Nearly ever Sanders related piece, and a few trade related ones, I've posted have been alerted on. It's mind blowing, because not only are the primaries over, Bernie lost. Posting that Sanders is working hand in hand with the Democratic party to fight Trump is verboten.

I thought Sanders was included in the rule about not bashing Democratic figures? Is that not the case?
