A report on exactly who is behind AOC - and it needs to be disseminated far and wide. "Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not really the congresswoman of New York's 14th District - she is, essentially, an actress. She is merely playing the part of a New York congresswoman ..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1h5iv6sECGU&feature=youtu.be

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a know-it-all ditz. The founder of Greenpeace has called her a "pompous little twit."https://twitter.com/EcoSenseNow/status/1102018074016796673While she is amusing, she is also a media darling That makes her dangerous as she is accorded far more press coverage than is warranted. Still, her utterances are both a source of hilarity and a warning. AOC has spent her Congressional tenure bashing America and endorsing socialism. While do so, she exposes her own galactic hypocrisy and demonstrates how socialism and socialist leaders really roll. Her "Green New Deal" would do away with all fossil fuels and jet aircraft, but that doesn't stop her...

FULL TITLE: INSANE VIDEO! Democratic Socialism In AOC’s Own Words: We Don’t Want To Take Over EVERY Form Of Production – We Just Want To Tell Every Workplace How To Operate ==================================================================== Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez retweeted herself again, and this one is for the record books. Watch as she explains Democratic Socialism. I’ve taken the liberty of transcribing it below for closer examination. "“We should be scared right now because corporations have taken over our government.” @AOC explains why she is in favor of democratic socialism at #SXSW #tictocnews" " Ya know just as there’s all this fear mongering that...

President Trump used his State of the Union speech to position America squarely against the rising tide of socialism. The Washington Post has chosen to take the other side. Perspective: Five myths about socialism MYTH NO. 1 Socialism is a single coherent ideology. …socialism has multiple meanings and interpretations, which have to be disentangled before a discussion about its merits can begin. One distinction centers on whether socialism is a system that must supplant capitalism or one that can harness the market’s immense productive capacity for progressive ends. Karl Marx, who predicted that historical forces would inevitably lead to capitalism’s...

Bill Nye, the famous TV scientist behind Bill Nye the Science Guy, gave his support to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her efforts to fight climate change while addressing income inequality. Ocasio-Cortez has co-sponsored a Green New Deal resolution with Massachusetts Senator Ed Markey that calls for a 10 year program to reach net zero greenhouse-gas emissions, wean the U.S. off of fossil fuels and nuclear energy, shift to 100 percent renewable energy and do so while promoting green jobs and helping communities on the frontlines of climate change. "AOC gets it," Nye tweeted from the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival in...

If Democrats thought that turning on Leftist Starbucks founder and former CEO Howard Schultz was going to dissuade him from taking part in the 2020 electoral process or, to their horror, even running as an Independent for president, they were wrong. Not only has Schultz not slinked off into the dark battered and silenced, but he is also continuing to take the Democratic Party’s extreme Left to task, especially its newest rising star, Democratic Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.). While Schultz certainly veers way Left when it comes to so-called ‘human-caused climate change,’ amnesty for illegal aliens, banning ‘assault weapons,’...

Venezuelans are defenseless Unlike the US Constitution, which has a Second Amendment guaranteeing the right to bear arms and form a militia if the government exceeds its powers, in 2008, Hugo Chavez made sure that there would never be an uprising and stripped Venezuelans citizens of their weapons, even in their homes, through legislation approved in 2007.

As New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez continues to galvanize the left (and frustrate the right), what’s driving her unique appeal has become an increasingly compelling question. Is it her identity or her substantive politics? Or both? Ocasio-Cortez's embrace of democratic socialism has been emphasized by the right, which seeks to paint her as out of touch with mainstream American values. But arguably, it's her progressive ideals that provide the basis for a human-centered politics that connect with a majority of Americans. The Intercept's Senior Politics Editor Briahna Gray will talk to Ocasio-Cortez about identity, the race/class divide, and how these...

Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez continued to heap praise on fellow freshman Congresswoman Ilhan Omar early Sunday night — calling her “one of the most effective voices right now.” “Rep. Omar, a survivor of war, is one of the most effective voices right now at cutting through the authoritarian foreign policy tendencies of this administration,” tweeted Ocasio-Cortez. She linked back to a post that the Minnesota lawmaker put up earlier in the evening, criticizing President Trump’s handling of the crisis in Venezuela. “Trump and Elliott Abrams cannot be trusted to tell the truth about what’s happening in Venezuela,” Omar tweeted, along with...

Bill Nye, the climate activist and renowned television host of “Bill Nye The Science Guy,” came out in support of the Green New Deal, a plan to combat climate change by investing in eco-friendly jobs. “AOC gets it. She sees that fear is dividing us. We can address income inequality. We can address climate change, if we get together and get to work. #SXSW @AOC,” Nye tweeted with a photo of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), one of the plans most vocal advocates.Nye has long discussed the dangers of failing to address climate change and has advocated for bold proposals to...

