There was a group of millenials who were protesting in Chuck Scummer's office. They are demanding that he step down and support Bernie for Minority leader.
MSNBC was talking about it. They say it's unlikely that Scummer won't win the leadership bid, but t hat the Democrats might be planning to give Warren and Bernie some sort of official role.
I don't think they understand how this works. You fucking idiots proved that you are not leaders. You are followers. Scummer should do the right thing and step down. He should let someone with a spine prepare for battle, not limp in and pretend that he actually knows what the fuck he's doing.
Nancy Pelopsi is going to have a vote for House Democratic Leadership on the 30th. Supposedly this was her plan all along.

How did it work out for this site and the country to support a neoliberal, neocon in the Democratic party?

No one was banned for supporting Sanders and you can see plenty of Sanders' supporters commenting on the site.
Folks were banned for violating the TOS -- including bullying other commenters.
What she means by "bullying" is that we were very articulate in stating why Bernie was the better candidate, and clear in pointing out Hillary's flaws.
Ain't that the truth?!

Schumer's done more than anyone except Bill and Hillary Clinton to intertwine Wall Street and the Democratic Party. He raises millions and millions of dollars from the finance industry, both for himself and for other Democrats. In return, he voted to repeal the Glass-Steagall Act in 1999 and voted to bail out Wall Street in 2008. In between, he slashed fees paid by banks to the Securities and Exchange Commission to pay for regulatory enforcement, and eviscerated congressional efforts to crack down on rating agencies.
