Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., on Tuesday tore into a Republican colleague who suggested the so-called Green New Deal she is championing is elitist.
This is not an elitist issue; this is a quality-of-life issue, Ocasio-Cortez said during a House Financial Services Committee meeting. You want to tell people that their concern and their desire for clean air and clean water is elitist? Tell that to the kids in the South Bronx, which are suffering from the highest rates of childhood asthma in the country."
Tell that to the families in Flint whose kids have their blood ascending in lead levels, their brains are damaged for the rest of their lives, she continued. Call them elitist.
Moments earlier, Rep. Sean Duffy, R-Wis., blasted the ambitious environmental plan to move the country toward zero carbon emissions.

Their water has been good for some time now. Really tired of Dems crying about it,
She is no joke, folks. Her level of education or more importantly her indoctrination and purposefully trained stupidity, is exactly what is being churned out in our failed public schools.
JoMa
How often does AOC ride the Subway system in New York City?
Well, she did audition for the role. Out of 10,000 submissions, the Justice Democrats chose her. A Puppet with no gravitas.
Idiocracy, the movie, now in real life.
Funny when we hear the rat party is all emotion, here is the example, keep talking honey your a gift
This is not an elitist issue; this is a quality-of-life issue, Ocasio-Cortez said
I don’t have to wonder what our quality of life will be like after the government rips $83 trillion out of our wallets to support the communist wet dream she espouses, I have Venezuela as a real time example and numerous historical examples.
So C02 emissions foul air and water and not just causes global warming? Some gas.
AOC has a tell. Whenever she is challenged, she rattles off lib talking points as non sequiturs. Flint? Asthma?
ps
There is no correlation between CO2 and asthma. Totally made up.
I guess we shouldnt tell her about all the lead water piping in Washington DC
It would really be interesting to find out what she actually knows about the Flint water crisis and why many of these US cities are ruined. She needs to sit down with Candace Owens and get an education.
I don´t understand why she is so obsessed about Green Nude Eels.
Maybe she likes Sushi or something.
Since the Democrat-Socialists are the party of death to start with, shouldn’t they celebrate there will only be 12 years of suffering, then we all die anyway? See? Problem solved!
I imagine that she speaks after inhailing helium. In fact, I would like to see someone put up a YouTube site that has all of her pontificating with her voice adjusted 3 octaves up.
I suspect that the left will use her as a blunt instrument for the next 50 years.
If the Green Deal is so great, why didnt the Dems in the Senate vote yes to support it?
If she can go to china and straighten them out over pollution issues I would be impressed.
Can that buffoon name one?
Is that for real?
Blasphemy.
I nabbed the image off the Federalist.
