New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Monday unveiled new details on the so-called "Green New Deal" she plans to introduce in a matter of days, as she worked behind-the-scenes to rally congressional support for the proposal that could cost as much as $7 trillion.

Ocasio-Cortez, who is set to unveil the plan with Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Ed Markey, told her fellow representatives in a letter that the Green New Deal calls for a "national, social, industrial and economic mobilization at a scale not seen since World War II."

California was bombed by the Japanese using balloon bombs. Jap subs shelled the US coast with submarines. Defense emplacements still exist as a result of this action.

No, the balloon bombs crossed the Pacific and a few made it to Oregon, Washington State, and perhaps Vancouver, as they had no navigation other than the wind currents.

“...was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?!?!...”

Seriously, if aoc is looking for a WWII mobilization, she might want to back off of the wealthy and the corporate types. What the gov has been hawking in public indoctrination facilities since just after the war is that the gov pulled off the win (from the logistics side). In actuality it was the ability, capability, and capacity provided by industry. William Knudsen (Big Bill), from the auto industry, and Henry Kaiser (admittedly a ‘new deal’ guy) from the construction and ship building industry, that were most instrumental in pulling off the logistic victory.

“FREEDOM’S FORGE” by Arthur Herman is a tribute to the potential industrial might of America and its industrialists. Do they still exist?

Is aoc what we have to look forward to?

She doing a HS science project?

Clear to me she doesn’t have the brains to be a HS grad. She doing remedial work or going for her GED???

I think half the country is that stupid or just apathetic.

They really want that utopian paradise where the government provides for their every need. I am shocked when I speak with young people and they seem to believe such a thing is possible.

That would be the only “Manhattan” project you can trust her with – maybe not even that…

Why on earth would you want to accept the Leftists propaganda and honor the idiotic little bartender with a three letter acronym?

Normally, in this world, someone has to accomplish something of substance to so recognized with such familiarity.

And then ask her which of the 57 States was bombed by the Germans?

That's easy - California!

Nah. Pretty sure the Germans sank the USS Arizona somewhere in Ohio.

Be interesting to see her bank deposits so we can see who owns her.

We know she was broke when she arrived in Swamp Town. She may already be a millionaire for pushing a steaming like this.

“First ask her what years in which WWII was fought.”

I’m sure she is very aware when it was fought. She grew up hearing the stories of how President Roosevelt ordered Union forces to attack Confederate forces after the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.
Her family proudly displays a Nazi flag that was captured during the German assault at Gettysburg.

I think Oregon was firebombed by a Jap blimp. I don’t think the Germans hit California

I believe means of this plan are more important than the end of this plan.

IOW....

“GREAT PLAN! LOOK HOW MUCH SUPPORT WE HAVE! VOTES! VOTES! VOTES!

Now let’s tax, regulate, redistribute, tax, regulate, redistribute...

We don’t give a crap about renewable energy or poor people. HAHAHAHAHA” ....
