A feud between Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has escalated into an ugly insult fest between the two women and their respective Democratic allies.
Here are 11 highlights from the intra-party clash.
- Pelosi Trashes Ocasio-Cortez And Her Squad
Pelosi ignited this clash by taking a shot at Ocasio-Cortez and three other freshman Democrats in an interview with New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd published on July 6. “All these people have their public whatever and their Twitter world, but they didn’t have any following,” Pelosi said. “They’re four people and that’s how many votes they got.” - Ocasio-Cortez Plays The Race Card
Ocasio-Cortez didn’t hesitate to frame her feud with Pelosi in racial terms. She accused the senior Democrat of being “disrespectful” toward “newly elected women of color” in Congress. “When these comments first started, I kind of thought that she was keeping the progressive flank at more of an arm’s distance in order to protect more moderate members, which I understood. But the persistent singling out … it got to a point where it was just outright disrespectful … the explicit singling out of newly elected women of color,” Ocasio-Cortez said Wednesday to The Washington Post. - Democratic Rep. William Lacy Clay Calls Out Ocasio-Cortez For Playing ‘The Race Card’
Democratic Missouri Rep. William Lacy Clay slammed Ocasio-Cortez for playing the race card against other Democrats. “What a weak argument, because you can’t get your way and because you’re getting pushback you resort to using the race card? Unbelievable. That’s unbelievable to me,” Clay said Wednesday. “Unbelievable. That’s unbelievable to me. I could care less. I could really care less. I agree with the Speaker. Four people, four votes out of 240 people, who cares.” - Ocasio-Cortez Says It’s ‘Stupidly Untrue’ That She Played The Race Card
Ocasio-Cortez said she never played the race card against Pelosi and other establishment Democrats, calling the accusation “stupidly untrue” Friday. “That’s stupidly untrue,” Ocasio-Cortez said to Fox News about Clay’s comment.
There’s more
When does the shooting start?
They’re admitting there’s a race card? Gee, who who’d have thunk?
Yeaaah. Cortez never called Pelosi a racist. She just simply said that Pelosi purposely doesn’t listen to and stops the progress of colored women because they’re colored.
See? Big difference. lol
Deblazio Quartez is one ugly chump!
I’m convinced that AOC is a plant put there by Trump operatives for the express purpose of bringing down the progressive movement. The plan seems to working beyond their wildest expectations. I predict that AOC’s true identity will be revealed some day and she will be given a Medal of Freedom for her sacrifice and hard work after Trump wins reelection.
Always believe the woman.
Future is female.
Women are perfect.
Ceckless funts, the bunch of ’em.

I have disliked Pelosi for a long time, but I HATE Cortez. What an evil, ignorant woman. The scary part is will we get more incredible idiots, such as Cortez? Scares the hell out of me. Or, will America wake up and throw ut the trash?
The saddest part of the story are the two words in red: “There’s more”. Yes, there’s always more with these idiots but there should be less.
Both swim in the same cess pool!
Those are insults? Let me take on whoever’s considered the winner.
