Democrats keep claiming that the economy is doing great under Biden, but if that\u2019s true, why is the far left \u2018Justice Democrats\u2019 group laying off half of its staff?<\/p>\n

This is the group responsible for bringing us wonderful members of Congress like AOC, Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar.<\/p>\n

Their cash crunch isn\u2019t a mystery. People don\u2019t usually make political donations when they\u2019re worried about basic things like food.<\/p>\n

\u2018We\u2019re Not in a Great Place\u2019: Democrat Group Behind the \u2018Squad\u2019 Lays Off Half Its Staff<\/strong><\/p>\n

A prominent left-wing organization laid off half its staff last month, a further sign that Democratic groups are struggling to stay afloat.<\/p>\n

Justice Democrats, a progressive group founded in 2017 following the failed presidential run of socialist Vermont senator Bernie Sanders, in mid-July let go 9 of its 20 staffers, Politico reported. The group works to help elect far-left candidates and is largely credited with helping create the \u201cSquad\u201d of House lawmakers that includes Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) and Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.).<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s no secret that Democratic and progressive organizations like us are in a difficult fundraising environment right now,\u201d Alexandra Rojas, Justice Democrats\u2019 executive director, told Politico last month. \u201cWe had to make tough decisions to remain one of the most impactful progressive organizations in the country for years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

Progressives are worried about the state of the movement in light of fundraising and growth struggles.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have huge champions like Bernie Sanders, AOC, Ilhan Omar, who are able to be successful political fundraisers,\u201d a progressive House aide told the Huffington Post. \u201cBut movement-wise, we\u2019re not in a great place right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Justice Democrats are not the only ones on the left feeling this economic pain. <\/p>\n

Politico<\/a> reports:<\/p>\n

\u2018Whistling past the graveyard\u2019: Dem fear grows over massive grassroots fundraising hit<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of the best online fundraising days for Democrats this year was the day of Joe Biden\u2019s campaign launch \u2014 but even that day\u2019s haul was meager compared to his campaign kickoff four years ago.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s among the findings of an analysis of fundraising for the first half of the year through ActBlue, the party\u2019s primary donation processor. Small-dollar giving at the federal level totaled $312 million in the first half of 2023 \u2014 a drop-off of more than $30 million compared to this point in the 2020 cycle. The platform also had 32 percent fewer donors in the second quarter this year compared to four years prior, although its total fundraising increased slightly due to several factors, including more recurring donors and greater giving to non-federal groups.<\/p>\n

Democrats are becoming victims of Biden\u2019s economic policies.<\/p>\n

What a shame.<\/p>\n
