Freshman congressman Occasio Cortez and Tliab - the most radical element of the Dem Party and self proclaimed socialist/communists, have now been placed on the finance committee overseeing Wall Street among other things.
These are posts for veterans, yet the political pressure within the party is such that they appointed these two airheads to critical roles already.

is nothing "sudden" about my insights. They come from many years of experience and observation.

What an idiot to say this - proving my point yet again. Also, what a fucking hypocrite.

is too stupid and fake (look at her real background) to not be given her direction by the group that fronted her....the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America) of which she is still a card carrying member.
Interestingly, her ties to the DSA who was key in setting her up for her primary win has been scrubbed from her Wikipedia page as well as most other Left wing sources. Only NPR still acknowledges it tha I could find.
Instead, the search engine guesses as you type in her name flash initially to Occasio in bikini, who is Occasio’s boyfriend, Occasio dancing and the other superfluous type of junk that impress the incredibly shallow and uneducated millennial population.
She is a radical, community organizer who wants to impose a 70% tax on the “rich” (which middle class will qualify for), she wants to abolish ICE, and she wants free college/housing/transport/ for all.
Of course her policies will drive off any who could pay for it.
s' money runs out. We are cooked. Only the very people who they want to take down will survive a socialist system.

Winston Smith looked at the pieces of papers:
-- times 19.10.84 minitrue malquoted party affiliation rectify
-- times 17.3.83 reporting doubleplusungood refs unpersons Russia rewrite fullwise upsub antefiling
With a faint feeling of satisfaction Winston laid the second message aside. It was an intricate and responsible job and had better be dealt with last. The other was a routine matter.
Winston dialed 'back numbers' on the telescreen and called for the appropriate issues of The Times, which slid out of the pneumatic tube after only a few minutes' delay. The messages he had received referred to articles or news items which for one reason or another it was thought necessary to alter, or, as the official phrase had it, to rectify. For example, it appeared from The Times of the seventeenth of March that Big Brother, in his speech of the previous day, had mentioned meetings by Democrat affiliated people with Russian oligarchs, and had predicted that the relationship with Russia would be reset, and the that Russia was no longer an enemy, and that more flexibility would be shown to Russia. As it happened, those Democrat people lost their election, and the Party Authority instead had launched a year long scathing verbal offensive against Russia. It was therefore necessary to rewrite a paragraph of Big Brother's speech, in such a way as to make him predict the thing that had actually happened. Or again, The Times of the nineteenth of October had published the official statement that certain persons seeking election were members of the Socialist Party. Today's issue contained a statement of the actual affiliation of Democrat, from which it appeared that the previous affiliation with the Socialists was wrong. Winston's job was to rectify the original statement by making it agree with the later one. It was a very simple error which could be set right in a couple of minutes, by eliminating the previous party affiliation from the previous issue of the Times.
As soon as Winston had dealt with each of the messages, he clipped his speakwritten corrections to the appropriate copy of The Times and pushed them into the pneumatic tube. Then, with a movement which was as nearly as possible unconscious, he crumpled up the original message and any notes that he himself had made, and dropped them into the memory hole to be devoured by the flames.
What happened in the unseen labyrinth to which the pneumatic tubes led, he did not know in detail, but he did know in general terms. As soon as all the corrections which happened to be necessary in any particular number of The Times had been assembled and collated, that number would be reprinted, the original copy destroyed, and the corrected copy placed on the files in its stead. This process of continuous alteration was applied not only to newspapers, but to books, periodicals, pamphlets, posters, leaflets, films, sound-tracks, cartoons, photographs -- to every kind of literature or documentation which might conceivably hold any political or ideological significance. Day by day and almost minute by minute the past was brought up to date. In this way every prediction made by the Party could be shown by documentary evidence to have been correct, nor was any item of news, or any expression of opinion, which conflicted with the needs of the moment, ever allowed to remain on record. All history was a palimpsest, scraped clean and reinscribed exactly as often as was necessary. In no case would it have been possible, once the deed was done, to prove that any falsification had taken place. The largest section of the Records Department, far larger than the one on which Winston worked, consisted simply of persons whose duty it was to track down and collect all copies of books, newspapers, and other documents which had been superseded and were due for destruction. A number of The Times which might, because of changes in political alignment, or mistaken prophecies uttered by Big Brother, have been rewritten a dozen times still stood on the files bearing its original date, and no other copy existed to contradict it. Books, also, were recalled and rewritten again and again, and were invariably reissued without any admission that any alteration had been made. Even the written instructions which Winston received, and which he invariably got rid of as soon as he had dealt with them, never stated or implied that an act of forgery was to be committed: always the reference was to slips, errors, misprints, or misquotations which it was necessary to put right in the interests of accuracy.
But, actually, he thought as he re-adjusted the Ministry of Truth's statements, it was not even forgery. It was merely the substitution of one piece of nonsense for another. ... And so it was with every class of recorded fact, great or small. Everything faded away into a shadow-world in which, finally, even the date of the year had become uncertain.
...Obama is FAR more intelligent. Nonetheless, bothwere completely unqualified when elected to congress, and both were community organizers Both possessed a smooth physical appearance, and both were put forth by the string pullers of the radical Dem faction. Fortunately, Obama was infinitley more gifted at speaking than this airhead...but if she just has to text to millenials these days...who will know or care?
