The Old Guard informed her “Every time you ride in an SUV or fly in a plane, it will be plastered all over social media”

Of course Ocasio-Cortez has bought into the global warming scam, I would expect no less. Given her track record of making statements so wildly incorrect they have tremendous entertainment value, and the fact that the global warming scam is built on falsehoods and misinformation... This is a marriage made in heaven. I can’t wait to hear the foolishness, ignorance, and just outright lies she spews on this topic in the coming two years...

Good point. Reminds me of a youtube video I saw about ten years ago of some rich guy stepping into his brand new “entry level” helicopter for the very first time. He gets about twenty or thirty feet off the ground, loses control, and crashes quite violently. I believe he and his passenger died.

I was under the impression that the Dems had a way to keep her out. Looks like they didn’t.

I’m trying to figure out if she was born mentally deficient, dropped on her head multiple times (on purpose), or just did too many brain altering drugs in her life; including huffing paint and glue.

I think the answer is D): All the Above.

I just heard the climate goons say we have 12 years left to save the Earf. Assume that and all they believe is true. That is not enough time. EVEN if the USA were to stop all emissions, we are not the majority of the supposed problem compared to the rest of the world, especially China, India etc. It is nuts and she is an idiot.

I'm looking for Vegas odds - the first RAT to tell Ocasio to shaddap.

I'd like to be there to observe.

The phrasing, timing and rhetorical value of her tweets has improved dramatically. I think she finally bought herself a social media messaging consultant.

The little girl is not nearly as aggressive as she should be. The only way to save the people of the earth from Catastrophic Climate Change is a high speed rail line to Mars. Rocket ships hold far too few people. A high speed rail line is our only hope. She should be consulting with Governor Moonbeam Brown on the details.

We need to act on climate change NOW

irrationality and mysticism leads to voluntarism, which leads to activism, which leads to pragmatism, which leads to the politics of force + violation of natural rights

She will be worshipped regardless, just like Obummer. The stupid love her. The media will protect her.

I can see Nancy Pelosi (or some other established Democrat leader) playing the Edward Longshanks role asking “who is this person who speaks to me like I need her advice?” and then throws her out the window.

HAHAHA! It starts!

Will she even make it to the beginning of her term?

Reminds me of a lousy high school football player somehow getting signed to an NFL team on some sort of fluke, and he gets put on the field.

If he lasts one game it’s a miracle.””

She is turning into the Colin Kaepernick of the House.

One of my mother’s cousins was a high-ranking aide to Ed Koch when he was in Congress. At the same time, Bella Abzug was also in Congress - and for those not familiar with her, she made Maxine Waters look both bright and courteous. Well, one day Koch put a bill into the hopper, but a rumor started that Bella had put it there - and the bill never even saw the light of day. The rest of Congress, even her fellow Dems, hated her so much that they resolved to give her NOTHING in the way of accomplishments to campaign on. Not long afterwards, she lost a bid for re-election. I suspect that the Congressional campaign committee didn’t give her the time of day, let alone any money.

I see the same kind of future for Occasional Cortex if she keeps pissing off people who’ve been there a lot longer than her.
