AOC calls Nancy Pelosi ‘outright disrespectful’ for singling out women of color
NY Post ^ | July 11, 2019 | 1:19am | By Joe Tacopino

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez continued her war of words with Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday night, calling the Speaker of the House “outright disrespectful” for criticizing women of color.

The Bronx Democrat was reacting to Pelosi’s repeated attempts at reigning in some of the more left-wing members of her caucus and chastising the freshman reps for tweeting too much.

“When these comments first started, I kind of thought that she was keeping the progressive flank at more of an arm’s distance in order to protect more moderate members, which I understood,” Ocasio-Cortez told the Washington Post.

“But the persistent singling out — it got to a point where it was just outright disrespectful — the explicit singling out of newly elected women of color.”

Slavery was legal in Puerto Rico until 1873. West African Slaves worked for the Spanish extensively in mines and sugar cane plantations along with other less significant occupations. Given her somewhat obvious light complexion, I would not be surprised to find a couple of slave owners in AOC’s ancestry.

...”What I think she will do is begin removing committee memberships from the renegades. Essentially, she’ll make them non-Democrats. Pelosi has a hundred different ways, as Speaker, to make these little yapping dogs suffer and she’ll do it.”...

Would any of that even work considering the leftist revolutionary media who think just like those 4 women, glorifying them at every turn. CNN and MSNBC are the worst. The generations who have moved into prominence in communications and big tech cannot see that their destruction of their own country is going to destroy them as it destroys everyone and everything else which has made their lives great. The Chinese or some other nation will be happy to pick up the pieces.

“outright disrespectful” for criticizing women of color.

If that was a GOP member AOC would flat out call that person a racist.

You are 100% right....the media is in control of the Democratic Party, not Nancy Pelosi nor the freshman.

The media makes or breaks who they want.

If you see media coverage of the freshman wane, then you know the media wants them to tone down....even if the media has to do it for them.

If you see the media continue to promote the freshman, then you know the media wants Pelosi to shut up and sail into the night.

The media is the Democratic Party today.

This is true. Pelosi needs to end racist hate. Pelosi should be ASHAMED and move to take her racism head on. Pelosi’s first step should be to apologize.

AOC said Pelosi is singling out women of color because they want to run their own offices on Twitter where they are acting as Drama Queens (look up urban definition)

"San Fran Nan is not too be messed with."

She can (and does) still raise boatloads of cash for her Party - AOC will quickly find that money talks and BS walks.

At the end of the day I want AOC to win over Pelosi. AOC will only cause confusion and the downward spiral for democrats.Pelosi must get out and be disgraced. AOC message is so radical so out of touch with reality she’s perfect. If Kellyanne Conway doesn’t run against those four members of Congress she doesn’t know her job. Every campaign should have their faces and their thoughts on it in every congressional district in this country. With or without Pelosi.

There, FTFY. Not everything in the world is about the race card.

BTW, Occasional, "respect" has to be "earned".

This Cortez kid is now claiming she’s black?? Seems to be carrying on the Obama tradition of criticism or disagreeing=racism.

Does AOC not realize that she and her posse are singling out women of a different color?

I tend to agree. Nancy is not on top of her game because of her age and condtion. AOC and the others as the saying goes, ‘Aren’t playing bean bag’. You have seen all winter and spring how easily the Dems moved to the next level on abortion, immigration. Nancy is radical enough herself and this train won’t be slowed down. We just better pray the electorate is wise enough to slow this down. Even that may not be enough, that is how radical these people are.
