New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Thursday said that “leftist” Democrats pressured House Speaker Nancy Pelosi into launching the impeachment inquiry into President Trump, and warned that the inquiry will ultimately go "nowhere." "I think we now go to a very long and unproductive road," he said during a chat on political civility at Seton Hall Law School with former N.J. Gov Chris Christie, according to The New York Daily News. But a spokeswoman for Cuomo told the Daily News that the governor on Thursday was describing the divide before Trump’s Ukraine call was revealed. “Early calls for impeachment from...

Gov. Andrew Cuomo criticized “leftist” Democrats for pushing Congress into launching an impeachment inquiry of President Trump and predicted the probe would lead to government gridlock. The governor derided the “quote unquote inquiry” as the work of angry radicals who forced the hand of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to mount what he suggested would ultimately be an exercise in futility. “There is a heightened leftist component of the Democratic Party that she was feeling pressure from,” Cuomo said. The governor ticked off a list of legislative priorities that would likely languish until after the 2020 elections now that he said...

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., NY) told supporters during a town hall in Queens on Thursday that impeachment proceedings against President Trump were “boring” and distracted from the goal of “social and economic and racial justice in the United States of America.” “He should have been impeached a long time ago. I’m over it. And so that’s how I feel about it because we’ve got work to do,” she said, before going on to argue that “impeachment of this president is the short-term action we need to preserve our democracy, but if we are really going to thrive as a country,...

When it comes to political comedy, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is the gift that keeps on giving. Each week, Liberty Nation uncovers the blunders that keep us wondering: How did she ever get elected? Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had a rather eventful and hilarious week. While many of her colleagues have rejected her Green New Deal, her new proposal on poverty has garnered support from a presidential hopeful. Secondly, it appears the lawmaker might be growing weary of the impeachment talk. And finally, the representative blew up Twitter after she was trolled at one of her town hall meetings. Support From...

Leaders of New York City’s Democratic Socialists, energized by the rise of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, are buzzing over the 32-year-old Brooklynite, saying he looks like a new star of the party. “I’m really excited to see what Jabari Brisport is going to do next,” said Bianca Cunningham, a co-chair of the city’s Democratic Socialists.

A woman who was thought to be a supporter of left-wing Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez an urged people to “eat babies” to save the planet from a supposed environmental meltdown now appears to be someone trolling AOC. As the Daily Caller reports, a fringe political group is taking credit for the disturbance and subsequent national attention the woman created: LaRouche PAC, a fringe political action committee, took credit for the stunt Thursday evening on Twitter and noted the congresswoman didn’t “rule out eating babies.” The group responded to multiple tweets on the incident, writing “it was us” repeatedly, The Washington Post...

A fringe political group that supports President Donald Trump has claimed responsibility for planting the woman who screamed 'we got to start eating babies' in response to climate change at a town hall meeting for Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The Lyndon LaRouche PAC claimed responsibility for Thursday's stunt, writing in a tweet: 'It was us. Malthusianism isn't new, Jonathan Swift knew that. Sometimes, only satire works.' Swift, the 18th century satirist, famously proposed eating babies in 'A Modest Proposal,' an essay rebutting the Malthusian theory that catastrophic famines would always limit population and economic growth. The town hall incident, which sparked...

President Donald Trump slammed socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) on Thursday after a woman had a meltdown over climate change and suggested that people “start eating babies!”. Trump responded to a tweet from his son, Donald Trump Jr., that showcased the video in which Trump Jr. wrote: “Seems like a normal AOC supporter to me.”

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) defended socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) proclamation that “billionaires should not exist,” clarifying his remarks by adding, “No person should have a billion dollars.”

“Analysts need to be African-Americans, not people that are not,” Rep. Rashida Tlaib said. “It’s true, I think non-African-Americans think African-Americans all look the same!” She said she has witnessed people confuse Reps. John Lewis, D-Ga., and Elijah Cummings, D-Md., who both are black and bald. Detroit’s chief of police, Chief James Craig, gave Tlaib a tour of the Real Time Crime Center, where the department uses facial recognition technology to find suspects. Craig, who is black, did not go for Tlaib’s suggestion. “I trust people who are trained, regardless of race, regardless of gender,” he responded.

This is the modern day left in action — Hurling f-bombs at a senior woman with a walker on her way to a speech by a Jewish gay independent YouTuber. Far left antifa thugs harassed, blocked and screamed “Nazi scum!” at a senior woman with a walker outside of Dave Rubin’s event with Maxime Bernier in Hamilton, Ontario.This only surprises people who have not been paying attention the last three years.For the rest of us, it’s nothing new.And then the liberal media will call conservatives, populists, or gay-Jewish independents the violent ones.  Via The Post-Millennial:https://twitter.com/TPostMillennial/status/1178500448552210432 

Full title: Gregg Jarrett: Trump did NOT commit an impeachable offense on call with Ukraine’s president – Here’s whyIn their delusive demands for the impeachment of President Trump, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her fellow Democrats are substituting partisan politics for the commands and intent of the U.S. Constitution. This became self-evident when Pelosi announced her impeachment folly the day before she even set eyes on the alleged evidence, which turned out to be no evidence at all. The usual gaggle of misanthropes like Democratic Reps. Adam Schiff of California and Jerrold Nadler of New York have been searching for...

It was close, but in the end, Al Gore edged out Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for the top Climate Hypocrite Award. The award is the brainchild of Senator Jim Inhofe, an Oklahoma Republican, who has led pushback against climate hysterics in the Senate.

The Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) sent out a press release last Wednesday demanding that Twitter suspend its most important account: that of President Trump. Because Trump has repeatedly enraged Leftists by going over the heads of the establishment media and talking directly to the American people through his tweets, there are no doubt a large number of tweets that have made Leftists want him gone from Twitter forever. But the one that sent CAIR over the edge committed the sin that is absolutely, finally, unanswerably unpardonable: Trump had the audacity to criticize that sacred cow of all sacred...

In the midst of all the impeachment crap -and let us not mince words, it is all crap - New York Democratic Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez announced a package of six bills as part of what she calls "A Just Society." This is her latest attempt to turn the United States into a socialist nation since the Green New Deal really has not gone anywhere, aside from the fantasies of eco-fundamentalist freaks rife with delusional climate anxiety. The key promises of this "Just Society" is your right to not to be fat and have perfect mental health, illegal immigrants receiving...

This hurts, because I like Tulsi Gabbard. She challenges Democrats for their hypocrisy, but her recent statement is beyond the pale for me. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard went on ABC's The View and made false claims that President Trump was inciting violence across the country. If Trump is inciting racism and violence, it’s the one thing he’s doing a very poor job at. I think he needs to turn to the Democrats for lessons on racism and political violence. I thought that in an alternate universe I could see myself maybe voting for Gabbard, depending upon several contingencies. Now, I am...
