TRUTH BOMB!~ AOC Throws Former Chief Of Staff Chakrabarti Under Bus For 'Divisive' Rhetoric

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) slammed her ex-chief of staff Saikat Chakrabarti on Wednesday over his 'divisive' comments comparing moderate Democrats to southern slave-owning Democrats.
In a now-deleted June 27 tweet, Chakrabarti accused centrist dems of being "hell-bent to do to black and brown people today what the old Southern Democrats did in the 40s."

"I think it was divisive," AOC told the New York Daily News. "I believe in criticizing stances, but I don’t believe in specifically targeting members."

Chakrabarti resigned abruptly last week to join progressive climate change group New Concensus, which promotes AOC's Green New Deal.
He's also under federal investigation in connection with two political action committees he founded, according to the New York Post.

The two PACs being probed, Brand New Congress and Justice Democrats, were both set up by Chakrabarti to support progressive candidates across the country.
But they funneled more than $1 million in political donations into two private companies that Chakrabarti also incorporated and controlled, according to Federal Election Commission filings and a complaint filed in March with the regulatory agency.
In 2016 and 2017, the PACs raised about $3.3 million, mostly from small donors. A third of the cash was transferred to two private companies whose names are similar to one of the PACs — Brand New Congress LLC and Brand New Campaign LLC — federal campaign filings show. -New York Post
