UK Daily Mail ^ | April 16, 2019 | Danyal Hussain

Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has slammed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for being an authoritarian, 'Trump-like figure' while suggesting that US military and economic aid to Israel should be cut.

The Representative for New York, a rising star in her party, has insisted that the idea of cutting aid to Israel should 'definitely be on the table'.

The 29-year-old has been criticised by the Jewish Democratic Council of America for the comments, with the organisation saying that US-Israel ties 'must supersede politics'.

Where is that in the Constitution?

Yep. Occasional Cortex has a tin ear as did obamer. But Obamer didn’t draw attention to himself in his early years like Olive Oil is.

How deep will she dig before it collapses on her never to be heard from again

Sadly, that's coming on way too fast. I wanted her in office for 2-3 terms, to keep making the Dems reveal who they really are... but she has done an amazing job thus far, so even if she quits tomorrow, she should still be put in the RNC Hall of Fame. NOBODY in the Legislative Branch has done more to help turn D and I into R than this lady!

You know, they really aren’t so bad. Trump incites them, drives them insane and makes them behave badly. Get rid of Trump and they will return to being the reasonable people they really are.
