Another one bites the dust: Far-left Rep. Cori Bush got the boot from her Democratic constituents on Tuesday, losing to St. Louis County prosecutor Wesley Bell.
That makes her the second “Squad” member ousted this year, as their own party members shun their rabid anti-Israel hate: Rep. Jamaal Bowman lost his primary to Westchester County Exec George Latimer by nearly 17 points in June.
In both races, the challenger won on a pro-Israel message, while also slamming the incumbents for not taking time out from their pro-Hamas hate to actually serve the district.
Bowman denied the rape of women by Hamas during the Oct. 7 slaughter (backtracking when caught out), called Israel’s war on Hamas a “genocide” and called it an “apartheid state”; Latimer supported funding the Iron Dome and opposed the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement.
Bush accused Israel of “ethnic cleansing” in Gaza and this year voted against the No Immigration Benefits for Hamas Terrorists Act, which would ban Hamas thugs involved in the attack on Israel from ever setting foot on US soil.
Bell is plenty progressive: He ran on criminal justice reform, access to abortion, gun control and “environmental access.”
But he offers clear-eyed support of Israel, praising it as “the only democracy and strongest American ally in the Middle East” and affirming (as do most Americans) its “right to defend itself and go after those who perpetrated” the Oct. 7 atrocities.
He called Bush’s smears of Israel “wrong and offensive.”
That’s two haters down, with a hat trick possible: Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) may fall next week for the same reason.
What’s left of the “Squad” should take note.
