The key political partnership of the Millennial left was born over noodles. Saikat Chakrabarti met Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at Potjanee, a Thai restaurant near his apartment in the West Village, in March 2017.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. and Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. got into a sparring match on Twitter on Tuesday over a comment he made about the congresswoman at CPAC last weekend.

I just spoke to Ola and Abel Osundairo on the phone. It was brief but they stressed the following. “We are not racist. We are not homophobic. And we are not anti-Trump. We were born and raised in Chicago and are American citizens.”

British opposition chief and chairman of the UK Labour Party Jeremy Corbyn reached out to a freshman Democrat congresswoman in the hopes of forming a left-wing trans-Atlantic alliance. Corbyn called Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the 29-year-old self-described Democratic Socialist who won last November’s election for the 14th congressional district in New York after she defeated 10-term incumbent Joe Crowley in the Democratic primary. Ocasio-Cortez’s surprised win propelled her almost overnight to celebrity status, turning her into one of the most popular figures in the left-wing of the Democratic party. In a tweet late Sunday night, Corbyn revealed that he had called Ocasio-Cortez...

New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said the Jewish community needs to be protected against its concerns about anti-Semitism coming from the White House. In an interview with CNN’s Jason Carroll on Saturday from the march sponsored by the Women’s March Alliance Ocasio-Cortez responded to a question about what she would say to those who have concerns about anti-Semitism within the national Women’s March group. “I think that concerns of anti-Semitism with the current administration in the White House are absolutely valid and we need to make sure that we are protecting the Jewish community and all those that feel...
