Chaos erupts as furious protesters heckle AOC during Dems’ press conference for NYC’s escalating migrant crisis

The New York pols were drowned out by the angry screams outside the Roosevelt Hotel mega shelter in Midtown Friday morning.

Food for thought perhaps. Just last Friday.

I don't usually get food for thought from a Rupert Murdock owned tabloid.
I read it. She doesn't call for open borders anywhere. In fact what she says makes sense.
But you can guarantee she'll open all borders and let every immigrant in...

It looks like a centre-left Labour policies she advocates to me...when centre-left in Labour meant progressive policies rather than now when centre-left means just to the left of Attila the Hun.

exactly. AOC is center left on the global stage but super far left here.
It's easy for Murdock to vilify her as his model needs a villain and the right, even the moderate right, eat it up.

Yea, there's an immigration crisis, she's calling for compassion and trying to figure out a solution.
You might not like the solution
but a no point does she call for open borders and letting everyone in.
This is the problem.
You've bought the narrative and are eating it up.

It means nation states should consider their own interests first, not allow themselves to be subsumed into some kind of global hegemony.

Which is exactly what Zelensky and the Ukrainians have chosen to do by not welcoming your man and his mob in with open arms!

Yes, I am. Mainstream media influences me around tea/supper time.

"Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is set to take part in a special Security Council session Wednesday at the United Nations on the war ravaging his country, in the hope of solidifying support from Western allies and beyond. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov is also scheduled to attend the meeting, Russian state media reported, setting up a potentially dramatic encounter between the pair."


Fight!!!!

 

[Kev The Rat]

what do you mean?
You were implying that America wants to prolong the war as it is in their interest.
I dont think thats true.
The upshot for America is that the American tax payer is on the hook for a proxy war with Putin.
It's not as unpopular as boots on the ground but soon it wont be far off. Putin is counting on this.

So the us will stop funding the war?
