Good to see AOC cracking a few heads in Congress good on her!!

She's a crackhead alright. To hell with working. Just proof of who's pushing the welfare state.

Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal offers 'economic security' for those 'unwilling to work'

Not to mention her claim that the USA is native land and that latinos are descendents of these people so they have a right to be there.
That's the new reason for open borders.

I wonder is she from the same tribe as Elizabeth Warren?

I listen to everyone and while some of her ideas are completely idiotic some of the things she says makes sense.

That's comment about providing economic security for those unwilling to work is going to be very problematic. I'd give her the benefit of the doubt and say she misspoke, but the Democrats need to get out in front of his very quickly

Interesting to see if the media shine a spotlight on those comments today

Edit: Seemingly she did not miss speak. Those words are in the policy document

Then she's got a little explaining to do.

Unless I'm of very limited imagination, I'm having a hard time seeing how one could justify a safety net for those "unwilling" to work.

I'll be shocked if that was supposed to be in there. Even the most utopian-minded, pie-in-they-sky socialist would have a hard justifying providing for someone who was idle and non-contributory by choice.

When I hear AOC talk I think that someone has inadvertently turned the TV over to "Keeping up with the Kardashians" and that they're talking about politics while getting their moustaches waxed.

I can't get enough of conservative reactions to AOC, most of which look like this:



Put "AOC meme" into a Google image search and you see a big litany of memes with fake quotes and stuff she never said. She's a boon for the fake news industry.

Poor Eamonnca1
This has been a very bad weeks for democrats. No wonder the betas have been in hiding.

If anything AOC blows minds with how downright dumb she actually is and how people are agreeing with her.

Cucks, Foxy. You're supposed to call us "beta cucks." If you're going to project your incel frustrations onto others, do try to use the correct alt-right language. It's not like getting laid is an option for you.

I like the idea if the green deal, but as it's currently presented it's a pile of nonsense

High speed trains is one example. Here in Boston they've been trying to extend the commuter rail on the one of the lines (existing track) for over a decade and still it's been held up by objections. The estimated cost has gone from $935M to $3.2B

"Governor Northam has lost all moral authority and should resign immediately, Justin Fairfax is the leader Virginia needs now."

Joe Biden - Feb 2nd

He is indeed. PMSL. Boy the Democrats have been quiet this week - they know they've taken a hiding.
From Virginia to Trump's mega-SOTU to Occasio-Idiots cow flatulence ban. Democrats want to turn everyone into soyboys.

I take it soyboy is a bad thing? What is the opposite of being a soyboy?

A man.
It's pretty bad. Soyboys are pathetic excuses for humans.

If this bunch of nutjobs get in you'll be eating quorn and tofu for every meal. No more meat.

At some point a myth that soy consumption lowers testosterone levels in men took off. There is no actual evidence that this is true https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19524224

But our gullible friends on the right won't let a lack of evidence stop them so now soyboy is one many insults that they throw around.

Never ceases to amaze me about all the lies and quasi libellous stuff each side peddles in the US political arena.

Despite my prev dislike of trump, he's better than more or less all British politicians and he's seemingly doing a fantastic job on the US economy including employment.
