It's gotten heated this last week between Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the squad, on the one hand, and Nancy Pelosi, centrist Democrats, and the House Democratic Party leadership on the other. But this conflict isn't empty intra-party bickering. It's an actual political and moral battle, with one side, AOC's, on the right side of history and one, Pelosi's, not.
Miles Kampf-Lassin wrote about the battle and what it means, in an article called "They're Not Just Mad at AOC — They're Scared of Her." https://www.jacobinmag.<wbr />com/2019/07/alexandria-ocasio-<wbr />cortez-aoc-nancy-pelosi-<wbr />democratic-party
We also mentioned a recent Washington Post profile of AOC's chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, that's worth a read: https://www.<wbr />washingtonpost.com/news/<wbr />magazine/wp/2019/07/10/<wbr />feature/how-saikat-<wbr />chakrabarti-became-aocs-chief-<wbr />of-change/
