Not just denied.
If they had denied it then, hey, that's their prerogative, the party is a private entity that can do whatever the fuck they want.
What was fucked is they strung protestors along telling them they'd get to speak, then pulled out at the last second when there wasn't enough time to react.
If they weren't going to let them speak, they should have said it.
But bald faced lying to avoid the optics of a protest is billshit, and why people don't trust Kamala. She shot herself in the foot and then got mad her boot has a hole in it.
And they were going to endorse her at the speech.
What speech?
That group already endorsed her weeks ago essentially saying:
It's what progressives almost always do. Look at the exit polls as far back as you want, we show up and hold our noses come November, but we spend the rest of the time (before/after) trying desperately to pull the party left.
Anyone telling you different is uninformed or trying to divide the party.
Edit:
My bad, I think.
Did you mean to say they were planning to enorse her at the DNC? I think I misunderstood your comment as a question.
You mean with the statement...
Is that the one in which they endorsed her, the one ending "impossible for us to endorse her"?
Impossible to directly endorse, but then explains she's the only option to stop trump...
From the second and third paragraphs of your link:
They flat out say what matters is stopping Trump and that third party votes are a waste...
Who do you think that leaves?
I feel like my summary was accurate:
But details matter so thanks for linking their full comment for those who haven't read it.
