Let's call them the infamous three. Reps. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) are the trio of freshman lawmakers who have dominated the political news cycle this year. Whether it's Tlaib calling the president a "motherf***er," Omar spewing some anti-Israel musings, or Ocasio-Cortez promoting whatever her latest radical progressive policy is (Green New Deal, capitalism sucks, etc.), the media just can't get enough. That's a shame, according to Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD), because, as he puts it, they are hogging the limelight from the other 59 deserving Democratic newbies.
Hoyer slams Tlaib, Omar, Ocasio-Cortez when asked about Dems who would still like to push for impeachment, despite Pelosi saying she opposes impeachment. Hoyer: “We’ve got 62 new (Democratic) members. Not three”— Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) March 11, 2019
The veteran Maryland congressman reiterated himself on Tuesday. While acknowledging that the infamous three are very newsworthy, Hoyer implored the press to give the other freshman Democrats some airtime.
Hoyer on freshmen Democrats who get all the attention:
If you read the paper, or watch the news, you come up with three names..there are 59 other people..There are three people who are very newsworthy— Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) March 12, 2019
He's not the only establishment Democrat exhausted by these excitable young guns in Congress. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has even publicly dismissed a few of AOC's more ambitious ideals, including the "green dream or whatever." As for pursuing Trump impeachment, it's "not worth it
Yep.
I would lean toward a coup....................
“.....Reps. Tlaib-Omar-Ocasio...They should just call them The Young Turks.”
How about calling them “The Troika?” Now to figure out who’s driving the wagon.
Get off of Steny Horyer’s lawn you dann kids!

“I would like to think that those three will destroy the Demonicrat party, but it looks to me like there is plenty of support in urban America for these sort of lunatics.”
Here’s some stats for you: democrats who identify as “progressives” make up 8% of the voting population.
Everything else you’ve read is pure propaganda pushed by the “Commie-progressives” in the media.
Let me lay out very bluntly for you:
Progressives are weenies. They can’t fight for crap. If you ask them to step outside to the back of the building, they run away.
Eight percent is enough.
It only took three percent to break us free from the UK.
Of course, that three percent was a better quality of people, but you get the drift.
Too bad the “Three Stooges” name is already taken. It would fit them perfectly.
True enough ... and it’s also true that party-time is running out for the bartender and the two muslims. It’s clear from Hoyer’s comment that the Democrat/Left has had just about enough of them and this is a clear warning they are soon to be crushed if they don’t quickly align themselves with the powerful Dem/Left leadership as 2020 approaches. Tolerance is not tolerated by the Left.
Maybe Hoyer and all his “old guns” will team up with the GOP minority to get these three freaks expelled from the House.
But probably not.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
They’re actually a danger to the country and literally to the lives of millions of Americans.
Chris Plante calls them The Three Hamasketeers.
