In a rather odd development, St. Louis apparently is fine with the riots and violence. They elected a new member of the Squad (as this is a safe Democrat seat in November). Cori Bush another left wing communist in the mold of Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib won her primary against long time St. Louis Rep. Lacy Clay. He was first elected in 2000. His father, who held the seat for 32 years before that. Now, Justice Democrat communist radical Cori Bush becomes the AOC of St. Louis since no Republican has a shot in this House race.

Not only is Cori Bush a communist, she’s also an anti-Semite. She will fit right in with “the Squad” that hasn’t done squat. This is the Democrat party now.
Congratulations to @CoriBush , who fought against all the odds, even against contracting COVID during the campaign, to topple a dynasty last night!!
