Tlaib, Omar face insurgent primary challengers: Can ‘Squad’ survive?
Two of the four members of 'The Squad' are facing serious Democratic primary challengers in the coming weeks
By Paul Steinhauser | Fox News

    Two of the four members of the group known as "The Squad" – an influential group of progressive first-term minority congresswomen – are facing serious Democratic primary challengers in the coming weeks.

In Minnesota’s heavily Democratic 5th Congressional District – which covers much of the city of Minneapolis and was ground zero for the nationwide protests sparked by the death of George Floyd – freshman Rep. Ilhan Omar is facing multiple challengers on the Aug. 11 primary vote, including one challenger who has dramatically outraised her.

And in Michigan’s overwhelmingly Democratic 13th Congressional District, which includes parts of Detroit and the inner suburbs of Wayne County, the Aug. 4 primary is a rematch from two years ago, as first-term Rep. Rashida Tlaib is trying to fend off Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones.

Even IF they don't survive, this will not stop them for running again or recruiting someone just like them to run in the near future.

Anyone paying attention over the past few decades knows the quality of politician in DC has just sunk lower & lower.

Since the GOP has grown increasingly limp the attitude of rats has become more & more extreme.

I wouldn't be surprised if in five years members of the Squad look good by comparison to whomever the rats are then putting up for office.
