I have been disturbed to see, over the last few days, a lot of vicious attacks on Bernie Sanders coming from Democrats on social media.

Fundamentally, I disagree with the premise of many of these attacks, but I have also, after doing some research, discovered that many of them are misleading or outright false. Most of the people repeating these allegations probably do not realize the extent of this, so I wanted to clear the air with a few facts you may not know about Heath Mello and why Bernie Sanders is supporting him. To be clear, I do not live in Omaha and am not particularly well versed on Heath Mello’s background, and if I am mistaken on any details I will gladly correct them. The information I am providing is readily available online and seems to check out.

1. Some folks are butthurt, others do Putin's bidding.

2. What's the point of this? Mello lost. At the very least it would have been better for him if his

race was not nationalized.

3. It seems to be a topic of interest on DU.

Hence I thought the quoted article might be worth sharing.
