What is Jane Sanders' role in Bernie's campaign?

It seems like with every single disgusting hire, Jane always seems to be the person who seems to be behind recommending them being brought on. I really wonder if there is really two groups in the campaign. Bernie is just doing his thing, while Jane is coordinating with the likes of Sirota and Gray to pull out all the stops and dredge the sewers to bring in the most vile supporters. It would explain why Bernie seems to be oblivious of what going on outside of his bubble.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

Bernie is the candidate. They do what they do in his name. The ultimate responsibility is his. Squinch Mar 2020 #2

If this is being done independently of him and he just can't control it or doesn't notice it, I don't think that bodes well for his ability to run a country.

I was astonished when Bernie was unaware of Bloomberg dropping out. That was the single most significant thing to happen after Super Tuesday, and Bernie didn't even know about it. That told me that his campaign was intentionally not telling him. I may even be willing to give Bernie the benefit of the doubt that he is not behind the recent viscous smears. But that would mean that his campaign has gone rogue, which is much worse.
