Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) sent people scratching their heads when she spoke in Ebonics at a rally for black Tennessee Congressional Candidate Justin Pearson. 

Many were quick to point out AOC’s strange accent.

AOC is Hispanic and Puerto Rican, but instead of staying in her own lane and leaning into her actual cultural roots, she embraced trans ideology and turned herself into a black woman for the rally in the South.

Isn’t that called cultural appropriation?

During the speech, she referenced a rally she attended in Montgomery, Alabama, earlier this year with Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), whom she called “Sista Presley,” telling New Yorkers to “pull up” to the South to help fight Republicans.

Notably, during her May speech in Montgomery, AOC did not appear to have this same accent. Perhaps she’s been working on it.

WATCH:

AOC: Brothers and sisters, we cannot afford to leave Tennessee behind. We cannot afford to leave Kentucky behind, Alabama behind, Mississippi behind, Georgia behind, South Carolina behind! There is no country when we are split apart. About a month or two ago, we’re in Montgomery, Alabama.

Sista Pressley and I were in Montgomery, Alabama, and one of the things that we said was that it is time for the North to roll up to the South. It is long past time that we help our brothers and sisters wake up too. We saw this when Justin demanded action on gun violence, and the Republicans responded by expelling him from office.

This isn’t the first time. Back in April 2025, AOC used a similar Kamala Harris-like accent while speaking at a “Fighting Oligarchy” rally with Sen. Bernie Sanders in Nampa, Idaho.

Two US service members were killed in action in Jordan this week.

One service member is still missing.

Teachers Union President Randi Weingarten railed against Trump at the American Federation of Teachers national convention in Washington, DC, jumping up and down as she screamed. 

Per American Federation of Teachers:

Delivering her State of the Union address before thousands of educators, healthcare professionals and public employees at the AFT’s national convention in Washington, D.C., AFT President Randi Weingarten delivered a powerful message: “We will change the trajectory of this nation and secure a better future for all.”

Calling on delegates to harness “the power of the people,” Weingarten said unions remain one of the few forces capable of standing up to concentrated wealth and political power.

“Yes, the other side has enormous power,” she said. “But this is what they don’t have: The power of the people.”

She also drew a stark moral contrast between the needs of working families and the Trump administration’s policies, which have been marked by attacks on the institutions and rights working people rely on to build secure and dignified lives—including public education and collective bargaining. She invoked Martin Luther King Jr.’s vision of the “‘beloved community’—an America where hate has no home.” That, she said, is the difference between the values of the labor movement and the administration’s policies. “We use our power for good—against chaos, cruelty and corruption,” she said.

At one point, she said, “Oh, and one more thing: we get sh*t done.”

During a panel discussion on Friday, the educator said that her TDS is so bad that it makes her drink.

“What Donald Trump does, whether you consider him an authoritarian or not, is the throwing out of so much stuff that people just throw up their hands and say, ‘Oh no, what are we going to— All I want to do is stay home,’ and for those of us who drink, have a glass of wine, or for me, some vodka,” she said.

Excerpts via Fox:

In another clip from the convention, Weingarten could be seen similarly going wild on stage at a Pride of the Union reception, screaming about billionaires and cheering on the teachers union.

The Gateway Pundit reported that 33-year-old Kaitlyn Tracey, a Canadian illegal alien living in Allenhurst, New Jersey, assaulted a teenage girl earlier this month just because she wore patriotic clothing.

Before the assault, Tracey “verbally berated” the teenagers and kept approaching, harassing, and yelling at the teen girl and her friends over their clothing.

Video of the assault, which occurred in early July, was recently released.

Following the incident, Tracey was charged with simple assault, endangering the welfare of a child, harassment, and obstruction.

According to Fox News, a search of the ICE detainee locator confirms Tracey is in ICE custody at the Delaney Hall facility.

Tracey’s violent behavior is not the end of the story.  Her catapult to front-page news has also exposed disturbing behavior from her American husband, Matthew Geroni.

