Black Lives Matter organizer Cori Bush defeated Rep. William Lacy Clay in Missouri’s Democratic primary Tuesday night, halting a St. Louis political dynasty. Jason Rosenbaum, a political correspondent for St. Louis Public Radio, called Bush’s victory “one of the most significant moments in the history of St. Louis politics. It is enormous.” Clay has served in the House of Representatives since 2001, succeeding his father, who had held the seat since 1969. Bush, 44, had challenged Clay, 64, in 2018 but lost by 20 points. In the 2020 rematch, she edged out Clay to win the Democratic nomination for the

Another indication that one by one, the young hard left aggressive radical Democrats and going to displace the old liberal Democrats as the Democrat Party swings far to the left. There will be no stopping that if Biden is elected, and the Democrats engineer voting rights and open borders for unlimited numbers of illegal aliens to keep them in power indefinitely.

Not unlike the moderate Muslims we hear about; give a Democrat the opportunity and the inner radical detonates.

The plank that the 'Rat Party is fielding for the general election is increasingly becoming outlandishly extreme and left wing. They might keep this 'safe' seat but the repercussions will prove to be disastrous. So be it.

Just for kicks and giggles yesterday I looked at the primary ballot for House 5th Congressional seat here in TN. This is for the Nashville area so of course only a Democrat would get elected for this seat in this otherwise almost blazing red state. Jim Cooper, long time bench warmer, self described "blue dog Democrat", good ole boy network lifetime member, and elder brother of our Little Mask it and Shut it Down Fuhrer Mayor John Cooper has 2 challengers, both are crazy BLM, alphabet people lovin' wackos. We are talking abolish police, get rid of prisons, "free" healthcare, you name it Bernie style moonbats.
How much longer can these long time good ole boy decaying not woke enough urban Southern Democrat survive in an AOC/Soros world?

Hopefully there will be a Rep Speaker of the House to tell Cori Bush to sit down and shut up.

Unfortunately, I was re-districted out of a conservative district into this one several years ago. Clay was useless, but way better than this AOC wannabee.

Lacy Clay was on two of the same House committees as AOC so with his loss that pushes her up in seniority.

BLM has shaken down companies and has millions. I think one company even is giving them 1 Billion dollars. Funny how they have yet to give 1 dollar to any black person, or company or community. Tell me again about how they CARE for black people.

I really do not understand how they have so much support from others if they have not given 1 penney to any black person, company or community. How foolish are we. Totally snuckered by the black mob.

Nancy loses another ally while AOC gains.
Wonder what Nancy is thinking now about holding on to power?
