Virtually No One Watches AOC’s Climate Hysteria Movie

Don’t feel bad, Disney. Although your attempts to ram homosexuality down children’s throats have been crashing at the box office (Strange World, Lightyear), prominent Democrat congresscritter Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has produced a still greater failure:

Her Climate Change (which is a hoax) documentary grossed just $81 per screen.

Director Rachel Lears’ To the End screened at Sundance, features AOC and made its weekend debut on 120 screens.

On those 120 screens, it grossed just $9,667, which averages to $81 per screen.

Critics love it, which is all the more reason for audiences to stay away.

Awful as this movie looks, it is surprising that well under a thousand out of a third of a billion Americans were willing to watch it. AOC’s climate delusions may prove to be highly relevant to our daily lives.

Along with ultra-left Senator Ed Markey, AOC is the ostensible author of the Green New Deal, an apocalyptic program of total social transformation reminiscent of what the Khmer Rouge inflicted on Cambodia. Democrats have already managed to impose some of it through the massive spending blowouts that are largely to blame for runaway inflation. When they achieve the leverage, they will hit us with the rest.

If AOC is the Future of the Democratic Party, as the liberal establishment media and former Democratic National Committee Chair Thomas Perez attest, her climate kookiness isn’t just the random raving of a malevolent lunatic; it is what we will have to live under, assuming Democrats prevail.

Ed Markey Menaces Elon Musk

The purpose of the climate crisis hoax is to provide a veneer of ostensibly benevolent intentions. Leftist Senator Ed Markey (D-MA), cosponsor of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal, makes it easy to see through to what lies beneath.

After making many $millions on government-subsidized electric cars, Elon Musk has betrayed the liberal establishment by indicating that he will allow free speech on Twitter. This enrages Markey to the point of letting his mask slip:

Markey demanded answers from Musk about Twitter’s verification process after the Democratic lawmaker colluded with a Washington Post writer to create a Twitter account impersonating him. …

In a letter, Markey demanded answers from Musk for the “haphazard imposition” of changes to Twitter because “[a]llowing an imposter to impersonate a U.S. Senator on Twitter is a serious matter that you need to address promptly.” Of course, Markey failed to disclose in the letter that he gave the Washington Post writer permission to impersonate him.

This is not about impersonation; the purpose is to put a scare into Musk so that he will not allow speech that contradicts the party line. Orwell would have called such speech “thoughtcrime.” Democrats call it “misinformation” or “disinformation.” They don’t have to worry about hearing it from the Washington Post.

Markey then drew attention to his complaint by going on Twitter to accuse Musk of “putting profits over people and his debt over stopping disinformation.”

“Putting profits over people” is boilerplate Marxist rhetoric. The reference to “disinformation” is a demand for political censorship of the sort imposed under Twitter’s previous owners.

Musk did not become the world’s richest man by being easy to push around. His response:

“Perhaps it is because your real account sounds like a parody?” Musk mocked.

“And why does your [profile picture] have a mask!?” he said.

That brought the mask off. Growled Markey:

Fix your companies. Or Congress will.

Biden too has threatened Musk, croaking about inflicting a federal investigation regarding his “relationships with other countries.” This is rich, coming from a swamp creature who openly boasted of using US taxpayer money to protect his bagman Hunter’s unsavory activities in Ukraine, and who required the help of Twitter to suppress information regarding his influence peddling to our communist Chinese adversaries. The media has been egging on Biden, asking whether Musk is a threat to national security.

Democrats may as well drop the global warming window dressing. By now we all know what we are dealing with: tyranny.

Biden et al. Blame GOP for Paul Pelosi Attack

At this point, January 6 is all Democrats have. Consequently, everything is about January 6 — even a lunatic in his underwear breaking into Nancy Pelosi’s house and assaulting her husband. Watch in amazement as Joe Biden manages to hit yet another new low:

Quoth the Great Uniter:

“You know, it’s reported that the same chant was used by this guy they have in custody that was used on January 6 in the attack on the US Capitol. I’m not making this up. This has just been reported. I can’t guarantee it. I can tell you what’s been reported. The chant was, ‘Where’s Nancy? Where’s Nancy? Where’s Nancy?’

“This is despicable. There’s no place in America! There’s too much violence, political violence. Too much hatred. Too much vitriol. And what makes us think that one party can talk about stolen elections [quack quack quack…]?”

