Ocasio-Cortez claims climate change is driving migrant crisis

ep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., claimed climate change is a “major factor” of the global migrant crisis after earlier suggesting that the United States would have “blood on our hands” if legislation is not passed to tackle climate change.

“The far-right loves to drum up fear & resistance to immigrants,” the freshman congresswoman tweeted on Tuesday. “But have you ever noticed they never talk about what‘s causing people to flee their homes in the first place?

“Perhaps that’s bc they’d be forced to confront 1 major factor fueling global migration: Climate change.”

Of course, what a brilliant deduction.

There is climate change in Mexico, but there is no climate change in the US. That is why they are all coming here.

All we hear about is how climate change is driving all the worlds problems but nobody can document any significant change in climate

Seriously, there has been no change of climate in Mexico or Central America

So obviously, it’s too hot for these migrants where they currently live... Send them directly to Alaska. If they can hack it there for 6 months they get to stay... One word of whining about how cold it is, and they’re out of there and sent directly back home.

Nope. The problem is witchcraft! Witchcraft I say! What? You want proof? Hillary, AOC, and Maxine! I rest my case.

"....Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., claimed climate change is a “major factor” of the global migrant crisis

Good ol' Sandy Cow Farts was nice enough to finally admit there is a crisis anyway.

"Open mouth, insert foot" is her byline.

wait...is Mexico so climate-changed that people are just forced to walk through (bus through) it? When did that happen? Why didn’t it make major headlines? The cities in Guat, Hon and Salvi seem to still be standing - with lights on at night, too. Fancy that. And traffic. And people going about their business. Certainly nothing going on to the scale of say, Venezuela. Nothing much of anything going on in any of those places really. Boring even except for the holidays and parades.

The real draw is greed - free money for nothing just like the song, and barring that, the promised and dreamed about $15/hr. What they forgot to dream about was the cost of living that goes with that elusive $15/hr. Kind of like the time AOC forgot about the tips that were supposed to be shared...

The uninformed youth supporters, for which she has many, think she is a genius.

She's the bleeding edge of Leftist intellect. All democrats are at or below her.

That we let them out without bicycle helmets and boxing gloves is a constant question...

OK, I'd give them plastic bags and steak knives, and let them play in traffic, but that's just me...

Ocasio-Cortez needs to change her puppeteer. As her ventriloquist makes her mouth move he has never had the ability to make sense. As it is, she is really a dummy.

When do we start demanding x-rays of her skull to prove to the nation it’s not full of compacted crayons instead of brains?

I really feel bad for the houseplant that lost to her, it had to have been tortured in some way, nobody watered it or something.

That must have taken some high level ciphering to come up with that one.

Democrats love equality so much they are desperate to bring in enough illegals to turn America into just another leftist or Islamist run crap hole like Iran or Venezuela.

After all - why should Trump voting whites in flyover country live better than garbage pickers in Gaza, Somalia or Guatemala?
