OOOHHHH BABY! WHAT are you tryin to do to me here Cohen?, you know she's a married woman for Pete's sake! Thou shall not covet thy neighbour's wife, you know! That open top there ain't helpin any either let me tell ya! ✌💖
Always good to hear from future Speaker Of The House, Senator and President 'THE' One...'THE' ONLY...AOC! Love the content, BTC but DO wish you too would run for office Sir! Vote Blue and Keep America 💙Blue💙 Folks!🇺🇸
what does she think happens in a multi-party democracy? Just cause it doesn't happen in America doesn't mean that people don't ever vote for a different party's leader...
Not much for intellect from the republicans. Rep. Gomert asked whether a government agency could look onto changing the orbit of the moon to work against climate change.
As a foreigner without ability to affect the US political process despite beeing and going to be very much affected by it through how it affects my US citizen friends as well as myself through geopolitical domino effects, AOC is definitely someone I want to see gaining more influence without compromising her values or dignity.
Thank you AOC for all that you do to protect citizens rights and freedoms. It’s good to know there are sane people such as yourself in government. Keep fighting the good fight for us.
What a competent, articulate, intelligent and wise congresswoman Cortez is! She is a powerhouse for our country and it's well being as well as for democrat's and the world. You go girl! Bring it on! Thank you BTC for being the voice of reason for Democracy! You are an Incredible human! Thank you!!!
Future President.This young lady is a great human being. She believes in ethics. She doing her job for the American people and democracy. I can only hope she stays strong on her believes.
AOC gives me TOTAL HOPE in government and public servants. I hope young people see her, learn from her and step up to replace the old guard in our Presidency, the senate and all lower houses. I love her LOVE of our Democracy
Smart, Patriotic and holding the line against the crazies. Need more people like her on both sides. The current GOP circus of hate and corruption needs to be reset. Katie Porter too.
Bless her heart!!! ❤❤❤ We need more like her in Washington!!! She’s smart and you can tell she really gives a damn! And yes PLEASE keep fighting for Universal Healthcare For ALL OF US!!!! Thank you Ms. Cortez!!!❤
AOC, Fani Willis, Jasmine Crocket, and Tish James are my heroes! Strong women of exceptional intelligence - as a woman I'm so proud of them. Keep bringing Trump and his MAGA Foot Soldiers to their knees Ladies! We need to regain sanity in our Nation. 🇺🇸💙🌊💙🇺🇸
It's absolutely unreal to think that those on the right have ever referred to this brilliant woman as "stupid" or an "idiot". She is so unbelievably wise and smart beyond her years.
Yep, she's still learning the ropes of collective lobbying and representative politics, but she has a knack for getting to the heart of the matter and setting the moral compass. She has so much character. I hope she has a long and successful career in politics. Massive advocate.
Just imagine the toxic media that conservatives are consuming to come to that conclusion. Just like the “Joe Biden can’t speak a full sentence” BS, it takes 5 seconds on RU-vid to find recent examples that refute conservative media, but their cognitive bias has already put up a wall to prevent reality from reaching their brain.
100%. As soon as I hear one of them call her an idiot, I know for sure that I can disregard everything else they say. They clearly have no idea about what they are saying
I admire AOC for telling it just like it is and that’s the truth, Mitch McConnell, Bill Barr let Donald Trump off the hook if they had impeach him we wouldn’t have these problems
Representative Ocasio-Cortez is an intelligent, informed and focused young person of a generation that understands the world and US does evolve and must engage and perhaps change/adapt to a different time. It’s promising to see someone who is aware and thoughtful in their ideas and perspective. Kudos AOC and the like.
Shame she's not allowed to run for President due to "age restrcitions". Yet Trump and Biden can...... Imagine her in a debate against Trump, she'd run rings around him!
When do we get to hear the 2 intelligent people your talking abiut? Libs(STATISTS). Alex Epstein 's "FOSSIL FUTURE" on sale now. The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels. HUMAN FLOURISHING
Wow, blown away by this interview! I'd expect that AOC may be a Vice Presidential Candidate in the future, or ... I'd vote for her! Thank you Brian Tyler Cohen for this opportunity to hear AOC speak for Democracy!
