The Story the DNC is Refusing to Tell
Public reporting, internal complaints, and staff experiences within the DNC tell a more complex story than the one being promoted.
I am not an anomaly. What I witnessed and experienced was not unique to me. This is my truth, and nothing but.
After the 2024 election, reporting described DNC staff as feeling warned and pressured to keep quiet about their experiences, fearing that speaking out could jeopardize future political opportunities.
Naturally, these warnings intimidated people.
I totally empathize with that feeling. I’ve been there—scared into submission by abusers or unethical actors—far too many times.
But now, I’m too old—and too fucking tired of being silenced when speaking out against injustice—to let this go.
The DNC has continued to push a narrative about the reason the 2024 election was lost, while leaving out significant accusations and official reports. That is objectively the definition of lying by omission.
They left out so many other things, like:
The parts about how staff consistently complained of racism, bias, and mistreatment.
The complaints about the mismanagement of campaign funds, and acceptance of dark money (or a further look into those claims to prove otherwise).
The complaints from organizers and volunteers who felt hindered or prevented from doing their jobs adequately and to the fullest of their abilities.
One glaring point my friend, Walter, recently made in a note—
Using Kamala as a scapegoat for the election loss because of her stance on the genocide occurring in Gaza (and specificity matters because there is more than one right now) makes absolutely no logical sense.
The majority of the Democratic establishment is supporting a genocide that the United States is actively funding—if we’re talking numbers and data, that is a fact.
Please read this linked article by Notus, which does a thorough job of laying out the bigger picture.
The campaign was an emotional rollercoaster for many of us—myself included—a collective sentiment that I feel comfortable saying was shared by many, if not most.
And I think that many of you with whom I’ve connected understand my frustration. It’s very hard—impossible, really—for me to observe or sit through injustice.
I cannot stand injustice.
We deserve truth and transparency from every person who is in charge of influencing decisions that shape the trajectory and quality of our lives.
If an establishment, as a whole, is going to call itself a party for the people, it has to lead by example. Just because they’re “winning elections” does not mean their overall likability is higher. They know that. That is a manipulation tactic—stonewalling.
The only reason they are “winning” elections right now (taking credit for it is wildly delusional) is because Donald Trump and his regime represent one of the most serious threats to the country since its “founding.”
Lest we forget the most historic contradiction of its founding—the "founding" itself.
This does not give them a pass on responsibility or accountability.
Because that is the very same thing that we—the “good guys,” I guess (for lack of a better term in these times), are accusing Republicans of doing.
As Sen. Cory Booker once said:
“This is not a left or right moment. It is a right or wrong moment.”
So, when will the Democratic establishment be ready to meet that moment? The hour is getting late.
So many people miss the fact that Putin's propaganda machine put out attacks on HRC (her emails) and Harris (Gaza). And they still cannot see the reality. I say all that because the DNC must release the autopsy in order to dispel the propaganda. If they continue to withhold it, they are actively supporting Putin's propaganda machine. There is no other way to cut this.
