Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., hit back at critics Tuesday who mocked her celebration of Amazon’s decision to cancel its deal with New York City to build its headquarters in Queens.
Ocasio-Cortez faced stinging rebukes from Republicans and Democrats alike over her insistence that the $3 billion in tax breaks offered to the company would be better spent hiring teachers and fixing the city’s crumbling subway system.
The latest came from Erik Engquist, a managing editor at Crain’s New York Business.
Enquist’s pile-on proved something of a last straw for Ocasio-Cortez, who unleashed a flurry of tweets directed at those who claim she’s too green to wield so much influence.

I’m not sure she isn’t right, although for the wrong reasons.

I’ve had it up to here with crony capitalism. Big Business is not our ally.
And the waitress is practicing politics......
It is no wonder that this uninformed/miseducated fool was bartending several years after getting her worthless “economics” degree. I don’t think she has enough of a clue about economics to run a successful lemonaide stand. Oaf.

Hey, dudes. I took a great big bite out of the Big Apple and now I get dissed?
Nice to see her being savaged by the comments at Yahoo.
That picture needs a cartoon balloon with a “Will-burrr!” in it.

Love it.
We always wondered if there was secretly a MRS.Ed somewhere.
Found her.
The only 'pile' Occasionally Compos will ever find are the piles of crap that everything she touches turns into. Calling her a moron for believing there was 'like, you know' 3 billion actual dollars in an account somewhere to spend would be an insult to morons everywhere!

It’s OK sweetheart, we don’t have to call it “dumb”.
We could call it inexperienced.
Or stupid.
“Alexandria Ocasio-Confused”
I thought it was “Alexandria Often-Confused”?
DeBlazio should announce that it was actually $50 Billion in the Amazon agreement and then they can solve the impending pension bankruptcy and still have money left over to fix the subway system!
"I'm Good Enough, I'm Smart Enough and Doggone It, People Like Me"
Is she braying?
“... As the Leftists slowly get stoned.”
I’m not going to give the Yahoos a hit. How is Bucky defending her udiocy this time? With more idiocy, as usual?
OC: Let me explain: If I have a one piece of gum, and you have two pieces of gum... wait, what kind of gum? Juicy Fruit! That’s my favorite!! Anyway, what was a I saying?

I was thinking more of the animated intro from Hee Haw.
There will, under her plan, be NOTHING, Zip Nada! No food could be grown. No fuel to drive the tractors,or deliver the product. No cows, no meat of any sort. No horses to pull the family plows or reapers. In short order all the dogs, cats and even the goldfish and pet bunnies would disappear. Don’t believe me? Look at Venezuela. Zoo animals were being eaten. Its all a mad mad lust for Marxist power. It always has been. It always will be.
