AOC-backed progressive group targets Democratic leadership over meddling in Republican primary

A left-wing group dedicated to electing progressives that is backed by "Squad" member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez , D-N.Y., is targeting the national Democratic Party's leadership following recent attempts to meddle in a Republican congressional primary in Michigan. "Democratic Party leadership will literally support Republicans before they start supporting progressives," Justice Democrats wrote in a Wednesday morning tweet that included a report detailing spending by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) to boost the Trump-backed challenger to incumbent Rep. Peter Meijer, R-Mich. The DCCC told Fox News on Monday that it plans to spend $425,000 on a new ad buy to boost Republican challenger John Gibbs against Meijer, who was one of the 10 House Republicans that voted to impeach former President Donald Trump following the Jan. 6 storming of the U.S. Capitol. The ad buy appears to be an effort by national Democrats to help Gibbs win the pri...
