Witnesses at the recent Democratic National Convention say that Bernie Sanders had a noticeable gash on the right side of his face that he was trying to hide.
The cut was on the right cheekbone and has given rise to questions about whether or not the Vermont Senator was physically beaten-up by somebody within the DNC.

Images of Sanders from Monday show no wound on his face. However, images from Tuesday evening clearly show a gash on his right cheek, of a type one might expect from being punched by a fist which had a ring on it.
The gash is quite deep, certainly nothing like a shaving cut. The man was clearly hit with something.
In whose interest would it be to physically assault a US Senator who is seeking his Party’s nomination for President against the wife of a former President?
In who’s interest indeed?
This issue is spreading very fast among Bernie Sanders supporters and there is trouble brewing in and around the Democrat National Convention and the DNC over this. Here’s one Facebook posting about it:
SANDERS QUITS DEMOCRATIC PARTY
Just one day after this photo was taken, Senator Bernie Sanders QUIT the Democratic Party. Strange thing for a man to do who has spent the last year campaigning for President as a Democrat.
Unless, of course, he got beaten-up by someone else in his own Party . . . someone with something to gain by his departure.
This is how Communists operate in politics and it appears the Democratic Party has become a full fledged Marxist outfit. They are certainly NOT your parents Democratic Party.
Sean Adl-Tabatabai
Wow, I never noticed it.
Who knows, I’d say imo, I believe he could have been jumped.
American Liberals are so regressive, SOOOOO regressive. You never know.
“American Liberals” are so regressive? Let me see, who was it that offered to foot people’s legal bills at his rallies if they “get a little rough with them” referring to people disagreeing with Trump’s babble? Who was it who said –oh yes… “Donald Trump Misses the ‘Old Days’ When You Were Allowed to Beat Up Protesters. ” Trump and Clinton are evil twins. She executes it, he talks about it and encourages other people to do it.
then why was it only Trump protester doing all the stupid crap???? Trump supposters weren’t attacking the democRATS! altho I would have to say the majority of the democRATS needs their stupid asses beat .
So wait, does this mean they both need to get fucked?
Liberals ARE not Democrats. The Republicans and Democrats are meant to divide us. Wake up.
So WRONG. Bernie would never stand down to any such thing. He would have taken care of this if such even occurred. Not to mention the thousands of supporters around him that know he is a strong man willing to face any challenge to ensure America Is strong. This is not posted by anyone supporting Bernie…This has more the stink of Trump supporters that have very little creativity!
Clintons have been known to do anything to get what they want she wants the presidency Bernie acted funny when the camera showed him I put nothing past these criminals
Put the blame where it belongs—in Hillary’s court.
You know I am a Trump supporter, and we were never the ones that was in the riots and all of the stuff went on, we are not the one that is slinging out racist remarks, and calling people bigots and names that I have never heard of, I think the left has gone bonkers, you need to go and live in a communist country for a year or so, and you would be begging for a Republican to come save your butt, but as whiney as you Bernie supporters are you would never make it a day, so why don’t you carry some of the blame for where the country is going, it sure isn’t Trump he has never been in office so I just wonder ???????
None of us would ever stand down — unless they threatened your wife or grandbaby and then we’d all stand down.
Brilliant assessment, lol.
Yea, including gunning down your mother in her own home while dismantling your country!

Speculative rubbish and you should know better than to post these kind of articles. I’m just going to quit following this page after reading this non-sense.
I’m sure that Son Of A Bitch Donald Trump is spreading this rumor.
Not Trump—Hillary!!!!!
Trump doesn’t need to spread rumors you are doing a good job, Hillary is your hit person, you should take a look at Trumps family and maybe use them as roll models
Eyes wide shut, down these comments.
Is the person writing this garbage on drugs? Uh, yeah, ok, a Senator who is protected by secrete service and who was running for president was assaulted by Clinton goons. Get the F-ck outta here. You losers. Media that publishes this rubbish should be banned from doing business as a news source.
