Bernie has just obtained a hard to get permit for high profile rally in Manhattan eve of Apr 14!

Wonder where it is?


"Meanwhile, Sanders’ event schedule was filling up, with Sanders scheduling high-profile rallies at major locations throughout the city, including in downtown Brooklyn and Manhattan, and some outdoors. Sanders received a difficult-to-obtain permit for a high-profile rally in a coveted Manhattan space on the evening of April 14 which has yet to be publicly announced.

The Clinton campaign pushed for an April 4 date at Hofstra University sponsored by the local station NY 1, but Sanders aides mocked that proposal, saying it was the same date as an NCAA tournament game. “The idea that they want a debate in New York on a night of the NCAA finals—with Syracuse in the tournament no less—is ludicrous,” said Briggs in a statement.

The Sanders campaign proposed April 13 as a possible debate date, sources confirmed."

Yet she portrays herself as a Climate Change Advocate in the interview with Chuck Todd today!
