Remember the early days after left-wing activist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) became the U.S. Representative for New York's 14th congressional district in 2019? The fawning so-called "mainstream" media, along with CNN and MSNBC, of course, hung on her every word.
At the height of AOC's popularity, she and the other original "Squad" members — Reps. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, and Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts — all but held Democrat Speaker Nancy Pelosi hostage to their radical positions.
Now, with AOC having accomplished virtually zero for her congressional district — in favor of racing to every TV camera and microphone she can find — her power among congressional Democrats has waned. Nevertheless, MSNBC trotted out the know-it-all congresswoman on Monday to wax idiotic about former President Donald Trump's remarkable rally at Madison Square Garden on Sunday night.
AOC went full-metal AOC right out of the shoot:
This was a hate rally. This was not just a presidential rally. This was also not just a campaign rally. I think it’s very important for people to understand that these are mini January 6 rallies. These are mini ‘Stop The Steal’ rallies.
AOC must not have watched the same rally I watched, beginning to end. I saw zero hatred at the rally. I understood there were several inappropriate T-shirts for sale, likely by a vendor; the entire rally was filled with far more "joy" than any of Kamala Harris' "Campaign of Joy" events have come even close to.
AOC continued, as one of the hosts repeatedly responded with "um-hmm" as she spewed.
These are rallies to prime an electorate into rejecting the results of an election that doesn't go the way that they want. Donald Trump and that entire cadre of people up on that stage ... do not respect the law of the United States of America.
And they either want to win this election or they are using rhetoric of taking it by force. That is what they mean and that's they're doing when they are inciting violence and hatred against Latinos; against black Americans; against American who don't have children.
Again, complete nonsense. There was no such rhetoric. Moreover, AOC failed to explain by what power Trump could "take (the election) by force."
But best of all, if Trump and his "cadre" incite violence against Latinos, why did a recent USA Today/Suffolk University poll taken among Hispanic voters find the former president with an 11-point lead at 49 percent, compared to Kamala Harris's 38 percent? (Spoiler: Illegal aliens continuing to surge into the country, for starters.)

Finally, AOC got to the "unhinged" part of her talking points, which, along with comparing Trump to Hitler and Mussolini, is big on the Democrat hit list.
We need to understand how unhinged this campaign has gotten. And the only reason that the rhetoric has gotten this far is precisely because they are trying to prime the kind of froth that led up to the Jan. 6 attack against the Capitol.
"Froth"? AOC's — ahem — intellectualism continues to astound me.
And by the way, Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, the only unhinged rhetoric related to the Trump MSG rally was spewed by the Democrat Party, including has-been Hillary Clinton, who proclaimed that Trump and rally attendees would be "reenacting" the infamous 1939 Nazi rally at MSG.

The danger to America, Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, remains the dangerous hate speech within your party.
NEW: MSNBC enlists AOC to desperately demagogue and propagandize the Trump MSG event:
