AOC Responds to Claims She Was Faking Being Handcuffed

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .Shortly after 1:30pm on Wednesday, AOC finally addressed her act, by responding to Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) who was among those calling her out over Twitter. “Politics has become performative art,” Mace’s tweet read in part. “Performance, not policy, is the name of the game up here.”

AOC claimed that she was not, in fact, faking it, but that it was “a best practice while detained, handcuffed or not, to avoid escalating charges like resisting arrest.” She then went after Mace on a personal level, claiming she “lied about a fellow rape survivor for ‘points.'”

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), another squad member, who also was arrested, retweeted AOC’s response.

Inciting Violence? AOC Tells Abortion Advocates to Escalate Protests (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) on Friday joined protesters outside the Supreme Court to call the institution “illegitimate” and urge supporters “into the streets” to fight for abortion, following a landmark opinion overturning Roe v. Wade.

Pro-life and pro-abortion activists gathered outside the Court in anticipation of a ruling on Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, in which a 6-3 majority voted to overturn Roe. Ocasio-Cortez took to a megaphone to voice her disapproval after the ruling was announced, spurring protesters on to “a generational fight.”

A recent Department of Homeland Security report warned about the rising likelihood of violence in the wake of the ruling. Ocasio-Cortez is one of 27 House Democrats who recently opposed a bill that bolstered security measures for the justices, following protests outside their homes. The legislation was held up in the House because Democrats had conditioned its passage on adding similar security for Court clerks. (Read more from “Inciting Violence?

Obama Campaign Manager: ‘Dumb S***’ AOC Is Doing Could Cost Democrats the House

/0 Comments/in , /by

Jim Messina called out Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Tuesday, criticizing her for backing progressives over incumbents in Democratic primaries and arguing that “dumb s***” like that could ultimately cost the party.

Messina, who served as the 2012 campaign manager for former President Barack Obama, was responding to the news that Ocasio-Cortez was endorsing Alessandra Biaggi in her race to unseat Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee chair Sean Patrick Maloney. . .

Elections analyst Geoffrey Skelley argued that Messina might be missing part of the larger picture, noting that Maloney had opted to run in Congressional District 17 rather than defend his current seat in Congressional District 18.

‘What You Don’t Know’: Book for Fifth Graders Lauds AOC, Trashes Religion

/0 Comments/in , /by

A children’s book that reportedly knocks religion and praises Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been distributed to public school libraries, the New York Post reported Saturday.

“What You Don’t Know: A Story of Liberated Childhood,” written by and illustrated by Anastasia Higginbotham, which reportedly appears on a fifth-grade independent reading list, revolves around a black, “queer” boy named Demetrius struggling to fit in at school and church. At one point in the story, Demetrius’ spirit is depicted meeting a character that appears to be Jesus, who tells him that everyone is invited to love and be loved, including an unnamed white man on the page that appears to resemble Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

Higginbotham confirms that the character is indeed Sen. McConnell during a book reading on a YouTube video, the New York Post reported.

“That’s Mitch McConnell. And the child wants to know if even Mitch McConnell is invited to love and be loved considering all the harm he is causing,” Higginbotham says in the video.

AOC, along with fellow members of “the Squad,” including Democratic Representatives Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Pressley, Ilhan Omar reportedly appear on a TV as Demetrius watches with his parents later in the book, where its narrator espouses rewriting of rules and resetting world balance.

AOC: Expiration of Child Tax Credit to Blame for Rising Crime

/0 Comments/in , /by

Far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) correlated increasing thefts in New York City to the expiration of the child tax credit in an interview published on Monday, Fox News reported.

While speaking with the New Yorker for a “wide-ranging” interview, Ocasio-Cortez said she has been told by “hospitals, doctors and social workers” that the increase in violence is mainly being caused by young men.

“And we allow the discourse to make it sound as though it’s, like, these shady figures in the bush jumping out from a corner. These are young men. These are boys. We’re also not discussing the mental health crisis that we are experiencing as a country as a result of the pandemic,” she said.

The report continues:

She pointed out that the child tax credit, which was seen as a lifeline to many families, expired on Dec. 31 “and now people are stealing baby formula.”

Here’s What AOC Thinks About Whoopi’s Suspension Over Holocaust Flap

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said ABC’s suspension of Whoopi Goldberg over her comments about the Holocaust wasn’t necessary, arguing that Goldberg has already been forgiven by a key Jewish organization.

Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) noted that the head of the Anti-Defamation League, Jonathan Greenblatt, “accepted her apology.”

“I think whenever there’s a learning moment like this, what’s super important is the relationship between that person and the community they’re making amends with,” the New York congresswoman told TMZ.

Greenblatt appeared on “The View” on Tuesday after Goldberg came under fire for saying that the Holocaust “wasn’t about race” during the show’s Monday broadcast.

The ADL head told Goldberg and her co-hosts on Tuesday that the Holocaust was a “singular catastrophe” that was motivated by a “racialized anti-Semitism.” (Read more from “Here’s What AOC Thinks About Whoopi’s Suspension Over Holocaust Flap” HERE)

AOC Retires From Twitter Over ’Anxiety’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) announced Monday evening on Instagram she is taking a break from Twitter after feeling “anxious” upon being caught maskless and catching the coronavirus.

Responding to a comment on social media that noted she had been absent from Twitter, Ocasio-Cortez admitted she turned off social media while she recovered from the Chinese virus.

“That’s so funny that you bring that up,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “Yeah when I got covid I turned off all my devices, which means I wasn’t really on social media that much or anything like that.”

Ocasio-Cortez suggested after she recovered from the Chinese virus, she felt “anxious” about political opinions on Jack Dorsey’s platform.

“And I found that when I went to open Twitter up again, it just like wasn’t really making me…,” she said before the Instagram story frame ended. (Read more from “AOC Retires From Twitter Over ’Anxiety’” HERE)

Huh? AOC Claims Republicans Criticize Her Because of ‘Deranged Sexual Frustrations’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claimed Friday Republicans criticize her because of their “deranged sexual frustrations” and suggested Republicans seek “therapy.”

The “squad” member was spotted dining outdoors in Miami Beach with her boyfriend as her home state sees record-breaking cases of the coronavirus.

Columnist and former President Donald Trump adviser Steve Cortes poked fun at Ocasio-Cortez, claiming “if leftists like AOC actually thought mandates and masking worked, they wouldn’t be frolicking in free FL” and that her boyfriend’s feet were “gross” and “pale.”

Ocasio-Cortez responded that if “Republicans are mad they can’t date me they can just say that instead of projecting their sexual frustrations onto my boyfriend’s feet. Ya creepy weirdos.” . . .

Some took to Twitter to point out, however, that the criticism of Ocasio-Cortez’s appearance in the sunshine state had more to do with hypocrisy.

AOC Promotes Bail Reform One Day After Waukesha Christmas Parade Massacre

/0 Comments/in , /by

Open socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) promoted bail reform efforts just one day after the Waukesha, Wisconsin, Christmas parade, where the suspect – Darrell E. Brooks Jr., who has an extensive criminal record – was released on $1000 bond days prior to when he allegedly plowed an SUV into crowds of people.

In a tweet on Monday morning, AOC shared a letter that she penned with Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) and Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) asking New York City’s five District Attorneys for information on “excessive bail in the NYC court system – particularly for low-income defendants.” She tweeted:

The letter focused primarily on New York City’s Rikers Island, alleging that “thousands of individuals” have been forced to languish in terrible conditions. The letter said:

We have grave concerns that excessive bail amounts are leading to unnecessary pretrial detention and contributing to a humanitarian crisis in New York City’s jail system, particularly on Riker’s Island. 14 people of died this year in the custody of New York City Department of Corrections.

GOP Rep. Trolls AOC’s Met Gala Outfit, Dems With ‘Let’s Go, Brandon’ Dress

/0 Comments/in , /by

Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert trolled AOC’s “Tax the Rich” Met Gala dress and Democrats’ terrible Tuesday election results in one shot — posting her own fashion statement, a red dress emblazoned with the “Let’s Go, Brandon” slogan that’s become a rallying cry against President Biden’s policies.

On Thursday, Boebert (R-Colo.) shared a photo on Twitter of her wearing the red dress while posing next to former President Donald Trump — with her back to the camera to better show the white-lettered statement running down the back.

“It’s not a phrase, it’s a movement,” she wrote in the tweet.

“Let’s go, Brandon” has massively gained popularity among Republicans in recent weeks as a snub to Biden.

The phrase was first picked up after an NBC Sports reporter said NASCAR fans chanting “F— Joe Biden” last month were actually shouting in support of driver Brandon Brown. The phrase has since been printed on shirts, hats and even gun parts.
