Who Is Behind The Braying Ass? The Story Of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
There's an interesting video below the fold that speaks to the defensible suggestion that AOC (Alexandria Donkey-Chompers to her friends) is a figurehead who was chosen (almost literally) from central casting to be the face of some very bad people.
Whether the gentleman in the video is correct seems to be of less importance than the reality that dear old Donkey-Chompers is spewing socialist pablum rechewed for our current crop of poorly educated idiots. Don't be fooled by your visceral dislike for her. She is relatively attractive, speaks the language of the college-graduate barrista, and affects the image of a young and earnest "community activist" who is being attacked by the entrenched interests that want nothing of her unicorns and rainbows world. It doesn't matter whose words they are...she may be (and probably is) an empty-headed retard without an original thought in her entire body, but so what? Marshall McLuhan said, "The medium is the message," and they have a good one in Donkey-Chompers! After you watch the video (there will be a test on Tuesday), here's an assignment: There are some words that are clear tip-offs to the logic-free manipulation that the progressives are so good at...."mobilization" is my favorite, "justice" is a classic, but there are dozens that make my ears tingle and my fists clench.... How about you? What are the left's buzzwords that really get under your skin?Comments

Reagan spent years learning and refining his understanding of conservatism. By the time he won he could debate anyone based on the depth of his knowledge. AOC has no idea what the words coming out of her mouth mean.
She's a star as long as she is in front of a friendly audience which is pretty much the only place she will go. If she was ever challenged, and she will be if she wants to go to the next level, she would fall apart in a heartbeat.

I want to ask them, at what point in the history of the Earth's climate was it NOT changing? Change is what climate does. If climate didn't change, you're left with stasis and maybe mass extinctions.
It's deceptive, because "climate change" is being used as a synonym for "catastrophic manmade climate change"
Also the phrase "climate denier". Really? So we're denying there's any such thing as climate? Add to that the intentional evocation of "Holocaust denier".

It's just a variation on the notion of defining terms. No different than crying "strawman". Or invoking Chesterton's Fence.
Every argument lives or dies on it's own. When people start trying to define the terms of argument - by assuming they can define terms, or tone of speech, or just going full bore and picking who can or can not talk - it's just an attempt to control argument.

C.S. Lewis wrote an interesting essay on that subject, which I read many years ago and only vaguely remember. So I'm probably misrepresenting. But the distinction he pointed out (I love his distinctions) was that the Old Testament uses the word justice in two distinct ways.
One is the aggrieved victim crying out for retribution, and the other is the judgements of God which are altogether righteous.

I think the psychology is different. Why would you vote for a woman because you want to pork her? Porking the leader makes no sense for a man. They at least subconsciously want to protect women, and protecting the leader who is protecting you makes zero sense.
The corresponding sentiment for women does make sense in light of feminine psychology (insofar as I understand it!). They at least subconsciously look for a protector and provider, ideally an alpha male, the "leader of the pack." Conflating political support with sexual desire makes PERFECT sense for them.

My reaction is meh, on top of skepticism about the premise.
She's from a one-party district. The incumbent was a typical, though lazier than usual, seat-warming incumbent-for-life. The district has changed to become "more vibrant" in the current lingo. Apparently the incumbent didn't even bother to do the normal machine-oiling stuff these creatures usually do. She received 16K votes - in a congressional district.
The primary is the election (as it is in most races in the US). She could have become Rep. Steven King between primary and general, and won by the same margin. We're talking robotic, tribal, ID-driven, inertia-soaked typical congressional voting here.
"our current crop of poorly educated idiots" - THAT is where our problem lies, not in shadowy evil figures. I just wonder about the need to always find sinister unseen forces behind mundane, if disastrous, trends in our society.
It's like being in a discussion with Arabs in the Middle East (most). Nothing but exotic 1,456-dimensional conspiracy explanations for almost everything. Reality is a lot simpler, and in this case, a lot worse, than a B-movie plot about unseen forces.

The buzzphrase "progressive values" is one that grates on me like you have no idea.
"Progressive values" are diametrically opposed to everything that we Americans stand for. This is one of those things that's almost too simple to explain: if they're uttering that phrase, they aren't promoting American values. Her Heinous described herself as "a proud Progressive" as opposed to "a proud American." They're not even trying to hide their mysterious hatred of their country that has given them (and the rest of the world) so many good things.
If you want an example, the Kavanaugh hearings was an excellent one. We were to automatically believe all accusers just because they are accusers. The idea of "innocent until proven guilty" did not apply, and the idea that if a rape did occur, to report it to the police immediately got totally ignored.
Progressives are filthy communists who happen to call themselves Americans. They are nothing of the sort, for they do not believe in American values such as the ones pointed out above, nor do they believe in personal and individual responsibility. They don't believe in self-control which is why they're all pretty much sex-crazed animals.
Progressives are mentally ill control freaks and are a real and present danger to all of us. We need to find them, root them out and make certain they never gain power. If we fail to do that, we will all regret it. #PurgeProgressives

This sort of thing happens periodically - incumbents in one-party districts asleep at the switch get caught and upended.
Igno - I've read, and it stands to reason, that the district is chock full of Dem machine operatives who were biding their time and looking ahead to some day replace Crowley - and who are now furious some nobody/idiot has stolen their eventual prize. Seems likely she will be vulnerable to a primary challenge. What say ye?

