Controversial Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez left some users on social media stunned Thursday afternoon; bizarrely labeling her ‘Green New Deal’ a “non-binding resolution of values” that will cost the country “$0.”
“If only there were some public fund billionaires could pay into along with everyone else that helps fund our infrastructure, hospitals, and public systems all at once. It could even be a modest % of what they earn every year. We could have an agency collect it and everything,” posted AOC on social media.

Hey there! Totally get it if you’ve never bothered to read the legislation you’re commenting so authoritatively on.
The Green New Deal is a non-binding resolution of values. It does not have a price tag or CBO score and costs us $0 if passed.

Ocasio-Cortez bizarrely called-out “home-owners” on social media Wednesday; saying Coronavirus relief efforts should not “squeeze” people can’t afford to own land.
“It makes no sense that we are squeezing people that already cannot afford to purchase their own home for more money than a person who already owns land and is a land-owning member or a home-owning member of our economy,” said a video posted by the Congresswoman on Twitter.

AOC on VIRUS: Senate’s Bipartisan Coronavirus Relief Bill ‘Shameful!’… Nothing but ‘Crumbs’
Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez doubled-down on her fierce opposition to the Senate’s bipartisan Coronavirus relief package Friday; calling the legislation “shameful” and “crumbs” for American families.
