Democrats trying to unseat each other

Apart from Democrats trying to unseat each other. Not all the Hollywood glitterati are in awe of groper, hair sniffing, pedo Joe. Actually this actor would much rather have preferred a third choice. The link is from Geller, but that's no reason to reject it outright!

https://gellerreport.com/2020/08/rose-mcgowen-says-biden-dems-monsters.html/

angelo, do you have a source other than the Geller Report?

Also, why are you talking about a Presidential candidate here? Do you have nothing to say about any Congressional ones?

Also why is angelo spamming crap where there has already been a thread started? It's pretty clear the guy doesn't give a fuck what anyone else posts so who gives a fuck what he thinks? And considering 95% of his posts are, "look at some random right wing site on a topic that has already been discussed", why shouldn't they be dismissed as spam?

Nancy Pelosi angers AOC by endorsing Joe Kennedy in Senate race -- about AOC's recent tweets on NP's endorsement of JKIII.

Pelosi defends endorsing Joe Kennedy in Democratic primary - POLITICO

Massachusetts progressive candidates outraise centrist opponents in last days of primary campaign | Salon.com

Sydney Rachael Levin-Epstein on Twitter: " MONEY UPDATE
• The Kennedy campaign said it raised more than $100,000 in response to Pelosi’s endorsement
• #TeamMarkey raised more than $300,000 via 9,000 individual contributions since Pelosi endorsed Joe Kennedy III
To be clear: we outraised him by triple." / Twitter

Markey, who co-authored the Green New Deal with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), has rejected Kennedy's attempt to cast himself as a youthful candidate who will bring bold reforms to Massachusetts voters' lives. The senator condemned Kennedy in a recent debate for spending time working for a right-wing prosecutor, neglecting to prioritize action, and failing to back Medicare for All until 2019.

Pelosi's endorsement angered progressives this week, with the Sunrise Movement saying it revealed a "ridiculous double standard," considering the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee's (DCCC) blacklisting of vendors who work with candidates who challenge incumbent Democrats.

I've seen the argument that Ed Markey is fair game because he's in the Senate and not in the House, but that's hairsplitting.

In MA-08,

Medicare for All advocate and infectious disease physician Robbie Goldstein, who is running to unseat Rep. Stephen Lynch, also outraised his opponent. Goldstein amassed $174,000 through 1,646 donations in the final FEC filing period while Lynch raised less than 10,000.

Campaign Legal Center Files FEC Complaint Against Antone Melton-Meaux – WCCO | CBS Minnesota

The Campaign Legal Center filed the complaint Friday, saying that Melton-Meaux’s campaign has “disguised over 77 percent of its total spending by routing funds through three recently created LLCs.”

“None of the three LLCs appears to have other clients, nor do they appear to have any existence outside of the campaign; instead, the facts indicate that the LLCs were created for the purpose of contracting with Antone for Congress,” the complaint continues.

In a statement, Melton-Meaux called the claim “frivolous,” and said it was a “continuation of more divisiveness and distraction” from his opponent. “The complaint by the DFL and CLC would be rejected by the FEC because it lacks merit,” he said.

It's made the New York Times, the issue of sexual-misconduct allegations about Alex Morse. A certain someone who seems obsessed with false accusations of rape may be pleased to find an example of an apparently false accusation of sexual misconduct.

Alex Morse Was Accused, Condemned and Then Vindicated. Will His Experience Change Anything? - The New York Times - "Vague allegations against the Massachusetts congressional candidate offer a case study in how progressives navigate issues of sex and power in politics when judgment is often swift and unforgiving."

Alex Morse is running against Richard Neal, D-MA-01. He got elected to the House in 1989, making him a 16-term incumbent. He is now head of the Ways and Means Committee, which covers taxes, tariffs, trade agreements, unemployment insurance, public assistance, Social Security, Medicare, and other such things. It is the oldest committee in Congress, briefly existing in 1789 and becoming permanent in 1802. It also covered appropriations and banking, but those were spun off into separate committees in 1865.

According to Jurisdiction and Rules | Ways and Means Committee - Democrats members of that Committee cannot serve on any other committee without the permission of the House leadership.

About RN,

And he is used those relationships and his connections built over 31 years in the U.S. House of Representatives to become one of the House’ top fundraisers — number two in corporate political action committee money — and having raised $3.4 million total.

...
Morse has a different take on coronavirus relief.

