    DNC is hiding is trying to sabotage the DNC because neoliberals don’t control it anymore

    Just because they put Ken Martin in as chair doesn’t mean that the DNC isn’t being controlled by neoliberals…

    First of all, the chair of the party when the party isn’t in control of Congress has very little control of the party itself. They are mostly responsible for fundraising and organizing at the state and local level.

    Secondly, the Minnesota DFL isnt really much different from the democratic party itself, especially in recent years. That is unless you are claiming people like Amy Klobuchar do not qualify as neoliberals.

    Martin said he give it to DNC members, that’s not voters. That s literally the ~400 voting members of the DNC.

    “Around the 2024 election, Martin committed to publicly releasing a 2024 campaign post-mortem, which the DNC did not do after the 2016 election. He refused to release a 2024 campaign report in 2025 and 2026.”

    are the neoliberals that don’t run the DNC (who still likely have it) and billionaire owned media (who have also likely seen a copy)

    Pretty sure that people here are count as people criticizing him for this while not being neoliberals or billionaires.

    They just want to get people to abstain in the next presidential primary so a neoliberal like Newspm can sneak in.

    Why would it behove the billionaire owned media to release the report that is most likely critical of their influence over the DNC? How would that help Gavin Newsome?

    It’s blatant manipulation, why can’t everyone see this?

    You are pinning your entire argument on the idea that the chair person of the DNC is significantly different from the people who placed him in the position in the first place, and that he has the power to significantly shape the party.

    That would be like me claiming Kamala Harris wasn’t a neolib because she chose Tim Waltz as her running mate.

    I will admit Ken Martin is seemingly more left than the actual leadership in the DNC(not a hard thing to do). However, he does not have the power to shape the party in a meaningful way. Most chairs barely make it 3 years before being replaced, and I doubt Martin is going to make it that long considering how poorly the DNC is fundraising and being marketed.
