Musk Oxen

One unique characteristics of Musk oxen is how they protect their young from wolves. When under attack the adult Musk oxen form a protective circle around their calves  facing outward. Thus the wolves can’t enjoy Musk veal for dinner.

There is a perfect analogy between the current Democrat House of Representatives and this Musk-ox defense mechanism. Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer and the rest of the Democrat senior leadership have formed a protective circle around their rebellious freshman Reps ... Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ayanana Pressley and Rashida Tlaib ... and are making faux excuses for their socialistic or anti-Semitic diatribes.

Admittedly, the wolves in this case, our left-wing media, are not very ferocious ... but, nevertheless, these tyro firebrands are well protected.
