Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) has emerged as a figurehead for the Democratic Party — a symbol of the new socialist identity politics consensus. Her Green New Deal brings together the intersectionality narrative, big government take-overs, climate alarmism, and a clear definition of good-versus-evil in politics. If anyone opposes the Green New Deal panacea, they're not just wrong, they're wicked.
She is something of a kingmaker in the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination race, and at the end of last week, she rejected Vice President Joe Biden because he undermined her polarizing narrative.
A Reuters report last Friday revealed Joe Biden's plans for climate policy. Two sources close to Biden's campaign said the former vice president will seek "middle ground" in order to get climate legislation passed.
"What we learned from the Obama administration is unless we find middle ground on these issues, we risk not having any policies," Heather Zichal, a member of Biden's climate change team and a former advisor to President Barack Obama, told Reuters. Biden, who currently leads the Democratic primary by a large margin, aims to craft a climate change policy to appeal to both environmentalists and the blue-collar workers who elected Trump.
This is not only reasonable but good electoral strategy for Democrats who are serious about the issue. Unfortunately for them, the climate alarmists are not to be trusted and Americans should be able to see that climate change bills are aimed at propping up a climate industrial complex.
Yet Ocasio-Cortez can brook no sign of dissent from her good-versus-evil, Manichaean narrative. She retweeted Canadian author Naomi Klein, who rejected the very idea of middle ground on this issue.
"No Joe, there is no "middle ground" on climate breakdown - there is bold, transformative action or there is sinking ground, burning ground and churning ground,"

Her constituents of course. And get this — it will be easier to dislodge a governor or mayor in NY than a congressman/woman in a district.
Didn’t we hear a few days ago that she was “just joking” about climate change?
I thought she was just kidding.
Because barmaids accumulate a lot of wisdom - beyond their years, in fact.
Until she shows everyone her tits, I’m not going to take this lady seriously.
They will accept nothing less than total control.
You know, one day it just may come out that Trump is paying AOC, and I wouldn’t even be the least bit shocked if it turned out to be true.
They looked better in college than they do today.
She probably has plans to repeal the law of gravity.
Kingmaker where Trump is the King
Nucking Futz
A psychology student at a local university was sent on a field assignment to evaluate three patients in a local mental hospital.
The first patient was locked in his room throwing tennis balls everywhere. The student asked why, and the patient answered “When I get out of here I am going to be a tennis pro.”
The second patient was locked in his room throwing baseballs everywhere. When asked why he said “When I get out of here I am going to be a professional baseball player.”
The student thought he was starting to get the hang of things, until he looked in on the third patient. There locked in the middle of the room was Anthony Weiner naked, laying face down in a bag of almonds. The student asked, “I understand about the others, but what are you going to be when you get out of here?”
“They’re never going to let me out of here,” Wiener said “I’m f÷_<&<g nuts!”
“Until she shows everyone her tits, I’m not going to take this lady seriously.”
Not worth it, read she’s got nopples
This video gets worse every time I see it.
He puts his hand on her chest and she actually elbows him to get away!
Yes, absolutely all of the present twenty-two (22) Democrat Party morons and idiots that have declared themselves as 2020 POTUS candidates. It is really sad that the best the Democrat Party has to put forward are all losers from the starting gate....but...it is great entertainment across the board from these twisted sister & pajama boys!!!
Excellent. The more unhinged they get, the better. It doesn’t matter the topic matter. It could be mismatched socks for all I care, except that would be easy to fix.

Yep, from bartender to kingmaker. Could only happen in the Democrat Party.
