Ocasio-Cortez slams Kellyanne Conway for questioning her faith
NY Post ^ | April 28, 2019 | Mark Moore

Posted on 04/28/2019 3:26:07 PM PDT by COUNTrecount

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez blasted Kellyanne Conway for trying to “stoke suspicions” about her Christianity after the White House counselor questioned the rookie lawmaker’s “silence” to the massacre of hundreds of Christians in Sri Lanka.

“On Easter I was away from tech visiting my grandmother in Puerto Rico, which continues to suffer from the White House’s incompetent disaster response,” Ocasio-Cortez responded to Conway on Twitter. “Are you trying to imply that I am less Christian? What was the point of you bringing this up on national TV?”

​​”​You are using this as an excuse to stoke suspicion around my Christianity + faith life, @KellyannePolls​,” the New York Democrat continued in another tweet. “The Sri Lanka massacre was horrifying. No one should be targeted for their religion. If you’re so moved, let’s do more to welcome immigrants fleeing religious persecution.​”

​Conway was defending President Trump’s remarks that there were “very fine people on both sides” about the “Unite the Right” rally in August 2017 on CNN’s “State of the Union” ​when she took a shot at Ocasio-Cortez.

“I see officials who get a lot of airtime and ink, like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, congresswoman, who tweets many times about the mosque but never once about Sri Lanka​,”​ Conway told host Jake Tapper.

She is a Catholic who says no one should have children. Very anti-life.

Communists, Ocasio-Cortez and … Jesus?

Marina Medvin
Dec 27, 2018

“Lenin lived, Lenin lives, Lenin will live!”

That was the first line in my Soviet textbooks when I was a little girl growing up in the USSR. Does that line sound familiar? Maybe too familiar. Think back to the Bible. Depending on the translation, the line reads something like this: Christ died, Christ is risen, Christ shall come again. The similarity is intentional.

Communists came to power over Christians in Soviet Russia. They knew that they needed to replace the Christian beliefs with something familiar to the people, to ease the transition. So they replaced Jesus with Lenin.

It is thus not a surprise that communists in the United States similarly discourage Christianity, and similarly use the Bible and Jesus as political ploys to attempt to persuade Christians to align with communist beliefs.

Over Christmas, America’s darling socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted, “For all the anti-immigrant pundits uncomfortable with and denying that Christ’s family were refugees, too” and cited a magazine article for the premise that Jesus, Mary and Joseph were a family of … migrants. Yes, you read that right.

Assuming that the poor woman is uneducated about the history of Jesus and Israel, many concerned Christians chimed in, responding to Ocasio-Cortez’s tweet with points of education about Jesus’s Jewish family, the Roman rule in the Jewish homeland, the family having to travel to be counted for purposes of taxation as required by the Romans.

The Christians made it clear to Ocasio-Cortez that Jesus’s family members were not immigrants, and that they did not like Ocasio-Cortez manipulating the Christian religion to push a political agenda. One kind Christian even offered to host Ocasio-Cortez for a meal, in a seemingly benevolent attempt to try and convince the communist that her knowledge has some holes in it. ...”

All Kellyanne needs to say is “Yes you psycho bitch! To your face! Your not a Christian and are a publicity whore! Don’t like it? Stop tweeting and prove you are a Christian by serving your fellow man....and that doesn’t mean drinks!”

She says she was away from Socialist Networking Media sites while visiting momma.

Yet there she was tweeting several times the day after the Easter massacre.

Are you trying to imply that I am less Christian?

Yes! I'm impressed that a satanic moron such as yourself noticed.

I’m confused. Is it ok to be a Christian or not?

“On Easter I was away from tech visiting my grandmother in Puerto Rico,...”

anyone who has spent any time near a millenial has heard the “sick grandmother” excuse for not doing something or not showing up as previously scheduled. The question now is how many more times will AOC use her grandmother to get her out of a jam?

“On Easter I was away from tech visiting my grandmother in Puerto Rico...

Conway burned her on that one:

‘Good that you now condemn Sri Lanka massacre. Some found it odd a prolific tweeter was silent. Following day you tweeted about your movie:
https://twitter.com/AOC/status/1120364513700794369 …’
