There was some encouraging news from Missouri on Tuesday night as primary voters ousted the vile Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO).
Wesley Bell defeated Bush with 51.2% of the vote to her 45.6%, according to the latest figures.
After her defeat, Cori Bush launched an angry, unhinged tirade, making threatening remarks.
Transcript:
Pulling me away from my position as Congresswoman, all you did was take some of the strings off.
Let’s be clear! Let’s be clear! Let’s be clear! Let’s be clear! Let’s be clear! Let’s be clear! Let’s be clear! Let’s be clear! Let’s talk about what it really is! Because see, now I don’t have to worry about some strings that I have attached and as much as I love my job. But all they did was radicalize me, and so now they need to be afraid!
See, now they about to see this other Cory, this other side, because let me say this.
I just grew up a whole lot more over the last few weeks. I just grew up a whole different way. And so, what they are about to get, they think. So the thing is this. The thing is this, I don’t think that anything, there is nothing that happens in my life that happens in vain. So once this happened, it’s because it was meant to happen.
And let me say, it’s because there’s a lot of the work that I need to do. And let me say this, AIPAC, I’m coming to tear your kingdom down.

Both Bush and Bell began their political careers as protest leaders during the 2014 Mike Brown riots.
Bush consistently expressed anti-Israel views in her comments and policies, while Bell received an endorsement from AIPAC.
Bush’s recent rant was exceptionally angry and unhinged. She appears to believe that losing the election has freed her to do whatever she wishes. However, she just lost whatever power she had.
Bush’s former fellow Squad member, Jamaal Bowman, was also ousted in his primary.
