Virginia Dem Rep. reportedly yelled and cursed at Caucus members
The Democrat Caucus held a call Thursday in which members of the party were reportedly scrambling after losing key seats in the U.S. House of Representatives in Tuesday’s Election.
Erica Werner of The Washington Post said that during the call Virginia Rep. Abigail Spanberger yelled, “We lost races we shouldn’t have lost. Defund police almost cost me my race bc of an attack ad. Don’t say socialism ever again. Need to get back to basics. If we run this race again we will get f****** torn apart again in 20222.”
Rep. Spanberger’s office didn’t return this reporter’s call or respond to an email request for comment.
In her Twitter thread describing the call, Werner added that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, however, disagreed with Rep. Spanberger’s assessment, reportedly saying “We have a mandate!”
According to Werner, Florida Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell was crying on the call over people mispronouncing her name. And, later Rep. Hakeem Jeffries reportedly urged members “to stop leaking and that reporters aren’t your friends!”
According to Fox News reporter Chad Pergram, Democrats failed to flip House seats and appear to have lost seats that the party flipped in 2018.

Democrats Worry Continued Fundraising by Kamala Harris is Hurting Them With Voters
The 2024 election has been over for weeks now, but Kamala Harris is still fundraising.
Despite raising and spending more than a billion dollars in this election cycle, Harris ended her campaign with more than $20 million dollars in debt. Even more shocking, the DNC laid off a massive number of staffers and didn’t pay senior campaign workers at the end.
Now Harris is still fundraising in a desperate attempt to retire her campaign debt and other members of the party believe this is very damaging.
Politico reported:
Dems fear Harris’ continued fundraising ‘erodes trust’
The emails themselves don’t mention debt, instead citing the organization’s support for recount efforts in close races and legal challenges. And the Harris campaign denies that the campaign or affiliated joint fundraising committees had outstanding debts on Election Day, and says they won’t report debts owed in future Federal Election Commission reports due in December.
But the fundraising appeals have still continued, and some Democrats fear she may be compounding the party’s problems with the tone of some of her appeals — damaging relationships with online donors who have long powered the party. In just a few months, the vice president built up a record-breaking fundraising operation. She raked in funds from millions of online donors within the first week of her candidacy, and continued to hold fundraising events well into the fall. Now those same donors who helped her raise more than $1.4 billion are among the people being asked to give more. The emails still come two or three times a day.
This is going to be a serious issue for Democrats going forward. Their own donors don’t trust them anymore and who can blame them?
