Bill McKibben and Van Jones are pushing a new scam called the Green New Deal and are using the super-flaky Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as the face of it.

The biggest news to come out the 2018 midterm elections is the meteoric rise of Representative-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and her Green New Deal. But if you scratch the surface, you’ll find that the Green New Deal is neither new nor “hers.”

Editor’s Note: Let’s not forget what the Green New Deal is all about; generating government funding for hedge fund investors to exploit in a corporatist orgy of money-making at the expense of taxpayers. Nothing more – nothing less. And you thought the folks paying Bill McKibben and pulling his strings were just looking out for the planet!
