After Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) joined Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) on a CNN town hall to discuss the government shutdown—and repeatedly attacked House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) while issuing demands for President Donald Trump to meet—Johnson fired back, “With every ounce of Christian character that I can muster &#8230; bless her heart.”
Ocasio-Cortez accused Johnson of “choosing to punish the American people,” declaring that she would not “enable it by acquiescing and enabling the behavior of bullies.” She added, “So it ends today,” and warned, “If I were Mike Johnson, you should be in that office negotiating with Hakeem Jeffries every damn day until we reopen this government.” Ocasio-Cortez also demanded, “I will not accept a measly one-year extension of the ACA,” and argued that “health care is a human right &#8230; the minimum wage should be a living wage in this country &#8230; [and] public colleges and universities should be tuition-free.”
“Does AOC, does she have both oars in the water here, thinking that the president is going to bow down to these demands?” Fox News’ Laura Ingraham asked Johnson.
“With every ounce of Christian character that I can muster, Laura, let me just say, bless her heart,” Johnson replied. “This would be comical if it were not so dangerous. You’re looking at the two leaders of the modern Democratic Party. We say all the time, ‘This is not your father‘s party.’ It’s not. These guys are full Marxists. You hear how vapid their ideology is; what empty suits they are.”

“But they are the leaders of the party,” he continued. “They are dragging the rest of the old guard, the old party leaders, around by the nose, and they are subservient to their wishes. Chuck Schumer has picked a fight over this very simple clean CR to just keep the government funded for 21 additional days, till November 21, seven more weeks, so we can get this appropriations process done. And the reason he did it is because he’s afraid of that voice you just heard on that stage. He’s afraid AOC  is going to challenge him.”
“There’s a rise of Marxism in the party; it’s happening in New York, in their state, and he’s terrified. That’s why everybody around the country is feeling such pain right now, because of this nonsense,” he concluded.

