Thanks to the Democrats we finally get to see kakistocracy in action.

Not the greatest representative of their University....

What could possibly go wrong???

[Drew68]

A freshman congressperson is the equivalent of “zero”.

Not when they have 2.4 million followers on Twitter.

The rules have changed.

[Nifster]

Not necessarily. Pelosi has now paid off her debt and has AOC our of her hair. Maxine is just so Maxine she will stone wall the girlie from NY. Max doesn’t like to share the spotlight

[NonValueAdded]

With mad max at the head, what more harm can this do? Certainly the entertainment value is maxed (npi) out.

[wastedyears]

An idiot economics major that knows nothing about it on a financial oversight committee? What could possibly go wrong.

It might be funny to see these morons destroy each other, but unfortunately they are dragging the country along with them, and that is not funny.

[TigersEye]

LOL (I’ve got nothin’ else)

“The rules have changed. “

We’ll see. Hillary and Obama could rise above their stations. Not sure that will happen in the House.

From the article:

The assignment will give the influential Democratic freshman an powerful perch to push her party toward the left on critical financial issues.

Powerful perch? Influential Democrat[ic] freshman?

Wonder what they're smoking over at The Hill?

And who was responsible for the outstanding grammatical error in this sentence, Sylvan or Scott.

[plain talk]

While New Yorkers often land seats on the Financial Services panel, those who do are often more sympathetic Wall Street.

Ocasio-Cortez, a Democratic-Socialist, often touts her refusal to accept corporate donations and criticizes colleagues with close ties to the financial sector.

worth repeating.

[MSF BU]

Actually she has an econ minor and it is from BU.

The International Astronomical Union was so impressed with her high school microbiology research project that they named an asteroid after her: “23238 Ocasio-Cortez”. Later, however, at Boston University, she veered away from science and rational thinking, serving as an intern at the local immigration office of Sen. Ted kennedy.
It was likely here that her eyes were widened after taking her first sips of the Kool Aid.
