According to a bombshell report by Politico, Bernie Sanders delegates plan to rebel if former Vice President and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden fails to cave to their demands, specifically their Medicare for All demand.

Biden, who still technically hasn't clinched the Democratic presidential nomination yet, is counting on Sanders' delegates to push him over the needed threshold.

“More than 360 delegates, most of whom back Sanders, have signed on to a pledge to vote against the Democratic Party’s platform if it does not include support for ‘Medicare for All,'” POLITICO reported on Monday. “They argue that single-payer health care is an urgent priority amid a worldwide pandemic and the biggest unemployment crisis since the Great Depression.”

“This pandemic has shown us that our private health insurance system does not work for the American people. Millions of people have lost their jobs and their health care at the same time,” said Judith Whitmer, a Sanders delegate. “There’s people leaving the hospital now with millions of dollars in medical bills. What are we going to do about that?”

Other groups including Progressive Democrats of America and the Bernie Delegates Network are also behind this push and will publicly call out the more moderate Democrats in the near future. 

“We’re going to fight like hell for Biden. And there’s no contradiction between doing that and supporting this pledge,” said a supporter to Politico.

The Daily Wire reports:

Biden has been coy about this health care plan, even as his campaign rolls out major, detailed policy documents on other issues. According to NBC News, its unlikely Biden will support a full overhaul of the current health care system, though, given that the Affordable Care Act, also known as “Obamacare,” was a signature achievement of Biden’s former employer, the Obama administration.

Instead, Biden is expected to reinstate the individual mandate the requires all Americans to purchase some form of insurance, NBC says, and will limit the associated plan price increases by allowing “consumers to spend [no more than] 8.5 percent of their income on insurance.”

Even though the specifics aren’t public yet, the cost for Biden’s health care plan is. As the Daily Wire reported last week,  Biden’s full platform could cost upwards of $10 trillion. His health care plan accounts for a full $750 billion of that price tag, and that’s without information on efforts to curb “systemic racism,” which Biden’s policy team says will soon be built into all aspects of the candidate’s spending plan.

Biden has proposed a $4 trillion tax increase, mostly on high-income earners and corporations he claims do not pay taxes.