An American anti-Israel activist called for “death to America” and “death to Israel” earlier this month while speaking at a rally in Iran.
&#8220;Thank you for welcoming us to your beautiful country,” Calla Walsh <a href="https://www.memri.org/tv/us-activist-calla-walsh-tehran-death-to-america-israel" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> at a “martyr’s ceremony” in Tehran. “We do not deserve such kindness, and such strength,” Walsh began.
“We all have a duty, when we go back to the countries we come from, to share the truth we saw here, and to struggle against Zionism and imperialism. Glory to all the martyrs. Glory to the Axis of Resistance. May we see victory within our lifetime.”
She concluded by chanting in Farsi: “Death to America! Death to Israel!&#8221;
The ceremony, which took place on July 20, was intended to “honor the memory of martyrs from the realms of culture, art, and media who were killed tragically during the 12-day resistance against the Zionist regime.”
It was part of a multi-day “Condemning Terrorism Against Media” <a href="https://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2025/07/17/751367/Global-exposure-of-Zionist-crimes--Intl--journalists-witness-Israel-s-terrorist-wounds-Tehran" target="_blank" rel="noopener">event</a> organized by the World Service of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting, the state’s official broadcasting network. Walsh was one of 15 international “journalists” invited to attend.
Walsh called the trip “the greatest <a href="https://freebeacon.com/democrats/its-the-greatest-honor-of-my-life-israel-hating-american-woman-gushes-over-visit-to-iran-calls-us-genocidal-after-npr-named-her-a-good-citizen/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">honor</a> of my life” and praised Iran for their “indigenously produced drones and missiles.”
After the event, Walsh <a href="https://x.com/CallaWalsh/status/1948169475834159227" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> on X that she was heading back to “the Great Satan,” the United States, where “zionists are campaigning for my passport to be canceled and me to be charged with treason and sedition upon my return, for traveling on a press visa on a perfectly legal trip to Iran.”
She later posted that she was detained and questioned for a few hours by a “Gestapo agent” but that it was “nothing that I didn’t expect.”
The 21-year-old Boston native and <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/11/25/news/disney-channel-actress-arrested-for-vandalizing-nh-israeli-company/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">former Disney Channel actress</a> has 58,000 followers on X, including Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN). Her father, Chris Walsh, is an English professor at Boston University and her mother, Mary Sullivan Walsh, works at Harvard Extension School.
Walsh has been <a href="https://www.wsj.com/opinion/the-making-of-an-american-radical-students-protesters-politics-ae04326d?gaa_at=eafs&amp;gaa_n=ASWzDAjk2Cqj0tJAyA3au1Y--rBGB2je7oKnTrrWb-gDOEJCeTXzD201OjXc_hY2O0Q%3D&amp;gaa_ts=688a4c2f&amp;gaa_sig=08yJsjCcP7hwVlE-kOIdCC8giENruQt_W5WGJk8ywOHSLxf9KwIejDk7ghVWMKBBy5AFfyK4OBKpqwE4NKnPjg%3D%3D" target="_blank" rel="noopener">active</a> in politics since her teenage years. In 2019, she organized a climate protest at Boston City Hall. In 2020, she worked on Senator Ed Markey’s (D-MA) campaign, helping him appeal to younger voters by establishing an “online cult of personality.” In 2021, she wrote a <a href="https://www.teenvogue.com/story/democratic-socialists-of-america-gen-z">piece</a> for Teen Vogue encouraging her fellow Gen Zers to join the Democratic Socialists of America because “there is no future for us under capitalism.”
She later left the DSA over its “support for zionist <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2024/06/21/jamaal-bowman-israel-trip-reelection-00163788" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jamaal Bowman</a>”, a former congressman from New York.
“I phased out of that shit in high school. How embarrassing and shameful it is to be in a zionist organization with AOC and other genocidaires,” she <a href="https://x.com/CallaWalsh/status/1947277076857335958" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posted</a> on July 21.
Now, she identifies as a communist and works as an organizer with Palestine Action USA, which describes itself as a “network dismantling zionism &amp; US imperialism” through “direct action.” The UK branch was recently designated by its government as a <a href="https://www.the-independent.com/news/uk/home-news/palestine-action-protest-banned-proscribed-court-b2798925.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">terrorist organization</a>.
Walsh spent 60 days in jail for vandalizing the Elbit Systems facility in New York, and is currently facing charges for a similar attack in Massachusetts. Elbit Systems is an Israeli international defense company and a particular target of Palestine Action.
“If you still say the answer is to email Congress / do police-permitted parades / repeat the same lib tactics for years to no avail, you are woefully misunderstanding the nature of our enemy &amp; lying to the people about what resistance means in order to exempt yourselves from it,” Walsh <a href="https://x.com/CallaWalsh/status/1794977865705931101" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> on the subject in May.
Walsh was <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/19/us/teens-massachusetts-elections.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">featured</a> in a 2021 New York Times piece that hailed her as “an influential new force in Democratic politics.” NPR <a href="https://www.npr.org/2021/06/13/1006085956/how-to-be-a-citizen-being-involved-in-civic-life-at-a-young-age" target="_blank" rel="noopener">promoted</a> her as a “good citizen” and a model for youth.
Legacy media outlets have yet to respond to Walsh’s more recent antics.

Earlier this week, far-Left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) threatened Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem and border czar Tom Homan over their commitment to enforce laws related to illegal immigration, specifically a recent incident concerning New Jersey Democrats at an ICE detention center.
As reported by <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hes-not-very-smart-homan-responds-to-newark-mayor-arrested-for-storming-ice-facility?author=Amanda+Prestigiacomo&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=5&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=‘He’s+Not+Very+Smart’%3A+Homan+Responds+To+Newark+Mayor+Arrested+For+‘Storming’+ICE+Facility" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Wire</a>, a number of Democrats rushed the Delaney Hall ICE detention facility after gates were opened to allow a bus of apparent illegal immigrants into the facility. <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/05/12/us-news/feds-weigh-assault-charges-for-pols-who-protested-nj-ice-center/?utm_source=chatgpt.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According</a> to DHS, the feds are considering charges against the Democrats involved.
“If anyone’s breaking the law in this situation, it’s not members of Congress, it’s the Department of Homeland Security,” AOC claimed in a <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DJfpuCXsK6p/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">video</a> posted to Instagram on Sunday. “It’s people like Tom Homan and Secretary Kristi Noem.”
“You lay a finger on someone, on Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman &#8230; or any of the representatives that were there &#8212; you lay a finger on them, we are going to have a problem,” AOC threatened. “Because the people who are breaking the law are the people not abiding by it.”
Responding to AOC&#8217;s remarks, Homan told the congresswoman that she should do her job.
&#8220;I wish she&#8217;d do her job,&#8221; he <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-border-czar-fires-back-aoc-over-doj-probe-remarks-why-doesnt-she-pass-some-legislation" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> Fox News earlier this week. &#8220;She&#8217;s a legislator, right? Why doesn’t she pass some legislation … and actually improve this country like President Donald Trump is already doing?&#8221;
&#8220;She should try doing her job,&#8221; Homan added.
On CNN airwaves, the border czar had another message for the Democrat: she should be thanking DHS for keeping her constituents safe.
“First of all, you can‘t intimidate me. Come on, give me a break,&#8221; he said. &#8220;You know, and as far as New York, her district, this administration has done more to protect her district than she has. The number of criminal aliens we took off the streets of New York made her community much safer.”
“She ought to be thanking the members of this administration, the men and women of ICE, who protect this country and make her community safer,” Homan added.

