Busted? There Are Some Fishy Things About The Upbringing Of This Far Left Ocasio-Cortez Wannabe Candidate
Matt Vespa

The race for New York’s 18th Senate district has been interesting. Far left candidate Julia Salazar is trying to position herself to pull off an upset against the Democratic establishment, like the one her colleague Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez executed in her congressional challenge to incumbent Democrat Joe Crowley. Yet, there have been allegations that she hasn’t been straightforward with her upbringing. What appears to have been the selling line was that she’s Jewish, working class, and immigrated here when she was a baby from Colombia. Well, it looks like she was from a well-to-do family, born in Miami, and was a pro-life, pro-Israel supporter who appeared on Glenn Beck’s program representing Christians United for Israel. Oh yeah, and her family is Catholic. Multiple outlets, left and right leaning, have reported on this woman that has made a local New York State Senate race somewhat interesting. Tablet made light of her political evolution from conservative to far left democratic socialist in a lengthy article back in August:

    Social media postings, various articles, and the recollections of people who knew her at Columbia University show that in her early 20s Salazar was a right-wing pro-Israel Christian. In 2012 and into 2013, she was the president of Columbia Right to Life, the campus’s leading anti-abortion group. It was a position she took seriously. In October of 2012, Salazar hailed the university’s decision to end a supplemental program funded through student fees that paid for abortions, while also decrying that students were never informed that they were underwriting abortions through these fees. When a version of the fund was re-introduced, Salazar wrote an April 2013 op-ed in the Columbia Spectator wondering why there wasn’t similar help for students who decided not to terminate their pregnancies: “It is unacceptable for the University to provide support for students who have abortions while simultaneously failing to provide resources to accommodate those who keep their baby … we appear to imply that a ‘pro-life’ pregnant woman does not deserve the same rights as the woman who chooses to abort.”

Maybe the ol' Julia wasn't too bad. Not pressing info but she appears to be another to know about.

The article goes on to say she was even on the Glenn Beck show for 'Christians United for Israel' student advocacy group.
