Expect many confused pundits, and Bernie Sanders fans, to mull for hours why the AP released its critical announcement that Hillary had won the delegate race just hours before the important CA primary. For now, however, here is the response from a confused, unhappy, and perhaps angry, Bernie Sanders, released moments ago by his spokesman, Michael Briggs.

What was supposed to be an all-important California primary tomorrow just became moot moments ago, when in a surprising announcement, AP just called the race for Hillary who according to the newswire's calculations has earned enough delegates to become the presumptive Democratic nominee, making her the first woman ever to win a major party nomination.

We have pointed out on numerous occasions that the Clinton Foundation has had some sketchy dealings to say the least (recently here & here).

In an interview with Jake Tapper, Bernie Sanders also said he has a problem with the foundation - the senator continues to hammer Hillary as he simply refuses to give up on his bid for Democratic presidential nominee.
