I don't know whether HC was behind this whole data scandal, but it's a typical maneuver of the hardball means-justify-ends political operatives (like Rahm Emanuel/Debbie Wasserman-Schultz) she and her husband have worked with in the past.

It is his to part out over time. I'm sure it would go to Progressive & or Democratic Socialist candidates up and down the ballot.

but I forgot and just used the donate button after signing the petition from the Sanders campaign. I feel bad that I just did that on an angry whim, a monthly too. I have never done that ever. We are committed to this campaign and believe in it. I am just sorry I did it there rather than here

I donated through the DU link before. I was just so angry at this situation after I signed the petition. I got the link to donate then I said to my husband, "How about we donate $XX.00 to the campaign monthly?" He said yes and I jumped on it because he is always telling me no, we donated already once or twice. LOL I am fine and watching this unfold with anger, agitation and pride that the "grumpy old man" is not going to be bullied. He can be as grumpy as he likes, he is grumpy for us and for once we have someone who can be elected who will at least try to do everything he has said he would do. We so desperately need to turn the ship around, ALL the way.
