“If you want to challenge incumbents, you’re more than free to do that, but just not as an officer of the DNC, because our job is to be neutral arbiters,” Martin said on a call with reporters on Thursday. “We can’t be both the referee and also the player at the same time. You have to make a decision.”
This MFer actually wants us to believe that the DNC hasn’t been tipping the scales in favor of incumbents this whole time?

Mr. From is the founder of the Democratic Leadership Council, a centrist organization. Mr. Galston and Ms. Kamarck are senior fellows at the Brookings Institution and were policy advisers to President Bill Clinton. Mr. Marshall is president of the Progressive Policy Institute, a moderate Democratic think tank.
…especially the NYT. I am not at all surprised this publication is pushing the opinion of that bunch as something Democrats in leadership positions should listen to or follow.
It’s one thing for centrist Democrats to spout centrist talking points, or even conservative-lite talking points. It’s a whole different thing to be repeating MAGA talking points about the Democratic Party.
If the DNC leadership successfully stops David Hogg from primarying out of touch Congressmen, then I say screw it. It’s time for a new party.
That’s just coins and stamps. We should be willing to have a discussion about it. I mean if he wants to comply with the requirments, who am I to stand in the way?
