      Justice Democrats fire back at new DCCC chair Bustos over comments on primary challenges

      The progressive group Justice Democrats rebuked Rep. Cheri Bustos (D-Ill.) on Thursday after she said that the job of her party’s House campaign arm is to back incumbents.

      Waleed Shahid, Justice Democrats’ communications director, said in a tweet that, if it were up to Bustos, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) likely would have had no chance at ousting former Rep. Joseph Crowley (D-N.Y.) in a shocking primary upset last year.

      Maybe if “Democrats” in Congress were acting like Democrats nobody would want to primary them?

      BTW, the entire POINT of a primary election is for somebody of your own party to run against you, if you’re not doing your damned job.
