In her latest appearance on Vice TV, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) urged Americans to refuse calls to go back to work as the economy is poised to gradually reopen.
As a Member of the House of Representatives, Ocasio-Cortez makes $174,000 annually.
The Daily Wire’s Hank Berrien has more:
Vice TV, which will air “A Seat at the Table” along with Ocasio-Cortez’s commentary, reported, “Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez calls for a national work boycott. The congresswoman says Americans should refuse to go back to work.”
Ocasio-Cortez reportedly stated on the show, “When we talk about this idea of reopening society you know, only in America —does the president — when the president tweets about liberation — does he mean go back to work. When we have this discussion about going back or reopening, I think a lot people should just say no — we’re not going back to that,” according to the Washington Times. Ocasio-Cortez continued, “We’re not going back to working 70-hour weeks just so that we can put food on the table and not even feel any sort of semblance of security in our lives.”
Ocasio-Cortez was referring to President Trump’s series of tweets calling for the liberation of states that have been encumbered with stay-at-home orders and lockdowns.
Without any sense of irony, AOC proceeded to scold the president for the recent loss of 20 million jobs.
As The Daily Wire reported, “Ocasio-Cortez’s remarks are not true. Republicans have repeatedly led on the issue of providing funding to Americans and American businesses that are struggling as a result of the pandemic only to be repeatedly blocked by Democrats.”

AOC blows weenies for free.
AOC has doodoo for brains.
“… just so that we can put food on the table…”
Yeah. Oh, the pettiness of people endeavoring to survive.
Don’t work don’t eat !! You want to eat better work.But she wants the tax payers to pay for the bumbs.
I dread the day she becomes last evening’s news! She provides
SO much comic relief almost daily that is so much needed in these trying times! I don’t know if she is so inherently stupid,
but she is so darned funny with some (most) of her views, I can’t help but laugh and share with my friends! I won’t denigrate those who elected her, at least I see in whom they vote/ next election. They vote her back in, and they are fair game!!
The first person in this boycott to be given her walking papers should be Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She’s achieved nothing, she’s contributed nothing, and as a public employee she needs to be let go.
Every time her or the other squad members speak, you know with out a doubt its going to be BS! So shameful we have these people in our government! Punishment enough with nasty nancy and her close mob of jerks! And to add insult to we the people of CA have newscum to deal with!
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez continues to amaze! Just when one thinks she has hit an epitome of stupidity, she tops herself. One could only wish she takes her own advice and boycotts her own work.
ABC is simply one of the “Domestic” enemies most of us have taken an oath to protect our country from.
Cortez should practice what she preaches and give up her paycheck too, leave her job and stay out of sight.l
Tinygus (the idiot new york gave us) is the sorriest most inept representative the USA has ever had. New York should be ashamed…in fact, they shot themselves in the damm foot with this idiot. Moron, complete empty headed moron.