“But unless we root out big money in politics, the vast majority of relief money isn’t going to benefit working people, but the billionaires who have been making a fortune during this pandemic. Neal may know how Washington works, but I’m running to change how Washington works -- because it’s not working for us,” Morse said.

...
Morse calls for a universal health care program, Medicaid for all. He's criticized Neal's handling of the surprise medical billing issue.

Morse said he bill he supports would have made the appeals process easier and prevented hospitals from hitting people with unexpected charges some time after treatment and that Neal torpedoed the plan at the behest of campaign donors.

Neal said the plan Morse supports would have given insurers too much control and it would have hurt hospitals , doctors, and clinics.

He voted to include a public option in the Accountable Care Act, Obamacare, but the public option had to be scrapped to get he bill through the Senate. He'd support it again.

Guess who now endorses Alex Morse? A PAC run by another Alex.

Alex Morse on Twitter: "I am so proud to have the endorsement of @AOC's @CouragetoChange.
When AOC took on an entrenched incumbent, she changed the Democratic Party for the better. It would be an honor to serve alongside her in Congress to fight for progressive change that benefits working families. https://t.co/jgvBSwOO7r" / Twitter

No word from AOC herself.

Also endorsing him is Carmen Yulin Cruz, Mayor of San Juan, Puerto Rico, on account of Alex Morse accepting some Puerto Rican refugees from some recent hurricanes. Also Jamaal Bowman, Brand New Congress, Justice Democrats, and the Sunrise Movement.

Confronting a Powerful Democrat, Ocasio-Cortez Supports Morse - The New York Times - "In using her political action committee to endorse Alex Morse in Massachusetts, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez backed an effort to oust Representative Richard E. Neal, the powerful Ways and Means Committee chairman."

Last week, after Speaker Nancy Pelosi took the unusual step of endorsing Joseph P. Kennedy III of Massachusetts in his bid to unseat Senator Edward J. Markey in the state’s heated Democratic primary, Ms. Ocasio-Cortez declared on Twitter that “no one gets to complain about primary challenges again.”

Markey in the state’s heated Democratic primary, Ms. Ocasio-Cortez declared on Twitter that “no one gets to complain about primary challenges again.”

AOC has passed on a sizable number of progressive challengers in this Congressional election season, and she's endorsed at least one establishment candidate, Jerry Nadler. Most of those that she has passed on have lost: Melanie D'Arrigo, Lauren Ashcraft, Shaniyat Chowdhury, Lindsey Boylan, Albert Lee, Doyle Canning, Eva Putzova, Morgan Harper, Jen Perelman, Rachel Ventura, Rachel Parson, Mckayla Wilkes, Zina Spezakis, ... One non-endorsed progressive challenger did win, however: Cori Bush, one of her "Knock Down The House" costars.

She has been very selective about challengers, first endorsing two challengers of Democrats who might almost be Republicans: Jessica Cisneros vs. Henry Cuellar in TX-28 (JC lost) and Marie Newman vs. Dan Lipinski in IL-03 (MN won). She endorsed Jamaal Newman late in the race, after Eliot Engel seemed shockingly negligent about his district. "I risked my life helping to feed the people of my district, while he whines that he wouldn't be back in his district unless he had a primary," she might have been thinking.

What might be the motivation for AOC or whoever runs the CTC PAC? Outrage at that recent smear of Alex Morse? Antoine Melton-Meaux's dark-money campaign against Ilhan Omar?

Alex Morse vs. Rep. Richard Neal in MA-01, that race is getting more stories about it.

Progressives see shot at ousting another powerful Democratic chairman in Massachusetts primary - CNNPolitics

Satisfied by his denial of any misconduct, the Victory Fund, concerned that the allegations would play into homophobic stereotypes, rushed to his defense, while staying in constant contact with indecisive progressive groups.

"For so long, gay men in particular have been branded as pedophiles and sex deviants and all these things that understandably conjure up negative images that no one wants to be associated with," said Elliot Imse, the Victory Fund's communications director. "For us, it was really important that these political attacks against Alex failed, because if they didn't, it would only set a precedent to use these types of attacks against LGBTQ candidates in the future."

...
With the probes underway, but unlikely to return any definitive conclusions before the primary, Morse has plowed ahead with the renewed support of progressive groups and leaders. Justice Democrats and the Sunrise Movement, among others, have all doubled down on their endorsements and Morse has, over the last week, unveiled new slates of local officials who are now backing his campaign. His fundraising totals are growing, beating old records, new volunteers are signing on, and the race appears to be neck-and-neck coming into the final stretch of campaigning.

