Bernie Bros to Stage Epic Anti-Hillary ‘Fart-In’ at DNC Convention

Bernie Sanders supporters and other progressive activists have a unique plan to protest the nomination of Wall Street-backed Hillary Clinton at the Democratic convention in Philadelphia later this month. They’re going to stage a “fart-in.”

You might be wondering what, exactly, a “fart-in” entails. Well, the plan is to make sure that Bernie Sanders’ convention delegates eat plenty of beans prior to entering the convention hall in Philly. Then, they shall unleash their noxious bodily fumes, which will send a powerful message to Hillary — that she stinks, or something.

Sanders fans on unfazed by the Vermont socialist’s recent endorsement of Clinton. Instead, they’re putting their foot to the gas:

Cheri Honkala, national coordinator for the Poor People’s Economic Human Rights Campaign, expects more beans to pour into her group’s downtown Philadelphia office.

Boxes of dry beans and heavy containers of canned beans already have arrived by mail, Honkala says, in all varieties: navy, pinto, lima and baked, with return addresses in Texas, Wisconsin and across the Rust Belt.

The flatulent agitators told U.S. News & World Report that they have vetted the numerous bean varieties to determine which will unleash the most pungent odor. The organizers got the idea from Saul Alinsky, the infamous community organizer who once proposed a “fart-in” in Rochester, New York, decades ago.
“It shows the level of absolute disgust that we’re at – we think we’re going to remember 2016 as the year we begin to bury the two corporate political parties,” said Honkala. “It’s really a shame — this whole thing does stink.”
