I'm not one to use Fox as a source, but if there's any truth to this, it's a bit unsettling.
AOC apparently intends to "help progressive activists unseat those moderates in their districts in the 2020 elections."
How bizarre. The far left attacking the left that doesn't lean far enough left.
If this is true, it's a shame.
It's basically true. AOC is a Justice Democrat. The Justice Democrats specifically aim to challenge incumbent New Democrats in primaries and unseat them. That's what AOC did to win her seat. Her chief of staff and legislative director are leading members of the Justice Democrats. It's not the far left against the left. It's more like the left against those who dragged the center to the right.
Here's a very good article about the Justice Democrats and how AOC was recruited by them. The title of the article is There is Going to be a War Within the Party and We Are Going to Lean Into It.
