Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., is blaming a leading liberal think tank for stymieing Democrats’ efforts to unseat President Trump in 2020 and spreading “bad faith smears” about him and other Democratic presidential hopefuls who have moved the party further to the Left.

Sanders sent a letter Saturday to the Center for American Progress and CAP Action Fund, which was obtained by the New York Times, that accused the organization of playing a “destructive role” in the 2020 presidential campaign.

The Center for American Progress was founded in 2003 by John Podesta, who served as White House chief of staff to President Bill Clinton and chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign. Sanders and Hillary Clinton engaged in a bitter primary during the 2016 presidential election, which exposed rifts in the Democratic Party.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) over the weekend accused Democratic Party leadership of exploiting Muslim lawmakers, only using them to bolster the party's image of diversity, yet silencing them at the legislative drawing board.

"They put us in photos when they want to show our party is diverse. However, when we ask to be at the table, or speak up about issues that impact who we are, what we fight for & why we ran in the first place, we are ignored," Tlaib charged. "To truly honor our diversity is to never silence us."

Tlaib echoed comments from Maheen Ahmed, a legislative staffer in the California Assembly. Ahmed charged that the failure from Democratic leadership to defend Omar and "subsequent lack of support from Democratic leadership continues to prove that this system was never meant for us."
