Summary
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) lost her bid to lead Democrats on the House Oversight Committee, defeated 131-84 by Rep. Gerry Connolly in a secret caucus vote.
Reports suggest former Speaker Nancy Pelosi actively lobbied against AOC, backing Connolly by making calls and using political capital to sway votes.
Connolly, 74, cited his experience and record as decisive factors in his victory, despite progressive disappointment over AOC’s loss.
Supporters viewed AOC’s bid as a chance to revitalize Democratic strategy, calling the outcome a missed opportunity for the party.
The Democrats promoted Trump’s words because they thought he would be an easy victory. It just gave him free ad time and enabled dipshits to vote for him.
The Democrats promoted Trump’s actions in ads because it raised campaign revenue for the 2018 Midterms and 2020. Dipshits just saw them and went “He’s hurting the people I hate, based and redpilled!!”
The Democrats copied Republican talking points with COVID, Trans people, police brutality and funding, the border “crisis” and then wondered why a fascist voting base doesn’t want a non-white woman running on the platform of “Back to 2016 Trump’s America”.
They would rather have fascists run America because fascists don’t hurt the bottom line and don’t threaten the rich, only the working class.
I don’t remember any of that happening.
Treason Trump gave rich people and corporations a gigantic tax cut and raised taxes people making under 75k. Kamala was going to raise taxes on corporations and lower taxes on the middle classes. Tax rates are the #1 thing everyone should be focusing on because wealth inequality is the driver of almost all other problems.
