Alexandrio Ocasio-Cortez and the Ethics Game

quote [ Educating everyone about what the 'bad guys' can legally do. ]

It's only 5 minutes long but it drives the point home quite succinctly.

"Right-wing trolls are sharing a hoax version of the Green New Deal". Much like their role model, they seem to favor degrading the target of their obsession with urine.

This is literally what a representative democracy is suppose to avoid. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I like her moxy. But then, I've liked politicians before.

There's a degree of superficiality to politicians, where oftentimes they can be a lot of flash, but nothing comes of it.

I suppose I look forward to the progress she makes, even if it means a legacy of copycats following her lead in challenging the old and stale practices of rich people.

And I definitely appreciate any progress towards having discourse that can move beyond bipartisanship. If I could be any less impressed by the braindead back-and-forth I see these days; my only consolation is that my expectations can't get any lower.

Most people don’t know that lobbyists write questions for members of congress to ask witnesses (like the people being questioned in the video), then submit those exchanges as comments on regulation or otherwise use them for whatever they're doing.

Since Ocasio-Cortez isn’t backed by corporations, she is able to ask the real questions. She’s doing this to be transparent so people know the inner workings of government. It’s practically a free civics lesson.

You’ve got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the land.

I just saw her last night for the first time on PBS, and she only spoke for about 30 seconds, but I was impressed by her. She speaks clearly, methodically and forcefully. She reminds me of the first time I heard Obama speak, but in hindsight, Obama's passion, intelligence and master-level oratory powers weren't enough. It will be interesting to see how AOC develops and whether the party has enough sense to support her.