&#8220;I take pleasure I can live in her mind rent-free every day,&#8221; Homan said on Fox News on Tuesday night, responding to the lawmaker.
&#8220;We all know exactly what she&#8217;s doing,&#8221; the border czar continued. &#8220;She&#8217;s educating the worst of the worst on how to evade law enforcement, but the tables have now turned: she&#8217;s educating people how to get prosecuted.&#8221;
&#8220;It&#8217;s a crime to take steps to not comply with ICE (Department of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement) removal orders, or not comply with ICE actions to take you into custody,&#8221; Homan said. &#8220;You can&#8217;t hinder your own removal that was ordered by the federal judge.&#8221;
&#8220;I would like AOC to read Title 8, USC 1253, because it&#8217;s starting tomorrow,&#8221; he added.

During an interview with NPR in March, AOC said, “I was informing all of my constituents of their constitutional protections and, in particular, their constitutional protections against illegal search and seizure in the United States.&#8221;
Ocasio-Cortez then seemed to concede that she was advising illegals on how to continue violating America’s laws when asked by NPR. “I was giving advice to all of my constituents, yeah,” AOC responded.

NewsNation host Chris Cuomo blasted Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) during a Thursday broadcast, warning Democrats not to get behind her as she tours the country with Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) — and appears ready to potentially mount a presidential campaign in 2028.
Cuomo, in addition to criticizing Ocasio-Cortez&#8217; thin Congressional resume, referred to the Bronx native as an &#8220;80/20 loser&#8221; whose only real accomplishments can be measured in social media &#8220;likes.&#8221;

&#8220;AOC has done nothing meaningful in Congress. She&#8217;s done it all on social media,&#8221; Cuomo began. &#8220;And she&#8217;s one of your leading names and who&#8217;s going to be president?&#8221;
&#8220;Do you not get this concept of 80/20? She&#8217;s an 80/20 loser all day long,&#8221; Cuomo continued, suggesting that on most major issues that Americans cared about, Ocasio-Cortez would side with 20% while 80% sided against her. &#8220;Why? She is clearly catering to a minority. She&#8217;s her own version of MAGA. She&#8217;s looking for an outraged enclave.&#8221;
&#8220;She&#8217;s not about the majority, she&#8217;s not about consensus. She&#8217;s not about solutions,&#8221; he concluded. &#8220;She wants government to give you everything. She&#8217;s a socialist in a capitalist society. What are you thinking!?&#8221;
A number of people have suggested that Ocasio-Cortez is likely to mount a primary challenge against Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) — and Schumer&#8217;s <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/cnn-data-guru-its-time-for-chuck-schumer-to-panic-sirens-should-be-going-off" target="_blank" rel="noopener">recent poll numbers</a>, according to CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten, have many wondering whether he could withstand such a battle.
&#8220;They simply don’t like the job he’s doing as Senate leader. I mean, look at this — should Schumer stay as Senate leader? Again, according to New York Democrats, just 50% say yes. Look at this number — 48% say no,” Enten said. “This screams — sirens should be going off. Primary challenge. Primary challenge. Primary challenge. When you’re a Democrat in New York and these are your ratings — this is a big wake-up call if you’re Chuck Schumer.&#8221;
But others have suggested that the New York Congresswoman might be plotting a much bigger move:

Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) delivered a quick fact-check to Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) during a Tuesday hearing, using her own previous actions to discredit her current position on the impeachment of judges.
Crockett, along with several other Democrats, used her time during the committee hearing to complain that democracy itself would be left in shambles if Republicans were to succeed in impeaching any of the judges who have unilaterally blocked President Donald Trump’s administration from taking certain actions.

