Justice Democrats is an American progressive political action committee founded on January 23, 2017 by Cenk Uygur of The Young Turks, Kyle Kulinski of Secular Talk, and former leadership from the 2016 Bernie Sanders presidential campaign. Uygur and Kulinski are no longer affiliated with the group. The organization formed as a result of the 2016 United States presidential election and has a stated goal of reforming the Democratic Party by running "a unified campaign to replace every corporate-backed member of Congress and rebuild the Democratic Party from scratch" starting in the 2018 congressional midterm elections. -- Wikipedia

and it seems to be sour grapes ever since.
Inside every Democrat is a Progressive. That's what our core beliefs are. Realistic politics would seem to move forward knowing we dont cream others in our party over stuff that is minutia compared to ANY gop in the same position. Just my take.
Kinda goes w vote the nominee...or get folks like The illiget.

We must have missed the memo. Nobody in their right mind would try to oust a Democrat in Texas as long as there is a Republican in office there.

I'm ready to wake up, now. This nightmare is just getting weirder.
