Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) over the weekend defended the Biden administration’s plan to cancel a portion of student loan debt, suggesting that those who oppose it are selfish and contending that it is time for people to “reject the scarcity mindset that says doing something good for someone else comes at the cost of something for ourselves.” In a post to Instagram over the weekend, the far-left radical and longtime advocate for student loan debt cancellation defended the Biden administration’s decision to cancel $10,000 to $20,000 for borrowers, suggesting that it is wrong for taxpayers to be angry that their...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez believes Americans should be more supportive of one another — and that we can start by embracing President Joe Biden's student loan forgiveness plan. On Saturday, one of Ocasio-Cortez's Instagram followers asked her, "How does cancelling student debt help us who paid their loans?" The New York representative, 32, respectfully took issue with the question and offered a lengthy response explaining why. "I've said it before and I'll say it again: Not every program has to be for everybody," Ocasio-Cortez replied, mentioning other programs that use taxpayer dollars to benefit specific populations — like first-time homeowner benefits,...

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez missed the Aug. 13 deadline to submit her 2021 financial disclosures to the House Ethics Committee. Ocasio-Cortez, a prominent Democratic member of the House, is not worried. "[T]he Committee provides a 30-day grace period before fines are levied. The Congresswoman plans to file before the period expires," a spokesperson told the Washington Examiner. Ocasio-Cortez won the Democratic nomination in a Tuesday primary as she ran unopposed, meaning that Democratic voters did not get the chance to scrutinize her disclosures during the primary process. The documents are expected to be filed with the Clerk of the...

A veteran of campaigns for Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton is urging far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) to run for President in 2024, citing her as the Democrat Party’s best hope of beating Donald Trump. In a column published in The Hill earlier this month, political strategist Michael Starr Hopkins can barely keep up with the drool coming out of his mouth to type as he presents Ocasio-Cortez as the future of the resistance party. Hopkins suggests AOC has had a “meteoric rise,” is following a path “eerily similar” to that of Obama, and is a “smart, photogenic” force to...

Leftwing populist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is the Democrats’ best hope of defeating a potential run by former President Donald Trump in 2024, Democrat consultant Michael Starr Hopkins penned in the Hill on Tuesday. While Trump overcame the Republican establishment in 2016 to win a historic election over Hillary Clinton, the Democrat Party has not undergone the same reforms away from the establishment. Both Hillary Clinton and President Joe Biden are establishment figures who defeated socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) in 2016 and 2020 respectively, keeping the populist left out of the Oval Office. Hopkins explained that Ocasio-Cortez, “the future...

As they grow up, Palestinian children can join various youth organization where they are further brainwashed with racist and anti-Semitic ideology. increasingly important role in this systematic indoctrination is an extensive network of summer camps, established by the PA following its assumption of control of the Palestinian population of the West Bank in early 1996. Modeled on the Nazi youth organization Hitler Jugend, these camps have provided a carefully contrived mixture of ideological indoctrination and military training to thousands of Palestinian youth every year. All camps are named after "martyrs" or spectacular "acts of martyrdom" (i.e., terrorist attacks), and participants...

The left has tried every trick in their “global warming” bible to convince the majority of Americans that climate change is not only real, but it’s also urgent. Or, as Special Presidential Envoy for Climate [ROFL emoji] John Kerry and other “climate change” loons love to say, with great drama: the existential threat of mankind.Considering that “existential” refers to existence (hence, the very existence or extinction of mankind), climate change loons like world-renowned climatologist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez — who has literally said, “The world is going to end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change” — continue to...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is taking heat from her own on the left for “doing performative resistance art for the cameras” and “not doing healthcare.” That’s a reference to last week when AOC was caught pretending the be handcuffed during her pr-baby killing protest outside the Supreme Court. Apparently, pretending to be handcuffed for the cameras to burnish her outlaw legend is something AOC has all kinds of time for.

Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and the 15 other Democratic lawmakers who were arrested Tuesday outside the Supreme Court coordinated the stunt with a progressive dark money group funded by billionaire George Soros.

She said organizers of the Center for Popular Democracy Action Fund asked her and her colleagues to "submit themselves for arrest in front of the Supreme Court." The New York lawmaker insisted in the post what she and her colleagues did was "very different than a 'publicity stunt.'"...

WASHINGTON, D.C. — After a heroic protest at the Supreme Court, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez spent the better part of three hours sitting in an invisible police car with her wrists bound by invisible handcuffs, waiting to be taken to an invisible jail. "After being threatened with an invisible gun, I was thrown on the ground by invisible police!" shouted Ocasio-Cortez as she flipped her hair for the camera. "They've kept me stuffed in this invisible squad car for hours, the fascists! When I get out of the invisible slammer, I'm going to make them pay - every last invisible one...

**SNIP** Even in her hometown of New York City, a candidate she backed for mayor was defeated by the more moderate Eric Adams. The two have developed a fraught relationship, sparring over everything from the city budget and policing to his choice of words when describing some workers as 'low skill.' And the woke congresswoman has also come under fire in the past for wearing a dress to the celebrity-packed Met Gala with the words 'Tax the Rich' scrawled across the back, with some saying it was hypocritical to wear the dress while attending the ultra-exclusive event full of the...