“The problem that we have right now is that if we continue down this road, we will not have a rule of law because we have people that are currently serving and they’re saying things like, ‘Ignore the judge’s order.’”
Making no mention of the fact that President Joe Biden had done exactly that when he pushed ahead with student loan forgiveness despite a Supreme Court decision stating that he did not have the authority to do so, Crockett continued.
“What it means to have law and order in this country is that you follow the order and you go through the appeals process even if you dislike what the judge did,” Crockett said before yielding back her time.
She relied, as have other Democrats and media talking heads alike, on the narrative claiming that Republicans wanted to impeach the federal judges over rulings they “did not like” — despite the fact that the reasoning given by those calling for impeachment is rooted instead in those judges’ alleged abuses of power.
Issa stepped in briefly then, observing that when Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) had introduced articles of impeachment against conservative Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas, Crockett herself had co-sponsored the move.
“It does seem interesting that when the shoe is on the other foot, everyone is self-righteous!” Issa said before moving on to the next agenda item.

As we all know, in last November’s presidential election, Donald Trump defeated what’s-her-name and left Democrats trailing Republicans in popularity by a margin of approximately everybody to nothing. Now, Democrats are trying to find a new way forward that does not involve finding a new way forward. Democrat National Committee Chairman Mao Tse Muhammed Jihad Vladimir Muhammed Allahu Akbar Stalin Jihad Mohammed recently addressed the subject in a speech entitled “How Can They Hate Us When We’re So Hep?” The Speech was delivered to the annual meeting of the Future Illegal Alien Terrorists Who Hate America of America, or the FIATWHA – and then another A. Mr. Jihad, who goes by the name of Miss Jihad and uses the pronouns He and Be, as in the sentence “He be giving me the heebee geebees,” told the gathering, “It’s time to face up to the truth. We Democrats instigated fatal riots and then pretended they weren’t happening, we opened our borders to criminals and terrorists and pretended that wasn’t happening, we sexually mutilated children in the name of a perverted fantasy, we censored anyone who disagreed with us and tried to put our political opponents in jail, and we acted with such weakness and incompetence overseas that it inspired our enemies to begin wars in both Europe and the Middle East. Now we must ask ourselves, since we’re doing everything perfectly according to plan, why the hell doesn’t the public love us like they should?”
In an attempt to refresh the party’s image, the Democrats have turned to 83-year-old Senator Bernie Sanders, a man who lived through the Communist gulags of Russia, the Communist enslavement of Eastern Europe, the Communist slaughter in China, and the Communist genocide in Cambodia without once changing his opinion that Communism works great, especially in Norway, where they don’t have it. Sanders has been declared the new face of the Democrat party and has been teamed up with Alexandria Ocasio Cortez who has been declared the new rack of the Democrat party. Asked about this arrangement, Sheldon Whitehouse, the Junior Senator from the State of Unbelievable Corruption, said “With Bernie Sanders as our new face and AOC as our new rack we will have a hideous old face with a great rack and that’s a winning combination because when you have a great rack, no one looks at your face.”
<h3><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1223-stuck-in-the-story">WATCH: The Andrew Klavan Show</a></h3>
Sanders and AOC have been traveling the country staging what they call the “Rally in Favor of a Failed Economic System that has led to Enslavement and Mass Murder Wherever it’s Been Tried but For Some Reason we still Think Is Great.”
The rallies generally open with a ringing speech from Sanders who tells the crowd, “I happen to believe that billionaires should pay their fair share of utterly useless programs that nonetheless convince poor people to vote for us even as their states and cities descend into apocalyptic dysfunction because of those same programs. I happen to believe that socialism has worked really great, especially in Norway. And I happen to believe that what I happen to believe should happen to matter to every person who happens to care what an octogenarian Communist just happens to believe. And by the way, here’s AOC and, golly, will you look at the rack on that woman.”
When Sanders finishes his speech, he turns the microphone over to AOC who says, “I’ve come here today to say completely nonsensical things in a loud shrill voice full of make-believe sincerity. All across this country, I see people left behind by capitalism for no other reason than that they don’t work or contribute to society in any way. It isn’t fair. Well, okay, it actually is kind of fair, but it isn’t right. And even if it is right, I think there are enough total wastrels who feel entitled to a portion of the wealth created by other people that we might have enough votes to turn this country around. And hey, my eyes are up here. Why aren’t you looking in my eyes?”
So far the rallies have been filled with thousands of cheering people, most of them Republicans who feel they’ll never lose an election again.

