Hogg stirred controversy within the party by advocating for primary challengers to defeat incumbent Democrats, leading to his ouster. In response, he founded a political action committee (PAC) called Leaders We Deserve to support such efforts. Hogg criticized the DNC for applying what he sees as a &#8220;double standard&#8221; and argued that his actions were comparable to conventional leadership PAC activities. Despite his departure, he remains willing to collaborate with the DNC.<\/p>\n<p>Hogg supports young progressive candidates such as Zohran Mamdani, a New York City mayoral candidate who faces opposition including racism, and Deja Foxx, an Arizona congressional candidate. While Foxx recently lost a special election by a wide margin, mamdani secured the Democratic nomination and is positioned as a strong contender in the mayoral race against former Governor Andrew Cuomo and others. Hogg emphasized the lack of boldness and support for competition within the Democratic party and condemned racist attacks against mamdani, noting that criticisms often target Mamdani&#8217;s identity rather than his policies.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Hogg confident he&rsquo;ll be &lsquo;vindicated in four years&rsquo; after DNC ouster<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2175526\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Former <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/dnc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Democratic National Committee<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/campaign\/5404400-hogg-dnc-departure-double-standard\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Vice Chairman David Hogg said<\/a> Wednesday at the Hill Nation Summit that he &ldquo;will be vindicated in four years&rdquo; after Democrats removed him from his seat.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/david-hogg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Hogg left <\/a>the DNC after his election was vacated over a procedural rule on gender diversity.&nbsp;He stirred controversy within the party after calling for primary challengers to help vote out Democratic incumbents.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/3473647\/no-energy-cuomo-does-not-have-a-case-to-stay-in-nyc-race-joe-concha\/\">&#8216;No energy&#8217; Cuomo does not have a case to stay in NYC race: Joe Concha<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/3473265\/globalize-the-intifada-what-to-know-zohran-mamdani\/\">&#8216;Globalize the intifada&#8217;: What to know about the phrase Mamdani won&#8217;t condemn<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/3471651\/john-reid-virginia-lieutenant-governor-election-2025\/\">Virginia GOP candidate for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/utah-blocks-land-sale-to-company-tied-to-chinese-government\/\" title=\"Utah blocks land sale to company tied to Chinese government\">lieutenant governor releases child care policy plan<\/a> to bolster families<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>He started his own PAC, Leaders We Deserve, to do just that.<\/p>\n<p>Hogg called out the controversy as a &ldquo;double standard that was selectively enforced.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I would argue that what I&rsquo;m doing is not that different from someone having a leadership PAC that gives against an incumbent,&rdquo; he added.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">David Hogg, with Leaders We Deserve PAC, gets video of Deja Foxx, Democratic candidate for the CD 7 special election, as she speaks at her GOTV rally, in Tucson, Arizona, Friday, July 11, 2025.

The 25-year-old Foxx decisively lost by more than 40 points on Tuesday in a special election to fill former Rep.

He&rsquo;s in a good position to win New York City&rsquo;s top office after capturing the Democratic nomination. His chief competition will be old rival former Gov.
