Yes, I see what you mean..
It's interesting how they brought this on themselves and Chakrabarti only added more fuel to the fire with his insulting tweets at Dems.
This is AOC's COS..

Oh Cool! I love the title! Excellent rant!
".. Please Remember you're on the Shoulders of a whole bunch of people who came before you!.. "
Wow! McCain.. ".. let's not forget it was Pelosi who delivered Midterms.." ".. it was her leadership.. " ..
And, before anyone tries to "kill the messenger" on what McCain said.. I've been saying the same thing.
Mahalo, betsuni!

Wow.. Whoopi said that on
the View recently?
Of course, Nancy didn't.. she got what she could.. I hate it when anyone zeros in on a whine that has nothing to do with the reality of what actually happened. Like Chakabarti..

Ocasio-Cortez said Friday that it is "stupidly untrue" to say she played the "race card" against Pelosi.

The other quote isn't aging well at all.
Eleanor Holmes Norton's comments are
timeless.
"One thing we will not tolerate," Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton, D-D.C., said, "is using the race question, otherwise known as the race card, on any member — especially a member who has an enviable record." If Pelosi had a problem on race, Norton added, "the whole world would know it."

Let's hope Biden only builds on that and no other candidates get to define Biden with their little scenarios.
Wow.. really interesting.. POC, Indies, whites &
Suburban voters.. Never saw this breakdown before.
Biden’s larger lead over Trump is largely due to the former vice president's stronger performance among independent voters, whites and suburban residents than the rest of the Democratic field.
In a Trump-versus-Biden contest, the president has the advantage with men (51 percent to 42 percent), white voters (50 percent to 43 percent) and whites without college degrees (56 percent to 37 percent).
Biden, meanwhile, leads among African-American voters (85 percent to 9 percent), women (59 percent to 34 percent), suburban voters (49 percent to 43 percent) and independents (45 percent to 41 percent).

Yes, oasis.. they're only giving cover for trump now.. I guess that's what they want.. trying to shame Joe Biden who is leading in the Polls against trump and imo has the best chance in the Electoral College against the monster who puts babies, children, and adults in cages with Deplorable conditions.
I hate that anyone had to get deported
but it was the law and the Obama Admin helped with DACA..
No one griped about the wins Obama had gotten over eight years — Santiago, the Biden protester, received protections under the Obama administration's DACA program for young undocumented immigrants — but they were fixated on what they hadn't gotten.

Progressives Support Shoring Up ACA Before Tackling Medicare For All
Despite a large division in the Democratic party over the best health care solution ― single-payer or a continuation and possible expansion of something like Obamacare ― progressives in Congress appear to be in lockstep with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s priority of shoring up the ACA before tackling anything like Medicare for All.
“I’m happy to support any provision that strengthens the ACA and plug some of the gaps that we’re seeing, particularly as it’s under assault by the president,” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) told HuffPost on Wednesday. “I think it’s part of a longer-term vision, at least for me, towards guaranteeing ― truly guaranteeing ― health care for all Americans.”
