THe first thing she should do is push back against Pelosi blacklisting threat to any firm that works for a candidate who wants to challenge a sitting Congressperson in a primary. IT (the blacklist) is a huge impediment to bringing new energy and ideas into the Party.

DCCC actions are the very reason why I am very concerned that the DCCC is determined to hand the national elections to REPUGS. With REPUGS retaining control the $$$$$ continue to flow. Fuck the nation, fuck the people, $$$$$ is what is important. And of course those in power within the DCCC retain that power.

Then we have Biden’s “return to normalcy” promise, which is simply business as usual catering to the .01% and corporations.

The DCCC is suppressing primary challengers to Pelosi’s paid-off incumbent loyalists by blacklisting firms who help primary challengers. She can’t bear to have any more AOCs winning primaries against tired old incumbents!

Candidate suppression is just as bad as voter suppression.

Our air and water are being destroyed by this admin and we’re being told to talk about the DCCC and the clear and present danger they represent to the country. Bullfuckingshit.

I don’t really see that as a binary choice. I am capable of detesting and even protesting what the Trump admin is doing to the environment and simultaneously being disturbed by the DCCC’s apparent dislike of true progressive candidates. I quit donating to the DCCC quite a while ago, and I sent them a letter expressing my concerns. I don’t think that makes me a bad Democrat. I will admit some of the criticism can be over the top, but they do have a history of not supporting viable candidates for reasons that seem questionable at times.

Five other top officials shortly followed her stead.

Really?!? Did this bit of info come from Chiselin’ Trump?

Great. Still won’t donate to the DTripleRLite

No Peruvian-American lesbian candidates available? Huh.

If 2016 didn’t wake you up, nothing will.

Job #1: Protecting TJ Cox in his 70%+ Hispanic district. David Valadao has already filed to try and get his old seat back, and he has a huge pile of GOP money, with his neighbors Kevin McCarthy and Devin Nunes helping out. Really DCCC, no letting Cox twist in the wind as you did with Huerta in 2016.
