“#AOC has a point on aging House leadership<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is right about one thing: It\u2019s time for the House\u2019s Democratic leadership to upgrade to a newer model.<\/p>\n

In a podcast<\/a> published Wednesday by The Intercept, AOC said it\u2019s time for Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her team to pass the reins to younger leaders. Fair enough: She\u2019s in her 80s, as are the No. 2 and 3 House Democrats.<\/p>\n

Where the Bronx-Queens firebrand (31, incidentally) is off is in complaining that there are no clear successors thanks to a failure to groom younger leaders.<\/p>\n

In fact, AOC\u2019s fellow New Yorker, Brooklyn Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, is one likely next speaker as No. 4 in the leadership. He\u2019s just 50 \u2014 but AOC would rather support a primary challenge to him than see him move up.<\/p>\n

The fact is, it\u2019s up to ambitious politicians to claw their own way up, building alliances and friendships with their peers. AOC just lost a vote to serve on the House Energy and Commerce Committee because she\u2019d rather stab her colleagues in the back than work with them. They might want to ask Jeffries for some advice.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
