Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid: Progressive Insiders Want Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to Run for President
PJ Media ^ | 29 Dec 2019 | Michael Van Der Galien

Posted on 12/29/2019 7:22:42 PM PST by Rummyfan

This is downright frightening: according to leftwing website Politico, progressive insiders and activists "are increasingly whispering about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez inheriting the movement one day -- and running for the White House with it behind her."

We on the right love to laugh at Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, or AOC as she's also known. She's a fool. She favors policies that America can't even almost afford. She's so radically pro-open borders that she'll destroy the Democratic Party's chances of winning next year if she becomes one of its most vocal spokespeople.

However, there is a major problem: progressive activists and other kinds of leftwing radicals are starting to push her to play a more prominent role in national politics. See this article at Politico.com for example. In it, some (purposefully chosen) leftist activists and "insiders" are interviewed, all of whom say that AOC is the future of their movement -- and, they hope, of the Democratic Party.

She is a blithering idiot and an intolerable moron. No o e will trust her with this country, no me! NYers already hate her ass. California is the only place an idiot like this will thrive.

Good Lord! I have found myself thinking more than once lately, if I had to abandon ship, where in this world could I go? The prospects are slim.

AOC mentor——Muslim Democrat candidate Cenk Uyger endorses sex with animals, says it should be legal…

Bernie Rescinds Endorsement Of Dem Candidate After “Legalize Bestiality” Video Surfaces

Popular progressive political commentator Cenk Uygur is running for Democratic California Rep. Katie Hill’s seat, who resigned amid scandal in October after allegations she slept with a congressional staffer and a campaign staffer, and nude photographs of her surfaced.

But “The Young Turks” founder is already finding himself at the center of bizarre controversy involving past statements he made over bestiality during a live program, causing Sen. Bernie Sanders to retract his highly sought after endorsement a mere day after announcing it.

In a Young Turks segment from 2013, he talks about how “hot” women from the Dominican are in somewhat typical remarks of his over the years that fellow progressives have lambasted him as sexist for. But then the segment took an insane turn. “Here comes the controversial part I shouldn’t say,” Uygur said, according to the resurfaced video. “I believe that if I were the benevolent dictator of the world, I would legalize bestiality where you are giving, you are pleasuring the animal.”

AOC mentor: Past remarks on women were attempt ‘to be a stupid, politically incorrect Republican’
The Hill ^ | 12 03 2019 | Joe Concha
Posted on 12/3/2019, 12:38:22 PM by yesthatjallen

AOC mentor, Young Turks founder, Cenk Uygur, who is seeking a congressional seat in California, told CNN on Monday that his past remarks about women were an attempt “to be a stupid politically incorrect Republican.”

“First of all, I wrote that stuff 19 years ago; I deleted it 15 years ago,” Uygur told CNN host Chris Cuomo during an on-set interview. “I deleted it not because I thought I’d get caught or someone would find it, I deleted it because I didn’t believe it anymore. This is not me. I was trying to be a stupid, politically incorrect Republican. So I wrote these things I knew were offensive.”

Uygur, 49, is running for the House seat previously held by

Rep. Katie Hill (D-Calif.), who announced her resignation in October amid allegations of sexual misconduct.—SNIP— (Excerpt) Read more at thehill.com ...

They would be crushed at the polls.

How is it AOC was once slobbing up bar spills and is now in Congress wearing $2000 outfits, $600 shoes, bags and watches?

BACKSTORY: Muslim candidate Cenk Uygur's Justice Democrats and “Brand New Congress” are Bernie Sanders ex-staffers who decided 2018 midterms should be all about Bernie’s socialist policies, and finding 400 Bernies to dump into races. They held auditions. AOC was hired to run in NY.

NOTE
<><> “Brand New Congress” mastermind is Saikat Chakrabarti
<><> “Justice Democrats” is Cenk Uygur, a Turkish-born Muslim candidate for Congress.

Making a pile of money musta been a huge incentive. Read on.

FAST FORWARD TO TODAY.......an FEC complaint was filed alleging they created multiple private companies—LLCs—to siphon off campaign contributions from her various PACs for personal use......

