If Bernie Sanders’ supporters were upset before when hacked and published emails revealed that the Democratic Party conspired to propel Hillary Clinton to the party’s nomination — with the blessing of former DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz — they’re livid now.
After resigning from her position as chairwoman, Wasserman Schultz gave the Sanders supporters the ultimate middle finger by joining the Clinton team as her campaign’s nationwide “honorary chair.”
After DNC emails — hacked by GUCCIFER 2.0 and published by WikiLeaks — revealed the party’s involvement in the Clinton campaign, Wasserman Schultz eventually resigned.
In a statement released Sunday, Wasserman Schultz said that she’ll still open and close the national convention beginning Monday and “address our delegates about the stakes involved in this election not only for Democrats, but for all Americans.”

However, “going forward, the best way for me to accomplish those goals is to step down as Party Chair at the end of this convention.
In a statement released by Clinton, the former secretary of state revealed that Wasserman Schultz would join her campaign as honorary chairman.

Hillary Clinton’s showy rewarding of corruption by DWS is an ill wind for the corruption-overton-window of a future presidency.
