With their scolding and posturing, self-described “pragmatists” are mimicking the far-right’s well-worn playbook of scapegoating marginalized people to evade responsibility for charting a visionary path forward.
you’re splitting hairs and pretending that someone like pelosi in incapable of blocking aoc from a committee position that gets input in makin decision when the democrats are in charge.
Pelosi is neither a member of the DNC nor a leader of the congressional caucus. Nobody cares what Pelosi thinks about anything. It would be great to see AOC in a committee chairmanship. Did you make a phone call to your own congressman and tell them that? Because you have just as much say as Pelosi does.
dnc leadership; the caucus in charge;
Dude the “DNC” is NOT in charge of the Congressional Democratic Caucus. They are 2 completely different groups. The DNC has very little power outside of elections. They don’t call the shots on congressional votes. Nobody in congress cares what “the DNC” thinks about anything after elections are over. If you don’t understand the real world of reality you have no hope of knowing how to fix anything.

you’re right; i’ll just start using the word democrats to describe that blob since using dnc enables hair splitting and redirection like this.