Initially, her husband took to social media to beg for help for his wife.

“My wife is being detained by ICE. She’s in Ocean County jail right now, and I can’t get ahold of her.”

But by stepping into the spotlight himself, he exposed his own disturbing behavior.

After his post gained traction, prior disturbing social media posts came to light, including one where he prayed that the entire Trump family, including “little kids,” be struck down by cancer.

“In them, he prays for cancer to strike President Trump and his entire family, including ‘little kids and shit,’ prays for another assassination attempt against the president, goes on lengthy rants wishing Trump dead, celebrates Trump’s reported chronic medical diagnosis, and recently claimed Americans would celebrate if Trump were to die during the World Cup.”

Now, Shorenewsnetwork reports on additional disturbing social media posts that threaten local politicians and their families, and also mock Charlie Kirk’s murder.

In one post, he sends a ‘reminder’ to local politicians, saying, “A reminder if you work in local government, we know where you live.”

“Some of us can fu**ing walk there.  I just think you should understand that the things you do have consequences and everyone here knows where you live.”

“We also know where you work…we also know where you work.”

“Hell, we know where your kids go to school because they go to school with our kids.”

“I’m just saying this is food for thought. You should keep this in mind when making all of your life decisions, especially those decisions that affect other people in your community.”

Geroni also mocked the political assassination of Charlie Kirk.

Watch:

Remember that Canadian woman who slapped a teenager in Point Pleasant for wearing politically themes clothing?

Yeah, this is her husband mocking the death of Charlie Kirk! What is wrong with these people!? https://t.co/T6ybzTymyR pic.twitter.com/kWa029klEM

The Gateway Pundit reported on a recent interview with Gustavo Gordillo is the co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) in New York City.

Speaking with Fox News host Martha MacCallum, DSA tried to clarify its position on abolishing key institutions in the United States, including eliminating the Senate and replacing the President and Supreme Court with “an executive and judiciary chosen by and subordinate to Congress.”

From DSA’s website:

For the working class to govern, we need a new political system. End political corruption and legalized bribery: get rid of lobbyists, dark money, and Citizens United, and publicly finance all elections. Abolish the Electoral College. Replace the President and Supreme Court with an executive and judiciary chosen by and subordinate to Congress.

During the discussion, Gordillo showed that he does not even understand the difference between the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives, nor does he understand the system of government he and his fellow radicals are so eager to destroy.

“The United States Senate is an undemocratic institution. It gives more representation to people in smaller states than to the 30 million people in California.”

The Yale graduate apparently thinks the founders created a democracy.  They did not and that was done with forethought.  We are a constitutional Republic.

But no matter what we are, the radicals just want us destroyed.

Several Democrat members of Congress were asked about the radical plans for dismantling the very fabric of America coming from some of their most vocal supporters and they were caught flat-footed.

“I don’t support that,” Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) said when confronted about the agenda.

“I haven’t read the proposal.”

Radical poster girl Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) dodged the question from Fox News Digital with the same flair she has used to ignore the millions stolen from taxpayers in her state by the Somali community.

Per Fox News:

“I’m not a member of the DSA, so I can’t comment on any documents that they put out,” Rep. Pete Aguilar, D-Calif., said.

The far-left plan comes as the socialist agenda is proving to be making its way into the mainstream Democratic party as several DSA members and self-proclaimed socialists have been beating out more moderate Democrats in many of this year’s primary elections.

Aguilar told Fox News Digital that he was “not at all” worried about the wave of far-left, socialist candidates complicating the Democratic party’s agenda.

“I look forward to working with all our colleagues who run as Democrats,” Aguilar said.

Emma Vigeland, a far-left reporter and co-host of The Majority Report With Sam Seder podcast and a proud DSA member, made waves recently with what she is willing to accept.

She shared that she has ‘no problem’ supporting a ‘secret Nazi’ as long as they vote according to her DSA views.
