A wild conference call amongst House Democrats, details of which leaked on Twitter Thursday, shows emotional lawmakers distraught with Nancy Pelosi and the ‘Squad’ over their party’s disastrous election performance.

Democrats had expected to pick up 10-15 seats on election day and have instead seen Republicans gain six net seats while being on track to net 10 seats overall.

Several members of the caucus “angrily confronted” Pelosi over the losses and blasted radical progressives for tying the party to efforts to “defund the police” and “socialism.”

House Democrats savaged Speaker Nancy Pelosi in a family venting session that featured yelling and crying lawmakers in the wake of the party's losses on Thursday.

And the drama on the three-hour conference call played out live on Twitter, as details were leaked to the Capitol Hill press corps, who tweeted all the wild details.

Rep. Abigail Spanberger, a moderate Democrat, ripped into party leaders on a conference call on Thursday after House majority shrank

'No one should say 'defund the police' ever again,' Spanberger said, referring to one of The Squad's demands
'We will get f****** torn apart,' she added

Speaker Nancy Pelosi defended the party, saying Democrats held the House

Democratic Rep. Debbie Mucarsel-Powell, who lost, her race, cried during call  lolol

She said colleagues couldn't pronounce her name and were mean on Twitter

Details from the call played on live on Twitter as those on it leaked details to the Capitol Hill press corp, who promptly tweeted them

As details from the conference call emerged online, lawmakers demanded the guilty leakers be found  ROTFLMAO

Thank you for the post barepixels.  While some of the comments by House members suggesting the dems back off from the alt-left agenda sound promising, I honestly don't think they can help themselves.  They idolize liberal run cities like San Francisco with feces in the streets or Portland where peacefully thrown bricks, peaceful looting and peaceful burning of businesses has turned downtown into a ghost town.  And after seeing these examples of their utopia they want us to entrust them with transforming America?  I say a great big no thank you to that and I hope more and more democrat voters wake up and smell the burning feces before it's too late.

All the Progressives won. Lots of Centrists lost.

A Fox News exit poll showed 72% of Americans want Medicare for All.

Who would have thought letting a pandemic freely infect the nation you are sworn to protect, killing hundreds of thousands and ruining the economy in the process would have it's consequences.

Trump lost, get over it.

Another dumb idea.  Term limits will not resolve issues between racists and non racists.  Or informed and uninformed voters.  Or any other hot issue with two opposing views.  Don't like your local representatives, work to vote them out.  Harder to do now that the sUPREME cOURT has ruled polictical offices are for sale and dark money has come into play.
