Just because Democrats did well in the midterm elections doesn't mean that their civil war has ended. In fact, it's only just begun.
A small group of ultra leftists decided to form an organization last year to reform the Democratic Party by pushing a radical socialist agenda and electing like-minded individuals to public office. They call themselves the "Justice Democrats" and they're about to become a thorn in the side to establishment Democrats.
The group received a huge lift with the election to Congress of the high-profile democratic socialist Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez. Her chief of staff is going to be Saikat Chakrabarti, a co-founder of Justice Democrats, and both the newly elected congressman and her top aide are threatening to primary incumbent Democrats who don't agree with their agenda and/or are the wrong color.
Here Come the 'Justice Democrats'
