Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has publicly voiced concerns that the push within the Democratic Party to replace President Joe Biden in the upcoming election extends beyond him to also oust Vice President Kamala Harris.
In a series of statements and a notable late-night Instagram rant, Ocasio-Cortez criticized fellow Democrats, suggesting that those advocating for Biden to not seek reelection are also plotting to prevent Harris from leading the ticket. She accused party 'elites' of not being transparent about their intentions and expressed frustration over the internal dynamics and discussions she has witnessed.
