Her tweet""The average American now has to compete with major companies, including the largest private equity firm in the world, when they're in the market for a home. In @FSCDems , we exposed the role corporations are playing in inflation, specifically in housing prices & rent increases."

A progressive Democrat backed by US Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in a tight congressional primary race engaged in a long-running affair with her former high school teacher, bombshell emails obtained by The Post reveal. Immigration lawyer Jessica Cisneros, 28, apparently began sleeping with former teacher John Balli in 2011, when she was an 18-year-old college student and he was 40. “Happy 3! <3,” Cisneros emailed Balli in September 2014. “9.10.11-9.10.14 :D” The next year, about 11 months after Balli married another woman, Cisneros sent him a lengthy, emotional email in which she bemoaned their breakup, which apparently came at his insistence.

What an immense boon to our troubled republic that we have clear-sighted, selfless public servants of the quality of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-Make Mine A Double), who keeps us all on the straight and narrow with her eternal vigilance in the cause of truth, justice, and the socialist internationalist way. AOC, like all Leftists, sees racism everywhere, in every conceivable situation and has just found some more: she claims that the welcome that is being accorded to Ukrainian refugees is more wholehearted and comprehensive than what was accorded to earlier waves of refugees. And why? Because they’re white, of course,...

The left-wing group Democratic Socialists of America has been under fire over the weekend after calling for the dissolution of NATO's Western alliance and blaming the United States' 'imperialist expansionism' for Russia's unprovoked attack on Ukraine. DSA reaffirms our call for the US to withdraw from NATO and to end the imperialist expansionism that set the stage for this conflict. 'We call on antiwar activists in the US and across the world to oppose violent escalations, demand a lasting diplomatic solution, and stress the crucial need to accept any and all refugees resulting from this crisis.' The statement ended: 'No...

**SNIP** Unusually, resident Joe Biden had to draw those lines with fellow Democrats. Defund the police? Forget about it, Biden said Tuesday night. With crime on the increase around the nation – making for a nervous midterm electorate – the answer is to fund the police, Biden said. He also said very pointedly that he is a capitalist, albeit one who thinks big corporations should “pay their fair share" in taxes. On immigration, Biden called for reform – while also saying that those who "are not legitimately here can be sent back" to their home countries. He also made a...

Casar will be among the most progressive members of Congress ever to serve from Texas. During his tenure on the City Council, he was best known for supporting cuts to the police department and his fight against the encampment bans that had translated into homeless citizens living in tents in public parks and under Interstate 35 bridges. He had the backing of prominent progressives like U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders and U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, but also the support of prominent locals like Austin Mayor Steve Adler and former state Sen. Wendy Davis. Rodriguez, seen as his most competitive rival, warned...

In an address delivered at a student rally in Hajjah, Yemen, a Yemeni student said that the Houthis will strike New York and Tel Aviv with their drones. He also said that the Houthis’ missiles will continue to strike deep in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. The rally was broadcasted [sic] on Al-Masirah TV (Houthis-Yemen) on January 24, 2022. Student: “Placing their trust in Allah, our missile forces are continuing to strike deep inside Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Allah willing, our UAVs will reach Tel Aviv and New York in the very near future.”

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...

This November the world will witness the dawning of a conservative dynasty that will span a century. The Republican Party -- the Party of Lincoln, Reagan and Trump – in 2022 will win 100 seats for 100 years. After half a decade of unhinged corruption, intimidation tactics and media manipulation from the left, their house of cards is falling apart. And despite the DNC’s best attempts at redrawing maps to further gerrymander the districts in their favor, massive voter turnout for the GOP in 2021, a non-presidential election year demonstrates more than just a resurgence of conservative support. It shows...

AOC portrays herself as "working class" person from humble roots. 'I'm proud to be a bartender. Ain't nothing wrong with that'. She tries to convince you that she grew up poor. “Well, you know, the president is from Queens, and with all due respect — half of my district is from Queens — I don’t think he knows how to deal with a girl from the Bronx,” Ocasio-Cortez said this week on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.... “I wasn’t born to a wealthy or powerful family — mother from Puerto Rico, dad from the South Bronx. I was born...

A New York Jewish advocacy group blasted Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) Sunday, after she accused Israel of putting Arab children in cages in Judea and Samaria. Last week, Ocasio-Cortez spoke at an Austin, Texas gathering of the Democratic Socialists of America. Following comments by pro-Palestinian protesters at the event, Ocasio-Cortez accused Israel of putting Arab children in Judea and Samaria in cages, saying: “I don’t believe that a child should be in a cage on our border, and I don’t believe a child should be in a cage in the West Bank.” On Sunday, the Queens Jewish Community Council responded...

Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez ditched the commoners in coach and cozied up to elites in first class on an American Airlines flight, avoiding the left wing altogether for a spacious seat closer to the cockpit after a weekend of stumping for comrades in the Lone Star state, an eyewitness told The Post.

‘You’re a creep, bro,’ says New York congresswoman after Carlson attacked Ocasio-Cortez in Fox News segment. The Fox News host Tucker Carlson attacked Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Friday night, claiming the US congresswoman was not a woman of colour. “She’s a rich entitled white lady,” he said. In return, the New York Democrat, popularly known as AOC, said: “This is the type of stuff you say when your name starts with a P and ends with dejo.” Dictionary.com defines pendejo as “a mildly vulgar insult for ‘asshole’ or ‘idiot’ in Spanish”. “Once again,” Ocasio-Cortez added, “the existence of a wife...

I tuned into Tucker to get his take on Castrudeau’s imposition of martial law in Canada and his declaration that “all of your monies belong to me.” He did cover that eventually but his opening segment was devoted to a new book about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez written by editors of New York magazine. It’s called – and I’m not making this up - Take Up Space. I’m beginning to think that the Left really does not understand irony.As you are not likely to purchase this charming little Valentine of a book yourself I’m dedicating my post today to Tucker’s take on...

The Democrats hate America. They hate our cops, our military, and our liberty. They sell us out to Communist China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. They are a force for bad and have exposed themselves as the frauds they really are.

"Squad" Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., claimed there is a "very real risk" that America will not be a democracy in 10 years and will "return to Jim Crow." Ocasio-Cortez was asked if she believed the United States would have a democracy in 10 years, prompting her to push another wild claim in an interview that was published Monday. "I think there’s a very real risk that we will not," the New York Democrat told the New Yorker in an interview published Monday. "What we risk is having a government that perhaps postures as a democracy, and may try to pretend...
