It’s been decades since Democrats had to confront a genuine challenge from the far left...
The cracks in the party were most evident last week after Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) casually deployed the race card against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). To be sure, Ocasio-Cortez’s side swipe — implying Pelosi singled her and her progressive allies out for criticism because they are women of color — was bad enough. But the real depth of the challenge Democrats face is better seen by looking at comments from Ocasio-Cortez’s chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti...
Observers may wonder why Ocasio-Cortez and her chief of staff are engaging in this internecine battle. From the viewpoint of the evolutionary left, such efforts are futile and self-defeating...
Chakrabarti let the cat out of the bag in a recent extensive profile in The Post magazine. According to the report, Chakrabarti told an aide for Washington Gov. Jay Inslee (D), a presidential candidate, that his boss’s Green New Deal “wasn’t originally a climate thing at all.” “Do you guys think of it as a climate thing?” Chakrabarti says, “Because we really think of it as a how-do-you-change-the-entire-economy thing.” You can’t get much more revolutionary than that...
It’s no coincidence that the Green New Deal speaks as much about ensuring quality jobs and helping “frontline and vulnerable communities” as it does about reducing greenhouse gas emissions. It also calls for an “economic mobilization on a scale not seen since World War II,” uprooting the U.S. economy with the government calling the shots...
If the entire U.S. economy must be uprooted — if the United States is inherently a “racist system” — then those who propose evolutionary change are as culpable as those who oppose any change at all. They must be opposed as strenuously...

Good one keep ‘em coming!
This is 1968 redo of the Chicago Dem Convention. The radicals made themselves the face of the party. They were able to keep the final results close but by 72 they were so evident to give Nixon almost a complete rout. Then came the put up Watergate crap and the tide went rapidly out. Under no circumstances must we let this get Trump at any cost win.
This is how bad it is: President Trump tells "The Squad" to get out of America and his approval polling rises.
If you're a Democrat, you're panicking right about now.
He unmasked the biased partisan Enemedia, too.
Now is the time to get rid of the Bush League Republicans, starting with Flimsey Grahamnesty.
Bush League Republicans want to help the Democrats get a permanent majority through amnesty.
Before President Trump the citizens had virtually NO representation.
They are hoping to block him and wait out his term(s) and continue the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA)
For 2020, the ones up are, Flimsey Grahamnesty, Tillis, Gardner, McSally, Daines, Collins, Cornyn, Capito, Enzi, Rounds, Sasse, Hyde-Smith, Ernst and McConnell.
They all should have primary challengers.
They are all Bush League Republicans.
They need to be replaced with real Republicans that side with the citizens and the rule of law.
The only ones worthy of re-election are Inhofe, Sullivan, Cotton, Perdue, Risch and Cassidy
That’s why everyone in America should pay 10% Fed Tax irregardless of income. Unless of course yours is ZERO!
DJT is making it hard for them to confront their revolutionaries. He is making Pelosi support them.
I am not a huge fan of Lindsey Graham, but he has been getting judges appointed and I don’t think he should be the biggest target. I am not in his state so my vote doesn’t mean anything regarding Graham anyway. I just hope SC doesn’t do something stupid and lose the seat to a Dem like Alabama did with Sessions old seat.
And there you go.
It’s going to take a manly man to tell these ninnies to shut up and get lost.
But there are no men left in the Democratic Party to do this.
Grahamnesty has told us he will work for amnesty until he is thrown out of office.
We should take him at his word.
Frankenstein’s monster has entered the deep state castle and is threatening to destroy the deep state’s criminal money machine. To arms! To arms! We must protect our graft, peeps the Washington Post.
And every single Democrat candidate raised their hand on TV...
On Sunday, Trump made CERTAIN that such de-coupling (which Pelosi was already well on her way to doing) CANNOT HAPPEN NOW.
Trump is still setting the debate parameters, controlling narratives, while using every bit of initiative, intuition, and guile to get his opponents to do what he wants them to do. DJT is schooling the politicians how to play politics. Freakin’ genius...
Yep, he hired her to run for election, and is her handler.
“Nancy has an explosive collar around her neck, and she knows it.”
could I take that one step further; Nan has a petrol filled tire around her neck and her little girls are waving a lighter around.
The left are anti Jewish.
Anti America
Anti Christian
Anti conservative
The left call for attacks
The left are “in your face” in public
The left are profanity freaks
And WE are the ones media calls out!!!
The Peter Principle has struck Bezos right in the face.
