    Remember when David Hogg wanted to raise money within the Democratic party specifically to primary these unpopular bad actors out of the party and how he was unanimously stripped of all authority by party leaders for the idea?

      But like, she was not only a member of the Progressive Caucus in Congress, she was at one time a vice-chair of the Caucus, and she is primarying against Newsom. She used to be quite popular among the left when she was in the House for her no-bullshit attitude during committee hearings and doesn’t currently hold office. I’ve never really followed her directly, just saw those sound bites and haven’t heard anything since she lost the Senate primary to Schiff. Guess I’ve missed a bit. Would Hogg be funding her as a progressive primary challenger?
