LURCHING LEFT: Democrats Retake the House, Push Massive Government Programs

posted by Hannity Staff - 1.03.19

The Democratic Party officially took control of the House of Representatives Thursday; vowing to push a progressive agenda featuring new government programs including Medicare for All, free college tuition, a ‘Green New Deal’ and more.

“The growing socialist wing of the Democratic Party will flex its muscle Thursday with the seating of the new Congress, as more self-described Democratic Socialists join the ranks and dozens of sitting and incoming members – including likely 2020 hopefuls – embrace a massive government expansion that would make FDR look like a penny pincher,” writes Fox News.

The new entitlement programs are largely symbolic, as any new legislation would need to pass a Republican-controlled Senate and be signed into law by President Trump.

The push is widely seen as setting-the-stage for the Democratic Party platform heading into the 2020 presidential election.

LIBERAL LOGIC: Cortez Compares Her ‘Green New Deal’ with LUNAR LANDING, ‘Civil Rights Movement’

posted by Hannity Staff - 12.05.18

Incoming Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez doubled-down on her previous comments regarding the lunar landing this week; comparing her ‘Green New Deal’ proposal with the “moon shot” and the Civil Rights Movement.

Cortez was speaking with supporters when she -yet again- equated her drastic climate change program with some of the United States’ greatest accomplishments.

“This is going to be the great society, the moon shot, the Civil Right Movement of our generation. That is the scale,” said Cortez.

“It’s unsurprising that the response to any bold proposal that we have is to incite fear… The only way we are going to get out of this situation is by choosing to be courageous,” she added.

Watch Cortez’ comments above.
