I keep hearing how the new DNC Chair (whose name I only hear when people are telling me this) is doing things differently now and this is going to stop.

OK new DNC Chair whose name is in the news so rarely I can never remember it, it hardly seems like there could be a more fertile opportunity to stop working against progressives, so any day now.

Ken Martin has already neutered a notable progressive (David Hogg) by enforcing the neutrality of DNC officers in future primaries, while Hogg's election to Vice Chair of the DNC was invalidated months after Hogg started making waves on the grounds of "gender diversity".

Yeah, like it's not only gonna be for the one primary where they wanted to oust Hogg.