MA Primary Election Day: next Tuesday.

"Alex Morse is not going to become the Ways and Means chair, Jamaal Bowman didn't become the chair of the House Foreign Affairs committee, but we not only picked up a seat, we fundamentally changed the direction of those committees -- for decades, potentially," said Alexandra Rojas, Justice Democrats' executive director.

Doggett, she added, is "not a Justice Democrat, but he is a lot more progressive and actually believes in something like Medicare for All."

Another committee head, Carolyn Maloney, head of the Oversight Committee, barely survived a primary challenge.

"When it became obvious that Biden was going to be the nominee, we saw a lot of energy and momentum shift to down-ballot progressive campaigns, and our campaign in particular," Morse said. "With a Biden administration, it's more important now than ever before that we have more progressive members of Congress to hold his administration accountable, to make progress on health care and climate change and expand the progressive caucus."

It's good that the Left didn't quit outright.

Pelosi endorses Rep. Richard Neal in Democratic primary - she gushed about him.

Pelosi called Neal “an absolute leader in the Congress, a progressive leader in the Congress, a person who is here” for America’s working families. She praised his work on taxes, climate change, trade and health care.

Neal has been “completely strong and tough minded” in his pursuit of President Donald Trump’s tax returns, Pelosi said during a press conference.

“We are at the mercy of the court,” she said. “We could not have a stronger, wiser, more strategic advocate to get the president’s tax returns then Richie Neal.

Except that he has been very slow in doing so.

When Vice President Joe Biden wins, Pelosi said, and they have a new secretary of the treasury, “then the world will see what the president has been hiding all of this time,” Pelosi added.

Pelosi also said it would be a “tremendous loss” for voters in Neal’s 1st congressional district to reject him and his fiscal sway in the House.

“If you promise not to tell anybody, every time I turn around with any deal that we’re doing, there’s some, shall we say, project of national significance in his district that seems to have made the cut,” Pelosi said.

So he's someone who brings home the bacon? Except that all bacon is pork.

Lauren Ashcraft on Twitter: "These are the power dynamics that candidates, especially women in politics have to navigate. How much do you put up with from a writer from a major publication? I wondered “will they write a bad article about me if I stand up for myself?” https://t.co/4bDop2LjWi" / Twitter
then
Lauren Ashcraft on Twitter: "Two takeaways: @TheAtlantic has a choice of whether to publish this guy or not. What they do next will speak volumes.
Secondly, every single person who experiences behavior like this should know that I believe you and will support you when you call it out." / Twitter

Referring to
Ashcraft's Atlantic Interview Displays Struggle of Women in Politics - New York County Politics

The Atlantic is a publication that I have a lot of respect for. But Lauren Ashcraft, former NY-12 candidate, found the behavior of Devin Gordon, one of the publication's reporters, far from professional.

“Shortly after we started speaking on the phone, I quickly learned that it was not an interview; it was an interrogation into my motives for running,” she recalled. “He seemed obsessed with his theory that I was a `stalking horse’ planted by Maloney to keep Suraj Patel from winning, and he seemed determined to prove it, however false.”

LA was left “feeling cornered” by this hour-long call. A few hours later, DG called again for 37 minutes with more of those sorts of questions.

“Devin claimed to have a ton of evidence ‘on one side’ (begging the question, whose side?) and nothing but my word on the other side. He talked about ‘contradictions’ he was determined to make sense of,” said Ashcraft. “I told him to find the facts. He badgered me to admit that Brooklyn, where our campaign performed the strongest, is where Suraj needed votes to win. Proving…what? Did he think those votes belonged to Suraj? If Brooklyn was the key to unseating Maloney, did he ask Suraj if he considered this before jumping into the race six months after me?”

Suraj Patel got almost as many votes as Rep. Carolyn Maloney, the incumbent who was running for re-election. So CM might want to feel grateful to LA for keeping SP from winning. In any case, SP seems like a horrible sleazebag, someone unworthy of his professional position: professor of business ethics.

Then something LA found very insulting.

“What is the implication here? That if any woman is elected, no other woman is required? Was he implying that only men can run against women?” Ashcraft asked rhetorically. “I can be a feminist, help to organize the Women’s March, and run for office against a woman. These are not mutually exclusive. My district wasn’t being represented in the way I saw fit. I sought to change that, and I will not apologize for that.”