A promotional video featuring a handful of female Democrats taking fight stances — while theme music from the Super Smash Brothers video game plays in the background — got absolutely trashed by critics.
In the video, which was originally posted on TikTok by influencer Sulhee Jessica Woo, also featured several female Democratic House members along with their &#8220;stats&#8221; — each of whom was shown posturing or shadowboxing for several seconds.

Woo superimposed angel wings on herself to kick off the video, listing her own stats as follows: &#8220;bento box queen; mommy of the century; sleep deprived.&#8221; Her post also included the hashtags, &#8220;#womenshistorymonth, #womenwhofight, #fighter, #savedemocracy, and #girlpower.&#8221;
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) appeared next, along with her stats: &#8220;New York&#8217;s 14th Congressional District; youngest women + Latina to be elected to the House; Trekkie.&#8221;
Next came Rep. Lauren Underwood (D-IL), who was described as the &#8220;youngest black woman ever elected to Congress; cofounded the black maternal office,&#8221; and &#8220;hates balloons.&#8221;
The video went on to describe Rep. Katherine Clark (D-MA), the House Minority Whip, as being from Massachusetts&#8217; 5th Congressional District and noted that she was &#8220;not into hair dye.&#8221;
Rep. Judy Chu (D-CA) was described as &#8220;too sweet,&#8221; and the post noted that she was the first Chinese-American woman elected to Congress.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) had the following stats listed: &#8220;Texas&#8217; 30th Congressional District; Public defender + attorney; not a morning person.&#8221;
The video concluded with Rep. Susie Lee (D-NV), who serves Nevada&#8217;s 3rd Congressional District, is &#8220;President of Communities in Schools of Nevada,&#8221; and apparently has &#8220;2 sprained fingers.&#8221;
Critics were not impressed with the attempt, however, and made it clear in their responses on X.
Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), for example, responded to the video with an application to clown college.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) claimed this week that Elon Musk, the CEO of multiple highly successful companies, was not a smart person.
AOC made the remarks in a video she posted on Instagram as Musk helps Trump eliminate wasteful government spending via the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
“This dude is probably one of the most unintelligent billionaires I have ever met or seen or witnessed,” AOC said.
“They don’t do their homework, clearly, like, they’re putting 19-year-olds in at the treasury,&#8221; she claimed. &#8220;This dude is not smart. And the danger in the lack of intelligence and the lack of expertise that Elon has &#8230; I mean, this guy is one of the most morally vacant, but also just least knowledgeable about these systems that we really know of.&#8221;
&#8220;But the point is that what that means is that they’re going to hit a button, inevitably, they are going to hit a button and things can go sideways,&#8221; she said.

AOC&#8217;s remarks come after Musk has repeatedly taunted and mocked her on social media.
Ocasio-Cortez&#8217;s latest attack on Musk comes after she accused him of making a Nazi salute at an inaugural celebration event last month.
“I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind a presidential seal,” she <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/news/alexandria-ocasio-cortez-rips-elon-090800264.html">said</a>. “In this country, we hate Nazis.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended Elon Musk on Thursday after far-Left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and others smeared him as a Nazi for a gesture that he made during President Donald Trump&#8217;s inaugural celebrations earlier this week.
Musk made the gesture at the end of his remarks inside Capitol One Arena when he told the crowd, “Thank you. My heart goes out to you.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

Ocasio-Cortez made the accusation during remarks she made during an Instagram livestream.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t care what Elon Musk is doing behind a presidential seal,&#8221; she said. &#8220;In this country, we hate Nazis.&#8221;

