A former senior CAP employee told Business Insider that he and other employees believed Tanden used the influential organization as "an engine for her ambition," sometimes at her colleagues' expense.

"There are very few people who have been as aggressively critical - I would say sometimes obsessively critical - of the progressive left, and in particular of Bernie Sanders, than Neera," the former employee said. , "Everything toxic about the corporate Democratic Party is embodied in Neera Tanden."Joe Biden is hiring about 4,000 political staffers to work in the White House and federal agencies.

Biden is not progressive and neither are the democrats. Democrats have some progressives. Not many. We need a new party that represents the majority of Americans who do not vote and want a safe place to live with unlimited opportunity.

Warren’s support may temper some progressives and this becomes a non-issue. Business Insider article stated that Sanders hasn’t taken a position. If he stays out of this, then the disgruntled P organizations and former Sanders/Warren staff criticism is inconsequential.
