Debbie Was Inches From A Clean Getaway

Oh my how the heads are exploding in Philadelphia.  The devastating WikiLeaks data dump of DNC emails has created turmoil within Democrat ranks and sent them into crisis management mode.  Desperate to quell the uproar, the Clinton campaign has “explicitly accused the Russians of being on Team Trump and suggested that Trump might be on Team Russia” according to one über-liberal website.
Following the WikiLeaks dump of over 19,000 emails from the Democratic National Committee, Twitter quickly censored the trending #DNCLeaks.  With over 251,000 Tweets circulating revelations of DNC favoritism they all disappeared for about 20 minutesThe Washington Examiner reported the censorship and the trend reappeared but with significantly fewer Tweets.

Twitter CEO and co-founder Jack Dorsey later called allegations of censorship “false.”

He and the other co-founders have been notably silent about politics during the election cycle, but their funds suggest significant investment in the DNC.

Former CEO Dick Costolo donated US$10,000 to the DNC, as did at least one other director, and Hillary Clinton was the company’s biggest recipient of donations—over US$30,000. The vast majority of Twitter lobbyists have also come from the government, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

The censorship didn’t end there.  The New York Post reported, as the firestorm built to a crescendo, that Facebook admitted it had blocked links to the WikiLeaks trove of emails.  To combat the flagrant censorship, WikiLeaks took to Twitter giving its followers an online workaround saying, “try using https://archive.is”.

In response to the WikiLeaks charge, Facebook CSO Alex Stamos tweeted, “It’s been fixed.”

At 11:43 PM Sunday night, MSNBC’s Joy Reid tweeted:
At 1:57 AM Monday morning WikiLeaks answered her charge: 
This morning around 9:30 AM disgraced DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz was heckled at a breakfast meeting with the Florida delegation.  Some even reported she had to be whisked away by security after she spoke.
