right in front of a wapo reporter, even.

Quote:
Chakrabarti had an unexpected disclosure. “The interesting thing about the Green New Deal,” he said, “is it wasn’t originally a climate thing at all.” Ricketts greeted this startling notion with an attentive poker face. “Do you guys think of it as a climate thing?” Chakrabarti continued. “Because we really think of it as a how-do-you-change-the-entire-economy thing.”

Nationwide economic mobilization. Justice. Community. Ricketts kept laying down chords in Chakrabarti’s key
sorry for wapo link.

It’s socialism cloaked in a “green” veil.

I suspect AOC will be replacing this guy soon. He’s becoming loud, and toxic.

WOW! I expect that this comment will have major repercussions -- and, hopefully bad ones, for AOC and those in Congress who support her.

(I wonder if AOC approved that comment.)

lets do a reality check here, this is nothing new. even the UN rules on "climate change" are not about the climate, but rather redistribution of wealth, only at the level of the word rather than just the US.

^^^^This. I used to work with a bunch of Europeans a few decades ago when the "Green" movement and politicians began to take hold. They told me "GREEN MEANS RED" and they were right. Just a substitute for Communism, but that failed so they can't call I that.

Actually they complement each other. Both outlandish fools. Adds more richness to the AOC comedy show.