He goes on to explain that Republicans caused the nudist hemp jewelry maker from Berkeley David DePape to attack Paul Pelosi because they “corrode the political climate.”

As noted at BizPac Review,

The hypocrisy in the accusation over Paul Pelosi’s attack is rich and many have noted it. No such condemnation was forthcoming over the attempted murder of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

Vice President Kamala Harris also engaged in the disingenuous attempt to link the Pelosi attack to Jan. 6, according to the Daily Mail.

Unsurprisingly, leftist congresscritters Ilhan Omar and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are on the same page.

Dishonorary Democrat Adam Kinzinger confirms that the crazy guy in his underwear brandishing a hammer is somehow part of the January 6 conspiracy to overthrow Our Democracy, which proves that Stalinist show trials are not a waste of time:

Non-Democrats, rather than making fools of themselves by attempting to link the incident to a relatively minor (by BLM era standards) riot that occurred on the opposite side of the country nearly 2 years ago, will attribute it to the rampant mental health crisis, as well as to characteristic Democrat incompetence where the Speaker of the House’s security is concerned.

Moonbat Theater: AOC Arrested

For sheer phoniness, it seemed not even Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez could outdo the staged pose where she pretended an empty lot was full of illegal alien children so horrifically oppressed by Republicans that it reduced her to tears. But then she decided to get herself arrested:

Police arrested at least 17 House Democrats on Tuesday for blocking traffic outside the United States Supreme Court during a planned “civil disobedience” abortion protest.

The usual suspects included AOC:

The hands behind the back are so you will think she has been handcuffed. She blew it by raising her communist fist, but the MSM will have no problem finding the right stills to create the desired illusion.

Her posturing is in the context of demanding that the Supreme Court make a joke of the Constitution by imposing the killing of children on states where the voters do not want it.

If smugness could be converted to energy, the Democrat War on Oil would no longer be an issue, to judge by the look on her face:

This ditz really thinks she is Che Guevara, recast as a female the way Hollywood does remakes these days. Give her enough power and she would be no less a monster than Castro’s executioner.

Democrat State Senator Tiara Mack Twerks Upside Down

No matter how far they progress, progressives will progress further still. Did you think no one could be less suitable to hold power over us than the ballyhooed Future of the Democratic Party, cognitively challenged communist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez? Introducing Tiara Mack, the self-described “Queer Educator” and Rhode Island state senator who has been pushing what she calls “queer inclusive, pleasure-based sex ed” onto children:

Tiara Mack personifies her party not only culturally, but in terms of policy. She supports more taxes, more public housing, socialized medicine, cancellation of student debt, “diversifying” (i.e., purging of Caucasians) the teacher body, and “requiring a more comprehensive sex education.” She opposes the right to bear arms and election integrity.

No doubt Tiara Mack will be on the short list if Biden is around to select another Supreme Court justice.

It challenges the imagination to wonder how Democrats will find a representative who takes self-parody to a further extreme, yet somehow they will.

Already, the state of our ruling party draws gasps of horror from across the ocean:

Portraits in Moonbattery: Gigi Sohn

They say personnel is policy. With today’s Democrats in charge, personnel consists of militant kooks like Gigi Sohn. Biden’s handlers are trying to place her on the Federal Communications Commission.

The Wall Street Journal provides background:

She supports heavy-handed broadband regulation, including reimposing the Obama Title II “net-neutrality” rules. She wants to regulate broadband as Europe does, which would stifle investment. Some 92% of Americans have access to uber-high speed fixed broadband compared to 67% of Europeans.

If the American way works better, then let’s do it the European way — so long as that gives bureaucrats more power.

Sohn shrieks that Fox News is “dangerous to our democracy” because it deviates from Democrat doctrine. Free speech will not flourish with people like her in power.

A true party line moonbat, Sohn accuses Senate Republicans of suppressing the vote, presumably for opposing election fraud. She has earned the opposition of the Fraternal Order of Police with remarks like, “Funny how one bad protester labels the whole movement, but a few bad cops are never supposed to represent all cops.” In addition,

She’s liked posts by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that have called for defunding police and that have dismissed criticisms of the “defund” police movement as “racial resentment attacks.”

