He had the shortest tenure of any vice chair in the DNC. Amazing.
Rumors had swirled earlier in the day that the move could be coming, with Breitbart reporting that an earlier committee vote laid the groundwork for Hogg to be removed:
On Monday, the credentials committee of the DNC voted 13-2 to void the election results from February in which Hogg and Pennsylvania state Rep. Malcolm Kenyatta (D) were elected to serve as co-vice chairmen of the DNC, according to the New York Times. The vote comes as Hogg is reportedly planning to 'spend up to $20 million' to fund 'primary campaigns against incumbent Democrats.'
As momentum began to build against him, Hogg took to social media to release a statement on the situation:
Sorry, little buddy.
The moves sent shockwaves throughout conservative circles on social media, with several pundits voicing their staunch support for the DNC to keep Hogg exactly where he is:
Don't worry, everyone. We won't just sit back and let this injustice take place. If we band together, we can fight this move and do everything we can.
STAND WITH DAVID HOGG!
