The Los Angeles Theater Center was decked out Thursday like a trade show for left politics. Booths featuring community organizers, single-payer healthcare enthusiasts, and direct action groups like Occupy ICE handed out literature and chatted up attendees. Off in the corner they were selling Ocasio-Cortez T-shirts, but community groups were far more prominent. Many of these groups met with Ocasio-Cortez that morning at a breakfast organizing meeting.
When the program began, Ocasio-Cortez took a seat on stage while presenters spent an hour pitching the crowd of more than 500 on their projects. The Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment asked for support for Proposition 10, which would repeal the statewide ban on local rent control efforts. Trinity Tran of Revolution LA gave a rousing speech about the historic movement to create a public bank for city tax revenue, another issue that goes before voters in November.
Finally, Ocasio-Cortez took the mic. She explained her role as “half student, half cheerleader,” supplying a platform for community voices and learning about their concerns.

Kind of like saying socialists are unconscious all the time. I know they’re spaced out.
lol
okay, whatever.
Translation: she didn’t raise squat.
Why would anyone spend money on her campaign? She could be caught using gold Russian nesting dolls, filled with cocaine, to sodomoize Hugo Chavez, and check into a mental institution in Beijing for the remainder of the election, without spending a penny... and still win 90% of the vote. Calling it a “fundriaiser” simply allows the expenses to be charged to the campaign.
Then why was she carrying coals to Newcastle...?
After the Obama’s and Clinton’s we all know that the Media is impressed by 1-thing... fund-raising. A ‘number’ wasn’t quoted, so they conveniently ignore that subject.
The bar maid who wouldn’t share tips now doesn’t care about money? Of course the attention won’t bother the commie either.
btt
Raising consciousness? She definitely did that!! LoL.
Finally a leader who cares what *WE* think!
Go progressives!
Given that every single candidate she endorsed was defeated by large margins indicates she didn’t raise much consciousness. Or maybe she did, just not the way she wanted.
“I meant to do that.”
Show us your teeth bitch
Every time I hear her talk, I think of Moon Unit One Zappa and her Valley Girls song....
Truer words were never spoken!
In other words.... #FAIL
