Hogg, a 25-year-old gun control activist, who was elected the DNC’s vice chair, has sparked an intra-party uproar over his announcement that his political group, Leaders We Deserve, would be spending $20 million to challenge “asleep-at-the-wheel” Democrats in deep-blue districts.

“We, as the DNC, need to be seen as a body that can be trusted, that’s not putting its thumb on the scales,” a DNC member told Politico. “We have to be so strategic and careful with our resources right now. … So why are we in this circular firing squad against Democrats?”

    We need Guillotine Party democrats, not gun controllers. And we definitely don’t need fossils.

      Yep, if anything from these past few months have taught left wing types… it’s not to throw away the guns

      Dems would sweep everything if they dropped the anti-gun rhetoric and focused on shit that would actually help.
