MAKING A LIST: Cortez RIPS Moderate Dems That Vote With GOP, Says She’s Making ‘A List’
Hannity.com ^ | 03/01/18 | Hannity Staff

Posted on 03/01/2019 1:43:32 PM PST by Enlightened1

Recently sworn in Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is reportedly compiling “a list” of moderate Democrats that break party lines and vote with their Republican colleagues; lashing out at centrist legislators during a closed-door meeting on Capitol Hill.

“After more than two dozen moderate Democrats broke from their party’s progressive wing and sided with Republicans on a legislative amendment Wednesday, New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez reportedly sounded the alarm in a closed-door meeting Thursday and said those Democrats were ‘putting themselves on a list,’” writes Fox News.

Cortez was referring to recent legislation that expanded universal background checks for nearly all gun purchases in the United States.

According to inside sources, Cortez threatened to help progressive activists primary those Democrats in the upcoming 2020 elections.

“She said that when activists ask her why she had to vote for a gun safety bill that also further empowers an agency that forcibly injects kids with psychotropic drugs, they’re going to want a list of names and she’s going to give it to them,” confirmed her spokesperson.

Why is this chic in the news all the time?

Because she is a spectacle in herself. She says outrageous stuff. The media thinks she is good for ratings. She is bombastic and absurd. THAT is why the media loves her. She is giving them story after story with her ludicrous statements, speeches and ideas.

AOC is merely the face-card for the big boys, which is why she is beloved by the FakeNewsMSM:

27 Feb: Bloomberg New Energy Finance: Michael Liebreich: Green New Deal – Trumpism With Climate Characteristics?
President Donald Trump’s decision to pull out of the Paris Agreement and his boorish attempts to dismantle U.S. climate programs failed to disrupt the post-Copenhagen consensus...

Those too young to vote have caught the vibe. The Climate Strike movement, sparked by the preternaturally determined 16-year-old Greta Thunberg, has now spread to 14 countries. Anyone who thinks it will fizzle out any time soon has forgotten what it is to be young.

Also tapping into the zeitgeist – bravely and with much gusto – is up-and-coming political star Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (known by her initials as AOC) who this month, along with veteran climate hawk Senator Ed Markey, put forward GND [Green New Deal] Resolution, H. Res 109, their sweeping vision for the decarbonization of the U.S. economy and reconstruction of society...

In particular, the Green New Deal achieves extraordinarily high polling among young voters. The Pew Research Center has even found some signs of Republican millennials peeling away from their elders on the environment, with 60% saying the government is not doing enough on the climate, versus 30% of their older party colleagues...

So basically she is addressing an empty room since there is no such thing as a moderate Democrat.

Yeah, I am kind of on the opposite side of those who think the Dems will put her in her place. Biden, Pelosi, Feinstein, Hoyer......they are all 75-85 years old. I think it is one of those deals where we look back and say, “They were telling us just what they were gonna do”. And yes, they have the junior high mentality in play these days.

My wife teaches and says these young parents are lots different than in the past.

No matter what they might claim, when commies start talking about lists they aren’t talking about elections.

If the GOP had a hit list on the Republicans who predictably support the democrats, the party would not be as distrusted as it now is by many Republican members. We have a known group of senators who are not reliable supporters for GOP interests. Susan Collins, Lamar Alexander, Lisa Murkowski, Ben Sasse, probably new senator Mitt Romney, and others who are wobbly. Nothing to fear for any of them under the leadership of McConnell. The House is no better unless their new Speaker McCarthy is not compromised as Ryan apparently was.

Gosh, our AOC is growing up so fast! Seems just like yesterday (December) that she was threatening Donald Trump, Jr. Remember this remark after he made fun of a cartoon about her?

“Please, keep it coming Jr - it’s definitely a ‘very, very large brain’ idea to troll a member of a body that will have subpoena power in a month.”

She made a lame attempt late today to diffuse her comment, but we know two important things about her: 1)She’s keeping a list of those who cross her, and 2)She’ll use the power of subpoena to punish those on that list.

She’s like, you know, like so very Stalin.
