Hogg has really pissed off and frightened the status quo.

Please see my post #3..

The system is attempting to rebalance itself by removing the person who is creating the imbalance- in this case, Hogg.

If she received a $200 campaign contribution from a wealthy person that's proof she's a corruption monster paid to tease nice Justice Democrats types who just want to fix America by destroying the true threat to progress, the Democratic Party.

to the song and dance "The Establishment is Terrified" so beloved by conspiracy theory audiences.

The DNC is a long established system, with entrenched “traditions” and ways of doing things that have not been allowed to be questioned for decades.

Hogg (and Kenyatta) is an intruder into this established system, and his outspoken activism has caused an unbalancing of the DNC’s established system. As is common with all systems, whether governments, businesses, or family units, change is resisted, and often the change agent, in this case Hogg, becomes a lightning rod for blame, anger, criticism, and ultimately, expulsion from the system. This is the established system seeking what is called homeostasis, or a return to balance, without making any substantive change.

This is basic Systems Theory.

Oftentimes, a system’s push for homeostasis results in just plain stasis, or inactivity/immobilization. Stasis is the opposite of what the DNC needs right now.

What the DNC, and their voting base, needs right now is activation and mobilization.

But that would require change, and that might make people who are used to being comfortable and working within familiar and predictable conditions, it might make them uncomfortable.

With an ivy league eduction.

Kudos everyone!

I don't think she has plans to spend money to primary D if she were a vc for dnc.

"status quo".

TY

and already thought it was unbalanced. I think all the vc and chair are men, maybe one woman. I have forgotten now.

DNC.

Snip~

the status quo.

I don’t disagree.

Trying to do DNC AND Leaders We Deserve at same time just isn't viable. He needs to pick on and back off the other.

The #1 objective should be for Democrats (or Democratic-leaning Independents) to take back the house and the senate.

Don't compare Grant to Hogg.

Americans. And for the women in general.

I admit it.

Looks like she'd be a Worthy Addition to the DNC.

Trump’s win shows Native Americans are changing their political leanings

Political pundits were stunned by Donald Trump’s strong support among people of color — a surge that helped sweep him to the White House and a popular vote victory. However, while attention has focused on Trump’s improvement among Black and Hispanic voters, the group where Trump scored his most significant win?
Native Americans.
Exit polling from NBC News found Trump won 65 percent of the vote from “American Indians” (the term used by the pollsters), compared to 57 percent of votes from White Americans.

“As tribal leaders, we’re just trying to take care of our own people,” former Navajo Nation Vice President Myron Lizer said. “We’re tired of the same old, and there’s a lot of people in our movement.”

“Similar to polls conducted nationwide among the general population, the Native News Online survey shows that Native voters are concerned about the high prices of everyday goods,” the website reported. “Inflation was the top issue, followed by jobs and the overall economy. The third top issue was Native American issues.”

This gives even more of a reason to be more inclusive of them. We need them back on our team. You would think they would be more concerned about the environment and against pipelines, drilling and fracking. Apparently, the Republicans were going into reservations and “working them” promising all kinds of things which they most likely are not going to do.

this all means - surprised she didn't challenge it way back then but then all this anti Hogg tweeting wasn't happening then so I guess in some way it makes sense.

She filed her appeal on 28feb

Dnc seems to move slowly because it was only announced recently that there will be a hearing about it now.

No surprise that Hogg and Free have opposite views on whether the DNC election was per the rules or not.

be successful. IF the rules in place at the time of the elections were not followed, then of course she is entitled to a fair and legal remedy.

IF the rules in place at the time of the election were not followed, that is a very bad look for the parts of the DNC that were in charge of running those elections.

get their due process and will both get to make their case.

but it seems he's going the exact same route and processing leverage just as so many others before him have.

David Hogg is going to hurt the party attacking democratic candidates

If he truly supports d imo he would put the money to fighting R candidates not attacking any d candidates. I hope she prevails too.

I hope she prevails, too.

All the talk about "democracy" and "fair elections" would look hypocritical.

Are you accusing her of trying to steal the election?
