'The Five': 'Squad' member Jamaal Bowman suffers double-digit loss
'The Five' co-hosts react to liberal lawmaker Rep. Jamaal Bowman losing his New York Democratic primary.

Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., is getting a boost from her allies in the House's left-wing "Squad" on Monday, as her anti-Israel comments have her fighting for her political life in this week's primary elections.

"We have just ONE DAY ahead of us before primary Election Day. Come join Cori & some very special guests on Election Day eve to rally together and get out the vote!" Bush's campaign wrote on Instagram announcing the event.

It's a virtual rally to be held on Zoom at 5 p.m. Eastern Time alongside Reps. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., and Summer Lee, D-Pa.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

She's going to get crushed.

Which is too bad.  They might put someone bright in there and make it harder for the limpd**k GOP to do anything.

Squad Member Cori Bush Still Not Sure if Hamas is a Terrorist Group
John Sexton 3:00 PM | August 05, 2024
 
The primary election for Rep. Cori Bush's seat is being held tomorrow and it looks like she's in trouble. Just like fellow squad member Jamaal Bowman, Bush made herself a target with her extreme anti-Israel views. As a result, millions have been poured into a campaign to take her down.
 

In Missouri’s 1st Congressional District, the pro-Israel lobby is pouring millions into a campaign to unseat Bush as part of a broader, well-funded effort to replace critics of the Israeli government and the war in Gaza, such as Bush, with more Israel-friendly Democrats. Outside groups have already spent over $15 million in this race, according to Open Secrets, a Washington nonprofit that tracks campaign finance and lobbying data. More than 80 percent of that money has gone toward ads opposing Bush and supporting her opponent.

A prominent member of the Squad of far-left Democrats, Bush was the first member of Congress to call for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas, nine days after Hamas’s Oct. 7 attack on Israel. She has described Israel’s subsequent invasion of Gaza — which, according to the Gaza health ministry, has killed nearly 40,000 Palestinians — as a genocide.

That's a tough call alright.  A few hundred thousand people hacked to death by machetes, being burned alive, beheaded, etc. really isn't enough to make that kind of call. :3:

Cori Bush, Who Worked as Faith Healer in Religious Group That Claimed To Cure COVID, Says COVID Made Her Miss More Than 100 House Votes
Bush has claimed she's cured tumors and paralysis

Jessica Costescu

Rep. Cori Bush spent years working as a faith healer for a religious group that claimed to have cured the Missouri Democrat's 2020 COVID case over the phone. That didn't stop Bush from blaming the roughly 100 House votes she missed last year on the virus.
 
During a virtual town hall held last week, Bush was pressed on a television ad from a group supporting her primary opponent, Wesley Bell, that dings her for missing "more votes than almost anyone in Congress." Bush dismissed the criticism as "absolutely ridiculous," blaming her inability to make votes on a debilitating bout with COVID, a video of the town hall obtained by the Washington Free Beacon shows.

"It's so absolutely ridiculous. So, this past year, you all, I got COVID, and, you know, I'm an asthmatic," Bush said. "It wasn't my first bout of COVID, but, you know, it hits me hard, and I had instances when I couldn't physically get to the [House] floor." She went on to argue that the votes she missed were inconsequential amendments.

C'mon, we can't allow one day of protest to sully the reputation of a benevolent, compassionate Hamas.  Without Hamas, who would build the peace tunnels used to import the rockets of tolerance?

Watching this race from across the river, the word I hear is this thing between her and W. Belle is going to be close.

Is this a case of replacing one squad member with another?
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

Guy obviously seems hard left, but at least appears sane.   He was the guy that the MO Governor appointed to replace Kim Gardiner, who was the poster-girl of defund/BLM fame during the Ferguson debacle.

Appearing sane over a squad member is a pretty low bar
