Head for the (fire) exit!

Westchester County Executive George Latimer sent Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) packing from Congress Tuesday night, easily winning the 16th District’s Democratic primary over the far-left “Squad” member.

Latimer, 70, will be heavily favored to defeat Republican Madeline Brame in the Nov. 5 election to represent the deep-blue Bronx and Westchester constituency.

Bowman’s four-year House tenure will come to an end following the most expensive congressional primary ever in terms of ad spending – a race which pitted pro-Bowman groups like Justice Democrats and the Working Families Party against an alliance of moderates turned off by the incumbent’s stances, mainly on Israel.

In case you’re fired....

Best part is, Bowman only has two terms in congress - he doesn’t qualify for retirement (needs 3)

[Darksheare]

He embarrassed the puppet masters.
Back to the little league for him.

[Alberta's Child]

I always refer to him as Jamaal “Milk Dud Head” Bowman.

If only the Jewish lobby had as much influence over the U.S. government as they do over your mind, they would have crushed Hamas and Hezbollah, years ago.

[Alberta's Child]

Bowman had previously defeated long-time House member and foreign agent Eliot Engel (D-Israel) to win that seat.

Now if we could just get rid of the rest of the ‘squad’ of morons.

Ilhan Omar won the primary in 2022 with only 50.3% of the vote. She could very well get bumped off in August.

Losers!

[Revel]

One progressive liberal replaced by another. Maybe this one will be better behaved.

[FlyingEagle]

Adios stalinist.

[dfwgator]

Hopefully, this bitter primary contest will promote fissures in the communist coalition (aka the Democrat party).

A Trotskyite ousted a Stalinist.

My nickname for Jamaal is “The Puller”.

[Ancesthntr]

Well, bye!

[Zathras]

No wonder AOC has been crazier than normal.
The Squat knew this was coming.

[Political Junkie Too]

I noticed that Bowman held his rally in the sliver of the Bronx that was just being added to his district. He stayed far away from the southern half of Westchester County, which makes up 95% of his district.

He can find somewhere else to pull fire alarms now.

Sweet victory there, but replaced by another lefty, this one apparently “more moderate.”

Not happy that AOC won her primary.

Not in NYC. People’s Republic of the Bronx is famous for leftwing governance and huge plaintiff’s verdicts in personal injury case. He’s kin to a professor! So he’s above the law.
