House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and freshmen members of the Democratic Party's left wing took fire from Rep. Abigail Spanberger during a Thursday conference call among House Democrats, with Spanberger blaming poor messaging on the party losing seats in the House of Representatives.
Spanberger, a former CIA officer who narrowly flipped a traditionally red Virginia district in 2018, once again eked out a victory on Tuesday but said it shouldn't have been that close, and her caucus lost races they shouldn't have.
"The number one concern that people brought to me in my race that I barely rewon was defunding the police," she said in audio obtained by the Washington Post. "And I've heard from colleagues who say, 'Oh it's the language of the streets, we should respect that.' We're in Congress. We are professionals. We are supposed to talk about things in the way where we mean what we are talking about. If we don't mean we should defund the police, we shouldn't say that."
"Defunding the police" has proved to be an extremely unpopular policy position, with polling showing that anywhere from just 24% to 28% of Americans support the slogan/movement.
Spanberger went on to blast socialism, stating, "we need to not ever use the the word socialist or socialism ever again" - a direct shot at Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib who are socialists.
"If we are classifying Tuesday as a success from a congressional standpoint, we will get f-ing torn apart in 2022," she said.

They could still get lucky. ;p
Yea, they didn’t want anyone know know about this call. /sarcasm off
Evil damn people.
The freeloading freaks.
the four whores of the apocolypse. Forgive my spelling.
“Spanberger, a former CIA officer who narrowly flipped a traditionally red Virginia district in 2018, once again eked out a victory on Tuesday but said it shouldn’t have been that close, and her caucus lost races they shouldn’t have.”
That’s because the fraud machine was in high gear.
I would wager that all states were subjected to this BS some more than others.
Notice that the candidate did not blame the “agenda”, she blamed the “messaging”. Thus, she didn’t say the the Democrats should actually abandon socialist policies, they should just not talk and brag about it.
They’ll just use the term: Progressive.
How could they get torn apart? They’ve got this vote
harvesting thing down pat. 1,000 registered voters?
No matter, you can count on 7,250 votes in that
district. And if the other side complains, just call
them sore losers.
This nation is under attack.
The CIA witch had help top retain her seat.
Yeah, but in so doing, she actually acknowledged they couldn’t
win on those unpopular issues.
And yet they think they did.
We all know how they did.
More of the DNC BS misdirection. The narrative is “the Democrats lost ground in the House so that proves there wasn’t cheating”. This torn apart business is pure BS. They stole the POTUS kept the House and now they are going after the Senate.
The next two years are going to get interesting, I predict a democrat civil war soon, and if this is the best they can do for 2020 in 2022 and maybe 2024 they will get slaughtered.
Rep. Abigail Spanberger is a CIA POS. There are more than a few of America’s Stasi in Congress.
Yeah. They only try to figure out a way to falsely represent their true intentions and hoodwink the voters.
No they won’t. Now they know they can get away with open theft at the polls. In 2024 think they are worried about a Biden AG or DOJ coming after them?
Hell, they Barr didn’t do a damned thing, think an AG Andrew Cuomo will go after them?
Exactly. She objected to using the *word* socialism, not the ideology itself:
"... we need to not ever use the the word socialist or socialism ever again"
These stateswomen would be offended to hear a cuss word like that. /s
They will win every election going forward.
