Rush Limbaugh is fond of saying that the reason the media cannot destroy Trump’s relationship with his supporters is primarily because the media did not CREATE the relationship between them. Trump’s so-called “base” believe in Trump’s agenda because they believe in him – not because Morning Schmoe had him on MSNBC. (I really believe that Schmoe and Spouse thought that once Donald Trump was elected, they were going to somehow be the new media power couple best friends of POTUS and FLOTUS and were quite surprised to find out the President can spot a loser and a phony from about 10 miles out. Hence, Schmoe now seeks to destroy what he thinks he created. Unfortunately, all he’s really accomplished is to evidence that he’s starting to resemble that porch kid from “Deliverance” more than just physically at this point.)
The same, however, cannot be said of one Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the media sensation with the hyperthyroid eyes and donkey snout. Much was made of her stunning defeat of old-school incumbent Joseph Crowley in the NY-14 primary, treating it as masterful politicking and brilliant campaign strategy. Except, no, not really. Consider some facts. Each Congressional district essentially represents 711,000 people. In NY-14, there are approximately 245,000 registered Democrats, in a district that is almost all either White or Hispanic. However, in the PRIMARY, only 10% of those voters turned out. Cortez got 16,898 votes; Crowley 12,880; so by a margin of 2.5% of the registered voters in her district, a grandstanding blight was unleashed into the American political arena.
Immediately, the media couldn’t wait to get the 28-year-old Democrat (who touted a degree in ECONOMICS, no less, from Boston University!) onto every major media outlet imaginable. She was Young! She was Pretty! She was a Democratic Socialist!
She was also dumber than dirt.
AOC distinguished herself in those early interviews by making statements that put her ignorance of economics, international affairs, world history, and for all I know, the price of tea in China, on full display. Her excuse? “Hey, I’m not the expert on this stuff!” This stuff? When she uttered those cute little words, all I could think of was this:
Ben Shapiro, not precisely my favorite person in the world, but an articulate individual who knows a thing or three, challenged the former bartender to a debate. He was willing to pay her $10,000 – not a bad sum for someone running a campaign for Congress. She whined that he was “catcalling her.” And, God help us, she’s been whining ever since.
Poor AOC. She apparently believed that running in a 90% Democrat Congressional District and getting more airtime on CNN and NBC than anyone since Michael Avenatti, attorney to the (porn) stars, she was in for an easy ride. She’s apparently forgotten there’s a whooooole other media out there, ready to hold her up to the ridicule she so richly deserves. Heck, even the more educated and even handed among the liberal MSM are embarrassed by her. When Anderson Cooper interviewed her and she made her “tippy top tax” statement, the expression on Anderson’s face could almost be interpreted as “how the HELL did you get elected?” Because for all her fake resume of being “Alex from the Bronx” (when she’s really Sandy from Westchester), she exhibits an amazing amount of immaturity when it comes to criticism.
She whined about finding an apartment in D.C. because she “hadn’t been paid yet.” Talk to the hand, honey. Try looking in San Francisco.
She whined when Donald Trump Jr. used a meme about her in one of his tweets, and then turned around and literally threatened him by saying “Please, keep it coming Jr – it’s definitely a ‘very, very large brain’ idea to troll a member of a body that will have subpoena power in a month.” He’s accomplished a great deal in his life; you were still perfecting the ratios for an Old Fashioned when you were elected, and honey, and last I checked, no matter who his father is, he’s still a private citizen.
Between that and fellow House member Eric Swalwell (Dumb-Silicon Valley) threatening NRA members with Nukes, we have so much to look forward to with this incoming Congress.
AOC believes that she is mocked by the right because they’re “afraid” of her, and her 1,000,000 Twitter followers take up the gauntlet for her on a daily basis. These are probably the same type of people that put themselves inside the funerals of Princess Diana and Gianni Versace – they literally believe if they leave flowers at a gate or tweet about it, they are a part of the story. They believe she is their socialist messiah, and they want to be a part of her fabulous Congressional life. Until the day the reality hits.
I recently saw a documentary on Netflix about something called the “Fyre Festival”, an event I had actually never heard of, which was to take place in the Bahamas in 2017. It was supposed to be this grandiose affair, hyped by the media and a promotional video featuring a dozen people I didn’t recognize, except one of the Kardashians, who all pushed it on Twitter and Instagram via a large orange block with the words “Fyre Festival…Will YOU BE THERE?”. Since these people are what are referred to as “influencers” in social media, it’s target market was rich kids with trust funds, who were more than willing to fork over something like $5,000 to sleep in luxury glamping tents on the beach and frolic with super models. There were to be primo acts, fabulous cuisine catered by world-class chefs, the most luxurious music festival ever. Why, you could even rent a luxury villa for the two weekends for $250,000. You would travel there by private jet.
Except it was all a fraud. There were tents – of the FEMA variety. Mattresses left to soak out in the rain which had to be carried in by the festival goers. The fabulous cuisine was a dry cheese sandwich in a styrofoam take out container with seven lettuce leaves thrown in. The private jet was a 737 with no air conditioning and people crammed in their seats. There were no luxury villas. Most if not all of the musical acts pulled out in advance when they weren’t paid. Pretty much all the festival goers, who 12 hours earlier were dancing and singing in the Miami airport on their way to “FYRE!” were drenched and miserable sitting on a the tarmac for six hours on a plane trying to return to Miami. And when they got home and posted their tales of woe at being duped, they didn’t get a whole lot of sympathy from hoi poloi, who couldn’t help but post their schadenfreude at these “better than you because I’m going to Fyre” rich kids who had been taken in by a slick, media-hyped fraud.
Which pretty much sums up what Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez really is. A slick media promotion with nothing whatsoever to back up the hype.
excellent! thx, barbarian
i doubt that AOC could properly identify, let alone label, an IS/LM curve or discuss the various theories on inflation
Barbarian, good job. This should be reposted all over the place

