today?
