Group aligned with Ocasio-Cortez prepares to take out Democrats
Politico ^ | 1/16/19 | LAURA BARRÓN-LÓPEZ, HEATHER CAYGLE

Posted on 01/20/2019 5:10:09 AM PST by Libloather

Justice Democrats, the liberal group that engineered Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s meteoric rise — hijacking the Democratic Party in the process — is ready to go to war.

The opening salvo? An eight-minute video released Wednesday starring Ocasio-Cortez and calling for a new crop of activists and community organizers to run against the Democratic machine.

“If you're a one-term Congress member, so what?” Ocasio-Cortez says in the video. “You can make 10 years worth of change in one term if you're not afraid.”

Justice Democrats, which orchestrated Ocasio-Cortez’s long-shot bid last year against the fourth-ranking House Democrat, Joe Crowley, hopes to replicate its success in blue districts across the country.

“Depends on how you define moderation.”

The key word here is “comparatively.” I suspect that if AOC became president we’d have retraining camps. As un-Stalin-like as she seems, I think that under the skin she would be every bit as bad as Stalin. Oh, she wouldn’t get her hands dirty. Hitler never signed an order to eliminate the Jews. He hired people he knew would do it for him.

I actually read an essay I forget by who which argued why women shouldn’t vote. At first I figured it should be inflammatory, but the more I read the more I agreed.

Yeah, well, there are a lot of us hard working, conservative, pro-life- pro-God, pro-gun, pro USA women out there who can go toe to toe with men on being conservative any day of the week.

Blanket denying women the right to vote simply based on gender is as ridiculous as it comes. It says that by default that women can't be trusted, women can't be conservative, and women have no judgment.

I'm sure you all guys object when men are portrayed as they are on TV as dithering idiots but essentially, by denying women the right to vote by making blanket judgments based strictly on biology, you are doing the very thing you condemn.

What next? Denim skirts and long hair and not allowed to work? Barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen?

Thinking like yours is the very fuel of feminism.

Don't like feminism? Then don't treat women as less than human.

Nancy supports killing unborn humans who have no chance to save themselves. That Nancy has other women willingly and happily killing their own children dehumanized half the US population.

That's pretty ignorant.

While some women are callous about it, you do not realize the destruction that abortion does to women and all too frequently, it's men who are pushing them into it because males have abdicated their responsibility, of providing and protecting.

Men have been blame shifting the world's problems onto women since the garden.

If men don't like what has happened to this country, then where are they? sitting around whining about what this world has become, or actually DOING something about it?

Yeah, she doesn’t really get who she’s messing with.

If she acts too big for her britches, they’ll find a way to cut her down to size.

These people want to take away the rights our founders fought for. I guess at some point, and I think we will all know where the tipping point will be, we will realize when the actions the founders took are justified again. I see no other way out.

“My district, I’ve polled it and polled it and they are moderate and conservative Democrats.”
*************************************************************

Henry, what’s “moderate” OR “conservative” about pulling a live baby out of the womb and stabbing it with a knife?

What’s “moderate” or “conservative” about OPEN BORDERS?

What’s “moderate” or “conservative” about a 70% tax rate?

I could go on and on but YOU, Sir, are lying when you say your “Democrats” in YOUR district are “moderate” or “conservative”. No such thing!

AOC and friends went searching for McConnell’s office the other day. They went all over the building and were filming or being filmed as they attempted to locate his office which someone pointed out to them eventually. AOC wanted to give MMcC a piece of her mind about opening up the government again. I saw the video on Facebook. The post was pointing out how stupid AOC is. Just think how she could be exploited by enemies of the US.