Netanyahu responded to accusations by saying that Musk was &#8220;being falsely smeared.&#8221;
&#8220;Elon is a great friend of Israel,&#8221; he said. &#8220;He visited Israel after the October 7 massacre in which Hamas terrorists committed the worst atrocity against the Jewish people since the Holocaust.&#8221;

&#8220;He has since repeatedly and forcefully supported Israel’s right to defend itself against genocidal terrorists and regimes who seek to annihilate the one and only Jewish state,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;I thank him for this.&#8221;
Even the left-wing Anti-Defamation League (ADL) defended Musk over the accusations.
&#8220;It seems that @elonmusk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge,&#8221; they said. &#8220;In this moment, all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath. This is a new beginning. Let’s hope for healing and work toward unity in the months and years ahead.&#8221;
AOC fumed at the ADL&#8217;s statement: &#8220;Just to be clear, you are defending a Heil Hitler salute that was performed and repeated for emphasis and clarity.&#8221;
&#8220;People can officially stop listening to you as any sort of reputable source of information now,&#8221; she said. &#8220;You work for them. Thank you for making that crystal clear to all.&#8221;

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/sunny-hostin" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sunny Hostin</a> claimed on Wednesday that self-described Democratic socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was not actually as &#8220;far-Left&#8221; as Republicans say — but the evidence she offered made the opposite of her intended point.
Hostin&#8217;s assessment comes just a day after Ocasio-Cortez <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/aoc-loses-bid-to-become-top-oversight-dem" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lost her bid</a> to be the ranking member of the powerful House Oversight Committee — the position went instead to Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-VA), who was reportedly backed by former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
&#8220;The other thing that I will say is — about AOC — she has been demonized by the Right, and she&#8217;s been demonized as this, like, too progressive far-Left person,&#8221; Hostin complained. &#8220;And I want to set — try to set the record straight because if she is too progressive then the Democrats really are going to lose the working class.&#8221;
Hostin made no effort to explain the shift to the right — and toward President-elect Donald Trump in particular — among working class voters, insisting instead that the policies Ocasio-Cortez supported were proof that she was not &#8220;far-Left.&#8221;

&#8220;This is her platform, the key issues: health care for all people, affordable housing, rebuild the unions, federal job guarantee, free public college, create clean energy jobs, paid parental leave, and expand protections for the LGBTQ+ community,&#8221; Hostin read.

Hostin tried to object, claiming that the Green New Deal would create &#8220;millions&#8221; of new jobs, but Griffin kept going.
She went on to note that many Americans did not like the idea of universal health care either, mainly because it would take choice out of the equation: &#8220;I would argue that AOC is definitely too left for the majority of the country.&#8221;

The View

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was mocked this week after claiming that the United States was about to enter a time of &#8220;fascism&#8221; after President-elect Donald Trump beat Vice President Kamala Harris.
&#8220;We are about to enter a political period that will have consequences for the rest of our lives. We cannot give up,&#8221; the leftist lawmaker said in a video <a href="https://www.instagram.com/teamaoc/reel/DCE_5V3Rhau/">posted</a> on social media.
&#8220;We now find ourselves in a time in history that has precedent and we find ourselves, I believe, in a time where there are, let&#8217;s say, peers in history of mass movements of people that mobilize to protect one another, in times of fascism and authoritarianism,&#8221; she said.
&#8220;And this is the era that we are poised to enter,&#8221; she claimed. &#8220;Donald Trump has talked about turning the military on US citizens that he deems his domestic political enemies, authoritarians, and people that he affiliates closely with and strong men abroad.&#8221;
She fretted that Trump may &#8220;jail political dissidents or legislative opponents&#8221; in his upcoming term.
&#8220;This is the world that we very realistically may be entering,&#8221; she claimed.

Media analyst Joe Concha <a href="https://x.com/JoeConchaTV/status/1854406732136526183">responded</a> to AOC&#8217;s rant: &#8220;AOC is one of the main reasons the Democratic Party is where it is right now. Take your cues from her or MSNBC or CNN and expect this result.&#8221;
Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon <a href="https://x.com/SethDillon/status/1854413467588972937">responded</a>: &#8220;This is all they’ve got. Even after they lose because of it, they can’t help but double down.&#8221;
