AOC spilling tea on Nancy Pelosi in new book on The Squad

"Ocasio-Cortez also reportedly told Grim that Pelosi grew furious with her on a “rare call” between the two when AOC pointed out that no one had asked her how her upstart campaign managed to win the 2018 race against longtime incumbent Joe Crowley, who had the backing of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC). She told Grim: “I told her DCCC campaign vendors sucked, and that it was strange that after I beat Crowley not a single person bothered to ask how I beat him. … She got so mad at me.”

After Republicans took back control of the House in last year’s general elections, Pelosi decided to abdicate her role in House leadership. New York Rep. Hakeem Jeffries took her place, and Ocasio-Cortez told Grim that, at the time, she believed “things would get worse.” In the year or so since then, her experience has actually improved.

“Senior members talk to me, [committee] chairs are nice to me, people want to work together,” she told Grim. “I’m shocked. I couldn’t even get floor time before.”
