Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., on Sunday blamed Democrats – both in the House of Representatives and at the White House – for allowing the eviction moratorium to expire, as millions of American families are at risk of being kicked out of their homes.

"The House and House leadership had the opportunity to vote to extend the moratorium, and there was frankly a handful of conservative Democrats in the House who threatened to get on planes rather than hold this vote," she said on CNN "State of the Union." "We have to really just call a spade a spade. We cannot, in good faith, blame the Republican Party when House Democrats have the majority." ....

The eviction moratorium was a vexing problem for mortgage holders and landlords, who saw NO income from those properties, and were left holding the bag, as no compensation was was ever offered to offset their diminished cash flow.

At least Section 8 provides some compensation, even though the property often ends up being a wrecked shell after several Section 8 tenants.

Democrats control the WH, House and Senate. They can’t blame the Republicans for anything.

"We have to really just call a spade a spade."

If she were a Republican, she might have gotten in trouble for that statement.

She has actually stumbled into the truth, because Vanguard, Blackrock and State St. are buying up residential real estate to rent out at jacked up rates. (BitChute "who runs the world blackrock vanguard".) They have the Dems' family jewels in a chastity-belt cage with a little guillotine poised to remind them who really runs the show. AOC is the stupid little twit who accidentally says "The Emperor Has No Clothes" (and nothing left where it counts).

A conservative Democrat just wants to steal from white people and Asians.

A moderate Democrat wants to line them up and shoot them.

The “moratorium” is illegal, wrong and unconstitutional. It constitutes indentured servitude: forcing owners to provide an apartment, heat, hot water, parking, insurance and maintenance without compensation. Any law or EO that orders it is invalid. Enforcement is illegal. Those who made these laws broke the law.

Just try to imagine the firestorm that would unleash if said by a Republican.

Also, “good” and “faith”. How can her mouth form those words?

Conservatives raised $100 grand for Granny on GFM but the family refused the money.
