Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Missouri Visit Poses Obstacle for Claire McCaskill

McCaskill yet to get behind incumbent Dem Lacy Clay

BY: Brent Scher — July 21, 2018 5:00 am

 

Ocasio-Cortez will be campaigning in St. Louis for Cori Bush, a fellow activist running as a Justice Democrat with hopes of defeating incumbent Democrat Rep. Lacy Clay, a member of Congress since 2001, in an August primary.

 

The visit poses an obstacle for Sen. Claire McCaskill (D.), who entered the Missouri legislature the same year as Clay and has maintained a friendship with him for more than three decades since. Despite her relationship with Clay, and her stated belief that ideas such as abolishing ICE are "dumb," McCaskill has been unwilling to get behind Clay.

 

Clay told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch he considers McCaskill a "supporter," but the senator has refused to endorse him in his race against Bush, with her campaign saying she doesn't get involved in Missouri Democratic primaries.

Dem Candidate Donated Millions to Groups That Advocate Taxing Families for ‘Irresponsible Breeding’

 

July 20, 2018 9:40 am

 

Scott Wallace, a Democratic congressional candidate in Pennsylvania, donated millions of dollars to groups that advocated taxing families for "irresponsible breeding," according to a report from Fox News.

 

Wallace, who is running against Republican incumbent Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick in Pennsylvania's 1st Congressional District, donated almost $7 million to population control groups since 1997. The funds came from the Wallace Global Fund, a progressive foundation that his family established as a means to "promote an informed and engaged citizenry, to fight injustice, and to protect the natural systems upon which all life demands."