=======================================

Now the stunning details about that FEC complaint:

The FEC complaint asserts that AOC's campaign early on established two PACs that raised big bucks for AOC’s campaign:
<><> the “Brand New Congress PAC,” mastermind is Saikat Chakrabarti
<><> “Justice Democrats” is Cenk Uygur, a Turkish-born Muslim, once a stupid woman-hating Republican now running for Congress in uber-liberal California.

After mucho money was raised from the progressive suckers, they transferred $885,000+ in PAC contributions to private companies with similar names:
<><> Muslim candidate Cenk Uygur's Justice Democrats LLC,” and,
<><> the “Brand New Congress LLC.”

Muslim candidate Cenk Uygur and Chakrabarti’s private companies, unlike PACs, are exempt from reporting all of their significant expenditures.

NOTE WELL: it’s a much-used criminal act to enrich oneself, to open bank accounts using similarly named entities to siphon off money, to hide it from partners, associates, investors etc.

SIPHONINGS A CINCH It’s easy to siphon off money for oneself by putting checks into the new accounts with similar names, depositing checks that were made out to the original entity. Even your bank advises that if a check-writer “mis-spelled” your name, to just endorse the check with the correct name.

AND PRESTO: a check made out to Muslim Cenk Uygur's Justice Democrats PAC, is deposited in does Muslin candidate Cenk Uygur's LLC account.

===============================

ANALYSIS -— Muslim candidate Cenk Uygur and Chakrabarti’s companies appear to have been set up for the sole purpose of obscuring how AOC’s donations were used. The arrangement skirted reporting requirements and may have violated the $5,000 limit on contributions, according to the FEC complaint filed by the National Legal and Policy Center, a government watchdog group.

Campaign finance attorneys described the arrangement as “really weird” and an indication “there’s something amiss.” They said there was no way of telling where the political donations went — meaning (A) the donations could have been pocketed, or, (B) used by the LLC’s to pay for off-the-books campaign operations.-—SNIP-—SOURCED FROM FR.

JUST WONDERING .....does Muslim candidate Cenk Uygur have a reputation among Democraps for facilitating the conversion of campaign donations?

Maybe we should ask millionaire landowner Socialist Bernie (smirk)?

I actually saw a bumper sticker yesterday that said AOC for President. In a conservative leaning town in Florida. We couldn’t decide if it was a joke or not.

Imagine Trump being re-elected and a Trump Republican following him for another 4-8 years? 12-16 years would allow Trump Republicans to completely reshape the judiciary at all levels. So, for that, Yes, rally around AOC!

BTW, AOC has a lot more in common with Bernie than socialism. Besides socialism (gag)....
AOC’s onetime COS used to be Bernie’s....wait for it.....”Director of Organizing Technology.”

AND THIS—Saikat Chakrabarti, is a proven tech expert.
(A) He co-founded a web design tool,
(B) He built up the product team at the payment processor “Stripe”.........
(C) He then came to the Sanders campaign after (cough) growing disillusioned with the tech world.

Saikat Chakrabarti was Bernie’s Director of Organizing Technology. Even old man Bernie knew enough to hire a tech expert.

So, I guess (smirk) Chakrabarti’s tech skills musta come in mighty handy when donations to Bernie were wire-transferred to the DNC and ended up in 2016 candidate Hillary’s account.

Debbie W/S headed the DNC at the time and was ousted b/c of her bias for Hillary.

Course, none of us heard about any of this, but.....
<><> Chakrabarti-the-tech-whiz did find out about the DNC theft, didnt he?
<><> Chakrabarti did speak to D/W/S about it, or to Debbie’s tech expert, Imran Awan, didnt he?
<><> Chakrabarti did tell Bernie he was fleeced, didnt he?
<><> Chakrabarti WAS working for Bernie, wasnt he?

Not knowing what a garbage disposal is kinda smacks of having a maid your whole life. I don’t believe for a second that she was a bartender, either. The libs throw around “bartender” because it sounds better than “cocktail waitress”, kinda like when they said that Beto was a guitarist in a punk band when he played with his amp turned off (and too dumb to know it) and was only kept around because he was a rich kid that threw his money around. AOC probably got the bartender pay-increase by giving the boss a little somethin’-somethin’. I’d bet money that she’s too dumb to mix a Tom Collins.

Not to mention 90% of Berkeley and San Francisco. And, depending on the weather, she could get up to 110% of the Chicago vote.

Someone needs to develop diacritical markers for the English language that would denote humor and sarcasm for general use.
