Democratic Presidential Candidate Bernie Sanders Meets With African-American Civic Leaders In Baltimore

Bernie Sanders and his campaign are suing the Democratic National Committee. The DNC accused Sanders of “illicitly accessing Clinton data.” Sanders’ campaign manager Jeff Weaver explained: “We are announcing today that if the DNC continues to hold our data hostage, and continues to try to attack the heart and soul of our campaign, we will be in federal court this afternoon seeking an immediate injunction. The leadership of the Democratic National Committee is now actively attempting to undermine our campaign. This is unacceptable. Individual leaders of the DNC can support Hillary Clinton in any way they want, but they are not going to sabotage our campaign — one of the strongest grassroots campaigns in modern history.” Read more about the lawsuit here.
