Progressives are outraged as Pelosi reportedly undermines AOC's bid for top Dem spot on key committee. Is Pelosi's interference justified or does it hinder progress? Will AOC's push for reforms be stifled? The battle for power within the Democratic Party intensifies. #PelosiVsAOC
I hope they tell the old battle axe what she wants to hear, as they know she’s on her way out anyway & they don’t wanna get on the bad side of the inevitable future caucus leader. AOC is too good at this game to risk pissing off over the old biddy’s last hurrah.
But then again, we’re talking corporate Dems - not exactly known for making the smartest moves, are they?

You’re being overly charitable. They aren’t making mistakes; they’re competently pursuing different goals than they claim to be.
