    Subject: AOC's Chief of Staff: Green New Deal Not Really About Climate, It Was About Communism

    Remember this when the Climate Cult comes at you with crap like this in the future. They don't care about the climate. They care about power over you and your life and imposing collectivism on you. The fake hysteria over the climate is just the cover they're using to do it.

    ------------------------
    Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's chief of staff Saikat Chakrabarti admitted recently that the true motivation behind introducing the Green New Deal was to "overhaul the entire economy of America".

    Chakrabarti said during a meeting with Washington Governor Jay Inslee that addressing climate change was not Ocasio-Cortez's top priority in proposing
    the Green New Deal . "The interesting thing about the Green New Deal, it
    wasn't originally a climate thing at all," Chakrabarti said to Inslee's
    climate director, Sam Ricketts, according to a Washington Post reporter who attended the meeting for a profile published Wednesday. "Did you guys think of it as a climate thing? Because we really thought of it as a how-do-you-change-the-entire-economy thing."

    I think this article is a bit dated. According to Wikipedia, Inslee
    hasn't been the governor of Washington since 2025. I also remember
    reading that this Chakrabarti guy (?) hasn't been AOC's chief of staff
    for at least a couple of years. I got the impression that the Democratic
    Party somehow pressured her to give him up because he was perceived as
    too radical. Of course, given how radical they are now, maybe he's back.

    Why is that relevant? I just came across it. But who cares when he said it? Whether he said it now or three years ago, he said it.

    Because I want the entire economy changed by an ignorant, lying, ex
    bartender.

    It's probably NOT irrelevant but given the passage of time, that let's
    them distance themselves from it by claiming that was their old thinking
    and they've moved on. That would probably be a lie but some people would
    be fooled by that and give them the benefit of the doubt and think
    they'd matured since then.

    Fyi, I believe you'd immensely enjoy last night's Bill Maher --
    specifically, his 5-minute-or-so 'New Rules' at the end.
