AOC wasn't even in the Capital for her nearly murdered claim during Capitol riot...


Critics are beginning to question Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s previous claims that she was near death during the Jan. 6 Capitol Building attack and that her office was breached by rioters.

The controversy began last month following the riot when the self-proclaimed Democratic socialist from New York exchanged barbs with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), accusing him of helping incite the attack by objecting to a slate of electors from Arizona and demanding he resign.

The back-and-forth escalated throughout January, culminating in an online exchange whereby Ocasio-Cortez accused Cruz of trying to have her killed.

Then, in a video posted online by the left-wing group Justice Democrats earlier this week, Ocasio-Cortez claimed that, as rioters approached and then breached her office, she was told by a staffer to “hide, hide, run and hide.”

“I thought I was going to die. I have never been quieter in my entire life,” she explained in the video, adding that she hid in her office bathroom.

She also said a man broke into her office and that she could hear him yelling before and after he entered: “Where is she? Where is she?”

Later, she explained that the man was actually a Capitol Police officer whom she said appeared angry and hostile to her.

Her story was amplified by media reports and, some say, falsified, including one from Newsweek which claimed Ocasio-Cortez said “rioters actually entered her office, forcing her to take refuge inside her bathroom after her legislative director Geraldo Bonilla-Chavez” told her to hide.

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) noted on Twitter that her office is in the Cannon House Office Building, two doors down from the New York Democrat, and that no one breached the building. She also blasted Newsweek for...

More Cowbell For AOC....

43,000+ Teacher Association Leader Is “Revolutionary Socialist” Following Mao’s Teachings, Weaponizing Schools Into ‘Revolutionary’ Hotbeds.



The Vice President of North Carolina’s largest teachers’ association is a self-avowed Marxist activist linked to Liberation Road – a “revolutionary socialist” group that follows the teachings of Karl Marx and Mao Zedong.

The “revolutionary” – Bryan Proffitt – leads the North Carolina Association of Educators (NCAE), which boasts over 43,000 members and revenues of over $8,000,000.

Socialism for Your Kids.

Proffitt previously served as President of the Durham Association of Educators and as a teacher from 2004 to 2015, also earning a spot as a finalist for the Teacher of the Year award among Durham Public Schools.

Outside the classroom, however, Proffitt is staunchly committed to precipitating a shift to socialism within the United States.

“We are revolutionary socialists in the U.S. dedicated to fighting for a social system where social wealth is not in the hands of a few billionaires, but is controlled by the people,” Proffitt’s Liberation Road provides as its description.

Liberation Road also presents Republicans as “the main enemy”:

Using the framework of the united front, we identify the New Confederacy—composed of the most reactionary faction of capital and middle strata, rightwing racists, united in the Republican Party—as the main enemy. We use this term to emphasize the fact that the Right in this country is rooted in a racist program and strategy

What’s more, the group reveals it follows the teachings of Mao Zedong:

From Mao, the methods of the mass line and the united front — how to learn from the experiences and insights of workers and broad masses to formulate demands and build struggles that are as broad and inclusive as possible yet also really challenge the system; and the insight that the transitional relations of production under the socialist state generate new exploiters who must be prevented from restoring capitalism.

LIBERATION ROAD’S FAQ.



“There is also much to learn from the countless fighters who have helped scout the terrain ahead. These include not just Karl Marx and V.I. Lenin and Mao Zedong, but Malcolm X, Ella Baker, Amilcar Cabral, Jose Carlos Mariategui, Antonio Gramsci, Jose Marti, Franz Fanon, Digna Ochoa, Berta Carceres, and many, many more,” the group adds.

Proffitt has authored white papers for the group, hoping they would “encourage more young people to participate in the conversation on organization and what we need to build a revolutionary movement.”

Leftists Are Openly Mocking Free Speech As A “Right-wing Fetish”



“They don’t even realize that these are tired ideas that they are lifting from a 70 year old indictment of the totalitarian state”

Appearing on Tucker Carlson Tonight Wednesday, author and columnist Mark Steyn warned that we are at the stage where free speech is being mocked by the left as a “right-wing fetish”.

Steyn responded to a call in the New York Times for Joe Biden to appoint a “reality czar” to debunk “disinformation,” a notion that many pointed out conjures up the Ministry of Truth from Orwell’s 1984.



Steyn emphasized that the left “regard an ever-expanding range of topics as there being a correct view … whether it’s climate change or Islam or same-sex marriage or transgender participation in sports, there is a settled view and once we have settled it we need no longer need to debate.”

“The problem is there are an ever-expanding range of issues that are added to the list,” Steyn continued, adding “in the United States, where disagreeing with the official state position on, for example, a new coronavirus that nobody...

The QAnon Takeover Of The GOP Is A Fantasy Of Corporate Media And Democrats














There is indeed a fight underway for the future of the Republican Party, but it's not about QAnon conspiracy theories or crackpot lawmakers.

There’s a big push right now among corporate media, Democrats, and NeverTrumpers to establish a narrative that the Republican Party is being torn apart in a bitter civil war between its establishment wing and its supposed QAnon wing. It’s about as true as your garden-variety QAnon conspiracy theory, but it’s politically useful, which is why you’re seeing it crop up all over the media right now.

According to this narrative, dangerous right-wing conspiracy theorists and QAnon acolytes make up a sizable portion of the GOP electorate and enjoy broad acceptance among many Republican elected officials and right-of-center media outlets. These people believe all the “lies” and “conspiracy theories” that Trump peddled after the November election—so much so that they launched an “armed insurrection” at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 in a failed attempt to overturn the election results and maybe even kidnap Vice President Mike Pence or murder Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

This “wing” of the GOP is so dangerous, we’re told, we need a 9/11-style commission to investigate what happened on Jan. 6, we might need a new domestic terrorism law, and we’re definitely going to have to figure out how to “de-radicalize” Trump supporters. Half the country has lost its mind, you see, which is why so many legacy media outlets have been publishing very serious essays on “MAGA extremism.” If we don’t address this now then MAGA white supremacist militias will terrorize America—like al-Qaeda, only worse.

Tune into NPR or CNN, browse the pages of The New York Times or The Washington Post, and you’ll hear all of this discussed in detail, ad nauseum. But it’s pure fantasy, almost a kind of conspiracy theory of its own, akin to the years-long conspiracy theories about Trump’s collusion with Russia in the 2016 election, which Democrats and the press still cling to despite zero evidence after years of investigations.

Indeed, the notoriety QAnon now enjoys has more to do with the media building it up than Republicans flocking to its banner. According to Pew Research, last spring during the Democratic primaries, more Democrats had heard about QAnon conspiracy theories than Republicans had (28 to 18 percent, respectively) and by the fall, that disparity had grown, with 55 percent of Democrats saying they’d heard of QAnon compared to less than 40 percent of Republicans. Notably, those most likely to say they had heard about it also reported that they got their news mainly from...
