    His ownership was a key point in the "cheating" photos and texts of him that another rag threatened to publish. Bezos claimed in a blog post that American Media (National Enquirer) threatened to publish photographs, including a “below the belt selfie,” unless he publicly stated that The Enquirer’s reporting on his affair with Lauren Sanchez was not “politically motivated or influenced by political forces.”

    Lol. Solid stuff.

    Occasional Kotex at it again....

    "One perfect example, I think a perfect example of how special interests and the powerful have pitted white working-class Americans against brown and black working-class Americans in order to just screw over all working-class Americans, is Reaganism in the '80s when he started talking about welfare queens," Ocaiso-Cortez said. "So you think about this image of welfare queens and what he was really trying to talk about was ... this like really resentful vision of essentially black women who were doing nothing that were 'sucks' on our country."

    "And it's this whole tragedy of the commons type of thinking where it's like because these one, this one specific group of people, that you are already kind of subconsciously primed to resent, you give them a different reason that's not explicit racism but still rooted in a racist caricature," Ocasio-Cortez continued. "It gives people a logical reason, a 'logical' reason to say, 'oh yeah, no, toss out the whole social safety net."

    Anyone know what "commons type" even means?

    There's more....

    "Asked moments later about the Green New Deal, Medicare for All, and the $15 minimum wage, Ocasio-Cortez suggested that America is in decline and that the current state of America is "garbage."

    "I think the thing that is really hard for people to sometimes see is that when we are on this path of a slow erosion and a slow, slow, slow, just like move away from what we've always been, we'll be a hundred miles, you'll, you know you won't even realize that you've drifted a hundred miles," Ocasio-Cortez said. "So, when someone's talking about our core, it's like oh this is radical, but this isn't radical, this is what we've always been."

    The Great Communicator she isn't. Literally.....dumb AF.

    "It's just that now we've strayed so far away from what has really made us powerful, and just, and good, and equitable, and productive, and so I think all of these things sound radical compared to where we are but where we are is not a good thing," Ocasio-Cortez continued. "And this idea of like 10% better from garbage, is, shouldn't be what we settle for, it's like this like it feels like moderate is not a stance it's just an attitude toward life of like hmmm."

    It’s sad that she’s considered a leading light of young political thought by so many. Her path is that of Castro, Chavez and Maduro. Take a prosperous country and wreck it.
    Yes she’s dumb as F but too many listen to her and like what she says.

    @uscvball There are brains behind AOC? Makes sense, there certainly aren't any in her head.

    Interesting and not totally surprising. However whether it’s actually her or she’s just Memorex it’s a very troubling situation.
    How far left can they push the country is the question.
