Sean Patrick Maloney (D-NY), head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, slammed Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) in an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/11\/10\/nyregion\/sean-patrick-maloney.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">interview<\/a> with The New York Times on Thursday following his loss in this week\u2019s midterm elections.<\/p>\n<p>Maloney laughingly blamed the media for Democrats losing U.S. House seats throughout deep blue New York before acknowledging that Governor Kathy Hochul hurt down ballot Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>When asked about Ocasio-Cortez blaming Democrat leadership for the party losing seats in New York, Maloney responded, \u201cThe last time I ran into A.O.C., we were beating her endorsed candidate two to one in a primary, and I didn\u2019t see her one minute of these midterms helping our House majority.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, I\u2019m not sure what kind of advice she has, but I\u2019m sure she\u2019ll be generous with it,\u201d Maloney continued. \u201cBut let\u2019s be clear, she had almost nothing to do with what turned out to be an historic defense of our majority. Didn\u2019t pay a dollar of dues. Didn\u2019t do anything for our frontline candidates except give them money when they didn\u2019t want it from her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are other voices who should be heard, especially when suburban voters have clearly rejected the ideas that she\u2019s most associated with, from defunding the police on down,\u201d he concluded. \u201cShe\u2019s an important voice in our politics. But when it comes to passing our agenda through the Congress, or standing our ground on the political battlefield, she was nowhere to be found.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ocasio-Cortez quickly <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AOC\/status\/1590873761783447557\">responded<\/a> to the interview, claiming without evidence that Maloney \u201ccourted\u201d her for donations for swing district candidates.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSPM courted me for donations to swing races &#038; it was the 1st thing I did this term,\u201d she claimed. \u201cOver a quarter million for Dems this cycle, DCCC facilitated some &#038; now he denies it. \u2013 If he isn\u2019t aware of my visit to CA &#038; efforts we put in, that\u2019s on him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat I love about his claim that we gave frontline members \u2018donations they didn\u2019t want\u2019: a) the VAST majority were good w\/ early financial support to position themselves early b) for the few who didn\u2019t want our help + got it, where do you think we got the $ info to give? DCCC!\u201d she claimed. \u201cAs for him \u2018not seeing me\u2019 \u2013 perhaps it\u2019s because he as a party leader chose not to see nor value prominent members of his party for years.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLastly, many moderate dems + leaders made it very clear that our help was not welcome nor wanted,\u201d she concluded. \u201cDespite our many, many offers. Yet found ways to try to help from afar. So for them to blame us for respecting their approach in their districts is laughable.
