Freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez elevated her battle with the DCCC over the weekend by taking to Twitter encouraging the progressive grassroots activists to not donate to the establishment campaign arm of the House Democratic caucus:

In March the DCCC made a policy change which essentially blacklists any consultant that works to primary sitting Democratic members of the House.

AOC’s latest move further escalates the civil war between Democratic factions as House Dems struggle to unify with Pelosi in the driver’s seat:
