    “What do you think of AOC’s Green New Deal? What do you think about that?” the reporter asked RFK Jr. RFK responded that he wanted market-based solutions like TAXATION. “I, you know, I agree new deal; I think the Green Deal is, all that stuff is important, it’s good. We ought to be something, but my approach is more market-based than kind of top-down dictates, you know? I believe that we should use market mechanisms like carbon taxes and, you know, and the elimination of subsidies, and I think that those things outward transition our economy.” We’re taxed enough, and...

    Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced an independent presidential bid Monday steps away from Independence Hall in Philadelphia, a move that was swiftly condemned by several members of his famous family. Kennedy, a prominent anti-vaxxer, first announced a presidential bid in April - saying then that he planned to challenge President Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination in a nearly two-hour long speech in Boston. On Monday, alongside his actress wife Cheryl Hines, he changed his tune - saying he wanted independence from the two political parties. 'I'm here to declare myself an independent candidate,' Kennedy said in front of several...

Several members of the informal progressive caucus published statements on Saturday condemning the violence and calling for the conflict to de-escalate. Of the "Squad" members, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., has been silent on the attack on Israel.

    Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her lefty Democratic Socialist comrades aren’t just targeting the 1 percenters anymore. The New York City congresswoman and her progressive posse are pushing to slam the “top 5%” of New Yorkers with a massive total $15 billion in state income-tax hikes that would hit households making just over $250,000 a year — well below millionaires’ row, an analysis says. The eye-popping proposed tax increase comes as a new study released Tuesday by Upgraded Points found that New York suffered the largest exodus of wealthy millennials ages 26 to 45 who made more than $200,000 than any...

Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., ought to be labeled an insurrectionist after he pulled a fire alarm Saturday morning, shortly before the House was scheduled to vote on a government funding bill. Speaking with "Carl Higbie FRONTLINE," Elder says, "Of course, he won't be held accountable. They'll figure out some excuse. Yeah, he ought to be prosecuted and called an insurrectionist the way they've done [former President] Donald Trump."

I’m sure those IPhone 15s will taste great. “They go out and they need to feed their child and they don't have money.

    Progressive Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has leapt to the defense of fellow New York representative Jamaal Bowman as he faces criticism for pulling a fire alarm in the Capitol on Saturday. AOC told CNN's Jake Tapper on Sunday that Bowman's actions occurred in a 'moment of panic,' exacerbated by the pressure and chaos of attempting to avert a government shutdown - which Congress successfully did late on Saturday. 'I think there's something to be said that the government's about to shut down, there's a vote clock that's going down, the exits that are normally open in that building were suddenly closed,'...

    Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that it was a “moment of panic” while defending Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) pulling a fire alarm to possibly delay a vote on legislation designed to avoid a government shutdown. Anchor Jake Tapper said, “There was an interesting moment over the weekend when your New York colleague, Congressman Jamaal Bowman, he’s under investigation for this now after Capitol Police say he pulled a fire alarm in one of the House office buildings. Democrats were trying to delay a final vote on the bill. There he is, pulling the...

    At the opening hearing of the House impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, University law professor Jonathan Turley testified that "the influence-peddling scheme of the Bidens was of a scope so large and complex that it dwarfs anything we've ever seen in our government. It's hard to see how Joe Biden couldn't have been involved or couldn't have benefited from these corrupt dealings." Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) pointed out that "there are no canceled checks with Joe Biden's signature on them. There are no eye witnesses of him pocketing any cash. Compare this to the millions of witnesses who heard...

    The congresswomen who make up the radical leftist “Squad” are known for railing against capitalism and paying lip service to populism. But the rhetoric stands in contrast to the behind-the-scenes way in which they have indirectly gotten rich through lucrative business deals given to their husbands. A report by the Washington Free Beacon examines the ways in which the spouses/fiancés of Democratic Reps. Ayanna Pressley (Mass.), Cori Bush (Mo.), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.), and Ilhan Omar (Minn.) have accumulated millions of dollars since their wives have been in the Capitol. Pressley’s husband, Conan Harris, is a convicted felon who served ten...

    If a state can be a laboratory, then why not a county? City? District? How about AOC’s district? Recently, NYC witnessed the “march to end fossil fuels.” Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was there. Among the things she said to inspire the crowd: We must be too big and too radical to ignore…We are all here for one reason: to end fossil fuels around the planet. Jean Su of the Center for Biological Diversity, who helped organize the mobilization, said: This is an incredible moment… Tens of thousands of people are marching in the streets of New York because they want climate action,...

    Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) was promptly fact-checked on Tuesday after spewing a "complete falsehood" about greenhouse gas emissions. At a House Subcommittee on Energy and Mineral Resources hearing on the Biden administration's "mismanagement of the federal onshore oil and gas program," Ocasio-Cortez claimed that nearly one-quarter of U.S. "carbon pollution" comes from oil and gas drilling on federal lands. "As it stands, nearly a quarter of the United States' current carbon pollution comes from fossil fuel production on federal lands and waters," she claimed. But according to Kathleen Sgamma, president of the Western Energy Alliance, the New York Democrat is...

    Sen. Ed Markey (D-Mass.) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), two of Congress’ most vocal proponents for aggressive climate action, on Monday called for President Biden to establish a Civilian Climate Corps. The CCC had been a key element in early versions of the Build Back Better Act, the sweeping environmental and infrastructure bill. It was not ultimately included in the slimmed down Inflation Reduction Act, which was nonetheless the largest climate bill in U.S. history. Biden was a vocal backer of the Climate Corps early in his presidency, comparing it to the Civilian Conservation Corps introduced during the presidency of...

    I have to say that it’s been a long time since I enjoyed watching democrat politicians this much. New York democrats held a townhall meeting in the New York city today and New Yorkers got a hard lesson in reality- their representatives don’t give a flying f*** about them. They set upon the airhead AOC and that lying sack of crap Jerry Nadler to voice their anger about the illegal alien invasion of their city. Illegals are arriving daily and New Yorkers have discovered that there is a large bill to pay for the big mouth of their mayor Eric...
