Ocasio-Cortez Sees Global Warming As A Way To Push ‘Social And Racial Justice’ Policies

Democratic Congresswoman-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York said the “Green New Deal” plan she supports would be used to achieve liberal “economic, social and racial justice” goals along with fighting global warming.

“[W]e can use the transition to 100 percent energy as the vehicle to truly deliver and establish economic, social and racial justice in the United States of America,” Ocasio-Cortez said at a Tuesday panel discussion alongside Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and environmental activist Bill McKibben.

The soon-to-be New York representative has spent her time in Washington, D.C. promoting a “Green New Deal” to transition the U.S. to 100 percent green energy. Ocasio-Cortez even joined protesters occupying House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s office in support of the plan.

I'm transitioning to 100% green bile! So is it better to let her keep spewing inanities or shut up. I'm leaning toward spewing but some folks are looking at dealing with her for 40 or 50 years into the future. I wonder how she feels about her mentor and fellow socialist uncle burnee spending close to $300K in the last 9 days on private jets. It's something to aspire to probably.

So she’s admitting it is about government control and Marxist redistribution of wealth and race shaming?

Pretty soon they are going to want to shut her down for revealing all the lies they tell us.

We need her to spew. All the other nut jobs who refrain from saying what she believes have got to be wincing.

100 per cent energy? My vehicle uses about 98% of it’s gas for energy. If we can get it to 100% that would be great!

And is she watching France?

“...That’s what it’s been all along....”

You would think this communist half-wit had just invented the long-time agenda of the RAT party in the USA.

"While light on details, proponents said the “Green New Deal” could create millions of jobs in renewable energy and address many “social justice” issues typically on Democrats’ radar."

Of course they are light on the details. Progressives, making promises they can't deliver on for over 100 years.

The push will result in civil war.

France will seem tame.

Guaranteed.

Nothing new here.

Wasn't the "agenda" always the point?
