Being thrown off or deserting the sinking ship of state...
The DNC has seen plenty of drama, as we've been covering, given that DNC vice chairman David Hogg is not only out, but revealed he isn't running again when it comes for the revote that was scheduled. He's out for good, after serving in the role for just four months. He's not the only one who is out, though. Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), sent a letter to DNC Chairman Ken Martin indicating she would not accept a reappointment as a DNC member.
As Weingarten mentioned in her letter, she has attended every DNC as a delegate since 1992, has been an at-large member since 2002, and served on their Rules and Bylaws Committee since 2009. It's her issues with current leadership, though, that has her wanting out.

It's no surprise to me that Hogg got thrown overboard. When your 'plank' is to go after sitting congresscritters, that's NOT going to win you any points...
Weingarten has been on the wrong side of many things since 2019, not the least of which was the WuFlu vs. schools issue. She's been trying to deny her participation in that whole CF, but people are bringing receipts, videos, and posts from various media.
Personally, I think this is her trying to 'distance' herself from the next set of failures and any blame as she tries to hang on to her seat at the AFT (and the salary of over over $560,000 that goes with it).
She's lost the DEI 'mandate', losing in a number of states on charter schools, and contract talks (like Chiraq) are not going in her or the union's favor. When you add in the loss of 'required' donations to unions, that is cutting into the amounts of $$$ that the union has to 'buy' influence.
I just wonder how long she can dodge the reckoning she has coming...
What goes around comes around. The Democrats are experiencing the wheels falling off the car they refused to maintain. Good for them. The best possible outcome will be a re-centered Democrat party that becomes responsive to the People again, and the resumption of competition for votes with the Republicans based on belief and not gaslighting. I'm not big on Democrats by any means, however when one party is in power with no real competition, they become jaded and corrupt. That goes for local and national politics. It would be great to see some viable Democrats challenge the RINO Republicans, and even better to see Conservative Republicans challenge the RINOs.
We can hope anyway.
To twist a metaphor, "A skunk can't change its stripe". This is just rebranding, more subterfuge. A turd remains a turd no matter now many times you roll it in powdered sugar and sprinkles.
