Ocasio-Cortez: Democrats' Green New Deal requires "massive government intervention"

In an interview with NPR, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez agreed with host Steve Inskeep that the "economic mobilization" in the Democrats' Green New Deal will require "massive government intervention."

"It does. It does," she says. "I have no problem saying that."

If nothing else, you have to give her credit for being honest about the political motives behind the whole climate change agenda.

Workers of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains!

She's completely out to lunch. She literally knows nothing and she's proudly displaying it for all to see.

The Dems are playing her all wrong. Her win was a huge plus for them, but the more they let her out to talk the more it becomes clear that she's just out of her depth. All that political capital squandered, every time she goes off script. he could be such a wonderful weapon if used selectively.

Sigh..no.

As is always with Vox, and many liberal news, only half a story is told.

The video conveniently did not include the follow-up response by IFS Chairman Bradley A. Smith, who was asked by Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) to correct the record on a line of misleading questioning by Ocasio-Cortez.

IFS Chairman Brad Smith Corrects AOC on Campaign Finance Law
That won't stop that video's popularity.
She is correct, the US needs to drain the swamp for real, not put in more plutocrats.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Debunks Conservative Conspiracy Theories About Her:

"This stuff is really sad,” she wrote on Twitter, “The GOP is so intellectually bankrupt that they no longer engage to debate issues in good faith”

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) has never shied away from correcting her detractors, and in a late-night tweetstorm, the congresswoman addressed recent conspiracy theories that she has a poor credit score and history of evictions.
“The right has gotten increasingly desperate [with] spreading targeted rumors about me lately,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote on Twitter late Friday night. “Someone made up a meme that led to @snopes disproving this. (Also, I had to live alone in my family’s apt after my dad died, so the eviction lie is especially bad).”

According to fact-checking website Snopes.com, the rumor started with Facebook user Donn Johnson, a Florida security guard, who posted the following message after Ocasio-Cortez was appointed to the powerful House Financial Services Committee: “Congresswomen [sic] Cortez, from New York city, has been selected on the house finance committee, her credit score is 430 and has had two checking accounts closed, along with two sheriff evictions.”

But, according to Cortez and Snopes, there is zero evidence substantiating the rumors. And, as Snopes noted, it is essentially impossible for Johnson to have obtained this information about Ocasio-Cortez. But that didn’t stop the post from spreading across Facebook and the rest of social media. Johnson’s post was shared more than 30,000 times. It then spread to Twitter, where on February 7th, former CitiBank bond account executive and Trump supporter John LeFevre posted about it in a tweet that was retweeted more than 38,000 times.

Ocasio-Cortez fired back and criticized Republicans: “This stuff is really sad. The GOP is so intellectually bankrupt that they no longer engage to debate issues in good faith, but instead seek to lie, distort, name-call, target, & destroy people/communities [with] any means possible. It’s a virus and a race to the bottom.”
She added that she was astounded at the conflicting rumors surrounding her. She has been accused of both being wealthy and extremely poor. “It’s pretty wild that the GOP can’t decide whether they’re going to run with the conspiracy theory that I’m secretly rich, or the exaggeration & mockery of my family’s struggle after my dad died during the financial crisis,” Ocasio-Cortez concluded. “Instead, they decide to defy logic and run with both.”

I guess truth is no defense.

I just showed you that video going viral is conveniently cropped and manipulating. I provided the edited out rebuttal, and still you praise her as correct.

Even when you are being misled, you don't care. Watch what Brad Smith says again, because she isn't correct.
As a Trump supporter, you have no moral ground to make this claim.
Until you call out Trump for each and every lie he makes, then I will refuse to accept you actually care about this.

Fair?

It's the Racial Equity section that's most disturbing.

Remember this isn't racial EQUALITY being discussed. It's EQUITY. A not quantifiable measure.

And what that has to with the environment escapes me.

None of it has anything to do with the environment. It's all about destroying the current economic system and rolling back the rule of law.

Still denying the planet is warming, moviefan?
I don't believe it! We all enjoy watching Frankfooter dance and play games when he doesn't want to answer a question.

But even by his standards, this is incredible -- he's actually evading a direct answer on whether or not he supports the Green New Deal.

Seriously???

Come on, Franky. We all know how much you want to save the planet.

Give us a straight answer: Do you support the Green New Deal, or not?

--

(So we don't waste time on Franky's phony attempt to change the subject, here's a post from Nov. 22, 2015, where I clearly stated the Earth's temperature has increased by 1ºC since the late 19th century: https://terb.cc/vbulletin/showthrea...ing-Point%92&p=5404955&viewfull=1#post5404955.)

There's so much insanity in the whole thing, I don't think I could pick one element that is the most disturbing.

The GND is scary, alright. If ever implemented, it would be a complete destruction of the US economy. What's even more scary are the number of Democrats in Congress who actually endorsed it. The GND is a suicide pact a lot like Khmer Rouge plan in Cambodia.

The GND is a joke
If the objective is to "save the planet" & according to her "we only have 12 years" why waste any resources on ensuring those "that do not want to work" have economic equality?
100% complete elimination of fossil fuels in 10 years ? Using energy sources not yet discovered?
Not a snowballs chance in hell

Air Travel to become unnecessary?
Every building in america retro fitted ?
Not a snowball's chance in hell



This is using climate change as a backdoor excuse to implement a socialist nightmare.

I despise Trump & sincerely hope he is defeated
But any democrat who lines up in favour of this insanity is not going to defeat Trump
This AOC moron might have just handed him another term

Somebody with the democratic party needs to tell her to listen & learn but most importantly to keep her mouth shut

Unbelievable
you are actually trying to justify this lunacy on an economic basis?

The goals of the GND are physically impossible, so why try to apply a economic lie on top of a lie about the goals?

Well I guess that is what you do

if the objective is to "save the planet" & according to her "we only have 12 years" why waste any resources on ensuring those "that do not want to work" have economic equality?

This is using climate change as a backdoor excuse to implement a socialist nightmare.

Wake up!
She is a huge liability to the democratic party
The democratic party needs to get their shit together or we get stuck with four more years of Trump.
Do you want that?
Wake up!
