Remember when the Democratic Party establishment (There is no Democratic Party establishment) decided to f%$# over Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and appoint a dying septuagenarian as the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee?
If you don't, you can click the link, but in any case, Gerry Connolly has predictably died of esophageal cancer, and a new ranking member needs to be selected, and this time, they selected a 47 year old 2 term Congressman from California, Robert Garcia to take the role.
Not only is he relatively young, but his record in Congress is fairly progressive, notwithstanding his past history as a young Republican.
He defeated Stephen Lynch (D-MA), yet another septuagenarian in the process.
Garcia has said little about the consequence of his being selected at a relatively young age, which is probably all for the best.