Her shrill, malevolent radicalism may have conjured an image of what Gigi Sohn might look like. Click here to see if you guessed right.

American decline began with Barack Obama’s election and went into a nosedive when Biden’s handlers took power. It will continue to accelerate if the federal government is not scaled back dramatically and purged of the sort of maniacs who would put Gigi Sohn in a position of power.

AOC Links Fossil Fuel Extraction to Murder of Minorities

Prominent Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has been hailed by the Chairman of the Democratic National Committee as the future of her party. She has forced Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer to go hard left for fear that she will primary him. Her ability to push the ruling party in the direction of her choice makes her one of the most powerful people in the country.

Most non-Democrats view her as a moron and a kook. She is worse. She is psychotic.

If you doubt it, watch the video below, in which she presents a new justification for the ongoing Democrat War on Energy that has been driving prices beyond a level we can afford. To quote:

“We have a crisis of missing and murdered indigenous and black women in the United States. Today I want to discuss part of this crisis that is all to often overlooked, but whose evidence shows that there is a very meaningful connection here: the correlation between fossil fuel extraction sites and abductions and murders of indigenous women across the United States.”

At least this explains why fossil fuels aren’t so bad so long as we buy them from enemies like Iran and Venezuela rather than extracting our own.

Don’t like shivering in the dark while Democrats pretend that wind turbines and solar panels can supply sufficient energy? You must hate indigenous women.

We are ruled by lunatics. They do not mean us well.

Pro-Abortion Ice Cream Truck

Nothing could top the depravity of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez praising Planned Parenthood for saving babies’ lives — but an ice cream truck that promotes killing children comes close:

This latest public relations effort has been described as “creepy and cringey,” which makes it very timely, considering that the current figurehead for leftism is Joe Biden.

Portraits in Democrat Leadership: Abby Broyles

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was yesterday’s Future of the Democratic Party. Time moves on. Now there is a new one — Abby Broyles:

A Valentine’s Day weekend sleepover party for tween girls that included watching the film Titanic turned bizarre and tearful after parents say Oklahoma 5th Congressional District candidate Abby Broyles allegedly became drunk and berated some of the children in attendance.

A friend of Broyles hosted the party. The eight girls were ages 12 and 13.

Broyles became intoxicated and spoke derogatorily to some of the girls. She allegedly called one girl an “acne f***er,” which prompted the girl to leave the room in tears. Broyles allegedly called another girl a “Hispanic f***er” and another a “judgy f***er.”

At one point, Broyles allegedly vomited into a laundry basket and onto one girl’s shoes.

Broyles initially denied that she was even there, and threatened NonDoc for reporting her behavior. However, there were so many witnesses, she switched to blaming alcohol and her medications.

At this point, the Democratic Party is ready for Abby Broyles. Oklahoma voters might not be though.

AOC Boasts of Giving Your Money to Illegal Aliens

They don’t just aid and abet a massive foreign invasion that will change this country forever, even distributing the invaders throughout the country so that they will be all the more impossible to dislodge. They actually pay them to invade — with our money. The Future of the Democratic Party boasts about it. Squeaks Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez:

“We fought tooth and nail for the inclusion of undocumented people in relief packages, stimulus checks, FEMA assistance, and we’ve actually helped huge amounts of undocumented families in our district get federal relief that many others were trying to lock them out of.”

Lest anyone imagine that giving away other people’s money is virtuous because it will supposedly relieve misery, ask yourself whether there will be more or less misery in the long run after America has been absorbed into the Third World, as it will be before Democrats are done looting it and displacing its population.

Thanks AOC, for confirming that Ted Cruz was right, and that Dick Durbin and the Ministry of Truth apparatchiks calling themselves “fact checkers” were wrong:

AOC Beclowns Herself in Florida

According to Democrat talking points, Florida is unsafe, because with Ron DeSantis as governor it has focused on protecting the vulnerable from Covid rather than indiscriminately crushing everyone with pointless repression like they do in liberal strongholds like New York. Speaking of New York, NRO reports on how a leftist congresscritter from NYC spends her vacation time:

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was spotted dining in Miami Beach, Fla., on Thursday, according to a tip received by National Review, on the same day that her native New York City reported a record number of Covid-19 cases.

Don’t be too hard on AOC. Others have headed for happier climes as trouble struck at home. Even Ted Cruz has done it:

Back in February, when Senator Ted Cruz (R., Texas) drew fire for taking a trip to Cancun, Mexico, during a winter disaster in Texas that left millions without power or water, Ocasio-Cortez joined the pile on. …

The congresswoman was still harping on the trip two months later, tweeting during a feud with the senator in April: “Ted, this is pretty rich coming from someone who fled their own home (and responsibilities) during an environmental crisis to cross the border and seek refuge in Mexico.”

Democrats take flagrant hypocrisy to an art form. When called out on it, they lash out, making even greater fools of themselves:

Any Republican willing to date AOC would indeed be a creepy weirdo.

AOC’s claim that her opponents find her attractive only made them laugh louder. She managed to make the guffaws stop by going after Ron DeSantis:

Not so funny. As Hot Air notes,

DeSantis was not on vacation. In fact, he was still posting a schedule of regular events. But he was indeed “missing” during the period AOC was referring to. And the reason was that he was accompanying his wife to the hospital for cancer treatments.

The Chairman of the Democratic National Committee calls this clueless commie the Future of the Party. Either the Democrats are in trouble, or the whole country is.

Biden Regime Identifies Root Cause of Skyrocketing Crime

The Biden Regime is more responsible than Future of the Democratic Party Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. It doesn’t pretend the skyrocketing crime that liberal policies have created doesn’t exist. Instead, it zeroes in on the “root cause.” This turns out to be the ChiCom virus.

Gerry Baker can hardly believe it:

Asked last week at a press briefing whether the pandemic was to blame for the surge in crime, as President Biden has suggested, the White House press secretary Jen Psaki declared that, yes, the virus is “a root cause in a lot of communities.”

There it is. That old progressive standby: the “root cause,” the all-encompassing absolution that simultaneously strips criminals of agency and Democratic politicians of responsibility for the consequences of their policies.

Readers may recall that after Biden opened the southern border and invited the entire Third World to invade and receive extravagant handouts, Kamala Harris was put in charge of dealing with the crisis. Rather than so much as visit the border, she identified the root causes (which included the global warming hoax and LGBTQ oppression) and did nothing more.

Duckspeak about root causes is worse than incongruous and absurd; it is a symptom of the terminal illness that is liberalism.

[T]his latest manifestation of the grip it has on our ruling class is a disturbing reminder of how far progressive ideology has propelled the country toward social disintegration. …

[T]his eagerness to find anyone to blame for crime other than the people committing it is a central feature of the nihilism eating away at the American identity—the idea that the country is so flawed that miscreants bear less responsibility for their actions than do the institutions that have supposedly oppressed them.

It is true that the criminals themselves are not the only ones to blame. Liberals who demonize and defund the police, apply bail reform and absurdly light sentences, and deify lowlife criminals and those who riot in their names share culpability.

Only a really committed progressive or an idiot—but I repeat myself—could believe it’s a good idea that men charged with committing violent crimes should go back out on the streets and reoffend until they take their savage ambitions to their logical and tragic conclusion.

Have liberals learned anything from the horror in Waukesha, inflicted by a maniac who in any sane country would have been behind bars? Not in Pueblo, Colorado they haven’t. Police Chief Chris Noeller complains that “in the case of thefts, a person can steal up to $1,999.00 of merchandise from [a] store or person and will not be taken to jail” due to moonbat policy.

This out-liberals even California, where thieves theoretically might get in trouble if they swipe more than $950 worth of merchandise at a time.

Unsurprisingly, auto theft is up 46% this year in Pueblo. Allow small crimes and you will get big crimes too. That’s why applying the broken windows theory cleaned up New York City and made it livable again under Giuliani.

However, that theory has been rejected in favor of wokeness. NYC has been returned to the dogs:

A homeless man charged with beating a guy last year was dumped back on the street thanks to so-called bail reform, only to allegedly pummel two women in Upper West Side attacks Thursday — and be freed again.

Darrell Johnson, 23, left one of his random female victims so brutally beaten that she suffered a “disfiguring laceration” to her face…

Last year, Johnson — who has more than a dozen arrests on his rap sheet dating to 2014, according to sources — was hit with assault and harassment charges in the man’s beatdown.

