Ocasio Cortez Dance

What is the 'Green New Deal' proposal drafted by incoming Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez?

• Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez responded to the people who criticized an old video of her dancing - by posting a new video of her dancing.
• Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was being sworn in to Congress on Thursday, a video apparently intending to smear the young Democrat was being widely shared on Twitter. But attempts to bash the freshman congresswoman backfired after the clip, which shows a college-aged Ocasio-Cortez dancing gleefully, went viral.

Ocasio-Cortez has been calling for the creation of 'Green New Deal' legislation, which would eliminate much of the United States' fossil-fuel consumption. So far, Sens. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Cory Booker, D-N.J., and 40 House Democrats have said they support the proposal, but incoming House Democratic leadership has put it on pause for now.

WASHINGTON - Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's name has been on the mouths of many since her election, most recently because of a nearly decade-old video of her dancing as a student at Boston. Taking one person's part of a dance-video out of context seems an act far more compatible and consistent with 'Commie' government behavior mentioned in the clip than does Ocasio-Cortez's participation in a fun school video. Go, BU Terriers!!! And sincere congratulations to Rep Ocasio-Cortez on her election! An unearthed video purportedly showing Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY, dancing in a college-era video was shared by conservative Twitter accounts Wednesday as an attempt to discredit the newly.

An old video of now-Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez playfully recreating a dance scene from 'The Breakfast Club' was resurfaced anonymously on Twitter last week -- resulting in a slew of misleading stories claiming conservatives were outraged over it, despite virtually no supporting evidence.

The 2010 footage of Ocasio-Cortez dancing comes from her days at Boston University. It went viral, for sure. But The New York Times, GQ, Newsweek and Ocasio-Cortez, among others, were quick to falsely claim that conservatives were somehow upset by the harmless video.

'It caused a social media stir, with the mainstream media and liberals lining up to cheer it and condemn conservatives for being offended by it. The only problem: Conservatives were not actually offended by it,' Media Research Center's Clay Waters wrote.

The Times published a story headlined, 'Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Dancing Video Was Meant as a Smear, but It Backfired.' It doesn't feature a single example of anyone being offended with the exception of an anonymous Twitter account that first drew attention to the video saying it showed 'America's favorite commie know-it-all acting like the clueless nitwit she is.' However, the Times managed to find examples of Ocasio-Cortez supporters condemning conservatives for being critical of the video.

Waters called it the 'latest knee-jerk liberal mockery of conservatives,' who 'stand accused on absolutely no evidence of being offended by something.'

Conservative strategist Chris Barron told Fox News that the mainstream media is 'so desperate to make conservatives look bad that they will invent a controversy when there isn't one,' with the Ocasio-Cortez video the latest example.

'If you want to look up the very definition of fake news, look no further than the faux controversy over the AOC dancing video. Literally, every single conservative I saw comment on the video said it actually made her more likable, and yet our shameless mainstream media spends days pushing the narrative that conservatives attacked her,' Barron said. 'Must be nice being a liberal.'

Perhaps the most overblown example was published by Newsweek, which wrote that 'Conservatives mock Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for college dancing video, everyone else thinks it's adorable,' while not citing any 'conservatives' beyond the original anonymous Twitter account. Media watchdogs pounced on Newsweek for the misleading headline.

NowThis likewise posted a video claiming conservatives tried to 'shame' Ocasio-Cortez with the clip, but mostly cited tweets praising her cool dance moves -- with not much in the way of criticism beyond the original anonymous tweet.

The social media-savvy Ocasio-Cortez used the viral video as an opportunity to knock political rivals, tweeting 'I hear the GOP thinks women dancing are scandalous,' with footage of her dancing in the halls of Congress. While Ocasio-Cortez didn't provide examples of Republicans claiming dancing is 'scandalous,' her new video has been viewed nearly 20 million times.

The Daily Caller's Joe Simonson wrote that the dancing story 'served as another reminder of how desperate the media wishes to portray the GOP and its voters as something very different from what they truly are.'

A Alexandria ocasio cortez memes funny. recently rediscovered video featuring Democratic New York representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dancing has gone viral after being posted by a Twitter user on Tuesday.

In the video, which was made during Ocasio-Cortez's time as a student at Boston University, the politician and other students dance to Phoenix's undeniably catchy song, 'Lisztomania,' in the style of the epic group dancing scene from The Breakfast Club. The video appears to be inspired by a watershed remix video from 2009 that set clips from Brat Pack movies, including that memorable Breakfast Club scene, to 'Lisztomania,' which was then recreated for a widespread YouTube video and presumably, many others, including Ocasio-Cortez and her Boston University peers.

As might be expected the Internet had plenty of thoughts about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's dancing video and took to social media to sound off on the clip. While the Twitter user who shared the clip initially seemingly did so to 'expose' or shock Ocasio-Cortez and her supporters, her supporters were charmed by the dancing video.
