Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez unloaded on those who qualify her policy propositions as “free stuff.”
Ocasio-Cortez, the 30-year-old socialist New York representative elected to Congress last year, expressed her frustration with critics who write off her policies, such as tuition-free college, "Medicare for all," and expanding public housing, as “handouts” or “free stuff” to rope in voters.
“It’s not that we deserve it because it’s a handout. People like to say, ‘Oh, this is about free stuff.’ This is not about free stuff,” Ocasio-Cortes said at a Bronx town hall over the weekend.
The freshman Democrat claimed those in her party who believe in free-market orientated policies try to paint her policies in a negative light.
“ These are public goods . They’re public goods. So I never want to hear the word or the term ‘free stuff’ ever again ... because I’m tired of already hearing some of these neoliberal folks who are trying to like flip the script on us,” she explained.
She added, “Like when we’re talking about tuition-free public college or when we talk about public housing they say, ‘Oh, well, I don’t want to pay for a millionaire’s kid to go to college.’ That’s their like jujitsu on us that they’re trying to pull.”

She's still cute when she tries to "Socialize" !
"This is not about free stuff"
I noticed her comment "DIDN'T" say ….. This is NOT "Free stuff" !
"free stuff" is exactly like the n-word. Exactly. You're not allowed to use it anymore.
It's the same ol' "Liberal" ploy !
"Change" the name, and their folks will love it !
Kinda like "Quid-Pro-Quo" is now "Extorsion" and/or "Bribery" !
When the main subject fails AGAIN...go to a "Simpler" go-to !
Maybe now we can start using the real term for "free stuff". That term would be "stolen goods". Whether stolen by a private thug or by governmental jack booted thugs under the name of "taxation", they're still stolen goods that you worked to get.
Impeachment is staying impeachment in the House. Censure is a possibility in the Senate because of the corrupt Republicans refusal to address the charges.
try again..
the senate will not be playing along with the leftwing games.
So you are claiming that the Senate will reject the impeachment proceedings outright? Refuse to even consider any evidence?
Personally, I hope you're right.
actually I think they can't wait to dig into the schiffs bs... perhaps even the bidens
they will question everyone who has testified in the house uninterrupted by schiff. including the whistleblower and all the people schiff does not want us to hear from.
personally, I don't think schiff is dumb enough to pass his clown show to the senate. but time will tell.
cheers
What are you talking about? They haven't even been presented with charges to consider yet.
They've heard them the same as you.
The only way I hear about them is in the news. Constitutionally, that is not presenting charges to the Senate. Thus, they are not empowered to act on them or ignore them. The Senate has nothing to do right now regarding impeachment. Impeachment hasn't happened yet. They are not yet in a position where "refusing to address charges" is even possible.
Why do you continually try to insist people say things that they don't? I never claimed they "presented charges", but since you are unable to explain away from the publicly advertised charges that everyone with a computer or tv knows about, you try to move the goals.
Republicans HAVE responded to the charges that Trump is facing and have all come up with pitiful excuses that do not address them.
What you said was:
Your words describe procedures in the Senate.
This has been explained to you, but I will say it again. Senate Republicans are not in a position to address or "refuse to address" charges until the full House has voted to impeach the president on specific charges.
It is false to accuse them of being corrupt for refusing to address charges that have not been submitted.
The internet, the news, and shit congressmen say on TV is irrelevant.
Bullshit and you know it!
You continue to claim I have said things, which I have not, because otherwise you have no defense.
Yeah, a lot of times people hate when you call stuff what it is because that honesty tends to expose the stupidity of their idea.
Funny, not one word from the lefties o NT on this yet...
AOC is one of those they'll support, just because, but have a hard time supporting what she says !
So Mr. Trump must REALLY love this one........................
