Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and her “Squad” members have all made political careers out of being vocal “Social Justice Warriors” for the far-Left.
But when the misconduct comes from their own camp, they won’t say a peep.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., is the latest to go silent after a major controversy erupted in her office.
According to The Washington Free Beacon, Michigan Democratic strategist T.J. Bucholz has been accused of sexual harassment by five of his former employees at a public affairs firm.
Detroit Free Press reportedly obtained evidence of text messages from Bucholz to the unidentified women, with explicit messages such as “you’re so f****** hot. Marry me.” He has also been accused of blackmailing an ex-staffer with sexually compromising photos and on another occasion suggesting to a Democratic activist that they participate in a “sexual threesome.”
Tlaib and Bucholz are closely linked
Bucholz is so close an ally of Tlaib, the newspaper said, he was largely responsible for the young congresswoman’s 2018 House election victory.

“Couldn’t have done it without you!” she tweeted after winning the race that landed her on Capitol Hill.
Talib isn’t alone in her links to Bucholz.
Ocasio-Cortez paid Bucholz’ firm more than $25,000 in 2018 and 2019 combined.
Tlaib has been quiet amid the scandal. It was only last fall when she vocally introduced a new resolution geared toward both promoting women in politics and curbing the violence against them in political circles.

Ocasio-Cortez and fellow “Squad” members Reps. Ayanna Presley and Ilhan Omar helped introduce the measure.
As for Bucholz, he was reportedly hospitalized after a suicide attempt, according to a local Michigan newspaper. The Democratic strategist had apologized to the women for his actions, telling the Detroit Free Press that he will continue trying to make amends.
