Are people still taking AOC seriously?

Would we destroy an entire economy on the say-so of this childlike celebrity?

Ocasio-Cortez Claims Trump Admin’s “Deliberate Policy” Is to Cage Kids at Border and Inject Them With Drugs  “Her attempt to distract from her continued use of misleading, overblown statements ended up in her making yet another misleading, overblown statement.”

"Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., claimed during an Instagram live video Wednesday that the U.S. has a “deliberate policy” to “cage children at the border and inject them with drugs.”

" Ocasio-Cortez’s audacious remarks came during a diatribe about being the “youngest woman to ever be elected to the United States Congress” who has “plenty of time to learn.”

Watch her floor level video at the above link and see what you think of her as a Congress, um, guy, er, lady as well, just as an adult. Was she elected by millennial's? Do college-educated young voters take her seriously?

Democrats Want Reparations? They Should Look First in the Mirror

Part One in a special Stream series on Reparations.

The Stream

"A racist democrat political poster, circa 1869." Emphasis mine, TD

Video: True History of the Democrat Party

"Why are Democratic candidates suddenly talking about reparations? Pretty simple. Donald Trump’s making inroads among black voters. They see their most reliable voting bloc starting to defect. To the Republicans. To Trump. Democrats may like denial, but they can read the headlines:

• Historic lows in black unemployment.
• Candace Owens and Blexit.
• The Walk Away movement.
• The president delivering on prison reform.
• Even Kanye West meeting with Trump. 

"With economic opportunities improving for black Americans today, Democrats must turn to the past. Think of that friend of Kamala Harris and the Obama’s, Jussie Smollett. He used a noose in his staged hate crime. A noose! No wonder Chicago’s police chief Eddie Johnson rotates between tears and rage. And Chris Rock has lost all respect for Smollett. They are not alone. Ultimately we will discover that Smollett’s motive wasn’t crass financial gain. It was Democrat political panic.

"Harris, Cory Booker, Elizabeth Warren have been loudly sounding the reparations cry. 

"You can add Beto O’Rourke to the list. He’s reversed himself on reparations, now saying he would support a billcreating a commission to study reparations. The commission, according to bill sponsor Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee would, “make recommendations concerning any form of apology and compensation to begin the long delayed process of atonement for slavery.”

“ 'Foundational to reparations is the word repair, foundational to repair is the truth,” Beto told Al Sharpton’s National Action Network.

“ 'Truth”? “Long delayed process”? Really?

"On Your Knees, Democrats

"What makes the Democratic Party’s reparations push so stunningly ironic — if not chutzpah of historic proportions?  If there is one organization that should be on its knees attempting to atone for the sin and legacy of slavery, it’s the Democratic Party. Southern Democrats fought the Civil War to defend the institution. Democrats created the KKK and made it the party’s military wing." . . .

Tucker’s Show CRUSHES CNN’s Complete Prime Time Cabal – CNN Reacts

Instead of looking for ways to win back more market share, or win back the public’s trust, CNN looked for ways to sabotage their competitors, using the help of totalitarian partisan hacks at Mediaite with a history of bullying advertisers connected to anybody that isn’t Left of Lenin.

Don Lemon says "I'm not biased". Over and over.

Clash Daily  "Tucker isn’t just ‘beating’ the competition, he’s beating them like a rented mule.
"And we love it.
"It couldn’t happen to a more pathetic pack of petulant punks.
"In normal business practices, you would evaluate your product and your market and see if changes need to be made. But CNN isn’t subject to ‘normal’ business practices are they?"Naw. They serve a higher call, they’re Agents of Change, don’t you know! Part of the #Resistance!
"Helter Stelter came up with excuses for why Fox was winning the ratings battle in such a terribly lopsided fashion:

I am now open to the idea that Brian Stelter is trolling ALL of us. He literally said there hasn't been much news this week and that's why ratings are down. https://t.co/TvrqQHBQRy

"He thinks that last week was a “Slow news week.” Sorry to break it to ya, but the only thing ‘slow’ during last week’s news cycle where the paid employees of CNN and MSNBC.

"No, it’s not that Anderson Cooper is about as inspiring as plain white rice, or that Lemon can hardly finish a sentence without saying the word ‘racist’.

"It’s not that you’ve had stories proven wrong again and again and again. Or that you guys had probably-headed-for-prison Michael Avenatti as a regular guest and the Mueller Probe came up empty. No, it’s a ‘slow news week’." . . .

It’s SAD TO SEE 2020 Dems KISSING Sharpton’s… A--

Socio-Political-Journal

"If he beckons, they all come — the Democratic presidential field, that is, to bow down and pay homage to Al Sharpton.

"No fewer than 12 members of the 2020 pack will show up this week for the four-day National Action Network convention, where The Rev is holding court.

"That Sharpton — with his decades-long dubious record of racial incitement, demagoguery, corporate shakedowns, tax liens and other fiscal shenanigans — can summon Democrats like lemmings with the snap of his fingers is a deeply depressing sign of how low that party has sunk.

"An added irony: Even as Joe Biden, Kirsten Gillibrand et al. are embarked on “apology tours,” to beg forgiveness for various centrist “blots” on their records, they’re all flocking to pose with someone who has never apologized for a single misdeed.

