The world is going to end in 12 years unless the government takes action, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) said Monday at a Martin Luther King forum in New York City.

Here’s an excerpt from her interview with Ta-Nehisi Coates:

“And I think the part of it that is generational is that millennials and people, in Gen Z, and all these folks that come after us are looking up and we’re like, the world is gonna end in 12 years if we don’t address climate change. You’re biggest issue, your biggest issue is how are going to pay for it? — and like this is the war, this is our World War II. And I think for younger people looking at this are more like, how are we saying let’s take it easy when 3,000 Americans died last year, how are we saying let’s take it easy when the end person died from our cruel and unjust criminal justice system?

How are we saying take it easy, the America that we’re living in today is dystopian with people sleeping in their cars so they can work a second job without healthcare and we’re told to settle down. It’s a fundamental separation between that fierce urgency of now, the why we can’t wait that King spoke of. That at some point this chronic reality do reach a breaking point and I think for our generation it reached that, I wished I didn’t have to be doing every post, but sometimes I just feel like people aren’t being held accountable. Until, we start pitching in and holding people accountable, I’m just gonna let them have it.”


UPDATE: Rep. Ocasio-Cortez responded to Grabien’s post. She writes, “For some reason GOP seems to think this is a gaffe, but it’s actually a generational difference. Young people understand that climate change is an existential threat: 3,000 Americans died in Hurricane María. The UN says we’ve got 12 years left to fix it.”

This really surprises you? Cortez was given her seat by The Luciferian, secret society, New world order seeking, globalists. They have been trying to push the climate as a problem for years hoping they could enslave humanity by imposing a global C02 carbon tax on everyone. First it was "the global climate is rising" and when scientists disproved that and thousands signed a document decrying global warming as a hoax....now they are saying it's climate "Change" when they use climate change weapons against humanity like "HAARP"...these murderers are causing the problem so they can implement the solution they have waiting in the wings....The Carbon tax....so we can be hemmed up and ready to be sheared like sheep....of course the bought and paid for Cortez is going to jump on the climate change band wagon....she is just doing what she is told....i have said before she is most likely a member in good standing in a local coven....just doing her part for Satan. Wake up to the Luciferian agenda guys and gals....Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030 are no joke....there really is a population reduction movement being achieved right now as we speak....you can see the evidence everywhere....our food supply has very little nutrients, vitamins or minerals left in it.....you think this is a coincidence? Do you think it's just a coincidence that we have fluoride and chlorine and many pharmaceutical drugs in our water supply? Chem trails with Nano-sized aluminum, Strontium, and Barium being sprayed on all of us and they can't talk about it because geoengineering is a national security issue? How about the many metals, chemicals, parasites, and bacteria becoming more and more prevalent in our food supply? Coincidence? all of it coincidence? Wake up people....there IS a population reduction (soft kill)happening right here in America today....anyone notice that lately companies are advertising for a need for drivers who deliver caskets...and for funeral home assistants? Don't listen to what i say....go research it yourself. Stop worrying about bought and paid for politicians like Cortez and focus on the bigger picture. The bigger picture is that we ARE in end times....Satan is real....Jesus's return is soon....the wheat will be separated from the chaff....do not waste time blogging about the dancing bimbo Cortez when your eternal life hangs in the balance....go research if Jesus is real.....put your time where it will do you the most good.....my hope is that you may find the truth.

Good call. It will fall on deaf democrat ears.

Nothing that theleftist idiots in this country surprises me. After electing and re-electing their past choice for president, arguably the worst thing to happen to America, the only thing I expect from them is more of the same push to turn America
away from the freedoms we enjoy. They put party first and don’t care if we turn to socialism. Venezuela, here we come is their battle cry.

No one has to tell me about her mental capacity. Every time she opens her mouth, another crazy statement come out. Still, she has her following. What do you think that says about her?

working class stiff Loc: N. Carolina

No, no....we hear Noraa. Anyone that makes the right so irrational gets my vote. Hope she runs for president in 10 yrs.

Perhaps by then you guys will have imagined her responsibility for a body count to match her age.

Typical irrational statement from the ultra left. Still, you have the right to your opinion, no matter how wrong it is. You have to live with I.