btw, that FAQ doc that they’re saying is fake and that they removed from their website – somebody pulled the meta data from it – date/time created, written on a mac owned by that Indian chick, etc. etc. All it means it was typed up on a machine ‘owned’ by her.

Consider that during the shutdown we sent home 800,000 nonessential federal government employees. The first question a rational person should ask upon hearing that is in what world does any organization, for profit or even nonprofit, have even one employee considered nonessential, much less nearly 40 percent of its workers? The answer is that world doesn’t exist. Neither a for-profit nor a nonprofit would be in business very long with that many nonessential employees. Yet we taxpayers fund roughly 2 million civilian government employees at a cost of $136 billion every year.

Other than absolute hatred of Trump by the left, this political theater is still in their minds “revenge” for Clinton. What they don’s seem to grasp here is that 90% of the country knew Clinton was guilty. Even those on the left understood that, that’s why they tried to minimize the severity of his crimes. This time around they are going after a President with decent polling, on accusations that most of the country knows are baseless. This is going to blow up in their faces spectacularly. If Mueller had anything the “investigation” wouldn’t still be dragging on.

Salvini wants to get rid of Italy’s Central Bank. An Italian banking collapse could crack apart the EU. Italy wants out of the corrupt EU.
On Friday, in a moment of predictive insight, Bank of America correctly warned that the greatest threat to EPS – i.e., markets – in the next 3 years “is an acceleration of global populism via taxation, regulation & government intervention.” Just one day later, this warning to the financial establishment was starkly manifest in that ground zero for Europe’s populist revolt, Italy, where the country’s coalition government hinted at where the global populist wave is headed next when he slammed the country’s central bank leadership and stock market regulator, escalating its attacks on establishment figures ahead of the European parliamentary vote in May.
Matteo Salvini, the outspoken head of the anti-immigrant League party, said the Bank of Italy and Consob, the country’s stock market regulator, should be “reduced to zero, more than changing one or two people, reduced to zero”, or in other words eliminated, and that “fraudsters” who inflicted losses on Italian savers should “end up in prison for a long time.”
As the FT notes, this latest broadside against Italy’s financial establishment comes as the two parties which are increasingly at odds with each other amid speculation Salvini may hold elections to become the sole leader of Italy, prepare to run against each other in the European parliamentary elections in May, a contest widely seen as a proxy for national polls. Meanwhile, both leaders have also increased their attacks against targets including the EU and French president Emmanuel Macron.
Confirming the rising animosity between the two coalition partners, the League and Five Star have openly squabbled over the future of an Alpine rail line and migration, while the two leaders’ repeated attacks against France which culminated with Di Maio meeting the leaders of the anti-Macron Yellow Vest moment, triggered a diplomatic crisis which last week saw Paris recall its ambassador from Rome

I think Illan Omar might be very good for Republicans. The Dem Jews are about to slam their checkbooks.
Freshman Minnesota Democrat Ilhan Omar ignited a new controversy on Sunday night when she suggested GOP support for Israel is driven by campaign donations from a prominent pro-Israel group.
Omar singled out AIPAC, one of the most influential lobbying groups in Washington, as the source of those donations.
Omar’s comments touched upon a long-running, and particularly ugly, thread of the anti-Semitic movement — that Jewish money fuels backing for Israel in the United States and elsewhere. A freshman Democrat, Max Rose of New York, said, “Congresswoman Omar’s statements are deeply hurtful to Jews, including myself.”

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — U.S. Steel Corp. says it’s restarting construction on an idled manufacturing facility in Alabama, and it’s giving some of the credit to President Donald Trump’s trade policies.
The Pittsburgh-based company says Trump’s “strong trade actions” are partly responsible for the resumption of work on an advanced plant near Birmingham. The administration’s tariffs have raised prices on imported steel and aluminum.
The manufacturer also cited improving market conditions, union support and government incentives in a statement Monday.
U.S. Steel suspended work on the electric arc furnace in December 2015. It says work is resuming immediately and the facility will have an annual capacity of 1.6 million tons (1.5 million metric tons).
The company is also updating other equipment. It plans to spend about $215 million and add about 150 full-time workers.

You just KNOW somebody from NYC thought the middle of Feb would be a great time to get away from it all. In Maui.

