Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez continues to shun responsibility for heightened tensions among House Democrats, distancing herself from her former chief of staff Saikrat Chakrabarti whose attacks on moderates she called “divisive.”
Her comments came soon after Chakrabarti’s surprise resignation earlier this month following a series of controversies that contributed to public divisions within the House Democratic Caucus.
“I think it was divisive,” Ocasio-Cortez said during an interview with the New York Daily News, though she insisted the resignation had nothing to do with Chakrabarti’s attack on moderates. “I believe in criticizing stances, but I don't believe in specifically targeting members.”
She added that her office then spoke with Chakrabarti, prompting him to “immediately [take] the tweet down.”

You own it.
Not so easy being a puppet, I suppose...
Does she have a new handler...er, chief of staff?
She is going to go pretty silent and try to backtrack as much as she can, so that she can say, “It wasn’t me! It was the one-armed man. See, all the bad stuff HE did!”
NOPE! She is as evil and corrupt and deft of heart-felt feelings as her POS Chief of Staff! She was all on board with his divisiveness when she thought it was winning her points and accolades!
SHE OWNS THIS CRAP - hook, line and sinker!!
Huh? Chakrabarti was her CHIEF OF STAFF. How did "her office" speak with him?
LMAO.
She threw that guy under the bus and drove over him about a dozen times.
She’s standing there confused, her arms waving around: “Why do I say now? What do I, like, say? Someone, like, put their, like, hand up my gumper and, like, work my mouth, quickly!”
Cortez is the one who uses ignorance to divide the educated white voters from the black progressive overlords. So there!!
So, how far did Nancy get her hand up AOC’s ass to turn her into a puppet? And can’t wait for AOC to doublecross her, it will happen, it’s what scorpions do.
Hold on there, you liar.
1. Didn't you threaten to support primary campaigns against Democrats who don't support your agenda?
2. Aren't you a member of Congress right now because you DID "specifically target" a sitting Democrat in Congress?
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: You can tell just by looking at her what she is.
This is what Nancy delivers to her members when you don't listen to Robotox the first two times...
Feds probing AOC’s chief of staff Saikat Chakrabarti after sudden resignation
“Does she have a new handler”
Might be Pelosi.
Whatever she said to Cortez (Silver or Lead?), seems to have been mighty persuasive.
It has been a short time, and Congress has been out of session, but there seems to be quite a lot less noise coming out of the Cortez pie hole lately.
"The two PACs being probed, Brand New Congress and Justice Democrats, were both set up by Chakrabarti to support progressive candidates across the country.But they funneled more than $1 million in political donations into two private companies that Chakrabarti also incorporated and controlled, according to Federal Election Commission filings and a complaint filed in March with the regulatory agency.
AOC did not show up at a Bronx event on her schedule Saturday. Her office would not comment on the staff departures, and Chakrabarti did not return several messages.
The sleeze stain cant be removed
What about money? Does she have a sugar daddy bankrolling her galavanting all over to blab her pernacious drivel
Just what does she consider a moderate dem? Someone who is just a Trotskyite and not a full on Marxist?
Chakrabarti made her out of nothing. He can probably send her back to it.
I suspect AOC has never been more than a catspaw.
It’ll be interesting to see who her new CoS is.
Don’t worry, AOC’s Brain will continue to pull her strings behind the scenes...
Q: Anyone know how long AOC’s ex-CoS was with her, before, during, after her campaign?
When she had that photo op with Nancy recently, it must have been a real come-to-Jesus meeting. Hilarious!
