So many of the attacks regarding "Bernie Bros" are just done purely in bad faith. Basically, I'm kind of numb to it at this point. You can kind of see it for what it is. Part of the reason that they even do this, is because a lot of the people in media throwing around the charge are basically bullies. They understand that there is no risk in punching down and smearing people without platforms, huge fortunes, or political connections, and the capacity to respond in kind. A lot of these people seem to view everything through a lens of branding and brand reputation. At the end of the day it's just a question of doing the work. As far as Warren goes, what a massive disappointment. At this point, I think you basically just ignore it, see it for what it is, and do the work. What matters is just going to voters.

Where to begin: how about the fact that more than 86 percent of people stopped during the Bloomberg administration were black or Latino, according to an analysis by the NYCLU based on an extrapolation of Police Department data. And 4.4 million of these stop-and-frisk encounters, or 88 percent, were of innocent people who were not arrested or issued a summons. During Bloomberg's first year in office, the NYPD conducted 97,296 street stops; in 2012, they racked up 533,042—down from 685,724 in 2011. Only nine percent of stops were white people. Still, Bloomberg was undeterred in his assessment: "That may be, but it's not a disproportionate percentage of those who witnesses and victims describe as committing the murders," he said, adding, "most serious crimes in this city are committed by male minorities [age] 15 to 25."