That issue never came up in a nearby district, NY-14, where three women (metaphorically) slugged it out: AOC, MCC, and Badrun Khan.

On August 24, DG contacted LA again, but she wasn't interested in another conversation with him.

“I’m not here to stop an article going out about how I lost or whatever,” she said. “But he called twice before taking almost two hours and wants to talk again, and none of these interactions has been professional, and they’re very biased.”

Nadler, Maloney endorse Markey in Senate primary | TheHill Reps. Jerry Nadler (D-NY-10, head of the Judiciary Committee) and Carolyn Maloney (D-NY-12, head of the Oversight Committee) now support Ed Markey.

“I know his character, and I know his leadership,” Nadler said, calling Markey his friend. “There is no doubt in my mind that Ed Markey is the right candidate to fight for the working families in Massachusetts and bring bold, progressive ideas to Congress. Ed has been a champion for climate action, universal health care, and social justice throughout his career. On these issues, he leads and he delivers.”

Maloney also honed in on her work with Markey to secure $25 million in funding to study gun violence as a public health crisis.

"I'm grateful to Ed for his visionary leadership, and energized by his passion and unfailing commitment to serving the people of Massachusetts and our country,” Maloney said.

EM and JKIII have gotten some additional endorsements:

Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) and fellow Mass. Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D) have both voiced their support for Markey, while Kennedy has garnered endorsements from figures like Progressive Caucus Chairman Mark Pocan (D-Wis.) and the late civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga.).

Pelosi, AOC, Gaetz: The dam is breaking on playing in primary battles - POLITICO - "An unwritten rule on Capitol Hill is fading amid ideological churn in both parties."

Not just Democrats are trying to unseat each other, but also Republicans.

"More and more members of Congress are going to look and say 'rules are rules' but if in fact there’s a district that’s suffering… we’re going to see a lot more members of Congress supporting challengers,” said Marie Newman, who knocked off longtime Illinois Democratic Rep. Dan Lipinski earlier this year with the backing of several prominent Democrats.

...
“If the establishment is going to start shooting at the outsiders and the pro-Trump elements of our caucus, then the bullets aren’t only going to be flying in one direction,” said Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz, who backed the successful GOP challenger to Rep. Ross Spano (R-Fla.) after a member of GOP leadership targeted one of his other colleagues.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter: "No one gets to complain about primary challenges again.
So @dccc, when can we expect you to reverse your blacklist policy against primary orgs?
Because between this & lack of care around @IlhanMN’s challenger, it seems like less a policy and more a cherry-picking activity." / Twitter

“What we’re seeing right now is the Democratic establishment really being honest in public about what they’re doing. What’s not a change is them taking sides in primaries — they have long done it for years and years and years, they’ve just been more private about it,” said Charles Chamberlain, executive director of Democracy for America.

...
But both Gaetz and Ocasio-Cortez have serious sway on the right and left, respectively, so if they do decide to get more involved next cycle, things could get messy. Several other Gaetz-backed candidates sailed to victory in open Florida GOP primaries last week, including far-right activist Laura Loomer who has been banned from Twitter and Facebook for racist comments and attacks on Islam but who has little shot at winning in November.

Rumble, rumble in MA-01

Super PACs Coordinating to Support Richie Neal - The American Prospect - "Two separate entities are engaged in what appears to be a joint effort to protect the congressman from a primary challenge."

Rep. Richard Neal (D-MA) has had a strategy for beating back a challenge in next Tuesday’s Democratic primary from Holyoke mayor Alex Morse. It begins with dollars and ends with cents. Neal’s campaign has spent $4.3 million this cycle as of the middle of August, and still had $2.7 million left for the stretch run, nearly ten times as much as Morse, who has spent around $1 million. Much of that money—nearly $2 million—has come from corporate political action committees, though Neal’s lawyers want you to know that is in no way equivalent to funding from corporations.

But that apparently wasn’t enough to make Neal comfortable with his political standing. He is also getting support from over $1.5 million in independent expenditure campaigns. The American Hospital Association PAC is running close to $500,000 worth of television ads. And two other super PACs, Democratic Majority for Israel (DMFI), which has spent money defending several incumbents from insurgent primary challengers this cycle, and American Working Families (AWF), have dropped over $1 million combined.
