On Monday, U.S. oil prices fell below zero for the first time ever, shocking observers and raising doubts about the solvency of oil and gas companies coming out of the coronavirus crisis and the oil selling war between Saudi Arabia and Russia. These negative prices were distressing news for the U.S. economy, threatening livelihoods of oil and gas workers and the availability of the gasoline Americans will need after the crisis ends. Yet Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) saw them as a reason to celebrate.
"You absolutely love to see it," AOC tweeted. "This along with record low interest rates means it's the right time for a worker-led mass investment in green infrastructure to save our planet. *cough*"
In other words, AOC found the negative prices not only a reason to celebrate but another excuse to push her radical Green New Deal legislation. Except, the Green New Deal would not be "worker-led," of course. The green big government boondoggle would not just devastate America's energy sector and cost all those workers their jobs, but it would require the government to tax the life out of the rich, the middle class, and probably the poor, too.
But you know what they say, never let an opportunity — oh, sorry, I mean a crisis — go to waste, right?
Even Ocasio-Cortez seems to have had some shame, however. She deleted the tweet but not before it had been saved for eternity.
House Minority Whip Rep. Steve Scalise (R-La.) was among those calling out AOC's despicable words.
"Oil & gas workers are losing their livelihoods. Rep. Ocasio-Cortez's response was 'you absolutely love to see it.' Then she deleted it because she doesn't want people to see the truth: Dems are willing to sacrifice people's jobs & livelihoods for their radical socialist agenda," Scalise tweeted.

She needs to go for a ride on a pumpjack.
They should learn to code, eh, Sandy?
She is an evil vile witch.
If you can dig for oil down in a mine shaft, you can learn to code....
Yes. She's that stupid to think deleting a Tweet makes the history disappear. Even the Russians in the 1950's couldn't pull off that trick successfully. Now with the internet, you post, it's forever.
The words of wisdom on those post-its must be priceless.
What a dummy. Low oil prices mean the “green” energy is really not competitive in the market. Ask the local Toyota dealer how easy it is to sell a Pious right now.
Shame on NY for their rotten Democrat politicians that are a scourge to our country: AOC, Schumer, Cuomo etc etc.
Evil spills its rancid bile from its mouth. What a pathetic excuse for a human being. . . .
“Hi. My name is Sandy Cortez and I love driving around in my little green PIOUS!”
And there you have it. Sandy Ocasio is a heroine to her followers. It really does not matter how obnoxious or stupid Sandy is, she’s going to be re-elected. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the idiots in NY elect her Senator.
Save this clip for use against her in 2024...”AOC-SANDERS”
Just think if AOC didn’t audition as a Socialist Democrat congressional candidate and win a low turn out primary, she would be an out of work bartender now.
We are living through the economic devastation of her Green New Deal now. This is what America would look like if she got her way. The only thing missing is the next stage of raging inflation.
“Pious”
I love I!
Stolen by me from South Park.
Credit where it is due.
That has to be a coordinated effort. Who sends post-it notes by themselves through the mail, especially pink and blue ones?
Occasionally (not always) the camera captures the cold, ZERO compassion face of the psychopath. Barack, Michelle, Hillary, Rahm, Brennan, Strzok, Pelosi, Feinstein, Schumer, Ted Bundy, Manson, Mohammed Atta, Ayatollah Khomeini, etc., etc.
If you miss the 1) Face...go to the 2) Words and 3) Deeds
If you miss them all, your probably enslaved, raped or dead.
Lipstick on a psychopath ALERT!
