Activists Confront DNC about Biden, Manipulation of Primaries
The Democratic National Committee “Winter meeting” is taking place in Philadelphia from Feb. 2 to 4. A mobile billboard declaring “Don’t Manipulate the Primaries” will be circling the hotel and activists will be leafleting.
This is part of the Don’t Run Joe campaign, which has begun a grassroots push from Democratic constituents telling the party’s members of Congress to go public with growing alarm about President Biden’s reported intention to run for re-election.
Democrats in the House and Senate have received thousands of emails from constituents who urged them to “stop muffling genuine concerns and start being honest about the pivotal downsides of a prospective Biden ’24 candidacy,” according to the Don’t Run Joe campaign, which is sponsored by RootsAction.org.
The group has also slammed Biden’s move to reorder primaries as a “self-serving intervention” to help him win renomination.

Apart from its constructive contributions to media comprehensiveness and accuracy, for individuals who are seeking a better understanding of evolving world events IPA has been an incomparable source of critically important news that had escaped notice or received inadequate or misleading coverage, as well as acute analysis that is hard to find or completely missing in the mainstream. Speaking personally, I have found it invaluable as a source of insight and information, and for leads to pursue that I would otherwise have missed."[more]