"Sure, the national media tell us that Sharpton is now “mainstream.” Thank President Barack Obama (who wanted to shunt the Rev. Jesse Jackson to the side) and MSNBC for giving him a national platform.

"But nothing else about Sharpton has changed over the decades (save his weight). As The Post has long reported, corporations have shelled out millions over the years to buy his influence — or, more often, his silence.

"One especially memorable moment: The daughter of Eric Garner, whose death during a confrontation with police sparked Sharpton-led protests, was caught on video acknowledging The Rev is all “about this” — while rubbing her fingers to indicate money.

"Last December, as The Post reported, Sharpton “sold” the rights to his life story to his own charity for $531,000, a deal one tax expert says “makes me want to roll my eyes” because it has “so much potential for funny business.”

"Ever since the Tawana Brawley hoax, Sharpton has been all about just one thing: the glorification and enrichment of Al Sharpton. And that’s what all those candidates are promoting when they show up to kiss his . . . ring.

"The Democrats are Al Sharpton’s party now, and they only have themselves to blame.

Alyssa Milano seeking the cameras again

Recall her publicity shots at the expense of Judge Kavanaugh and, of course, his wife and two daughters?

Admired Hollywood heroine

Deplored by Hollywood

It may be time for CNN to change formats

Silvio Canto, Jr.  "Who remembers Headline News?  It used to be very popular years ago.  As I recall, it was a 30-minute news segment 24 hours a day.

"My suggestion is that CNN should revive that format and drop the opinion shows.  Why?  Because no one is watching its current lineup.

"This is a remarkable story about viewership at CNN:

Tucker Carlson's Fox News show earned more viewers last week than all of CNN's primetime line up combined, reports the Daily Wire's Ryan Saavedra.

This has to be a bitter pill for CNN.  For years now the far-left network has done everything in its power to bring Carlson down. 

By any measure, CNN has conducted what can only be described as a straight up, deliberate demonization campaign.

Cartoon added by TD

CNN has also participated in the effort to have Carlson blacklisted by advertisers due to his right-of-center political beliefs.  Since the fake news outlet cannot beat Carlson in the ratings, it is hoping to drive him off the air through McCarthyism.

"I guess it's Tucker: 1 and CNN: a big zero!

"Let me disclose that I don't get to watch Tucker that often because of other commitments.  I do catch some of his interviews on the website, and he's always struck me as a pretty serious guy.

"These numbers are more about CNN than Tucker.  Sadly, CNN has gone off the rail trying to compete with MSNBC for the leadership of the Trump Derangement Syndrome Club.

"Change format or die.  It's about that simple for CNN."

Ratings for CNN and MSNBC continuing to crash, as viewers migrate to Fox News prime time

Lara Logan calls out CNN anchors Don Lemon and Chris Cuomo: 'Are these opinion shows or news programs?'  "Former CBS News journalist Lara Logan has taken aim at two CNN primetime hosts. Logan, a former “60 Minutes” reporter, criticized Don Lemon and Chris Cuomo for not clearly stating whether they are journalists or “opinion hosts.” “My concern as a journalist is trying to figure out what the facts are and trying to figure out what people are actually representing and what they’re trying to do in the election,” Logan said during “Hannity” on Wednesday night. “As journalists, it seems to me, our job is to do that." . . .

Democrats Court Al Sharpton; Ignore Past of Racism, Antisemitism, Incitement

Breitbart

"Democratic presidential candidates are descending on New York City to court Al Sharpton at his National Action Network (NAN) convention this week, ignoring Sharpton’s long history of racism, antisemitism, and incitement. 

"All of the major declared candidates for the 2020 Democratic nomination — and some potential candidates — are attending Sharpton’s conference, a remarkable fact at a time when many are also voicing concerns about extremism.

. . .  "The candidates are using the event to pander to black voters, as O’Rourke did in endorsingreparations.

"But Sharpton is so radical that then-Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) did not want his endorsement when he ran in 2008. But when black activists began criticizing President Obama from the left, Obama urned to Sharpton for help.

"Rehabilitated by Obama and the left-wing media, Sharpton reinvented himself as a political kingmaker in the Democratic Party.

"But the candidates vying for Sharpton’s support must overlook a controversial record, as Breitbart News has noted:" . . .

Robert Francis O’Rourke jumps on the ‘slavery reparations’ bandwagon  "Add the fake Hispanic running for president to the list of Democrat lemmings rushing toward the cliff of so-called reparations for slavery. Robert Francis O’Rourke, whose charisma has been sufficient to convince the Associated Press (the most pervasive purveyor of news to Americans) that Spanish is his “native language”, must by now believe that he can sell anything to anyone. He uses the con man approach when he promises to establish a commission to ”study” the reparations (Sheila Jackson Lee’s idea), allowing a pander to blacks who want free money, while allowing plausible deniability and a complete fudge on the critical details (for instance, do Vietnamese boat people immigrants have to pay money to recent immigrants from Jamaica?)" . . . Think about that last phrase a bit and you'll catch on. TD
