Congressional Black Caucus members are furious at Justice Democrats, accusing the outside progressive group aligned with firebrand Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) of trying to oust lawmakers of color, specifically African-American lawmakers.
Justice Democrats is backing primary challengers to eight-term Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas), a Hispanic Caucus member, and 10-term Rep. Lacy Clay (D-Mo.), a member of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC). The insurgent group also made noise this year about challenging Democratic Caucus Chairman Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.), a CBC member seen as the heir apparent to Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).
And CBC leaders are fretting that Justice Democrats may target other black lawmakers in the coming weeks and months, including Reps. Yvette Clarke (D-N.Y.), Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio), Emanual Cleaver (D-Mo.) and Anthony Brown (D-Md.). Brown said the group has been making calls in his district, actively trying to recruit a challenger to run against him.
It just seems strange that the social Democrats seem to be targeting members of the Congressional Black Caucus, individuals who have stood and fought to make sure that African Americans are included and part of this process, Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-N.Y.), a senior CBC member, told The Hill.
I dont know what that agenda is, but if they want to come after members of the Black Caucus, its two ways, warned Meeks, the Queens Democratic party boss who clashed with Justice Democrats in a local district attorney race last month.
Some Democrats are hoping that Ocasio-Cortez, the rabble-rousing freshman with 4.7 million Twitter followers, gets a primary challenge herself in 2020.

Alinsky rule #11: "If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside."
The race war between blacks and mexicans has been going on for 20 years. The Nazi media has mostly refused to report it. It only generates coverage when it boils over. Here’s a dated article from the LA Times:

“...Hispanics; they want people who look like them to represent them, and frankly dont generally have the best relations with blacks.”
For better and worse blacks and whites have shared this country for over three hundred years. In spite of their claims of ‘Atzlan’ Latinos, or browns are relative newcomers who are pushing blacks out their old neighborhoods, which blacks resent.
My daughter-in-law is Japanese. I don’t think that even for one moment she or anyone who knows her thinks of herself as ‘of color’. Wonder why that is?
IMHO, This report gives the editorial below more importance:

Chris Bell (D-TX) launched that lame duck investigation into Tom DeLay (R-TX) because racist Chris Bell was upset that he lost his district to a Black Democrat when district boundaries changed.
Chris Bell has also lost races for mayor and governor but never forget he’s an upset racist Democrat who is upset about a black man taking his place in government.
A lot of black Democrat politicians represent areas which are turning Hispanic.
The internal battles will be fun to see.
How funny. The dark brown people are starting to realize that the light brown people are going to take their place as paid voters. I predict dark days ahead in the melanin wars. Javier Gomez is the new Quintavious Washington.
I wouldn’t be surprised if AOC’s chief of staff and head of JD suddenly finds himself indicted for campaign finance violations.
gettin’ too big for their britches.
“Is the motive ethnic, or are the incumbents not liberal enough?”
I suspect black Dem politicians are focused on getting rich rather than focusing on the “white people problems” the woke libs pretend to care about.
