The Afternoon Campaign Update (Because The Campaign Never Ends)
As Notre Dame Cathedral burns to the ground, the Democrat Party leadership threatens to join it. – Nancy Pelosi was featured in a puff piece interview with reliable Democrat activist Leslie Stahl on CBS’ “60 Minutes” fake news program Sunday evening.
At one point, Stahl pointed out the different groups within the House Democratic caucus. “You have these wings — AOC and her group on one side,” Stahl said.
“That’s like five people,” Pelosi smirked.
Stahl responded by correcting the Speaker, saying that the “progressive group is more than five.”
“Well, I’m progressive — I’m a progressive, yeah,” Pelosi responded.
San Fran Nan may be “progressive,” but there are varying degrees of progressivism, and hers pales in comparison to that of our Bronx heroine, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
As the New York Post points out in the linked article, the House Democrat “Progressive” Caucus is in fact the largest single segment of the Party’s house membership, consisting of 98 members, of whom AOC is among the “most recognizable,” as the Post somewhat hilariously puts it. What an understatement.
Pelosi claims to be in full control of her collection of miscreants, grifters and radical activists, telling Stahl that “By and large, whatever orientation they came to Congress with, they know that we have to hold the center. That we have to … go down the mainstream.” When Stahl asked her if “progressives” like AOC really understand that, Pelosi nervously replied that they do.
Well, you could’ve fooled AOC, Nan. Today, she told the Yahoo! news podcast “Skullduggery” that a Biden nomination “would be going backwards”:
“That does not particularly animate [me] right now,” she said, adding that she has “a lot of issues” with a potential Biden run.
“I can understand why people would be excited by that, this idea that we can go back to the ‘good old days’ with Obama, with Obama’s vice president. There’s an emotional element to that, but I don’t want to go back. I want to go forward.”
Oh. San Fran Nan’s botox is going to explode when she reads that. After all, Creepy Uncle Joe is the Democrat Party’s great doddering hope of appealing to the “mainstream” as Pelosi likes to refer to it, which really means the center/left segment of “independent” voters. As demented as San Fran Nan is, she is still enough in touch with reality to realize that no Democrat nominee can win the presidency without tacking some moderate votes on top of the Party’s hard-left voter base.
But AOC is having none of that. Having no use for Biden and his “mainstream” nonsense, her choice should be obvious to everyone:
“I haven’t endorsed anybody, but I’m very supportive of Bernie,” she told “Skullduggery.” “I also think what Elizabeth Warren has been bringing to the table is … truly remarkable, truly remarkable and transformational.”
So, no more of that fake commie stuff from the Democrat Party for AOC – she wants to got the full commie this time, and what better way to do that than with the old Bolshevik or the fake Indian?
Notre Dame Cathedral burned right down to the ground today because firefighters in Paris have no means of containing a conflagration in a structure like that venerable landmark. It is beginning to look as if the Democrat Party “leadership” is headed for a similar disaster, given that it has no means of containing their growing legion of chaos creators exemplified by AOC and Ilhan Omar.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of people.
That is all.

“That’s like five people,” Pelosi smirked.
LOL! Nancy’s coalition of collectivists are no match for the greatest anti-truth, anti-freedom, anti-individual, anti-life collective in the history of civilization.
They are the Super Kids of Kaos. Wonderquadruplets Activate!
Hey, AOC, I’ll be glad to lend you money for matches and gasoline.
I hate to be so dense but I’ve read this post 3 times and can’t find anywhere she actually theatens to burn the democratic party to the ground. I guess the title isn’t meant to be taken literally,right?
Oh no don’t stop please mustn’t do[/sarcasm].
Great moments in ironic timing, eh?
The fifth Beatle.
Nancy is the old dufus Kaiser. AOC is a young simple Adolph.
Oh the humanity!
