Congresswoman-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has become a rising star in the progressive movement. People have watched what she says with a magnifying class. She's said some rather wacky things over the last few months, but this one takes the cake.
When the news broke that the Central American caravan rushed the United States border and Border Patrol agents fought back with tear gas, Ocasio-Cortez took to Twitter...to compare those caravan riders the Jews fleeing from Nazi Germany.
Asking to be considered a refugee & applying for status isn’t a crime.
It wasn’t for Jewish families fleeing Germany.
It wasn’t for targeted families fleeing Rwanda.
It wasn’t for communities fleeing war-torn Syria.
And it isn’t for those fleeing violence in Central America. https://t.co/qhv7Rr1itn— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@Ocasio2018) November 25, 2018
This is what the scene at the southern border looked like:

This is nothing comparable to what occurred in Nazi Germany. Absolutely nothing. It's a crazy assertion to think that the violence in Central America is like Adolf Hitler wanting to wipe out an entire ethnic population. The violence that's occurring in places like Honduras isn't the result of one person wanting to get rid of a group of people because of their religious beliefs. It's a result of gangs taking over the area. It's a result of people deciding that a life of crime is a way out of a life of poverty.
Ocasio-Cortez should be ashamed of herself for comparing the Jews to these illegal aliens who knowingly storm our southern border. The caravan riders put the lives of Border Patrol agents at risk. The Jews, on the other hand, came to America with dignity and respect after living through hell on earth.
Don't belittle Jewish people to try to push your political agenda, Alexandria. It's disgusting.
She is dumb and ignorant and naive, which makes her a perfect reflection and representative of her liberal/socialist constituents.
I could not have said it any better.
They sure did, or rather it was pig transporters, at least that was what they looked like to me
Her brain is like a rudderless sail, capturing any Leftist stray thought that breezes by.
Occasionally, but not be often
In this day and age, it is utterly unbelievable that you would so naively and incorrectly lump "all Jews" together into one homogeneous group. What do you mean "in business they are Jews Inc." Do you think all Jews even know one another, let alone act in concert? And the "same in politics"? Do you think all Jews hold the same political views? Then let me correct your inaccurate thinking: Orthodox Jews are almost exclusively conservative and non-religious Jews are far more liberal. Of course, being human beings, there are exceptions, but religious Jews are overwhelmingly conservative.
Isn’t it wonderful that the Voters (Legal and Illegal) decided that the Democrats should be in control of the House?
Let me know when the Insanity Plague is eviscerated.
“What do you mean “in business they are Jews Inc.” Do you think all Jews even know one another, let alone act in concert? “
Well pal, I worked for 25 years in the Silicon Valley at senior management positions, and I can tell you without the slightest equivocation that Jews Inc. RUNS every bit of it! There is a level above which you are not very likely to achieve, unless you are Jewish. I will grant you that most of them haven’t seen the inside of a synagogue in many a year, but their “bond” is that they are all Jews! I fully understand that there are decent, religious Jews who are not of that mold, but from my experience, they are in the minority. What bothers me is that Conservative Jews, as you call them, are not willing to call out the others who are, on a daily basis, doing a great disservice to them. And it’s the same in politics. I am quite surprised that there isn’t a Congressional Jewish Caucus, although there is most likely a de facto group that functions behind the scenes. I’m sorry if my words offend, but they describe how I see American Jews today. The one’s on the Right, are a distinct minority, and we both know that now don’t we?
So tell us, into just what “J-Category” do you put this guy?

Dershowitz is a rara avis: a dummocrap with a brain. Sometimes, he can actually see reason. But he probably votes D anyway. Probably just can't help himself.
“Probably just can’t help himself.”
Yes, all that legal training, and he still votes for Hillary! Michael Savage is right, Liberalism is a mental disease! How can a legal scholar not use logic to determine the proper course of action?

If nothing else, she's entertaining. Most entertaining, many on the left take this airhead seriously. In another article on the subject it was suggested she visit the Holocaust Museum. Her response, it's a great place because it teaches us to recognize the same abuses today. She didn't acknowledge she's been there though. Wonder if she has? Maybe she thinks the boxcar is like the ones Central Americans ride to our border. The gas vans too, just driving to the border to overrun it.
They have to take here seriesly. Can’t get caught being racist, can they.
Just which Latin American country is Ms. Ocasio-Cortiz(sp?) accusing of being run by Nazis?
