  1. I often think that she must be playing dumb so that we all under-estimate her. Having been the youngest woman ever elected to congress tells me that if she is playing a long game, she could one day be in a position of great power. But on the other hand…

  2. Reminds me of when the Post Office decided to burn several millions of dollars worth of stamps, the local news cried about how that money could have gone to homeless relief. They are all clueless.

  3. You can be more than assured that she did buy a sheet of paper from Boston College on their discount rate. Attend no classes, do no homework, learn nothing plan.

  4. Idiot.
    The very last thing we need to do is forgive student debt.
    Make the colleges consignees and stick them with the bill, maybe they won’t have money to pay fake Indians 400K to teach one class a year

  5. Green New Deal,,,
    No one ever gave a S’ about the old one.
    Maybe Nancy could adopt this one for a future forfeiture offer deal to get the funding back as proof why abortion is sometimes needed to Planned Parenthood.

  8. She’d really lose her mind if someone told her the fed not only “gave” the money to the stock market, but also invested it and plans on selling it when the market bounces back for a cool $10 Trillion PROFIT.
