The infighting continues.

 

Nancy Pelosi trying to ‘tank’ Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s

House Oversight Committee bid: Report

by Victor Nava

 

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) has reportedly launched a behind-the-scenes effort to thwart Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-NY) bid to serve as the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee. Pelosi, 84, would rather see Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.) serve as ranking member on the high-profile panel and is “actively working to tank” the 35-year-old New York Democrat’s bid, according to Punchbowl News. The former House speaker has been “making calls” urging Democrats to support Connolly, 74, over Ocasio-Cortez, the outlet reported on Thursday.

Glad to see America is finally waking (not wokeing) up.  The only reason it wasn't a bigger landslide is because of how many people hate Trump.

No loss.  The best thing about this election was him winning the popular vote as well.

Showing them to be the sore losers they always were.  There was no concern over Russian collusion/interference and he won the popular vote as well this time around.

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, Elizabeth Warren needs to be confronted and asked how she feels about American citizens that feel politicians, like herself, are pushing them too far. And would it be OK if she and others of her like, are executed?

That they're not fighting and trying to figure out why they lost should be the most concerning thing to them.  Shows they haven't learned a thing.

The Democrats’ Culture Denialism

They just don’t get it.

By Ruy Teixeira

Jan 02, 2025

 

In the wake of the Democrats’ drubbing at the hands of Donald Trump and the GOP, you’d assume the party would be all-in on a fundamental rethink, starting with some serious soul-searching on how the party came to be so out of sync with the majority of America on key cultural questions.

 

Questions like: Is America really a “white supremacist” society? What does “structural racism” even mean and does it explain all the socioeconomic problems of nonwhites? Is anyone who raises questions about immigration levels a racist? Are personal pronouns necessary and something that should be popularized if not demanded? Are transwomen exactly the same as biological women and are those who question such a claim simply “haters” who should be expunged from polite society?

 

For each of these questions, the answer for the overwhelming majority of Americans is an obvious no. But in elite Democratic circles, it’s a different story. For a party pondering its unpopularity, you might think that this gap would be a good place to start.

 

Well, if the two months since the election is anything to go by, you’d be wrong. Instead, much of the party is maneuvering to change as little as possible on the cultural front.

 

Why? Because fundamentally today’s Democrats are culture denialists. That is, they do not consider cultural issues real issues. They are typically viewed as politically motivated distractions or as expressions of something else entirely (i.e., racism, sexism, xenophobia, transphobia, etc.) They are not treated as issues that need to be dealt with on their own terms.
