Sanders Campaign Threatens Lawsuit Over Red 'Bernie Is My Comrade' T-shirts

• infowars.com

Attorneys who purport to work for Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders want the Liberty Maniacs to stop calling Bernie "comrade" and to refrain from using his likeness in political parodies.

"Yesterday, April 14th, the Bernie Sanders campaign sent a cease and desist letter claiming that I am unlawfully selling parodies because they used the likeness of the Official Bernie Sanders for President logo in this shirt," according to the Liberty Maniacs blog.

The site posted the letter, along with a response from attorney and "heroic scourge of copyright trolls across the internet" Paul Leavy, who wrote about the incident in his blog.
