Ocasio-Cortez Threatens to Put Dems Who Vote With Republicans On a “Listâ€
Posted at 9:02 am on March 1, 2019 by Brandon Morse
She’s making a list, and checking it twice.
Apparently, Rep. Alexandria (The Boss) Ocasio-Cortez of New York is going make sure Democrats never reach across the aisle to help Republicans with anything by threatening to put them on a “list†should they do so.
According to the Washington Post, this “list†will be handed to leftist activists, who will then work to primary whoever is on it:
But Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), the unquestioned media superstar of the freshman class, upped the ante, admonishing the moderates and indicating she would help liberal activists unseat them in the 2020 election.
Corbin Trent, a spokesman for Ocasio-Cortez, said she told her colleagues that Democrats who side with Republicans “are putting themselves on a list.â€
“She said that when activists ask her why she had to vote for a gun safety bill that also further empowers an agency that forcibly injects kids with psychotropic drugs, they’re going to want a list of names and she’s going to give it to them,†Trent said, referring to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) threatened her moderate colleagues during a Thursday Democratic caucus meeting, telling the lawmakers she plans to provide progressive activists searching for primary targets with a list of Democrats who work across the aisle.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi began the meeting by chastising the two dozen moderates who voted on Tuesday in favor of a Republican amendment to a gun control bill that requires gun retailers to report illegal immigrants who attempt to buy a gun.

She's a good little fascist.

AOC appears to be the new voice of reason within the Democrat party.
Rather than hiding behind a facade, she tells what she thinks.
In some respects, she deserves more respect than the RINOs within the GOP.

She would have fit in quite nicely in the Soviet Union, where people were always ratting each other out. To the gulag with you!

If there was a 'list' of Republicans who vote with Democrats (or a list of Republicans who ARE Democrats) that list would be quite long indeed.
