AOC Goes Off on Democrat Leadership for Supporting Rep. Cuellar

I have never had a problem with any member of Congress, Democrat or Republican, as long as they represent the will of their constituents.

Sadly, far too many of them are more worried about grabbing headlines than doing their jobs, and Rep. Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) is at the top of that list.

Rep. Cuellar (D-TX) lives at the border, and for his constituents, illegal immigration is a major concern, so it is his concern.

After House leadership on the left side of the aisle supported him in his primary against a progressive, AOC just about lost her mind.

Utter Failure

Progressives dumped a ton of money into the campaign of Jessica Cisneros and it was a battle right down to the wire.

With 99 percent of the vote counted, Cuellar held a 177-vote lead, already having declared victory.

Cisneros has not yet conceded, and this may come down to a recount, but Cuellar appears to have taken the election for now.

Were it not for people from out-of-state dumping money into her campaign, I have little doubt Cuellar would have easily won this primary.

While I would love to see outside money blocked in state elections, that is not the way it works now, so people outside the state often have far more say than people in the state.

To that point, AOC is having a fit that Cuellar got the support he did from leadership…

If the results hold and Cuellar does win the primary, it is a virtual no-brainer that he will win the general election.

All Republican voters combined were less than either Cuellar or Cisneros had, so this seat is likely to remain blue.

We can only be thankful that the person holding it is likely to be a legal immigration advocate and not support Joe Biden’s radical plan to allow everyone over the border that wants to come with no limits.

GOP CHAIR TWEETS

A week ago, Joe Biden told Americans that prices aren’t actually high.

But the numbers don’t lie.

Inflation is up 14.4% since Biden took office.

And all the president can offer are more lies.

Inflation ⬆️ more than expected.

Overall CPI: +6.4% y/y
Fuel Oil: +27.7%
Electricity: +11.9%
Groceries: +11.3%
Chicken +10.5%
Milk: +11%
Eggs: +70.1%
Bread: +14.9%
Potatoes: +12.4%
Baby Food: +10%
Airline Fares: +25.6%
Real Average Hourly Earnings: -1.8%

Year-over-year real wages have been negative for 22 months - ever since Biden forced through his $1.9 trillion "stimulus."

That's a wages recession for American workers.
