NEW YORK – Bernie may have been on to something.
The former interim chief of the Democratic National Committee opened up about the financial turmoil within the organization as well as the heartbreak she experienced when she uncovered evidence indicating Hillary Clinton commandeered the committee well before she nabbed the presidential nomination.
In an excerpt from her upcoming book “Hacks: The Inside Story of the Break-ins and Breakdowns that Put Donald Trump in the White House” featured by Politico, Donna Brazile recalled investigating the DNC following a series of hacked emails suggested Clinton hijacked the party.
Following Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s July resignation ahead of the 2016 national convention, Brazile stepped in to helm the Democratic Party. In a matter of months she found the evidence against the Clinton campaign she hoped she never would.
“By September 7, the day I called Bernie, I had found my proof and it broke my heart,” she wrote, referring to Clinton’s rival, Sen. Bernie Sanders.
