Giving a response to President Trump’s Oval Office address calling for congressional leaders to fund the construction of a ‘big, beautiful’ wall on the southern border, freshman Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez seemed to assert that illegal migrants seeking to cross the U.S border were more American that the patriots seeking to secure the nation’s borders.

“The women and children on that border that are trying to seek refuge and seek opportunity in the United States of America with nothing but the shirts on their back are acting more American than any person who seeks to keep them out ever will be.”
The claim comes as surprising news to the hundreds of millions of American citizens opposed to illegal immigration. Apparently it isn’t citizenship in the constitutional republic that makes one an American, but rather trying to breach the borders of the United States while only owning one shirt.

Cortez went on to claim that President Donald Trump has a “proven track record of discrimination against anyone who’s non-white,” throughout his life previous to the Presidency.

On the same segment with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, Ocasio-Cortez also objected to the funding of Immigration and Customs Enforcement during the government shutdown-despite voting to fund the agency in an earlier congressional vote.

Conservatives and patriots should genuinely consider opposing Ocasio-Cortez on the basis of these sorts of twisted statements- ascribing American nationality to illegal immigration itself- rather than being distracted by dancing videos and high school nicknames.

That dig wasn't necessary and you know good and well not supporting illegal alien supporting open border Republicans does not equate to supporting the same thing in a Democrat. Why you persist in making such off the wall comments is beyond me.

You need to get your head out of that self-righteous hole you keep it in, look around and see what you have done to our country.

Yes, that is right! No illegal aliens should be counted for electoral or representation purposes.

How's that possible, I didn't vote on a single Democrat?

As you should know full well, there are many ways to elect DemoQuacks without voting for them yourself.

Transparency and truth can be a hard task master, especially when it doesn't fit into ones personal agenda. :lol:

Hmmm .... "transparency and truth" are DemoQuack Howls.

This registered Republican voter happens to fully support transparency and truth in government .... as all Americans should.

That's why you've never gotten anything accomplished. I've never known too many Republicans who ever got anything accomplished showing their hands before they played them or parroting the opposition's version of the "truth".

You on the other-hand, love that stuff, you thrive on it, you eat it up quicker than a dog on a dropped ice cream cone.

As I said ..... "This registered Republican voter happens to fully support transparency and truth in government .... as all Americans should."

Well, of course you do, that's why you always ... lose.

Huh, what have I lost. You don't even make sense. Jabbering just to hear ourselves jabber or taking personal digs at each other is a waste of both of our time. Stay on topic and stop with the personal insults.

Reading this thread I forgot what the original topic was. Please remember the opposition also reads our forum. This would be very entertaining for them. Perhaps this thread will have to be locked. Also, please keep in mind we are united here for a common purpose.

I was referring to our issues here, illegal immigration, excess immigration, trade, et al.

Sure Jean. I'll go back to ignoring.

I agree. Hopefully you took note of who the party was that was making the insulting remarks. Thanks, Jean.

Noted. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Politico: Some House Dems upset with Ocasio-Cortez

Washington (CNN) Some House Democrats have been unhappy with progressive Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's resistance to falling in line with her fellow party members, particularly her threats to support primary challenges against incumbents, Politico reported Friday.

Lawmakers have been quietly criticizing the New York newcomer and are hoping to rein in her criticism of those in her own party, Politico reported, citing nearly 20 lawmakers and aides. The report described lawmakers as fearful of Ocasio-Cortez's ability to swing progressives against more establishment Democrats and anxious to utilize her influence to unite the party.

They point to her hiring of two former organizers from the progressive group Justice Democrats, which helped get her elected, and a November conference call in which she urged, "all Americans know money in politics is a huge problem, but unfortunately the way that we fix it is by demanding that our incumbents give it up or by running fierce campaigns ourselves."

Through her staff, Ocasio-Cortez declined to comment to Politico. But after the story published, she responding to the report on Twitter Friday, writing, "To quote Alan Moore: 'None of you understand. I'm not locked up in here with YOU. You're locked up in here with ME.'"

Democratic leaders were also frustrated that Ocasio-Cortez criticized their new set of House rules on Twitter in the first week of the new Congress, Politico reported. Ocasio-Cortez shared with her more than 2 million Twitter followers that she'd vote against a Democratic rules package.

House Democrats were also annoyed that Ocasio-Cortez sought a seat on the powerful Ways and Means Committee -- on which veteran lawmakers typically serve -- with a grassroots campaign to pressure Speaker Nancy Pelosi to add her to the panel, Politico reported, adding that Ocasio-Cortez's office denied being behind the effort.

Recently Ocasio-Cortez told Politico that she wasn't interested in backing progressive candidates against incumbent Democrats, insisting that she's "focused on my job."

Her chief of staff also fired back at House Democratic lawmakers who spoke to Politico about Ocasio-Cortez.

"The Democratic Party and the King of England have surprisingly similar reactions to democracy when their own power is threatened," he posted on Twitter Friday.

Some lawmakers are trying to convince Ocasio-Cortez to use her influence to unite Democrats, while others have warned her that she's headed for a lonely tenure in Congress if she treats her more moderate colleagues as enemies, the report said.

Democratic Rep. Nydia Velázquez of New York has been a bridge between the Democratic caucus and Ocasio-Cortez, counseling the freshman congresswoman in private conversations against targeting her fellow Democrats, according to Politico.

Velázquez told Politico that the two shared a "long, long conversation" about the dynamics of Congress and Washington, and how there shouldn't be a "litmus test" for each district, and advised Ocasio-Cortez to think twice before backing primary challenges against her colleagues.
