Update (1615ET): AOC is making further headlines as a NYPost report exposes her lavish “locked-down” lifestyle:
“While Queens and The Bronx have lines down the block at hospitals and grocery stores, AOC is holed up at a brand new luxury apartment where she shops at Whole Foods in her lobby,” Democratic primary opponent Michelle Caruso-Cabrera said.
“That’s shameful. No wonder voters think that she is out of touch. She has a golf-simulator and infinity pool and Peloton Cycle room as well as other luxuries while families in the Bronx and Queens are worried about how long the lines are at the grocery store and where they are going to get their next paycheck. AOC isn’t even here to see their desperation and their struggle to survive with her own eyes,” the challenger said.
As Kyle Bass tweeted after the report: MCC is a friend and a great Democrat who should rep the Bronx in Congress.

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has called for coronavirus “reparations” for black and brown people, claiming that “environmental racism” is an “underlying health condition.”
Yes, really.
“COVID deaths are disproportionately spiking in Black + Brown communities,” tweeted the Democrat lawmaker. “Why? Because the chronic toll of redlining, environmental racism, wealth gap, etc. ARE underlying health conditions. Inequality is a comorbidity. COVID relief should be drafted with a lens of reparations.”

AOC provided no source to substantiate the claim that COVID-19 deaths were spiking in black or brown communities (coronavirus deaths would naturally be higher in any densely populated area), nor did she explain how the environment can be racist.
One of her supporters responded to the tweet by suggesting there was some kind of conspiracy amongst store owners in black areas not to enforce social distancing properly.
However, another respondent suggested that black and brown people were deliberately flouting social distancing rules and putting themselves at greater risk.
Is it that? Or maybe they're not heading the warning and still filling up streets and local parks en-mass?

Another individual suggested that black bodies “work differently” and that this was also the fault of white supremacy.
Their bodies also WORK DIFFERENTLY, and we blatantly IGNORE THIS in medicine and don't study the differences and then adjust treatment for. White supremacy pervades EVERYTHING.

Ocasio-Cortez previously waded into the coronavirus debate by demanding the FDA relax rules on blood donation, allowing homosexuals to donate blood despite a greater risk of infection. The rule was subsequently relaxed.

We need ‘None of the above’ on every ballot.
If ‘None of the above’ wins the election for any particular office, that office remains unoccupied for the full normal term.
Wouldn’t it be marvelous to have your vote actually count for something which is nothing?
Brilliant, so of course not a chance in hell.
the soviet union had exactly that. every cycle the party plenum would select the candidates for the various positions – one candidate for each position – and present those single candidates to the population at large for a vote – yes or no. no campaigning, no discussion, just an appointment and a yes/no vote.
typically, .97 voted yes and .03 voted no. don’t know what happened to the ones that voted no.

‘Their bodies also WORK DIFFERENTLY,…’
Ah, but race is just a social construct..
The Stupid, it burns.
It didn’t take long for this “democratic socialist” to move on up to a deeeluxe apartment in the sky.
She’ll probably end up like that other socialist, Bernie who owns 3 homes.
AOC doesn’t get that black people (and some brown) refuse to follow the rules. Then when they get caught what do they say? “Idinnentdonuffin”!
“Because the chronic toll of redlining, environmental racism, wealth gap, etc. ARE underlying health conditions.”
actually the primary underlying condition is them.
Where did I put that double barrel …………………. oh I found it!, it was in the fish tank. 😉

AOC is a really stupid person, but the people who elected her are even more stupid than she is.
Apparently only 9% of the residents of her district voted … hordes of illegal aliens in that district.
And, according to a recent article, those are the types of districts that democrats like — they win elections in districts with a large number and proportion of ineligible voters …

“Apparently only 9% of the residents….voted.”
That’s more than voted for DeBlahzio.
I’d hit it and quit it!
So she wants those in the LGBT community to die? That’s what she’s saying by her exclusionary language.
A well reasoned and logical response to AOC’s preposterous demand. Fuck off cunt!
Why are we trying to turn America into a Bangladeshi shantytown? I don’t care who wants to come to this country legally but it seems like both parties want Judeo Christian white men and women gone and replaced by third world immigrants. They encourage it and import hundreds of thousands every year. Sadly numbers say it will happen but hopefully when it does I will be dead. The 20th century will be missed.
Reparations? Sure, why not. A few trillion here, a few trillion there. What the hell difference does it make at this point. Seriously, none of it will ever be paid back. So why not. It is now that absurd. Might as well go whole hog.
Is this dumb bitch aware that all of the 3d world nurses aides in the NYC hospitals — all from the Caribbean (haiti, bahamas, etc.) — do NOT believe in germs or the relationship between germs and disease — therefore they don’t wear masks or gloves or any PPE (which is not only to protect them, but to protect the patients).
And filipino nurses are no better … and let’s not even get to the fact that a lot of these 3d world ‘nurses’ don’t speak English worth a damn — and, of course, the states have had to lower standards drastically so that they can even become ‘nurses’.
Bitch needs a stiff ride and to be put to bed
