Because for some reason we are still following the leadership of the establishment Democrats and that is anathema to them.
They were chosen to be weak, to play good cop to Republican bad cop, to not change back anything Republicans have done let alone improve things and threaten the privilege the rich have chiseled from us all.
The right wing has been doing that very thing with campaigns against activist judges for decades and it has been relatively successful along with stacking the courts with Federalist Society hacks chosen decide with the party over country, specifically to change the country old dynamic in the US where it does it did not matter what party nominated what judge, they would in their lifetime appointments represent the people and their interests not that party.
They probably have career ending blackmail that would force these guys to resign If released on top of choosing them to be hacks.
Without new leadership doing anything politically is a complete waste at best and often exposes you to the party machine in power for persecution while receiving no protection from dems.
Like voting officials in 2020. How are we still fighting under the edtablishment dems' banner?
