USA – -(AmmoLand.com)- Freshman U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., is a “puppet congresswoman,” and “the people controlling her are very dangerous.”
It sounds like a crazy conspiracy theory, acknowledges actor, writer and political commentator, Christopher Patrick Kohls. But the first-hand evidence is there for anyone to see, he contends in a youtube video produced under his Mr. Reagan moniker.
“Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not really the congresswoman of New York’s 14th Congressional District,” he says provocatively as he opens the video. “She is essentially an actress. She’s merely playing the part of a New York congresswoman.”
Kohls explains that in 2017, a progressive group that formed in response to Trump’s election called the Justice Democrats held “auditions” for potential congressional candidates to run on their platform.
As evidence, he runs a clip from a Justice Democrats video.
“Back in 2016, we put out a call for nominations,” says the group’s executive director, Alexandra Rojas. “We got over 10,000 nominations. Out of those 10,000 nominations, we found Alexandria.”
Ocasio-Cortez herself, in another video, says her brother nominated her.
“My brother told me that he had sent my nomination in the summer, but I was, like, literally working out of a restaurant then. And I was like, there’s no way,” she says.
Kohls comments: “A casting call. They had a casting call. They cast Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in the role of congresswoman. And they did this so they could promote their own agenda. Justice Democrats, on its website, (https://www.justicedemocrats.com/issues/) says it aims to reform the Democratic Party by running “a unified campaign to replace every corporate-backed member of Congress.”
In a feature on the group, the New York Times noted that in 2018, Justice Democrats endorsed 78 candidates and recruited 12 to run for office.
Of those 12, Ocasio-Cortez was the only one who won her general election.
However, six other endorsed candidates won, and among them are two other freshman House members who have joined Ocasio-Cortez in challenging the power of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi: Muslim Reps. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota.
Last week, their power was demonstrated when a House Democratic Party resolution originally intended to reprimand Omar for anti-Semitic remarks was watered down. Before it went to a vote, Omar’s name was omitted, and a long list of other forms of bigotry were added.
Meanwhile, two Justice Democrats tenets, “Medicare for all” and the Green New Deal have become litmus tests for Democratic presidential candidates.
Ocasio-Cortez and her former chief of staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, one of the founders of Justice Democrats, are the targets of a Federal Elections Commission complaint by the National Legal and Policy Center alleging violations of campaign-finance laws.
Like Obama’s puppeteers, AOC’s clearly follow Alinsky’s recipe outlined in his Rules For Radicals cookbook. The Kohl analysis is the best I’ve ever read. It should be front-page news, a public forewarning. Unfortunately, most people are unwilling or unable to concentrate well enough to grasp the complexities. AOC’s fake promise to save the planet and get free stuff by sacrificing freedom is, as communism, most appealing to lazy, sound-bite-addicted voters. I wish some talented screenwriter would condense the Zack/Alinsky plot into cartoon form, as a substitute for real History lessons, which are no longer taught in schools. Otherwise, so long… Read more »
I think we better take the gloves off, damn soon. We’re getting played, but it’s a dangerous game called “Kill the Republic”.
And how do you get rid of communists? You have to kill them. All of them.
Mr. Reagan has The Brians Behind AOC Part 2:
He has done some good, independent research on the Justice Democrats.
I wish they would elect a couple more of these dim wits, they do the democrate party so much good. Trump in 2020, yahoo!.
All three of them are the piece to the puzzle we didn’t know from where they came. Now it makes sense and if congress was more than a good ole boy’s club they would do something about the founder of this circus. These three, along with the mismatched bunch running for president, are making a laughing stock of our Republic form of government. It’s nothing but fun and games for these idiots while we are stupid enough to believe they will change everything to a free smorasboard for everyone. Lesson learned yet?
As far as I know it is Geo. Soros who is the $ behind that organization. When will we run his a** out of the country, along with his worthless kids.
All that money spent on her – new clothes – high dollar apartment – socialist living the good life on taxpayers dime – and her ratings in NY are lower than President Trumps. Ouch!
Cortez walked into a bar and yelled drinks for everyone, who is paying?
Nuff said…….
Great Job!! Americans need to Stand Up and Stand Out!! Thank u
Not hard to believe after hearing what comes out of her mouth. She checks a lot of boxes, pretty, good TV looks, POC, and the big one, dumb enough or egotistical to go along with the hoax. I seem to be describing a lot of our legislators.
