Several of the emails released indicate that the officials, including
Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, grew increasingly agitated with
Clinton's rival, Bernie Sanders,
and his campaign as the primary season advanced, in one instance even
floating bringing up Sanders' religion to try and minimize his support.
