The House of Representatives’s far-left “Squad” is likely to lose another member after last month’s embarrassing defeat of Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY).
Socialist Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) is polling narrowly behind her primary opponent Wesley Bell, who had polled below Bush by double digits earlier this year. Bell is St. Louis County’s prosecuting attorney, and he also leads Bush in favorability and job performance ratings.
Bush has faced numerous controversies during her time in elected office, the most recent of which included falling for a parody social media account called “Rabbi Linda Goldstein” that pretends to be the chief rabbi of Gaza and make cartoonishly antisemitic posts in an attempt to trick progressives into sharing them.
“Goldstein” reached out to Bush’s campaign in June with a proposal to hold a fundraiser. “I’ve been bouncing around different cities since my congregation was displaced from Gaza after Israel’s invasion on October 7,” the prankster wrote in an email to Ronika Moody, the campaign’s finance and engagement director.