I find it impossible to disagree with Ryan Saavedra’s Twitter observation: "The Democratic Party, which has called everything under the sun a “Nazi” for the last 3 years, all of a sudden can’t muster up the spine to condemn blatant anti-Semitism within their own party.” It’s been in the works for years under the cloak of intersectionality -- in truth little more than an effort to ingather voting blocs of illegal immigrants, Palestinian supporters, socialists, blacks locked in the ghettoes of their minds, sexual outliers – LGBT (and "whatever other gender” now included), and malcontent women delighted that even post-birth...

Democrat Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants Americans to pay more taxes, even though she hasn’t paid her own back taxes from 2012. A book company AOC founded in 2012 to publish children’s books in the Bronx still owes New York State over $1,870 in corporate taxes, according to public records uncovered by the New York Post. The state dissolved her company, Brook Avenue Press, in October 2016, presumably due to its failure to pay corporate taxes or file a tax return. In typical socialist fashion, Ocasio-Cortez’s little "book-publishing company" got cheap office space as part of a city-subsidized program. However,...

(VIDEO AT SOURCE) Saturday at the South by Southwest Conference & Festivals in Austin, TX, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said former President Ronald Reagan used “racist,” caricatures to pit “white working-class Americans against brown and black working-class Americans.” Ocasio-Cortez said, “One perfect example, I think a perfect example of how special interests and the powerful have pitted white working-class Americans against brown and black working-class Americans in order to just screw over all working-class Americans, is Reaganism in the ’80s when he started talking about welfare queens.” She added, “So you think about this image; welfare queens and what he...

https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=276330586596368 Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez suggests the state of America is ‘10% better than garbage’ and implies former President Reagan and Roosevelt were racist.

(FULL TITLE: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez uses her SXSW talk to label FDR's New Deal 'racist' compared to her 'Green New Deal' and protests minorities being treated like 'garbage' - as she draws a bigger audience than any Democrat 2020 hopeful) She came. She saw. She conquered. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dominated the South by Southwest conference with her mere presence, bringing in a larger crowd than any of the 2020 presidential contenders, all of whom were asked about her or her Green New Deal in their own sessions at the popular event. The 2,000 plus ballroom - one of the biggest in...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants to pass sweeping tax hikes on the wealthy, but the freshman lawmaker might want to take care of her own unpaid tax bill first. Brook Avenue Press, a company she founded in 2012 to publish children’s books in The Bronx, owes the state $1,870.36 in corporate taxes, public records show. The state slapped the company with a warrant on July 6, 2017, two months after Ocasio-Cortez announced her candidacy to run against Democratic incumbent Joe Crowley for the district that encompasses parts of Queens and The Bronx. The state requires businesses to pay a corporation tax...

An investigation is needed to determine if socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the media magnet on the far-left fringe of the Democratic Party, has broken federal campaign finance laws. If convicted of criminal conduct, she could get up to five years in prison for each violation. We don’t know at this point if the New York congresswoman has engaged in improper conduct. But she and her chief of staff and former campaign manager Saikat Chakrabarti are accused of serious charges in a complaint filed with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) by the National Legal and Policy Center. The accusations against Ocasio-Cortez...

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says she doesn’t recycle her plastic bags because her city’s recycling program is too “tough” for her to understand On February 24, 2019, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez posted a live video on her Instagram account where she was talking about different political issues while peeling and cutting sweet potatoes.A guy named Gob Abierto posted several different excerpts from that video in a string of tweets at this link, which has since been deleted. I watched a bunch of those excerpts before the tweet string was deleted. The internet archive has a copy of the same tweet string at this link, but...

As the Democrats Go Socialist, They Go Anti-Semitic Jew-hate and socialism have always gone hand in hand. March 8, 2019 Daniel Greenfield 103 comments at FrontPage Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism. "Every government having regard to good morals ought to repress the Jews," opined Pierre Leroux, the leftist credited with coining the term 'Socialism'. "When we speak of Jews, we mean the Jewish spirit, the spirit of profit, of lucre, of gain, the spirit of commerce." "What is the worldly religion...

AOC is, for all intents and purposes, a hired actress hired by a group called by the Justice Democrats. An Indian guy from Texas, Saikat Chakrabarti, Zack Exley, plus Cenk Uygur of Young Turks fame have all been involved in getting her elected and giving her the script that she's been reciting. People behind the Bernie Sanders campaign also worked to get her elected. The video is 23.04 minutes long, but it's worth it.
