Mora was fired soon after Bixby's story was published in the Daily Beast on Monday, according to the campaign's communications director, Mike Casca, who told the Beast, "We are running a multiracial, multigenerational campaign for justice where disgusting behavior and ugly personal attacks by our staff will not be tolerated."

But Bixby quickly became the subject of extensive online harassment from purported Sanders supporters. Bixby tweeted screenshots of thousands of text messages and voice mails he received in the hours after the story was published.

This all comes days after Sanders publicly condemned and distanced himself from online supporters, or so-called "Bernie Bros," who engage in harassment, including those who targeted the female leaders of Nevada's Culinary Union after the union criticized Sanders' Medicare for All plan.

Not saying it IS that way, but it's not ridiculous to speculate.
For the record ...

(32,640 posts)Sanders? He was briefed that Russia is supporting his campaign.
After all, this incident makes it look like he has little influence with his supporters, as he stated once that he didn't approve of harassment and bullying.

(113,091 posts)Its Trump-worthy, not Sanders-worthy.
The campaign needs to rein in the sociopath faction before it ends up representing the whole campaign.
Nobody needs them that bad.
