Far-left Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez fired a warning shot at her moderate Democrat colleagues this week; telling them America is “more than a handful of suburbs” over centrist fears of the massive new infrastructure package.
“If mods want to blow up the infra deal, that’s on them. I know this is tough for some to understand, but the US is more than a handful of suburbs- communities outside them aren’t disposable. And just bc something is ‘bipartisan’ doesn’t mean it’s good. Look at Wall St bailouts,” posted AOC on Twitter.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer unveiled the Democrats’ massive $3.5 trillion budget framework that provides new funds for fighting climate change, infrastructure, and expanding entitlement programs.
“When we took the majority in the Senate earlier this year, the American people entrusted us with a great responsibility: to make their lives better,” Schumer wrote in a letter to fellow Democrats. “I am happy to report that we are making great progress towards that goal.”

Schumer’s goal is for the Democrat-led committees to allocate money to specific targets by September 15th.
The proposal includes:
- $726 Billion for Health, Labor, and Education Committee
- $107 Billion for the Judiciary Committee
- $135 Billion for the Committee on Agriculture Nutrition and Forestry
- $332 Billion for the Banking Committee
- $198 Billion for the Energy and Natural Resources Committee
“If our colleagues want to ram through yet another reckless tax and spending spree without our input, if they want all this spending and debt to be their signature legacy, they should leap at the chance to own every bit of it,” McConnell said in a speech on the Senate floor. “So let me make something perfectly clear: If they don’t need or want our input, they won’t get our help with the debt limit increase that these reckless plans will require.”

Ocasio-Cortez ripped the White House’s use of a standard labor index this week; saying ‘Human Capital Stock’ is “an ugly term with an ugly history.”
“Human Capital Stock. An ugly term w ugly history, but for many powerful ppl it‘s their most honest view of workers: human stock. By their logic, the moment a person stops being useful to profit motive (retirement, health, etc) they are a liability. That’s the system we live in,” posted AOC on social media.