Nope… Sanders detail was pulled weeks ago… I’m a brit and I knew that.
You clearly did not read the entire article…….. It says they took Sanders Security Detail at least a week ago!!
If you think Hillary’s Camp is above this kind of behavior, you clearly have not been paying attention!!
This has been her MO for Decades, and people who are in a position to cause her grief have a nasty habit of Turning up dead. Bernie may be the “Luckiest Man on Earth”!!
But he may also have “Slipped in the Shower”…….. we will know if the Clinton camp makes mention of that, we will know its a Lie!
That’s all Hillary Knows how to do!
Um he LOST his as protection prior
See what we’re dealing with? That why we can’t have nice things
he no longer as protection they removed it
He might have fallen and didnt want to say that as it would show weakness. Bernie Sanders is awesome and if anything happened to him, that was any of our business, he would have already told us. He is not running for president now, so lay off him, he is a nice guy
He is as big of a crook as any others, never made a paycheck until he was 40years old, and all he ever did when he was younger was protest, and didn’t do a darn thing when he was in the senate he is a looooser!!!!!
Wow, and this propaganda is coming from a supporter of an inheritance brat reality tv show star. Carpenter, journalist, psychiatric hospital aid, and head start teacher. He passed and assisted in many bills in Congress. Could it have been more? Hmm, a progressive, in sea of neocons/neolibs? Yeah, it wasn’t easy. Yeah, when you’re not rich and the system sucks, you protest instead of Netflix and screw it
Yep, it’s true!
Disgustingly clintonrsque disrespect intend to degrade Benie. You suck..
Probably clinton’s goons. People who get the clintos’ way have a tendency to meet violent ends.
I love Bernie dearly,but I have to disagree with what was said about the four pictures of Bernie. Look, you can see that mark in all four pictures!!!
all 4 pictures are from tuesday. that is the day he had the wound on his face. there are 4 pictures, presumably to show more than 1 shot of it. You can also see the wound in this video, after the 1 minute mark, when it zooms in on his face. A very clear, fresh cut, not even scabbed yet.

There is a HUGE bruise on his lower cheek/neck as well
Have you ever had Melanomas removed? I have.
I worked in a plastic surgery office for years. If he had a lesion removed and it was this deep, he would have had stitches and steri strips, not just an open wound the next day.
In a town that is not your own, by a doctor that is not your own, in the middle of the Democratic Convention? Really?
He opened his limo door into his face moron
She smacked his ass around until he backed her.
Bullshit journalism, where are the witness reports that he got assaulted?
There WAS a witness report on tuesday morning. I saw it myself. It was removed a few hours later. Wish I’d screencapped it. The poster said they were “freaked out” because they had just seen some “goons”, one with blood on him, leaving sanders’ rooms. They got scared and ran away. *shrug* whether you believe them or not, I kinda do, since they posted it hours and hours before the videos and pictures showing the cut on Bernies face showed up.
maybe you should read marx first. before accusing marxism…
To all of the scum bags at the DNC: You are low down despicable human beings. You will need us in November and you can go to hell. I hope to God we never find out that any of you put your hands on Bernie, there will be a different kind of revolution and that is a promise you can bank on!
Maybe he went for a minor skin operation on Monday. If he was beaten up, I’d expect to see more bruising or injury.
The Clinton’s have used Mafia tactics in politics for decades. Bernie is lucky he didn’t “commit suicide” over the grief of not winning a rigged election.
what? communists and marxist what? omg the ignorance. Sesationalism ftw.
Scumbags
If it was done with intent to intimidate, you can bet it was done for Capitalist gain. After all, right wing politicians tend not to be assassinated. That goes against Humanist thinking interwoven into Socialism, which is in reality no more sinister than wanting a fair balance in society rather than ongoing increasing wealth extraction from the 99%. That bit about ‘Communism’ is farcical since American politics makes mid-ground SEEM left wing. To get the true perspective you need to look with global eyes and bypass the media conditioning of western countries currently veering to the right but calling it mid ground.
