It’s getting harder and harder to take Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez seriously. She may be extremely popular on social media to radical progressives, keyboard social justice warriors, and left-wing bot accounts, but she’s losing her edge when it comes to promoting extreme ideas. Other radicals have been stealing her thunder, so her natural response is one of the most predictable we’ve seen in DC in recent years. She doubled down on crazy ideas.
Her latest scheme was to attempt to make a logical argument for “abolishing prisons” by highlighting anecdotal incidents that represent a tiny portion of the prison population. Then, she went further to essentially say she’s owning the conservatives by getting them talking about her crazy ideas. This is not a serious person, let alone a serious politician. That’s not to say she’s not good at politics; her Justice Democrats handlers have coached her well. But she’s letting her ego get the best of her as she promotes ideas that even many radicals will deem incoherent at best.
Mass incarceration is our American reality. It is a system whose logic evolved from the same lineage as Jim Crow, American apartheid, & slavery.
To end it, we have to change.
That means we need to have a real conversation about decarceration & prison abolition in this country. https://t.co/9E9NTAmBNi

Yesterday morning I spoke with a woman who was thrown in Rikers as a teenager. Put in solitary confinement for MONTHS, aka torture. Force-fed pills.
The conditions were so bad, she too had drank out of toilets.
A cage is a cage is a cage. And humans don’t belong in them.

First of all, many people in jailed or in prison don’t belong there at all.
Whether it’s punitive sentencing for marijuana possession or jailing people for their poverty & letting the rich free through systems like cash bail, we wrongly incarcerate far, far too many people.

Lastly, people tend to say “what do you do with all the violent people?” as a defense for incarcerating millions.
Our lawmaking process means we come to solutions together, &either way we should work to an end where our prison system is dramatically smaller than it is today.

After this, she apparently got a call from her handlers telling her to tone it down because she instantly changed subjects to the Democrats’ rallying cry, “Get Trump!”
Call me lazy, but I’m not even going to attempt to tackle her Tweets detail-by-detail to debunk her thinking and sink what she’s proposing. It’s just too easy and I’m sure our readers are well aware how ludicrous she really is. We’ll leave it to Twitter reactions to express how everyone should feel about her concepts on criminal justice reform:
"Also, we need to make it a federal felony to own the most commonly sold rifle in the country, to own a gun without a license, and to let your friend borrow your shotgun for hunting without going through a background check." https://t.co/5SzNn587Rq

But you’ll incarcerate millions of gun owners because of their lawfully-owned firearms. https://t.co/owjHDLdNkX

She's just trolling, right?
She couldn't… I mean she doesn't actually… No sane person would call for…
Wow. She's not trolling. She's serious.
The only "serious talk" that should come from this is how quickly her district can say, "bye!" https://t.co/M3cqCi8nym

You want to abolish prisons? Wise idea. We could have the rapists and murderers and thieves and child molesters come live with you. https://t.co/Jzo8TegvwY

This isn’t a joke. She’s dead serious. This is what the radical progressive left wants for America. Some are calling it anarchy, but that’s only partially true. They want to use chaos to force their ultimate goal of authoritarian rule.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
