Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) is known for her vapidity. She’s a social media diva who sprinkles platitudes between earnest and detailed expositions of her latest makeup hacks. Her fans lap up her pablum the same way they fawn after and devour the crumbs other glitterati brush from their tables. She’s a Tesla-driving, new money elite who panders to low-income minorities, twisting their pain, frustration, and grief into adulation and political power—oh, and she plays a congresswoman on the side, representing New York’s 14th congressional district. AOC is truly a sign of our times, shallow, greedy, and desperately ignorant. But last Thursday,...

New York City public schools have been blasted for introducing a children's book that features a 'queer' main character that hails AOC and her Squad, while mocking Mitch McConnell. A book titled: What You Don't Know: A Story of Liberated Childhood has reportedly been distributed to NYC school libraries, according to the New York Post. The picture book is intended for 10 and 11-year-olds and is reportedly labeled as part of the Universal Mosaic independent reading curriculum, which the Department of Education is expected to launch next year.

An Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez protégé running for Congress supports removing the Christopher Columbus statue from Columbus Circle — which may be a big problem for the district she wants to represent.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) suggested on Saturday that Elon Musk was trying to gain attention and clout online by using her own past sentiments to make fun of her.“Tired of having to collectively stress about what explosion of hate crimes is happening [because] some billionaire with an ego problem unilaterally controls a massive communication platform and skews it because Tucker Carlson or Peter Thiel took him to dinner and made him feel special,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote on Twitter on Friday.Musk responded, “Stop hitting on me, I’m really shy.”Musk’s response is a reference to a news story from late last year where...

"Squad" leader Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. ,botched the facts while attacking Texas' hotly debated abortion law in a tweet that quickly went viral among progressives. Ocasio-Cortez made the claim in a Friday tweet where she appeared to respond to Elon Musk's suggestion that the Democratic Party has moved too far to the left. "‘The extreme left is taking over’ WHERE. In Texas, Republicans passed a law allowing rapists to sue their victims for getting an abortion," Ocasio-Cortez wrote on Twitter.

AOC is also a prodigious fundraiser and organizer. She could mobilize people Biden can’t. And while Biden or another establishment Democrat would likely have a convincing financial edge, she could raise enough money to stay competitive.

Eager to side with the winner and in the process steal some credit, AOC tweeted in support of the Amazon Labor Union’s emphatic victory with emojis of a clench-fisted arm. However, journalist Krystal Ball was keeping track of it all, and confronted AOC with proof that AOC has lied about postponing public appearances weeks before she attended the high-profile Met Gala. “Here’s the guy who organized the union drive talking about how you left them high and dry. These are your constituents, and you couldn’t be bothered to show up until they’re on the cusp of victory,” Ball tweeted to...

Fox News host Jesse Watters asked former Bush deputy chief of staff Karl Rove about the possibility that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., could make a run for the presidency in 2024. On "Jesse Watters Primetime," Watters noted that Ocasio-Cortez portrays herself as a paragon of knowledge, most recently pertaining to the public's understanding of capitalism and socialism. He asked Rove his thoughts on whether the left-wing "Squad" member has a chance. "This is way too wild … Wouldn't it be great if you were right? Because it would be such a fun campaign, and the Republicans would win overwhelmingly —...

Most of the world thinks that when Old Joe Biden indulges in his habit of leaning forward and dropping his voice to a whisper in the middle of a speech, he doesn’t appear persuasive but just weird and creepy. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-School of Leftist Indoctrination), however, has apparently been attending the Joe Biden School of Rhetorical Tricks, as she took to Instagram on Friday to whisper a “secret” to her followers: capitalism is bad, socialism is good. It doesn’t sound any truer whispered than it does spoken out loud.“Let me tell you a secret,” the renowned intellectual Congresswoman whispered....

U.S. Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said President Joe Biden's State of the Union address 'left a little to be desired' for Democrats because he did not push issues like renewable energy, student loan debt, education or immigration. The New York Democrat said Biden's speech on Tuesday, where he focused on COVID recovery and the conflict in the Ukraine, failed to capitalize on moving away from Russian oil by committing to green energy. 'I think it was a lost opportunity,' Ocasio-Cortez, 32, told MSNBC. 'There is profound bipartisan support to a long-term shift away from fossil fuels.' She added that Biden had...

Armed with a smartphone and a Twitter account, every day she makes national news by prating pure blather and blatant baloney, the latest drivel popping into her head. The media reports on her wherever she is, dutifully bannering her words front and center. In Texas, campaigning for a Democrat House candidate, she muses about turning blue a state that she does not understand, where Hispanics from Mexico, Guatemala, and other locations have been flocking to the GOP in major shifting voting patterns unlike her Puerto Rican base in the Bronx and Queens. Heckled during one campaign stop, she responds with...

@RepThomasMassie I see a lot of people saying this is illegal (RE: AOC helping illegal immigrants get stimulus checks). If it were illegal, she wouldn’t be bragging about it. This is what I opposed, when no other Republican representative would stand up in 2020. Then I tried to show that these checks were going to non-citizens and people doubted me.

Inevitable. Inevitable! It will happen. The only question is when,’ the New York progressive representative said on Saturday. ‘We are going to fight for a living wage. We’re going to make sure we unionize the hell out of this state,’ she continued, claiming that their support of Medicare for All, unions and reproductive freedoms all contribute to her backing Ocasio Cortez,...

And just like that… Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) returned to Twitter Tuesday after claiming she was done with the social media giant. The “Squad” member ended her brief Twitter hiatus — which she said she was taking due to “negativity” on the platform — only to target West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin, a fellow Democrat, over his opposition to President Biden’s “Build Back Better” bill. The tweet came after Ocasio-Cortez announced that she was on a break from Twitter — in response to an Instagram user who pointed out that the congresswoman had not posted anything on either her personal...

She has criticized the mandate-free state of Florida in the past for being too lenient about measures regarding COVID-19.
