The progressive wing of the Dem party has always hated the machine wing. And as that machine wing pulled all hands on deck to get rid of Trump, they are now paying the piper, in that all of those progressives who were put in office are now looking for blood and to advance the progressive agenda.

As Matt points out, there are only a couple of semi-serious allegations here, most fall into the same category that the allegations against Trump fell, unsubstantiated BS. But there is blood in the water, and you never let a crisis go to waste.
Don't stop to think that Cuomo, if his reputation is left (ahem) unmolested, would be a potential candidate for 2024, and the party knows it. They want to clear the deck now.
If Trump is riding a wave of MAGA again, and Joe has more than one piece of breakfast on his face... the Dems will need an alpha male to slug it out with the Donald. Cuomo is one of the few with the (D) next to his name who could dish it out as well as take it.
Forgot to mention the whole fucked up rent moratorium was driven by the progressive branch of the party, not to mention all of the various UBI in all but name programs that are currently driving our economy straight into a ditch, along with the cancellation of the fuel pipelines. Those are all progressive wet dreams and are putting the working class, who used to be the backbone of the D's, straight into the arms of Republicans.

I think the total overkill of Nina Turner shows there is no such piper. Progressives who havent been coopted have been neutered.
Quite sadly, i agree.
With the reelection of the squaddies, the takeover of most blue wall AG and DAs, we are far, far from rid of the progressive menace.
Indeed, Leticia James who is running this operation is one of their "finest" members.
