A pair of billboards have cropped up in New York City mocking Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for claiming she’s “the boss.”
The Democrat socialist gave herself the title at a “Girls Who Code” event in NYC last month, a response to critics of her wildly imaginative and thoroughly unrealistic Green New Deal.
“So people are like, ‘Oh it’s unrealistic. Oh it’s vague. Oh it doesn’t address this little minute thing,'” she ranted. “And I’m like, ‘You try. You do it. ‘Cause you’re not. ‘Cause you’re not. So, until you do it, I’m the boss.’ How about that?”
Boss? We Think Not
A pro-business group, sensing success with their other billboards designed to agitate Ocasio-Cortez, unveiled two new efforts taking a shot at her new title.
“Hey AOC, you’re the ‘boss’?” one of the billboards asks.
Another just below it declares, “WE DON’T THINK SO. The American PEOPLE are the boss.”

Included on the billboard is a link to a website which trashes the Green New Deal – Ocasio-Cortez’s policy pride and joy – calling it simply but accurately, “a very bad idea.”
“This so-called deal reads like a socialist wish list,” the site reads. “It proposes eliminating air travel, nuclear energy, and ‘farting cows’; replacing every building in the U.S. with a ‘green’ alternative, and providing ‘economic security’ for ‘all who are unable or unwilling to work’ – among other measures.”
Several 2020 Democratic presidential contenders are backing the plan, having clearly not read it, despite its staggering projected cost of $93 trillion.

The group behind these billboards have been taunting Ocasio-Cortez for some time now, first gaining notoriety when they blasted her for driving Amazon out of New York City, a job-killing move that even her colleagues were disgusted with.

Ocasio-Cortez was offended, responding that, “Billionaires paying to put up anti-progressive propaganda in Times Square is like the obscenely rich version of the scene where Michael Scott points to the Bubba Gump and saying ‘This is it, this is the heart of civilization, right here.'”
The group then followed that up with a billboard that targeted the Green New Deal for the first time.
“Hey AOC, the Green New Deal Stinks,” that sign read, with another adding, “Maybe it’s those farting cows? LOL.”
Let’s hope the group placing these billboards keeps them coming. They’ll never run out of material as long as AOC is in office.

It is necessary to force a state/nation into financial stress in order to convince people that socialism, rather than capitalism, is the answer to their needs. Forcing out job sources is one sure way to institute this kind of financial stress, so that is what is going on with AOC and Amazon.
Every Democrat presidential wannabe must be asked: What is your succinct opinion of the Omar-Tlaib-AOC troika. Then watch ‘em squirm!

nothing but another crooked killary, hopefully she drops and gets run over by a bus, along with the two Jewish haters.

I think you should have an AOC story every day. She’s just not getting enough publicity lately.
This Case-o Kotex woman is one obtuse absolutely idiotic piece of humanity. Big mouth. Bigger bugger eyeballs. Miniscule pea brain….

The new ID from DMV is a must and each ID must be verified as a Citizen n total count per county/City/ State must be tallied b4 d election x No Tally – No Votes will be Counted -plain n simple x And definitely Electoral College
What? Really? Voter fraud? Democrats have told us over and over that there is no such thing as voter fraud. Right? Yeah, sure, that is why the win in every state that DOESN’T have a voter ID law with a picture ID requirement.

Speaking of what the folks of NYC desire, isn’t DeBlasio on his second term? He’s not exactly the epitome of conservatism. Me thinks a bit of voter fraud might be happening in the “big apple”.
I cannot think of a city n the world that epitomizes capitalism more than NYC. Alessandra was elected with a total of 110.000 votes – that number represents a whopping 16% of the district that elected her and ONLY 1.3% of the population of NYC. I don’t think what she even understands what she is up against. I know a lot of New Yorkers and when I ask them what makes NYC so great – they pretty much tell you the same thing – “You can get whatever you want whenever you want it 24/7 in NYC.” I really believe that New Yorkers like it that way and are not the type of people who are going to stand in long lines all day waiting for some government cheese.

Congress should tie a can to her tail; put a few rocks in the can, and send her packing back to NYC where she is apparently appreciated? Send the other two pack rats along with her.
