Ocasio-Cortez rips McConnell for Green New Deal vote: 'He doesn't want to save our planet'

Speaking to Vox reporter Ella Nilsen, Ocasio-Cortez accused McConnell of rushing a vote and not wanting to take action against climate change "because he thinks we can drink oil in 30 years when all our water is poisoned. “What McConnell’s doing is that he’s trying to rush this bill to the floor without a hearing... without working through committee -- because he doesn’t want to save our planet. Because he thinks we can drink oil in 30 years when all our water is poisoned,” she reportedly said. In a tweet on Monday, McConnell seemingly addressed accusations that he was manipulating the vote to divide Democrats. “I could not be more glad that the American people will have the opportunity to learn precisely where each one of their senators stand on the ‘Green New Deal’: a radical, top-down, socialist makeover of the entire U.S. economy," he wrote. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tossed another childish temper tantrum today, this time while speaking in Congress. Watch b

After the floor vote last night where almost all Senate Democrats blocked a bill preventing infanticide, McConnell took to the floor this morning to condemn the “stunning extremism” of the Democrat party in the Senate. See Also:  Here are the Republican Senators who will vote AGAINST Trump’s National Emergency Watch: As we told you last night, there were only three Democrats who voted with Republicans on the infanticide bill. Which is why McConnell says 94% of Democrats wouldn’t vote to protect these innocent babies. See Also:  Heartbreaking… This isn't in New York, this isn't in California, this happened just this week right here in Virginia. We’ve been watching the Democratic Party get more and more extreme as the years went by under Obama. Now there are many of them openly supporting more extreme radical socialist policy positions like Medicare for All. And we’re not just talking about fringe Democrat politicians, we’re talking about almost all

McConnell : "I've noted with great interest the Green New Deal. And we're going to be voting on that in the Senate. Give everybody an opportunity to go on record and see how they feel about the #GreenNewDeal."
