Ocasio-Cortez warns of 'list' for moderate Dems who vote with Republicans: report
FOX News ^ | 03-01-2019 | By Bradford Betz

Posted on 03/01/2019 12:57:49 PM PST by Red Badger

After more than two dozen moderate Democrats broke from their party's progressive wing and sided with Republicans on a legislative amendment Wednesday, New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reportedly sounded the alarm in a closed-door meeting Thursday and said those Democrats were "putting themselves on a list."

The legislation that prompted the infighting was a bill that would expand federal background checks for gun purchases, the Washington Post reported. But a key provision requiring U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to be notified if illegal immigrants attempt to purchase guns saw 26 moderate Democrats side with Republicans.

According to the Post, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi scolded her wayward center-leaning colleagues, telling them: "We are either a team or we’re not, and we have to make that decision.”

But Ocasio-Cortez reportedly took it a step further. She said she would help progressive activists unseat those moderates in their districts in the 2020 elections, the report said. Her spokesman Corbin Trent told the paper that she made the "list" comment during the meeting.

“She said that when activists ask her why she had to vote for a gun safety bill that also further empowers an agency that forcibly injects kids with psychotropic drugs, they’re going to want a list of names and she’s going to give it to them,” Trent said, referring to ICE.

...an agency that forcibly injects kids with psychotropic drugs...

Now they're just getting stupid.

(Which is not to say that Jackass Face was not stupid already.)

“LOL She’s is the GIFT THAT KEEPS ON GIVING!!! And giving :) If this keeps up, they will be a divided mess in 2020.”

Quite a confident assumption! Why are you certain that this will divide, rather than shift them even further to the Left?

Because pelosi and Diane over in the senate are sinister and play BRUTAL politics, regardless of what we think of them.

They KNOW this is a losing proposition, socialism.

STILL 55 percent of the country dont want any part of it.

TODAY pelosi, of ALL PEOPLE, said AOCs plan isn’t “EVIDENCE BASED”

when was the last time you hear her mention EVIDENCE?!?!?

AOC is making a list, but someone else should start another list — of moderate Democrats who are sensible enough to leave the newly radical, anti-moderate Democratic party where they are despised and join the Republicans.

When Ronald Reagan was asked why he left the Democrats and became a Republican, he said, “I didn’t leave the Democratic party, the party left me.”

Any moderate Democrat with half the intelligence of Ronald Reagan will do the same now after the virtual Socialist revolution that’s reduced their party to a Politburo ruled by “The Boss,” AOC.

But it’s doubtful there are any Democrats, even moderate ones, intelligent enough to make the Sensible List.

In this case, do nothing.

Let the dems rip each other apart.

She’s creating a “list”? AOC is?

Pelosi says AOC’s plan isn’t “evidence-based”?

WHEN did you think you’d see her use those words.

Use AOC as the poster child for everything dem in the 2020 elections.

We don’t realize that the dems, when they have the house and the senate, dont go Nearly as Insane as we think they would.

Obama had both chambers once, but there was no 90 percent tax bracket created. Gasoline wasn’t banned.

Sure they’ll do some brutal things, like obamacare, and Lord knows that was bad enough, but they could have done far worse.

In the end, for both parties, it’s abut holding power.

And why tick off the majority of Americans by passing extreme bills?

AOC is ruining them and they know it.

Let them eat each other alive.

LOL!

Well, we know she’s incredibly naive at how things work and wouldn’t think she was in a bit of danger if she did.

She’s already in danger.

She’s just too stupid to know it.
