Missouri Democrat Rep. Cori Bush lost her congressional seat to a challenger on Tuesday night, making her the second member of the far-left “Squad” to do so.

Wesley Bell, the candidate for St. Louis County prosecutor, led Bush by double digits, with 54.9% of the vote to Bush’s 41.8% when Decision Desk HQ called the race.

Bush has been ridiculed on social media in the wake of her primary defeat by Republicans.

Pro-Trump comedian Terrance K. Williams posted on X, formerly Twitter: “A ‘BLACK JOB’ IS SOMETHING CORI BUSH DOES NOT HAVE. OH HAPPY DAY! OH HAPPY DAY.

“She is the Second Squad member to lose her seat! I can’t wait until they are all gone. They are all full of hate [and] stupidity. I’m laughing so hard. Who’s laughing with me?” he added.

In a sarcastic post, Florida GOP rep. Matt Gaetz, who is on the House Judiciary Committee along with Bush, wrote: “I will miss Cori Bush missing every committee meeting.”

Ryan Fournier, a co-founder of the Students for Trump group, posted: “The Squad’s Cori Bush has LOST her primary. Join me in saying GOOD RIDDANCE! Hamas might be hiring, Cori!”

While referencing the campaign speech from Vice President Kamala Harris and her newly announced running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, actor Michael Rapaport, a vocal Israel supporter, added: “Tonight at the rally they said let’s bring back ‘JOY’ to politics and boom CORI BUSH is done with Politics…. I feel JOY all of a sudden.”

Following the Ferguson riots, in which she actively participated, Bush entered the local political scene. She has since persisted in fabricating events regarding Michael Brown to further her political goals.

After defeating William “Lacy” Clay Jr. in the 2020 election, she has been the representative for Missouri’s 1st Congressional District, which covers St. Louis City and a portion of the surrounding St. Louis County, since 2021. Since then, she has gained notoriety by swiftly joining forces with radical Left lawmakers like Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI).

Following the October 7th massacre, which was an unprecedented and unprovoked attack on Israel by terrorists affiliated with Hamas, Bush aligned himself with pro-Hamas demonstrators who threatened Jewish students on American college campuses and blamed Israel for the ensuing conflict.

Since then, the Missouri congresswoman has been at the center of controversy for allegedly giving thousands to her husband in exchange for “security,” while she calls for fewer police protections for others while violent crime soars in her home district.

Bush’s defeat follows that of another candidate eliminated from the primary 1,000 miles away, Rep. Jamaal Bowman. Bowman is most remembered for sounding the alarm to halt an unfavorable vote from moving forward, but he also lost by a large margin after endorsing pro-Hamas demonstrators on college campuses following October 7.

Both Bush and Bowman have asserted that the reason their campaigns failed is not because of their extreme ideals but rather because of funding from the pro-Israel organization AIPAC.