I agree, but remember they NEED to be the enemy, now more than ever.
If the American people find out what happened in Honduras there’ll be hell to pay, and the DNC foots the bill!

Well considering Clinton’s history of people involved in their scandals like White Water etc. Witnesses committing suicide etc. I can believe due to HC’s vindictive ways that he could have been beaten and may have threatened to harm his family and grandchildren. I also noticed the mark on his face before he asked delegates to fill out forms. Forms they were told to sign and then DNC would shifted to not let them contest things at the convention. This is fact. California for example. After the first day they started filling their chairs and placing reserved signs on their seats. Using white noise speakers over them and Oregon delegates to drown out boos and contestants. Making their boos and protest sound like cheering. The paying $50 a day for people filling seats also is very well known by Bernie supporters. At end Bernie supporter began pulling off those reserve signs on the seats that were used to being to keep them from sitting. Watch and you ask you can make up your own minds or question delegates yourselves to get answers. … https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTdjWfA7iOY
These tactics will spread among elitist politicians across the world unless we put a stop to it. The people of Scotland, still fighting for their independence from the United Kingdom, support you in your fight for justice and REAL democracy. We would love to have Senator Sanders visit Scotland to speak at one of our rallies as we share many of the same aspirations for the betterment of ordinary people around the world. As our Celtic brothers and sisters in Ireland would say … Tiocfaidh ár lá …. Our Day Will Come
Also Bernie delegates credentials being pulled. … https://theintercept.com/2016/07/31/video-shows-arkansas-democrats-barring-bernie-sanders-delegate-from-convention-floor/
The Democratic Party has no respect for the lives of the young, so why would they have respect for the lives of the old? What kind of monsters beat up a Senior Citizen. I’m not even a democrat myself but I would never side with ANYONE who would inflict violence upon the oldest and wisest of us, those of use we should endear and respect! I would even turn against my own party if they resorted to such measures. If this is true, if he was assaulted by those in his own party – and you’re a still a democrat, please reconsider the platform of your party and ask yourself if respecting life, the most basic of all human rights, is important to you.
Furthermore, verbal threats against him or his family qualify as a form of assault.
I think it has been shown that the area of Bernie’s right cheek has been seen on photos since the 90’s. Many of us who are also Bernie or Bust supporters believe the recent photos show that MAYBE a skin cancer has been removed and is in the process of healing. If in fact that is true, there would be bruising. the rate of skin cancers increases as you hit the 70-80 age range. I just had one removed from my back.
So that means the Bernie Sander and Trump supported have assulted Hillary.
This only goes to show the ruthlessness and the extent to which they will stoop to win the final, ultimate prize of owning the White House!!! The oligarchs have been orchestrating this for decades!!! Murder? They euphemize it and call the the “cost of doing business”, and “collateral damage”!! This is the end of a two party system!! Their New World Order will be complete in November, and it is a one party system none of us are invited to!!! Calling all Angels!! We need Divine intervention!! Ground control to Major Tom!!! Earth Emergency!!!!!!!!
Learn how to write and spell. You sound like a foreigner, sticking their opinion where it doesn’t belong.
right, he had a skin cancer removed between the a.m. and the pm while at the convention, probably scheduled the surgery between conferences………..not
trump needs to gwt away from puten.
Or bring him here and let him have an oldschool commissar “sit-down” with shillary.
lol hillary beat his ass!
“This is how Communists operate in politics and it appears the Democratic Party has become a full fledged Marxist outfit.” There is plenty of this going on around both sides of the political aisle, these days. Seems that, as the quality of the candidates has declined, so has that of the political discourse. But then, these people ARE competing to run the government… and government is not eloquence, or reason, but force. Usually it is dressed up real pretty, in uniforms, with flags flying… but however you dress it up, it retains its nature.
Got off lucky. Usually Hillderbeast has people killed off.
This is crap. Looks like a sun spot to me.
