Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-NY, and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-NY, could be facing a major challenger in their next Senate races -- Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY.
Top Democrats suspect that the freshman congresswoman will primary either Schumer in 2022 or Gillibrand in 2024, according to a report from Axios, Gillibrand, who is currently running for president, just won reelection during the 2018 midterms after vowing she would serve her full six-year term.
If AOC runs against the two party powerhouses -- and wins -- it wouldn't be the first time she toppled a big-name Democrat after she defeated leading lawmaker Joe Crowley, who was the chairman of the House Democratic Caucus a member of Congress for nearly 20 years, during the New York primaries in 2018.
Since then, Ocasio-Cortez has become a household name and is leading the effort in promoting the Green New Deal in hopes of tackling climate change.

Lord, please bring this on!
Don’t wait for 2024, go after Chuckie! Do it! Do it!
“She’s getting a big head.................”
She has had a big head since day one! Any one who thinks, going into the House of Representatives, that she is going to be signing bills, is dingy as can be. But since I have to question those who voted for her, and just thinking of the New York voters in general, heaven help us if she gets into the Senate.
AOC: Okay. Anything's better than my dorky boyfriend.
Bringing the money home? As in Amazon?
Oh my gawd, funny stuff!
Would watch on pay per view.
I love it especially Schumer.
I think Trump can work with her, and in fact win her over....
I like the idea of her booting Schumer out of there.
She would be amazingly popular if she were to do that....
lol...Sadly Smuckie will clean AOC clock if she tries it. I would love to see Smuckie UE and AOC in the Senate. Daily chaos would follow!
It will look like two venomous snakes fighting when they square off in any combination. All three deserve each other.
The little bartender thinks she is chosen to rule, not to govern.
She sees a horse's head in her bed now, every time she looks in the mirror.
Thanks for the laugh!
She’s no more insane than they are.
She just doesn’t work so hard to put up a facade of normality.
I think he will retire. Trump has castrated him.
Can you imagine her in the Senate, giving a speech with her little ten-year-old girl voice?.............
I think she’s too stupid to realize any of what you said.
I think it would be hilarious to watch how this plays out.
