Psaki, 46, argued that Democrats missed a “big opportunity” to implement some of the key takeaways from the 2024 election by snubbing the 35-year-old, “media-savvy” congresswoman.
“Why does that matter?” she continued. “This is one of the few committees in Congress that actually generates national attention or media coverage. Under Jamie Raskin, it became a critical platform for countering Republican misinformation. And while I have deep, deep respect for Speaker Pelosi… and nothing against Congressman Connolly at all, this felt like an obvious chance to apply some of the lessons we should’ve learned from the November election.
Connolly, a 74-year-old Virginia Democrat, defeated the “Squad” rep last week in a 131-84 vote to become ranking member on the high-profile panel – which will be tasked with handling oversight of the incoming Trump administration. Meanwhile, Connolly argued that the old versus young debate was a “false narrative, frankly, propounded by the media.”