This is the kind of thing that starts an Insurrection. Be very worried about that now.
i reckon he was threatened with his grandchildren too because that would be the only thing that would rein bernie in!
I heard that Bill and Lynch talking about their “grandchildren” during their meeting on the tarmac was a veiled threat aimed at Bernie
I feel the same. After he endorsed the bitch the first thing she said, and I mean the first, she said “I just met Bernies grandson behind the stage……it gave me the creeps! this was way before the gash “appeared”.

It is hard to take news pages seriously when the editing is this bad. Please get some decent copy editors and go from there.
Oh for God’s sake! Really – that narrative is ridiculous
That’s what you would call an endorsement motivator!
It was probably some of his supporters for supporting Hillary.
calling corporatists communists is just absolutely moronic
To All you low life pieces of shit of the DNC, you poor excuses for human beings. May GOD NOT have mercy on your souls.
That’s not actually Bernie. It’s a clone that Hillary grew in a vat in her basement next to the private server just so she could have Bernie endorse her, which of course the real Bernie would never do. Those evil Democrats and their wily ways!
While it’s sad that he may have been attacked, I see a glaring error in your journalism: Karl Marx was NOT a Communist. He was a Socialist. So calling him a Communist is an extreme insult to Socialists, everywhere.. Have you forgotten that Bernie claims he’s a Socialist? So basically, you’re falling for a right-wing trap, saying that Bernie was a Communist, at least transitively.
I want so much to share some of your articles, even though you are red-flagged on our (BernieCrat/OurRevolution) general list to not share due to proof of misinformation. I don’t mind posting articles that end up not being true. But it is always your last paragraph spewing some anti-Marxist or such nonsense and it throws my suspension of disbelief right out the window. In these times of a desperate need of integrity of reporting, you could become a real contender instead of just click bait. Instead you opt to rail against obsolete political ideologies that mean nothing to most Americans except the ignorant whispers of McCarthyism. Bernie was assaulted, but I’m not using this article to share the news. Hide your bias, let go of the past, help the world move forward. You have a soapbox, use it responsibly. There’s fucking killers on the loose and they don’t care if you call yourself a Democrat, Republican, Marxist or Clown, they just don’t want anyone to get in their way. GET IN THEIR WAY MORE!!!!
“This is how Communists operate in politics and it appears the Democratic Party has become a full fledged Marxist outfit. They are certainly NOT your parents Democratic Party.” Jesus Christ, way to take a speculative leap!!! Congratulations….
Interesting, potentially damning to Clinton and the DNC, but has nothing to do with Marxism. Stalinism, yes.
My wife and I just watched the series House of Cards (the US one), and much reminds one of Hillary and her draconian tactics. Psychopaths are incapable of being progressive, as there concerns are only for their own personal benefits.
This last bit is a slur against communists. Obviously, this is the American way. There are many good peaceful communists. There is at least as much democracy as the DNC has demonstrated.
This is so much B.S!! These ppl think they are way beyond the law…Bernie did NOT deserve that! The Clintons ARE their own Arkansas mafia people!!
I am voting for Trump, and I am asking ever one else to do the same…HE WON’T back off! Let’s really piss them off!!
Vote TRUMP!
but were the communist…
I remember that..it was right at that point when he 180 switched from the vigorous..”we’re never gonna quit” Bernie…to the “shut the f___ up Bernie” sad and silent and whipped…and just after that…he turns up with a new $600,000.00 third house on the coast of Vermont….was it a “shut the f___ up gift?”
You had that right up until the house. It is a decent cabin-like home, not a mansion, and they bought it after they sold Jane’s deceased mother’s house. The bullied and threatened him (probably his family) but he didn’t take a damn bribe.
fake news 100% here.
Biopsy. But he didn’t tell anyone about it until he had the growth removed after the election. Here he is in December –
unless he got “roughed up” again, that spot hasn’t healed in 6 months… http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/bernie-sanders-fleeting-free-market-moment/article/2608721
I believe the gash on his face was from cancer being removed.