Johnson has been walking up to women on NYC sidewalks and beating them senseless. Since he is black, incarcerating him would be systemically racist, according to the ideology of our ruling class.

We are close to the point where leftism and America cannot coexist.

AOC Gaslights: What Smash & Grab Looting?

The happy news doesn’t stop. First, we hear from Biden that the supply chain crisis is no more serious than a shortage of Cabbage Patch dolls. Now the Future of the Democratic Party informs us that the tsunami of smash & grab looting, which has retailers so terrified that the stores on San Francisco’s Union Square have been boarded up for Christmas, actually does not exist:

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was slammed by Republicans and business leaders following an interview where she cast doubt on whether rampant smash-and-grabs are actually occurring.

“A lot of these allegations of organized retail theft are not actually panning out,” Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview with The Washington Times last week.

At the height of the Black Lives Matter riots, AOC told us that out of control crime in New York City was a matter of poverty-struck parents stealing bread for their hungry children. Progressives progress. Now the crime doesn’t even exist.

Walgreens, which has been forced to close stores due to the rampant looting, begs to differ:

“Organized retail crime is one of the top challenges facing” the company, Walgreens told The Washington Times, adding that the crime “has evolved beyond shoplifting and petty theft to the sale of stolen and counterfeit goods online.”

When theft is effectively legal thanks to Democrat rule, organized crime turns shoplifting into big business.

Indiana Republican Rep. Jim Banks said Ocasio-Cortez’s comments were “tone-deaf and offensive” to the family of Oakland security guard Kevin Nishita. The former San Jose police officer was shot and killed in November while defending a news crew reporting on a smash-and-grab crime.

AOC’s name isn’t long enough to convey the full heft of her pretentiousness. It should be extended to Alexandria Tone-Deaf and Offensive Ocasio-Cortez.

The Retail Industry Leaders Association also sounded off on this lame attempt at gaslighting by AT-DaOO-C:

“Respectfully, the Congresswoman has no idea what she is talking about. Both the data and stack of video evidence makes fairly clear that this is a growing problem in need of solutions,” Jason Brewer, RILA senior executive vice president of communications said in an email. “If she is not concerned with organized theft and increasingly violent attacks on retail employees, she should just say that.”

That’s what she did say, unless she actually expected someone to take her words at face value.

Even Gavin Newsom has acknowledged the smash & grab crime wave. He is trying shift the onus to local mayors, as if the entire Democrat establishment were not to blame for being light on punishment and heavy on glorification of looting (a.k.a. “mostly peaceful protesting”) and of scumbag criminals in whose name much looting has occurred.

“When society removes accountability for bad behavior, criminals get emboldened to commit more crimes, drug addicts thumb their noses at mandatory treatment and vandalism and petty theft turn into riotous looting and murder,” the president of the Los Angeles Police Protective League, Craig Lally, told Fox News last week.

Society didn’t remove accountability. The Democrat Party/liberal media axis of evil did.

Massive Invasion Force Approaches US Border

The Biden Regime has only just begun to fundamentally transform America by displacing the population:

Several thousand migrants from Haiti, South America, and Central America are making their way north to the southern border of the United States. …

Approximately 3,000 migrants marched in the southern Mexican city of Tapachula – about 10 miles from the Guatemala border.

This 3,000 is only the latest installment. The Third World has an infinite capacity to produce needy colonists to displace Americans.

We have plenty of time to prepare defenses against this approaching invasion force. But no effective preparations will be made, because they are coming on Biden’s invitation. Our approaching replacements are quite open about this:

There are reports that members of the caravan were carrying signs with President Joe Biden’s name on them, including one that read: “Joe Biden Is For All.”

As for Mexico’s defensive forces, these are rendered useless by the scale of the invasion.

The Mexican National Guard established a roadblock – fortified by some 400 law enforcement officers. Video shows the migrant caravan overwhelming the Mexican force and bulldozing the officers who were equipped with shields and anti-riot gear.

Watch civilization fall:

A single helicopter gunship could put a stop to this. Imagine the military response if these were Russian troops. To be invaded and temporarily occupied by a civilized country would be a blessing compared to the consequences of what is happening now. Imagine an America where every congressional district elects an Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Yet not a shot will be fired in the USA’s defense as the traitors comprising the Democratic Party bring The Camp of the Saints to life.
