Mouthbreathers who can type have been going nuts that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was actually elected to Congress that they’ve frantically been trying to denigrate and discredit her in a dishonest mis-information campaign.  First it was being outraged that she wore a designer outfit for a fashion magazine shoot.  Then they mocked her clothing after she was elected.  Then it was the innocent dance video shot of her and friends back when she was an undergrad at Boston college.  Now it’s this:

This photo, not of Ocasio-Cortez’s feet, was posted by Tucker Carlson’s manure merchant, Daily Caller, with the headline, “Here’s the Photo Some People Described as a Nude Selfie of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.”  That’s right, Tucker Carlson’s propaganda machine actually posted a photo of some woman’s feet in a bathtub, with the “some people” claim for the single goal of smearing a member of Congress because they don’t like her politics.

What’s disgusting is that these smears speed around the internet without the slightest concern for accuracy or common decency.  What’s really offensive?  The above photo or a college video is “shocking” and “inappropriate”, but the photo below is Okey-Dokey.

The noise machine has zero interest in accuracy, honesty, or common decency.  It’s all about winning, facts be damned.  At the same time the blindness with which these same people treat the Trumps is jaw dropping.

Joe Crowley, 10 term congressman from New York and chair of the House Democratic Caucus, was defeated tonight by a 28 year old Latina running in her first political race.  Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who was outspent 10 to 1 by Crowley, ran a social media based

campaign, focused on social justice and equality.  Crowley had been dismissive of Ocasio-Cortez, even no-showing TWO primary debates.  Once angling to be Nancy Pelosi’s replacement and future candidate for speaker, Crowley now gets to go home with his tail between his legs after being pummeled by this young woman. Who is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America.  And an activist.  And tough.  She ran way to the left of Crowley calling for the abolishment of ICE, universal healthcare, and a federal jobs guarantee.  Crowley made a huge mistake by not taking her seriously.

Yes, this is a heavily Democratic district.  A Dem is going to win the general election, but this should be a wake up call to the Democratic establishment.  After the shenanigans of the 2016 presidential campaign and the establishment’s continued tone deafness to income inequality, destruction of labor unions, and stagnation of wages, voters have had enough.  The message is clear – Lead, or get the hell out of the way.  We have a young generation coming behind us who have rejected the party machine and it’s calcified leadership.

Thank God.
