This is unsubstantiated, but people with inside information cited pressure from donors as a reason why WFP endorsed Warren in a profoundly undemocratic, secretive way. WFP still refuses to release the actual vote tally between Warren & Sanders.https://twitter.com/cdrosa/status/1173622863796015104?s=21 …

As has been widely reported, WFP gave its leadership (a few dozen people) 50% of the vote, and gave the other 50% to its membership (tens of thousands). Draw your own conclusions, but this looks to me like insiders leveraging money to overrule the will of the people. Not good!

Being the Board Chair of Demos, Warren’s daughter is absolutely in a position to influence where donations go, and more importantly, where they don’t. This sort of back room dealing has been endemic to the Democratic Party for decades.

I also noticed that Warren’s daughter was removed from Demos’ website in the days since WFP’s endorsement. She’s listed as Board Chair in their tax filings, but she was scrubbed from their Board of Trustees page. When I looked @ Demos’ site in August, she was on there. Weird!

I’m not making any specific allegations of wrongdoing, but given the totality of the circumstances, this looks bad. WFP definitely owes its members (and the broader left) some answers on if/how money influenced its endorsement process.

There’s an incestuous donor network that underwrites much of Democratic Party politics. This should not be news to anyone. They shape politics with their money, and the grassroots left is now vying for their influence. Suspend your naïveté, look at who’s paying who, and ask why.

I already did a deep dive into Amelia Warren Tyagi’s consulting firm, and its ties to the healthcare/pharmaceutical industries. To date, both this and the Demos story have been ignored by the media.https://twitter.com/cancel_sam/status/1167538466080604167?s=21 …

If you’re skeptical about this being shady, consider: when you google “Amelia Warren + Demos” this is the first result. If you click the link, though, Amelia Warren Tyagi is no longer listed. The search results don’t reflect that yet, because it’s a very recent alteration.pic.twitter.com/7KXmYjcgD6