Eric Garcetti Declares ‘Green New Deal’ in L.A., Cancels Natural Gas Plants; Officials Doubt ‘Keeping the Lights On’
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti declared Monday that the city would abandon plans to rebuild three natural gas power plants, despite concerns that the city could face acute power shortages as a result.
Instead, the city will look for energy from renewable sources, including wind and solar, he decided.
“This is the Green New Deal … Not in concept, not in the future, but now,” Garcetti said, as quoted by the Los Angeles Times.
He made the decision despite the fact that “top staffers have argued in recent months that the gas plants are critical to keeping the lights on in the city,” the Times noted.

@ The Barbarian:
I want names.
Gavin Newsom has announced in his State of the State address that he’s dumping the high-speed rail from Los Angeles to San Francisco as too costly and taking too long, which means they will also be dumping the idiot idea to one day extend it to San Diego.
However, not to let Jerry Brown outdo him in the dumber than dirt department, he says he wants to keep the segment that they have been working on, Bakersfield to Merced. He says “I know some will say it’s a ‘train to nowhere’ but I think that’s wrong and that’s offensive.”
No, Governor s**t for brains. What’s offensive is the almost $77 billion in funds that have been wasted on a train that is going to have as it’s sole purpose taking idiots from the spas in Merced to the Maserati dealership in Bakersfield. ONE way and only once. No one needs to fast-track a 163-mile trip that can probably be driven in under three hours. Especially after hitting that Maserati dealership.
We already have train tracks though the Central Valley. That’s how we get the effing CROPS out.
@ The Barbarian:

@ coldwarrior:
Dammit…this stick is excellent…
From AJ ‘value line’. The guy is a god.
BACKGROUND:
From the Diesel web site:
“Abdel ‘AJ’ Fernandez was born in San Luis, Cuba, where he studied under his neighbor, the legendary Don Alejandro Robaina. After nearly two decades of learning and perfecting his craft under Alejandro’s guidance, AJ fled Cuba to Esteli, Nicaragua, and established his own cigar factory. Utilizing traditional Cuban cigar-making techniques, along with several secret family processes, his cigars embrace a unique old world character that’s traditional and familiar, but distinctive as well. His proprietary premium tobaccos are superior in nature and fermented to perfection. His quality control measures are among the most stringent in the industry. And his uncanny ability to work with and properly blend tobaccos is nearly unsurpassed.”
Oh, and by the way, the new Transit Terminal that they just finished up in San Francisco, has as its LOWEST level the space for the High Speed Rail train tracks and the concourse to go along with it.
Now, the Cal Train commuter train from San Francisco to the Peninsula (San Jose) will also be able to use that concourse, and this was planned, but construction hasn’t even STARTED on the rail extension from the current terminus at 4th and Townsend. This will have to be done completely underground since there’s a lot of pricey real estate already occupying the space. And frankly, there’s been a falling off of ridership since the buses started taking the techies from San Francisco to Silicon Valley and pick them up in their neighborhoods. BART now travels as far south as the Airport.
$77 billion. And Gavin doesn’t want to give the federal funds back, either.

Totally knackered
I took over with baby Rohan last night. Thought I’d got away with it until 0230 ! The wee man filled his boots. I considered laying ‘dog-O’ and hoping that he was going to doze off but my bloody sense of responsibility kicked in. I thought I’d turned off that mode during the O-Dark Thirty schedule. Then I thought of the nappy rash by 0630. Snuck around turning outside lights so that indirect lighting wouldn’t totally wake him up and used a disposable. There was shit all over the place from one ‘gia-normace’ movement. Couldn’t keep him enough asleep and clean him up. Then he decided he wanted a quick snack. Groan…..
By 0300 I had him back in his crib and he was back to sleep. Naturally by the time I cleaned up myself there was no more sleep left in me! Up again at 0630 for an onetime feed. Todays his monthly visit to hospital. His mum is down here at the ‘beach’; while their bathroom is being gutted and rebuilt. They were on the road back to Auckland by 0730 and collected family on the way as they are talking ‘solids! Big deal ehhh? 🙂
His dad snuck away from shift ( the precinct Sarge told him to go for 60 minutes ) as he wanted to be there to support his wee man. The Police place new dads and dads with family problems in this ‘slow precinct’, so that they can get away when they have to for family reasons. Pretty nice of the cops and they look after their own!
I’m wasted.

I think Gavin may have been planning this – there are hints that he was more conservative (cough!) than Brown in the overall. Nancy may indeed have asked him to “announce” – I think she’s really still about putting AOC in her place right now. That refusing to name her to the Select Committee on Climate Change was the first strike. This may very well be her second.
Gavin wants to be President. I would NOT be surprised to see him throw his hat in the ring, but not right now. The field is cluttered with announcements. He’d just be one of many. I look for him to declare in June or July, when he can actually get some attention. Especially if that other Californian, Horizontal Harris, is still on her slow path to disaster.

I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see him announce, I think he’s had that as a long term goal for awhile. I think that for one reason – Kimberly Guilfoyle married him. She’s been a political groupie her whole life and now latched onto Trump Jr. Unfortunately for her, she keeps picking men who can’t keep it zipped.
