Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

She's getting there;


Actor and republican James Woods tweeted a video of Cortez responding to critics of her Green New Deal, which was juxtaposed with footage of Bregoli, 15, when she told audience members on Dr. Phil to 'Cash me outside' in 2016.

AOC said:
And I'm like, you try. You do it. Cuz you're not. Cuz you're not. So, until you do it, I'm the boss. How 'bout dat?

:hysterical:

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter: "I still live in my hood and literally instagrammed from my apartment tonight. A man was just arrested last week with a stockpile of guns specifically trying to kill me & others, so yeah I’m not gonna disclose my personal address or tell people when I move. Sorry!… https://t.co/WHpkryr7At"

Group That Sponsored Anti-Ocasio-Cortez Billboard Tied to Koch and Other Billionaires – Sludge
The Job Creators Network claims it’s “the voice of Main Street,” but a review of its donors and partners says it’s anything but.

...
Although JCN, a nonprofit that seeks to “educate Americans on the vital role of free enterprise and entrepreneurship,” claims on its website to be on the side of Main Street, it’s in fact a front group for the interests of wealthy business executives. The nonprofit is linked to and funded by several wealthy corporate leaders who are also Republican political megadonors and oppose workers’ rights, including collective bargaining. A deleted page on the group’s website showed dozens of CEOs who partnered with JCN.

Ocasio-Cortez was right when she tweeted on Thursday that two of the biggest funders of JCN are Home Depot co-founder and billionaire Bernie Marcus and Donald Trump megadonor and billionaire Robert Mercer. (LOTS of other such details snipped for brevity)

I'm still waiting for Ocassio Cortez to truly nutter out, and for me, she hasn't yet. She's still a breath of fresh air to me. I enjoy her "real person" attitude of not being a creature grown in a Washington lab. Sure, sometimes that means she is clueless about some things, but that's fine, so long as she listens to experts before actually putting pen to legislation.

Enough with your pointless posts. It''s clear you have nothing to say here. Are you just trying to goad people now?

Not at all. I was replying to Jolly Penguin initially. My point being, she may "truly nutter out" eventually. She is getting there, in my opinion.

And what credentials can you present that makes your opinion credible?
 
The insane US right calls anyone on the sane left a kook.

It is a meaningless statement.

The same as you m8.

I feel sort of bad because I saw your positive rep comment for me for dogging TS after posting this. Oh well! Seriously, dude, the chick would cut your balls off in a match of either wit or intellect. Sorry, but it's true.

Thanks for the rep points just the same. :) You can use this post to minus them back out if you like. :)
 
I find it quite funny that the same people who are so willing to constantly criticize one, young, inexperienced woman who has very little power, don't seem bothered about a president that has told outright lies about 9000 times since he's been elected. 9000 that we know of. I'm pretty sure he's lied to Melania thousands of times too. ;)
 
AOC comes after consumer credit bureaus:

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter: "I understand difference of opinion, but dark distortions of position help no one.

Lis Power on Twitter: "An *actual* narrative on Fox News right now is that @AOC has a "no child policy" and wants to "get rid of children." The playbook: 1) Lie about something she says 2) make it into something "extreme" or 'radical' 3) repeat the lie over and over… https://t.co/y5IPWe5jxY"

Ivanka Trump slams Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal
The first daughter, who is a senior White House aide, told Fox News host Steve Hilton that job guarantees and an elevated minimum wage — both pledges of the progressive proposal — wouldn't be popular, according to an excerpt of an interview that will air Sunday.

"I don’t think most Americans, in their heart, want to be given something," Trump said in the interview clip released Monday. "I’ve spent a lot of time traveling around this country over the last four years. People want to work for what they get."

"So, I think that this idea of a guaranteed minimum is not something most people want," she added. "They want the ability to be able to secure a job. They want the ability to live in a country where there’s the potential for upward mobility."
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter: "As a person who actually worked for tips & hourly wages in my life, instead of having to learn about it 2nd-hand, I can tell you that most people want to be paid enough to live. A living wage isn’t a gift, it’s a right. Workers are often paid far less than the value they create.… https://t.co/t2ifKliuYc"
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter: "In fact, wages are so low today compared to actual worker productivity that they are no longer the reflections of worker value as they used to be. Productivity has grown 6.2x more than pay: [url]https://t.co/Zh5n46EfPQ… https://t.co/ijJ5ioWD0u"[/url]
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter: "Imagine attacking a Jobs Guarantee by saying ‘people prefer to earn money.’ ???… "
The Daily Beast on Twitter: ""Ivanka says she opposes @AOC's #GreenNewDeal because she feels people prefer to earn money...One has to wonder if she’s doing this on purpose, or if she’s really so far up her own ass that she’s tasting her Skinny Vanilla Lattes twice" — @morninggloria https://t.co/0a3SyIYUZV"

Some folks prefer sweet lies over plain truths.
