  1. As Progressive Dem, Mrs Cortez needs to go. Most upper class New Yorkers do NOT support her.. 70%taxable income. what?? What stupid woman. ADIOS

    • +Chris Henson no buddy I ain’t gonna go anywhere. And there is nothing wrong with anything that I suggested unless you suffer from cognitive dissonance or an old rich prick.

    • Masaclasa Are you kidding me Donald Trump is 100% responsible for this how can you put it at anyone else’s feet

    • Masaclasa You say what a disgrace no matter what side you’re on like there is a discussion as to who is to blame there is only one person to blame Donald Trump you don’t have to say the name to know the facts.

    • I want to hear from someone who has risked everything to make millions of lives better.

      The fact she has fun as well, is simply the hallmark of a balanced human being.

    • When did being a bartender become a bad thing… Republicans need to try better or they’re going to put down every normal American occupation

    • +victoria elaine Do you know what a marginal tax rate is? If no, then you have nothing to add to this discussion.

      Also you are dumb because the top marginal tax rate in the US was 70% or above from 1936-1981 and they paid it. There’s also an argument to be made that rich people then will re-invest their money in their businesses (promoting job growth) instead of hoarding the money (bad for economy). They would do this to avoid directly paying taxes (but creating jobs or paying more will then give a % of those wages in as taxes).

    • +Collaide marginal tax rate marginal tax rate, Listen little one it doesnt matter if the scam is letting the middle class pay for marginal tax rate marginal tax rate. CORTEZ IS A SCAM ARTIST THE ONLY PERSON THAT WILL PAY FOR TAXES IS YOUR POOR BEHIND. IF I’M AN EVIL GREEDY BILLIONAIRE WHO HAS BILLIONS TO WAIST THEN I WOULD GET A BRAINLESS IDIOT LIKE CORTEZ TO PUNK THE MASSES. AND HAVE HER PUSH THE NEW GREEN DEAL SO I CAN MAKE UTILITY COMPANIES RICH AND AVERAGE JOE”S LIKE YOU AND I POORER. EVERY HEAR THE SAYING “YOU CANT GET A RICH MAN TO PART WITH HIS MONEY.”?

    • +Collaide most laws are crafty to benefit the wealthy and 9 times out of 10 the bills that are passed aren’t even read most of the crap they just vote on them and its done. If I’m Soros and I give most of my money to one party well you better believe every single day they are working hard to get His agenda done not yours. whats the saying “MONEY TALKS” So Soros will pick Cortez to run for Congress only to make him pay 70% in taxes. No evil greedy people aren’t in the habit of making themselves poorer. But they wont you to live off your own spit.

    • +victoria elaine Nice conspiracy theory. The entire GOP and half the Dems run on billionaire money not her

    • No he’s not, the turtles don’t even want him, whether he is one of them or not.

  2. Should people like Cardi B speak up? Ummm… As far as I know, she is an American who has a counting vote AND millions of followers on social media. She absolutely SHOULD use her voice and platform to encourage her fellow American citizens to exercise their right to protest.