Gotta love AOC! These young brillant minds will not only save our country but they will make it better than it’s ever been! They give me hope and inspiration!
It is hard to imagine that there actually is such a lovely, authentic person as AOC. One can clearly see why Republicans are so uncomfortable and cynical about her, refusing to believe that a person can be that genuine, let's hope she never stumbles and should she do so, may we be there to help her up and support her because she is definitely well worth it!
Imagine a Congress with four hundred plain spoken, every day Americans like her doing the work of the people daily. It would almost be like School House Rocks with bills leading to laws signed by the president and making our lives better. Thank you young lady for your service. We need more like you. Ones who take that oath seriously.
Of course she's right. But there's a part of me that would love to see Trump be the speaker--for like two days--just so she and other members of Congress could be (figuratively) bitch-slapping Trump at every turn, simply because he wouldn't have the foggiest idea of what the job of Speaker of the House involves.
Fake politician and getting rich with Hunter and Joe. U can't even fight crime in New York. Rigged system. Illegals coming in and waving their country flag on America soil. Future voters for AOC. America is now Latina State of USA, so change the America flag. AOC.
I admire AOC too. Sadly, all the reasons we both admire AOC as a woman and as a politician and a true supporter of Democracy are the *exact* reasons why fascist members of the GOP focus their hatred upon her.
Dear Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, As a lifelong resident of the great state of New York (I was born and raised in the Rochester, NY area) I want to personally say thank you for all of the amazing representation you provide for the people of the "Empire State" - I am grateful for all of your hard work, the long hours that you invest as a member of the House of Representatives, and for the unwavering amount of courage you display - as you continue to fight for the PEOPLE of NY by standing up to those in the "Other Party" (without naming any names lol) who wouldn't hesitate to vote for massive cuts to the Social Programs that so many have had to depend on at one point or another; especially if it meant lining their corrupt pockets with "donations" from their favorite "Special Interest Groups," and Corporate "Lobbyists" - We need more people like you in government! Thank you! Mr. Cohen, Thank you for your dedication to your platform here - and for your professionalism and integrity; you're a rockstar in the world of Independent Journalism!
I'm so grateful for AOC's voice in Congress! As a young woman, her influence is solely for the greater good. I'm also really impressed with this series of interviews that Brian has been doing with members of Congress. The content is excellent!
I remember my little sister starting to run across the nursery, slipping on a soft toy, landing hard and saying reproachfully to me "You should have looked where I was going!". She was I think about 3 at the time. Fortunately, she grew up. Why do so many people just... not?
As a Brit living in the UK, I had never heard of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. After watching this video I am seriously impressed by the sheer articulate clarity in which she presents her argument. Her analysis of Trumpism and Right Wingism that is gripping many countries is very insightful. I hope that she is just at the very beginning of a long and successful political career.
Check out the negative and ridiculous things that Republicans, especially the "Freedom Caucus." And they have such stellar women as Taylor-Greene and Boebert, not to mention Mace.
What did we do to deserve AOC? She gives me hope and wish we had more people like her leading this country. One day I hope we can call her Madam President ❤
I remember AOC's first term the Republicans were so misogynistic poking fun because it was hard for her to find an apartment she could afford and trying to throw shade on what she was wearing talking about how could she afford some expensive name brand jacket, I mean for real, did they think someone might have given it to her as a gift while she was campaigning or even maybe loaned it to her. I have some nice expensive name brands that I only wear on special or certain occasions
Absolutely ! Getting to the point is BTC's speciality and you could see AOC really enjoyed that aspect of the interview, she was happy that there was no hidden agenda or misdirection too and that made the interview flawless ! They clearly enjoyed talking to each other on the same level !
