Who’s Been Financially Backing Ocasio-Cortez? The Answer May (Not) Surprise You


I’m surprised no one figured this out earlier.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the 28-year-old Congressional candidate who has been taking the media by storm (and providing the right-wing media with ample comedic material with her frequent demonstrations of just how uninformed, ignorant, and immature she is), rose to stardom almost overnight after upsetting prominent Democrat NY Rep. Joseph Crowley in the primary race.
Everyone was stunned that such a little-known candidate with so little experience and no name recognition could actually win the nomination. Clearly, it was an incredible victory for a small, grassroots campaign, by the people, and for the people.

…Or was it?
I’ve got three words for you: follow the money.
In progressive politics, all roads lead back to, you guessed it, George Soros.
Researcher Richard Weinstein, curious about Ocasio-Cortez’s dubiously rapid rise to fame, appears to have been the first to discover this trail. First, he uncovered Ocasio-Cortez’s association with a group called “Brand New Congress.” Back in 2017, her website belonged to this group.
He explained his findings in a series of tweets:
For a few weeks I’ve been wondering about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and just how she emerged as a politico. Her path to Washington is shocking, at the very least. My first question was: What were her campaign positions BEFORE she became a national figure?

So I went to her campaign website and took that web address and looked through the internet archive. When I went back to 2017, it was not her website, it belonged to the group "Brand New Congress."

Here's what the same web address looked like in late 2017:

So what is “Brand New Congress”, exactly? It appears to be a group of Bernie staffers dedicated to, well, a “brand new Congress” full of Sanders-style far-left progressives. Like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
What's “Brand New Congress?” BNC is a group of Bernie Sanders staffers who got together, decided to make the 2018 midterms all about Bernie policies by taking his ideas & finding 400 Bernie carbon copies to dump into Congressional & other races, creating a 400 headed Bernie.

Watch Rachel Maddow explain and discuss with the co-founder of Brand New Congress, Saikat Chakrabarti.

There’s even a policy page which all potential candidates must sign on to:
Here’s the official current policy page that ALL of their candidates have signed onto: https://t.co/cdM9lLtmgl

Looking at the Brand New Congress founder, Saikat Chakrabarti, it appears he is also the executive director of “Justice Democrats”, an affiliated PAC which was co-founded by none other than Cenk Uygur, the radically progressive host of “The Young Turks.”

Aaaand this is where we find George Soros, whose Media Consortium is what Weinstein calls the “deep pockets” behind the Young Turks and their political endeavors.

“There is no such thing as a grassroots campaign,” says Glenn Beck, who spoke with Weinstein on his television show this week. “The story is that she went out and knocked on doors — which I believe she did, she worked hard for it — but she also has, apparently, funding and support from very Leftist organizations, including George Soros.”
Don’t they all?

DC Statehood Incoming: House Set to Vote Within Days
Biden and his team are wasting no time setting up ways to stack the electoral deck in their favor.


Joe Biden and his cohorts in the Democratic Party are doing everything in their power to never lose another election again, and they are doing so with all the subtlety and grace of a three-legged hyena that stepped into a yellow-jacket nest. First and foremost, there are their recently-revealed plans to pack the Supreme Court with several new justices during Joe Biden’s first term. Now they’re looking to make good on their long-held pipe dream of making Washington DC its own state…and they are wasting no time. The House of Representatives will vote Tuesday on whether to make Washington, D.C., a State. The House Oversight Committee, chaired by Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-NY), voted the bill, H.R. 51, out of committee by a vote of 25-19 to create D.C. statehood Wednesday. But there are likely constitutional issues at play here. The ultimate argument seems to be whether the 23rd Amendment guarantees the federal Capitol at least three electors in presidential elections, Rep. Any Biggs (R-AZ) suggested Wednesday. Biggs’ view is supported by legal scholars, who opposed D.C. statehood’s feasibility without a Constitutional amendment to the 23rd Amendment. The Office of Legal Counsel in 2007 believed it was unconstitutional, the Justice Department under former President Reagan and former President Carter stated the transformation was unconstitutional, and so did Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, when he sat on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. The move is highly controversial, and twenty-two state attorney generals have already sent a stern letter warning President Joe Biden about the danger of moving forward.

Dems Begin Assault on 2A with Bill to Confiscate Suppressors
Here comes the heat from the left.


When it comes to the right to bear arms, there truly is no foreseeable future in which the Constitutional guarantee will disappear entirely. It’s a logical fallacy to suggest otherwise…just look at how well outlawing guns went in Chicago starting back in 1982. There will likely never be a full repeal of the right, either, as the idea of disarming the American people, particularly as Russia and China grow ever bolder in their international devilishness, leaves the world’s greatest nation feeling like sitting ducks. So, instead of working toward a total nullification of the inalienable right, the Democrats simply work to make if more difficult, more annoying, and more expensive to own the sort of firearms equipment that they want. This year will be no exception. Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) introduced legislation on Wednesday to ban the sale and possession of firearm suppressors. His legislation, the Help Empower Americans to Respond (HEAR) Act, is co-sponsored by Sens. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), and Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), among others. It would ban the importation, sale, manufacture, transfer, and possession of firearm suppressors. Menendez commented on the legislation, saying: Gun silencers are dangerous devices with one purpose and one purpose only – to muffle the sound of gunfire from unsuspecting victims. The sound of gunshots is what signals you to run, hide, take cover, call the police and help others save themselves; however, this is nearly impossible when a gun silencer is used. That is why we must pass the HEAR Act, commonsense legislation that will prevent armed assailants from using these deadly devices to make it easier to shoot and kill another person. Of course, there was no definitive plan as to how confiscation would work, or what the left believes an acceptable amount of casualties would be for…
