“When she got home from her North Dakota trip, a leader of BNC called her out of the blue with an ask: Will you run for US Congress in New York’s 14th district? (The Insider) “BNC cofounder Saikat Chakrabarti, (who went on to be AOC campaign manager), said the group wasn’t looking for anyone to challenge the district’s 10-term Democratic incumbent when they reached out to the 27-year-old. “But after a few calls and a meeting with Ocasio-Cortez, Chakrabarti thought, “Holy crap: You’re an incredible candidate.” “It took a few months of convincing, but Ocasio-Cortez, still moved by what she saw at Standing Rock (ND), said yes.”
“The congressional campaign began with a handful of volunteers, living-room stump speeches, and a coalition of local progressive support.” (The Insider) “They proposed big ideas: a universal jobs guarantee, abolishing the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency, and tuition-free public college. “Justice Democrats, another Sanders-inspired group that Chakrabarti founded, gave Ocasio-Cortez media and policy training. Volunteers led an aggressive canvassing operation.”The rest of this tawdry tale is that having been chosen from the cast of 10,000 entrants when Sanders birthed her into political life, AOC has been out there acting ever since. Put another way, when it comes to being an elected official, drama queen AOC, makes a pretty good actress. AOC’s cry “You almost had me murdered three weeks ago” to Senator Ted Cruz, in reference to the Jan. 6 Capitol ‘Insurrection’, came exactly 21 days after the actual event. AOC’s latest staged act, with her claims of being “almost” murdered at a scene she was nowhere near, should take the next Academy Award.
