DNC chair faces growing scrutiny amid financial pressure and internal turmoil

DNC Chair Ken Martin is facing scrutiny after reportedly throwing his phone toward a junior aide's desk, amid broader financial and internal troubles at the Democratic National Committee. The DNC has reportedly asked vendors to delay billing until after the midterms and used its headquarters as collateral for a $15 million line of credit, while facing a large funding gap compared to Trump and the RNC. Despite calls from some for his removal, Martin retains support from party leaders such as Hakeem Jeffries, and DNC rules require a majority vote of members to remove a chair.
