"No more black faces that don't want to be a black voice". Oh my! OcraZio Cortez and her "justice caucus" are wreaking havoc on the DNC establishment. The "justice caucus" communista's didn't even pause to lick their wounds after the tongue lashing they got for labeling Pelosi a racist. Sure, the CBC ain't exactly what it's been billed as, but what DNC faction doesn't disingenuously pander? OcraZio would like to portray that demo-commie feminista's will do a better job of representing the black community ... but will she, and they really? OcraZio is "championing" all things hispanic immigration. There isn't an illegal immigrant entitlement she doesn't like, and not a single illegal immigration obstacle she does like. Pelosi & the CBC don't seem to recognize AOC's revolt for what it is. A power grab that's going to unseat the old gaurd, and marginalize black voters and ivory tower elitists. Can Pelosi hang onto her majority in 2020 with this level of animosity between DNC blocs?
The CBC has already indicated that in retaliation they are probably going to primary A.O.C. -- who is NOT popular in her district -- and that of the rest of the freshman class of leftist radical Representatives. My money is on the longer established Congressional Black Caucus. If they DO carry out their retaliatory threat then AOC and her fellow radicals will mostly all be one hit wonders. In addition one notes that our leftists are staying the hell away from commenting on this glorious infighting activity between the young leftist radicals and the DNC establishment liberals in control of the House of Representatives. Infighting? What infighting . . . that seems to be their collective non-response . . . response. Sweet!
Jestsayin, do remember the 2007-2008 housing meltdown? Rememer how the government got together and decided to bail all those banks/insurance companies out? THAT was socialism. Now, do you also recall how the poor and working class people who couldn't pay their mortgages lost their homes? THAT was capitalism. See the difference? The rich get to enjoy socialism. The rest of us get stuck with capitalism.
I just hope this round of Democrats eating their own is a long and drawn out event, at least until convention next year. I don't think the old guard really gets it, the young left is AOC and her hater clique, there is no middle ground, and the only one who might have been able to mediate is Chief Three Tipi's the socialist sellout. The DNC is actually in trouble, the fissures are real and they run deep, and the solution isn't really apparent. I can see a lot of laughter in my near future...
Actually, that wasn't the case. The government loaned money to banks and the vast majority of the banks repaid the government in full plus interest. This was after the government stood on the necks of banks forcing them to make risky loans to people with no credit. All in the interest of "diversity and fairness" People that took out mortgages that never had a chance of paying them back is called dumb. We can get into Barney Franks Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac debacle if you want to start a new thread. Just in case,
Actually, that WAS the case. Why were the banks and insurance companies able to get money to stay in business (even if they did pay it back), when private citizens were not given the ability to refinance their loans and keep their homes? There was a double standard going on. Socialism for the rich. Capitalism for the poor.
I think the "Squad" actually thinks they're more powerful than the speaker based on Twitter. They amuse me. I'm glad this is becoming the face of the Democratic Party.
Like I said, if you want to start a thread on the mortgage crisis, start a thread, or save some time and watch the video.
