Celebrity socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez sat down with MSNBC’s Chris Hayes tonight in NYC to talk up her Green New Deal. Highlights… First up, she totally threw a staffer under the bus for the failed rollout of the plan on day one with the “draft” talking points: -- Matt Whitlock

I guess her catchphrase is...

“The buck stops there > “

“draft” talking points:


she is not following the distributed script. What happens to actors that go off script?

Ocasio-Cortez continued. “How about we start by fully funding the pensions of coal miners in West Virginia?

Why did she say this when she is totally against fossil fuels?

You first. They could work past the age of 45, like everyone in the private sector..
They are still mad because Wv dropped union slavery.

Ocasio-Cortez booted from board of Justice Democrats PAC

Possibly has something to do with why she's "going off script"?

How about we start by putting a feed back on her at all times? This empty nitwit deserves ridicule 24/7.

How many coal miners actually have pensions? Not many I'll bet, maybe a fourth of them?

Because, as with everything else, she has no clue what fossil fuels are.

Kind of bizarre, coming from her.

My guess is that she is trying to curry favor with those who would be out of a job should the ‘GND’ come into being.

Clearly she is being coached.

There are coal miners in Kentucky, PA, and many other states. So someone anyone should have challenged nitwit on whether she thinks the entire industry should be nationalized. Does this mean we mind more coal?

Now, what workers should NOT get their pensions ‘fully funded”?
Make her list her winners and losers,

I would like to see someone anyone rationally respond to this child.
