the irony of a trumptard saying "everything is a conspiracy!!" is apparently lost on you
"THE DEEP STATE IS OUT TO GET TRUMP!"
"OBAMA IS A MUSLIM!"
"OBAMA ISNT A CITIZEN"

yes he reduced hours until they reached an agreement on increased pay so everyone would be getting 15 an hour. youre really not as a bright as you think you are, huh?

So he did reduce hours and you just went off on a cry. You would never hear me say Obama is Muslim, not a citizen, or anything about any deep fuckin state. That is for your fellow conspiratard bernie bros like viva.

No it wasn't some people decided to work more. They said the average that people worked was 60+ hours

The letter alleges that field organizers are working a minimum of 60 hours a week, bringing their actual wages down to an average of $13 an hour. The letter said “many field staffers are barely managing to survive financially, which is severely impacting our team’s productivity and morale. Some field organizers have already left the campaign as a result.”

The field organizers, not the average workers.

What do you think about the rest of the story?

 

[Sketch]

Dispute anything I just said. Bernie even went in and said they would lower the working hours to match the 15$/h, as long as negotiations where going on.

Bernie said that union negotiations should be made public is something any rational person would agree to. Of course he would be upset with something violating the trust like that. Case and point, idiots like you who fail to realise what is going on.

His staff are overworked and some have already left. He got mad because it exposes him as a scam artist. You are the ostrich with your head in the sand.

Naw, you just support Trump, without the Qanon belief, which makes you even more retarded.

You support Trump even though you don't believe in the deep state or Qanon, which makes you even more retarded then the true believers.

Everything is a conspiracy. I bet the mole was planted by the Mossad.

This doesn't make any sense.

The workers unionized. They negoiated a contract in march for a base pay. They recieved more benefits and higher pay than any other campaign. The field organizers worked above full time. Sanders wanted to change the deal with the union so people would get their base pay raised to match 60hours. The union declined. Sanders then reduced working hours to 42 so it would scale with 15$ while negotiations are going on.

Where's the scam?

Nice duck, Trump supporter, who doesn't believe a word he says.

 

[Gunny]

Show me one person who supported Bernie, saw this story, and changed there mind.

I'll wait.

You may be technically correct on this point but keep in mind that he’s currently polling in the teens. His job isn’t to keep his existing pool of supporters, it’s to massive expand it. Failing that, he will not become the nominee. TBT I think this whole thing stinks of a dirty hit job - and a potentially devastating one at that.

I'm not worried about it.

Bernie and Warren together poll well over 30%.

Biden is a can.

The rest are no names, in a contest of name recognition.

Mayor Pete is the only one i worry about, because he is polished enough to get the obama rock star treatment.

You can tell these guys not to trust a “socialist” with a summer home all you want but they don’t care, I just see them as a minority so bored with their privileges and 1st world life they just want to go against something. Basically children mentalities

no one is crying about anything, you're the one crying about campaign staffers having the best pay in the entire field. like, really? that's something to complain about???

"Bernie pays his staffers more than anyone else!!! HAH! This is it!!! We got him boys!!!"

 

[method115]

how fucking dumb do you have to be to be this easily conned by corporate propaganda???

FACTS:
-bernie sanders campaign has the highest pay in the entire game
-bernie sanders campaign is the first presidential campaign in history to unionize, which bernie encouraged and embraced
-THE MOMENT bernie heard about the 15/hour complaints he increased pay

you have to be one dumb mother fucker to see this shit and go "HAHAHAHHHA BERNIE DOESNT PRACTICE WHAT HE PREACHES!!!!"

It's not that people are dumb. There are people who just hate Bernie and the minute the MSM tells them something they want to hear about him they believe it 100% without even digging into it more. We call them sheep.

 

[chardog]

interesting, I cant believe that such low wage workers would be on salary..... why not just go per hour?

While on face, it still seems like fake news, however the fact that you overwork low level workers and put them on salary, doesnt seem right either. It's honestly the first time I've heard of such low level pay on salary, almost like it was a con job from the start.

False Flag

 

[chardog]

Complete horseshit smear tactics, but a lot of people will fall for it. Finally the establishment has something that might stick, god knows they are trying relentlessly on both sides.

Basicly they made a deal for 30k base pay for a full time position (above 15 dollars/h). Some workers decided to work more, which meant their hourly pay went down cause of the flat rate. Then the campaign/Bernie came in and said they would raise wages for everyone so they still earned at least 15$, but the union rejected it based on the original deal. Now the campaign is negotiating with the union.

That's the story.

How ironic that the entire reason why this is even worth mentioning is because they had such a good deal in the first place. Sanders campaign get the best pay, healthcare without premiums, mental benefits, parental leave, gascard and more. No one else is getting this.

while it's a smear job, it's factually correct. workers made less than 15 dollars an hour.

Is 30K salary really a thing? Seriously havent heard of that before.

 

[Anung Un Rama]

I tend to be out the loop, and some of this stuff doesnt pass the smell test for me. You or @VivaRevolution have any pro Bernie resource? I'm all in favor of both sides of the story. Could very well be a mole in Bernie's campaign....

No specific source, and I don't know that there is such a thing as a pro-Bernie source in the MSM to cite/ link.
Essentially, Sanders was paying his lowest waged help $15/hr based on a a 40 hour week, as well as paying for their insurance.
These workers wound up working closer to 60 hours a week so the Sanders campaign offered to increase their wages accordingly, but the Union rejected the offer. While in negotiations with the Union, "somebody" complained and the MSM ran with Sanders running a sweat shop campaign full of Communism and gulags. Meanwhile, negotiations have been settled and the workers are making more than $15/hr w/ bennys.

Only because the Union rejected the campaigns offer to increase their salaries.
So if you leave out the facts, then its not factually correct.

 

[Richie Madano]

I don't buy it.

It is nothing but propaganda.

Those that like Bernie see it as a hit job.

Those that don't like bernke will pretend they believe this.

And 70% of Americans have never heard about any of this.

Nothing has changed.

He’s a loser now and he was a loser in 2016. I agree. Nothing has changed. No balls Sanders is done. Put a fork in him.
