The @DCCCs new rule to blacklist+boycott anyone who does business w/ primary challengers is extremely divisive & harmful to the party.
My recommendation, if youre a small-dollar donor: pause your donations to DCCC & give directly to swing candidates instead.

I agree that who should be challenged should come from locals -- local primary voters.

Ya know, I came to that conclusion myself many years ago. I think the DCC has weakened our party

Don't forget: the phone callers are often far worse than the organizations they represent.

Thank you for this. Bernie Sanders got ripped here for "not controlling" every supporter

That just isn't fair. Sanders is in the same boat as everyone else who solicits funds by phone

The DCCC is protecting incumbents?! Oh the horror! It's almost like that is their purpose...

Good for AOC, especially now that the new DCCC rule protects her incumbency.