And speaking of deportation, in this week's Judicial Lawlessness Round-up, we have a panel of the 9th just brushing aside the entire purpose, history, constitutional basis, and text of settled law to give deportation cases the right of judicial review. Likely to be over-turned (hmm, well, maybe I shouldn't be so breezy about such things any more), another circuit came down the other way on a similar case, but still.
It's already ridiculously difficult to deport most people. Far, far more difficult and time-consuming than it was just a few years back (for no good reason, of course). Now this.

I do agree that Occasional Cortex is being pushed. Someone is backing her and greasing her way. She is NOT where she is now based on her own merit and popularity.
Whoever it is, obviously they can put a hand out and arrange press coverage and Congressional committee assignments.
It will be really interesting to see if the NY DNC snuffs out OC by primary or simple gerrymandering her district out of existence. That will tell us a bit more about where the power center for the Democratic Party lies.

He could, but He won't. Things got out of hand long ago and nothing was done to stop it. It will get a hell of a lot worse, too.
The mere fact that the people who are theoretically supposed to stand in our stead, represent us and do what we want done at the national level absolutely refuse to do so should frighten the daylights out of you. Note that some 70% of Americans want the Mexican border secured, and have for many years.
Is it now secure? Or are there still illegals crossing it each and every day? How about ObamaCare? Did that finally get repealed after years of promising to do so and many bills passed to do that? Hmmm?

Real definition: places so violent nobody can run a successful business there including grocery store chains with lots of security. Profits are completely offset by vandalism, burglary and shoplifting.

All of the information, aside from the guy's melodrama, is out there in various recent news articles and from their websites (unless they've been recently edited).
There's also an AOC documentary about her campaign that Netflix bought for $10 million, so I assume those clips included in the Mr. Reagan vid are from that.
So, Chakrabarti and his fellow Bernie friends are quite proud about what they've done, and their spokesman, Walid Shahid openly announced their plans to take control of the Democrats, and Congress in The Nation last month.

AOC has star power because Media gives her oxygen. Media can't help themselves, because AOC is a school bus on fire. "oh no she didn't!"
Because she has star power she won't lose a primary in 2020. No one else can contend in a district that's 50% Hispanic (mostly Puerto Rican) and only 12% black.
Nor can you gerrymander her out by redistricting. You can't draw a district that includes her nominal home in Bronx Parkchester that won't be majority Hispanic.

I would have thought so, but now that the people behind this are her Congressional staff, and her name is at the top of the Brand New Congress PAC, it appears they're really invested in AOC in particular as their front person. Pair that with the uncritical, Obama-like love she gets from the MSM, I'm not sure what she could do that they couldn't save her from. The FEC is clearly partisan, choosing to not look into obvious illegalities (Hillary laundering $84 MILLION through the DNC), so I am not confident the illegal campaign stuff will stick.

The God of the Bible is to be clearly distinguished, not merely from the God of the pantheists, who has no existence separate from His creation, but also from the God of the deists, who has created the world, put into it all the necessary powers of self-government and development, set it going, and left it to go by itself. The God of the Bible is a God who is personally and actively present in the affairs of the universe today. He sustains, governs, and cares for the world He has created; He shapes the whole present history of the world. He has a present, personal interest and an active hand in the concerns of people, and it is He who is behind all the events that are occurring today. He reigns and makes even the wrath of men to praise Him, and the remainder of wrath He restrains (Psalm 76:10).
Armies may clash, force and violence and outrage may seem victorious for the passing hour, but God stand triumphant over all. Through all the confusion and the discord and the turmoil and the agony and the ruin, through all the outrageous atrocities that are making men's hearts stand still with horror, He is carrying out His own purposes of love and making all things work together for good to those who love Him (Romans 8:2

Oh, I agree. This did not just all fall into place. It is not as if one day AOC thought to herself, "Oh, I think I'll run for Congress".
Hardly.
But the strategy they used was at minimal cost, and calculated for likely outcome, which might be the case for any political run, but in this one, it was to circumvent any serious opposition.

mode are:
Community (NO I am not part of, you are not part of, NOBODY is part of, a group of identitcal snap-in Lego-people)
Conversation ("You NEED to have that conversation with your kids" is better-conveyed as "tell your children about the dangers of -" whatever crise-du-jour they're harping on.)
Reach out to (as a verb meaning "contact"; why not use the simpler "talk to"?)
Dialog (though it seems to be dying out in usage, since everybody now mentally translates it, appropriately, as "harangue".)
Invest (when it's being used as a synonym for "useless spending to benefit a Progressive cause"; note that an actual "investment" expects a return of the principal invested, plus some amount of profit.)
Discriminate/ discrimination (to "discriminate" is to discern the difference between one thing and another <often with the assumption that one of the things being evaluated is preferable in some way>. To *not* discriminate is to accept that the objects being observed are identical, interchangeable, and of equal value. Part of the evil of socialism and/or totalitarianism is the insistence on regarding human beings as "the masses"; as NPC's: as non-specific "things" with no individual value, useful only if they can be manipulated in large groups for their votes or their labor/productivity.)

Interestingly, Ms Cortez may have a tax liability of her own. It seems that a publishing venture that she started right after she graduated from college went bust. The venture never took off, and she owes about $1800 to the state of New York. You can read the article by Thomas Lifson at the American Thinker: https://tinyurl.com/y2hb7qoq
