Turmoil: AOC’s chief of staff and spokesman both leaving her congressional office

Thomas Lifson  "What’s Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez going to use for brains now that her brain trust is leaving her congressional office?  Saikat Chakrabarti, the multi-millionaire entrepreneur who recruited Ocasio-Cortez to run for Congress and who became her chief of staff and Svengali, is leaving her office, it was revealed Friday. Also departing her congressional payroll is her Communications Director, Corbin Trent."
. . .
At right: Chakrabarti wearing a t-shirt picturing Subhash Chandra Bose, an advocate for Indian independence from Britain, who allied with Hitler and the Japanese during WWII.
. . . 
"Recall that Chakrabarti and his Justice Democrats colleagues held auditions for promising candidates to run against moderate Democrat incumbents in deep blue districts, reportedly screening a thousand people and finding Ocasio-[Cortez] and others. Seven of the candidates backed by the group won seats on the House:  Raúl Grijalva, Ro Khanna, Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Pramila Jayapal." . . .

Which guy told her to do this?

UK Daily Mail: AOC's top staffers RESIGN: Firebrand Democrat's Chief of Staff and her Communications Director announce they are both leaving her team after a string of controversies  . . . "House Speaker Nancy Pelosi critiqued members of the progressive arm of the Democratic party in an interview with The New York Times.
"She called out four female Democrats known as the 'Squad' describing them as having a 'public whatever and their Twitter world' who she claimed have no following or power.

"The 'Squad' consists of Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib and Ayanna Pressley - who also faced controversial comments from President Trump.

"It would later be revealed that Pelosi also warned colleagues not to tweet about other members.

"The statement particularly aimed at Ocasio-Cortez and her team, which could have referred to Chakrabarti's comments online. 

"The New York congresswoman later told the Washington Post that she thought Pelosi's words were 'outright disrespectful.'   

"AOC's office have since confirmed to the Examiner that Chakrabarti's departure was decided before and unrelated to the public clashes with House leadership." . . .
