Has Alexandria Ocassional-Cortex been beaten to submission by Pelosi?

American Thinker: Did someone explain to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez the kind of vengeance a Speaker of the House can exact on a rebellious freshman Representative? Or has a brand new behavioral pattern entered her personal repertoire – carefully weighing alternatives and settling for the one that isn’t perfect, but merely better than the other choices, aka, “practicality”?

I don’t know the answer, but clearly something happened between leading protesters with a bullhorn outside Pelosi’s office and going on MSNBC Monday:

Ocasio-Cortez all but dismissed a group of 16 House Democrats who say they’ll vote against Pelosi on the House floor, and said most on that list would be more conservative than Pelosi.

“If anything, I think that what it does is that it creates a window where we could potentially get more conservative leadership,” Ocasio-Cortez told MSNBC on Monday night. “When you actually look at the signatories, it is not necessarily reflective of the diversity of the party.”

“We have about 16 signatories,” she added. “Fourteen of them are male, there are very few people of color in the caucus, there’s very few ideological diversity. It’s not like there are progressives that are signing on, it’s not like you have a broad-based coalition.”

That last swipe, using identity politics against the Pelosi rebels, sets her up as a useful minority ally of Pelosi, willing to employ the weapon Pelosi can’t wield as an elderly white woman.  more here

  1. So she is guilty of both racism (hatred of people of people of Non-Color) and misandry (hatred of males). When will these wrongs be noted and brought forth against her as a representative of the public in the US House?
