      Yup. I have. They want to take out perfectly good incumbents instead of focusing on Republicans, so I Want Every One Of Them To Lose Their Jobs I also think AOC is in constant controversy, will accomplish nothing in Congress, & see her popularity fall unless/until they’re firedhttps://twitter.com/HeerJeet/status/1149896831792537600 …

      You've repeatedly tweeted that you want Justice Democrats -- plural -- fired. Not just Chakrabarti but Justice Democrats.

      So, your theory of progress is that Dems need to purge young leftists. Which is what I've been saying. I personally don't see that as a way to build a party.

          Jeet our you this stupid on purpose. Justice Dems does not equal progressive. See the candidate they chose to primary Sharice, a white guy from another state whose only qualification was a Bernie ass kisser

          But there are plenty of other cases where people allied with Dana work to purge other young leftists. If you talk to the young left, you'll quickly get a sense that they see this as a wider problem.

          The theory of progress is flipping red seats blue, which side of this twitter spat had more success with that?

          Switching the red seats blue and then having those new blue seats stymie anything remotely considered progressive & vote for republican policies & Trump’s Supreme Court picks.

          Can you name any “young leftist” Congressional staffer who doesn’t work for AOC? Name me one staffer who works for Primila Jayapal. Name me one staffer who works for Barbara Lee. You can’t. I can’t. _Because If you’re a big part of a story you’re a shitty Congressional staffer_

          These guys need to get their own radio shows and get out of working for Congress, honestly.

          Did you see what Lucy McBath's staffer said about a Dem Congress person? No? THAT'S BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN. What? She's not left enough? Not young enough?
