Looks like Mr. Hogg is on his way towards setting off a bit of a civil war inside the Democratic party.

He's proposing spending $20 million to front younger challengers to established Democrats who are up for re-election and who he says are "do nothing Democrats." 

This ought to be good...

Sounds like a good plan.  But the screaming lefties he is likely to support may not weaken the incumbent.

I didn't think Hogg would work out very well for the DNC, but I didn't expect him to faceplant this badly.

On the other hand, I could also see this being part of a plan to convince Dem or Dem-leaning voters their party is really getting some new, game-changing leaders, and the establishment types are getting thrown out to make way for people that will truly bring about the dictatorship of the proletariat.  ;/ [tinfoil]

I was talking with a friend about this over the weekend.

He made the point that the Squad tried the same crap a couple of years ago and mucked around in a couple of Democratic primaries, to varying degrees of amusement.

This action by Mr. Hogg is a bit different.

While the Squad did it of their own volition, Hogg is trying to do it as official party policy, with official party funds. In other words, he's wanting to turn the party on itself for his own ends.

There's simply not enough popcorn for that...  >:D

It is a hell of a lot harder to effectively slow, derail, and stop Trump from crashing the economy, disappearing people, and leading our country into ruin with a weak Democratic Party. With a 27% approval rating that is where we are right now.

Hogg and other like him seem to be convinced that the reason the dem party is polling so poorly is that's it too far to the right and needs to move leftward
Hope he and other similarly thinking dems continue to run their mouths like this straight through to 2028 and beyond.

It took a few days, but the chair of the DNC finally came out and in no uncertain terms called out Hogg and told him that if he wants to direct money to promote primary infighting among Democratic candidates he needs to resign from this DNC position.

Hakeem Jeffries has also called out Hogg's statements and has joined a chorus of Democrats who are calling not for Hogg's resignation, but his out and out removal from his leadership position.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/democrats-vice-chair-gets-ultimatum-neutral-primaries-down-party-leadership

Of course Hogg is doubling down and saying his plans for backing Democratic challengers to Democratic incumbents is not out of step with DNC responsibilities...

Oh, and I was wrong. I thought Hogg wanted to divert DNC election fund dollars.

He doesn't. He wants to use dollars from one of the PACs that he controls.

Still has all the tailor made attributes of a civil war...  [popcorn] >:D [popcorn]

SCOOP: David Hogg is OUT at DNC.
Quote
DEI At The DNC Could Force David Hogg Out As Vice Chair - https://www.dailywire.com/news/dei-at-the-dnc-could-force-david-hogg-out-as-vice-chair

It was a "fatally flawed election that violated the DNC Charter and discriminated against three women of color candidates."

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) may soon move to boot newly-elected Vice Chair David Hogg following a complaint from Native American Kalyn Free, who lost the vice chair race to the Parkland school shooting survivor in February and is now claiming that the election had been discriminatory toward women of color ...

... Hogg also provoked anger from the current DNC Chairman Ken Martin and others within the Democratic Party when he declared his intention to funnel some $20 million through his Leaders We Deserve organization into primary challenges against Democrats whose time he believes has passed. Martin issued a warning, saying that he would be wise to leave the DNC if his intent was to attack incumbent Democrats.

... Longtime Democratic strategist James Carville also took aim at Hogg over his primary plans, referring to him as a “contemptible little twerp” and suggesting the DNC should consider suing him if he insisted on working against the party from within.

It's been over 12 hours and there's nothing on this supposed shake up on any of the news channels, so I'm thinking this is over enthusiastic social media drivel.

Native American woman gets a chance to topple Hogg at DNC

A candidate who failed to win a Democratic National Committee leadership role is challenging her defeat — the first threat to DNC Vice Chair David Hogg since he vowed to keep backing some primary challenges to incumbents.

The DNC’s credentials committee will meet virtually on May 12 to consider the challenge from Kalyn Free, a Native American attorney and party activist who lost a vice chair spot to Hogg at the party’s Feb. 1 meeting.

In her complaint, shared with Semafor by a Democratic source, Free argued that she lost a “fatally flawed election that violated the DNC Charter and discriminated against three women of color candidates,” and asks for “two new vice chair elections.” In February, after several rounds of voting, the race came down to five candidates – Kenyatta, Hogg, Free, and two other women. Kenyatta and Hogg claimed the open spots.

I'm loving this part of the kerfuffle. The twig armed white colonizer living on stolen land has to defend himself against the native American female. When woke comes back to bite you in your ass.  =D

And when I woke up this morning, I didn't think that James Carville and I had anything in common!

The little grifter should just say he now identifies as a multi-ethnic woman of color and that will halt the entire process in its tracks because, according to Democrats, anyone can self-identify as anything and it MUST be accepted as valid.

Wait, that doesn't apply in this situation? For... reasons?
