‘Civil War’: AOC Aide To Challenge Nancy Pelosi For Her Seat

The ongoing civil war for the soul of the Democratic Party has finally come for Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).

The former U.S. House speaker’s San Francisco district will play host to an ideological battle next year after an aide to “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) announced his intention to run to Pelosi’s left in their party’s 2026 primary.

Saikat Chakrabarti, who propelled AOC past a longtime party incumbent during her successful 2018 campaign, is laying the groundwork to remove Pelosi, the face of a Democratic establishment that has been “paralyzed and unprepared” since President Donald Trump took office. Chakrabarti is starting at the grassroots, holding online meetings with voters as he prepares to mount a serious bid for California’s 12th Congressional District.

After serving as AOC’s chief of staff, Chakrabarti embarked on a lucrative career with stints on Wall Street and in Silicon Valley. Now a millennial millionaire, he has collected the largesse and Rolodex to fund a spirited intra-party challenge.

“I’m going to find every way I can to talk to everybody that I possibly can in San Francisco and get my message to them directly,” he explained.

Chakrabarti added that removing Pelosi won’t bring about change overnight, but releasing her iron grip on the party apparatus would be a symbolic victory for the new generation of activists.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists

She stays until she drops dead.  Of course, based on the way she looked at the SOU, that could be any day.

Pelosi is being challenged.  I don't think that she's going to be able to hold onto her seat.  After her fall and because of her age, people know that her time is limited.

AOC will bring terminal lunacy to her party if she gains power.

They don't hardly make 'em like AOC anymore—but just to be on the safe side, she should be sterilized anyway.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.