As an Australian it is so hopeful to listen to people like AOC, Katie Porter, Jamie Raskin, Buttegieg and so many other democrats who speak with intelligence. They give us hope that the US will be saved from becoming an Autocracy…. 🙏💙🇦🇺 Thank you BTC, you are an excellent interviewer.
And for a mention, Senator Whitehouse who does so much investigive work on the big scene and the work to make the Supreme Court take account of their over usage of Millionaires money.
I've seen righties like you ask that same question (about various Dems) for over a decade and they NEVER accept anything but more lies and hatred.@@veggiechowder8877
Wonderful to see and hear Representative Cortez on your show. She's is the REAL deal and I am happy she is with you today !! If you are serious and listen to this interview completely you will plainly see that Rep. Cortez is up to date with her facts and she takes her job, her work to represent not only her constituents but the country . She is obviously someone we are proud to have in the Democratic party and I see nothing but good things in her future . VOTE 🔵 BLUE EVERYTIME !!
It's incredibly ironic how the Republicans, the party of personal responsibility, constantly turned up at the Democrat's doors and went, "I set my own house on fire. Now you have to put it out!"
AOC and Katie Porter give me hope. Smart articulate,well prepared and informed. Good Democrat elected women. Far from the indecent,uneducated and just embarrassing GOP representatives.
Every time AOC says anything she amazes me with how clear her messaging is, how down-to-earth and logical her reasoning is Her advice on what Democrats should do in the coming election campaign is so plain and dead right. She's one of the few in Congress who gets her point across every time, and doesnt waste her breath confusing people.
It's wild how the right bashes her with their trolls, they claim they "want to drain the swamp", that's preciely what A.O.C is promoting IF THEY WOULD LISTEN.🤯
If you are in this thread still saying things like ("Are you crazy "), then you don't care about the country or world! It's not a sport or a religious team thing but a human thing!
She has matured into a well spoken representative. MTG and Boebert should pay attention. I know that's not going to happen but, I try to be positive. ✌️🇺🇸
Congress should be required to be honest, and always tell the truth. I’m so sick of politicians lying to us all. AOC and Katie Porter are the best. AOC is so much classier than 99% of Congress.
Fake politician. Ask Amazon company. Fight crime in New York. Double standard. Bribery scheme, ask Joe. Illegals coming in and waving their country flag on America soil. Future voters for AOC. America is now Latina State of USA. So give them free money. Rigged system.
I live in the United Kingdom. I would be happy to have AOC as our Prime Minister. One of the most eloquent, intelligent and engaging politicians i have heard a long time.
Check out Jamie Raskin if you haven't already. Rational politics in the US isn't dead! Come on US. Be what you were when we all looked up to Ike and Truman!
AOC is wonderful speaker and she is not scared and does not back down. She is very intelligent. It is wonderful as a Democrat to have her fighting for our rights. Thank you BTC for having this wonderful interview
It might be sooner than expected, AOC for President in 2024 or 2028. You have to be 35 to run for President of the United States. She is 34. DOB 10/13/1989. She will be qualified to run for POTUS in the next election in November 2024.
I'd like to see her become a Senator, preferably after changing her home address so she can become one of the two new Senators from the great state of Puerto Rico.
It says SO MUCH about the soul of the Democratic party that this wonderful young woman is right there at the heart of it. Her integrity and vision absolutely SOAR.
We need to keep her in Congress for a while. After being Prez would she go back to being a Senator or Representative? We got to keep her around, we need more smart, caring ones in office. Vote 💙 everyone.
I enjoy listening to AOC. She is articulate, educated, knowledgeable, and clearly believes is SERVING the country. Too few bubblicans demonstrate those qualities.
Fake politician. Making millions of dollars with Hunter and Joe. Rigged system. U can't even fight crime in New York. Illegals coming in and waving their country flag on America soil. America is now Latina State of USA. Future voters for AOC. So give them free money. Rigged election
Listening to intelligent, articulate conversation is so satisfying. Especially these days when most people just talk to fill a time slot and do their best to NOT SAY anything that might be controversial. Thank you both for a glimmer of hope in these dark days.
