"Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez isn’t buying into big money politics.
The Bronx-born democratic socialist blasted U.S. campaign finance laws as “fundamentally broken” during a congressional hearing Wednesday, charging that the current state of political spending permits “bad guys” to “do all sorts of terrible things.”
Ocasio-Cortez, who has dominated headlines since she took office as the youngest woman ever to serve in Congress, took several indirect jabs at President Trump during the House Oversight Committee hearing on “ethics rules for the executive branch” and the role of money in politics.
“Let’s play a game,” the 29-year-old congresswoman opened, speaking before a panel of government watchdogs, including former White House ethics czar Walter Shaub. “Let’s say I’m a really, really bad guy, and let’s say I have some skeletons in my closet that I need to cover up so that I can get elected.”

Some of you guys are so mad because she made sense, it is comical. She highlighted issues in the government and rather than to disagree logically, you all steep to calling her sexist remarks and using the word "commie" like an insult. Very cute.
@FrankDrebinPoliceSquad Just say "I'm intimidated by a smart woman" and save yourself the typing that no one reads anyway.
@FrankDrebinPoliceSquad ahh so you only look at a women skin deep if she is pretty, thank you for letting us know.
@FrankDrebinPoliceSquad are you having fun being a mindless troll?
@FrankDrebinPoliceSquad "These computery things are NEVER going to take off!"
(Right-wingers like you, 40 years ago)
If only she was 35 years old! She is the future of the party!
Think of it like this, right now she's absorbing lots of knowledge about her position, making moves where she can, and keeping people on their toes. By 35 she's going to be over 9,000 (meme). It's better this way.
American politics intellectually and morally bankrupt.
Thats why they are afraid of her.
Yup
Us across the pond in first world countries are scratching our heads at what's simply common sense, ethics & accountability.
Lmfao.. First World????
@@trails7416 Yeh, us nations who have an indiscriminate, unspoken birthright to universal healthcare.
@@trails7416 Yeah, you know those places like Denmark, France, Germany, etc., which provides universal healthcare and free or heavily subsidized college education?
Just look at the comments I'm sorry to say that a decent number of my fellow Americans are stupid
A.O.C. is making enemies, and I wish I could afford to hire a 24/7 protection detail for her.
She is amazing.
I’m genuinely experiencing a happiness peak or something, haven’t felt like this in years maybe even a decade. Is... is that hope? I think it is.
Hope for humanity!❤
As always AOC laying down the law. She's been doing a great job highlighting the glaring issue of money in politics. I posted a video on her green new deal proposal. Insanely proud of her
She's amazing....look at how triggered people are. There are more of them watching tyt than us! Lol
@@kwilla1781 So true!
@@IAmisMaster You're a terrible troll. Try harder.
I love that woman.
Who doesn’t?

doctorino sixerino (((I don’t know)))
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a fraud. In fact, after she beat Crowley, she stopped criticizing the Palestinians being massacred by the Israelis saying she is not a "geopolitical expert", then she paid respects to war criminal John McCain to end up supporting Zionist Neocon Andrew Cuomo.
@@Augalv how much do you get paid to smear her? Is your head that far up your ass you can't see that you are a POS. I bet you dont actually give a shit about the Palestinians, but for having a chance to use a denigrated people to further your establishment bias. Show your face coward!
I find that I am spending less time watching and yelling at Trump's Twitter tirades, because I'm spending more time watching whatever AOC is doing. Life is a bit more positive and meaningful now. :-)
Look at those troll tears. Delicious. Trump promised to be against corruption... And we've seen nothing close to this kind of talk.
We need more of this talk... Every day.
@TheRetiredtrucker More tears... tasty. THank you.
I think the whole "Your tears are delicious" mentality is really wrong. Small-minded conservatives invented it, why emulate them? Progressives should rise above petty spite and malice.
@TheRetiredtrucker sorry Jethro... Ain't gonna happen.. but you can always dream.
@TheRetiredtrucker I just read that last line a couple of times... It's amazing how Trump cultists are even taking up his language and don't even realize it.
@TheRetiredtrucker and you're a Trump cultist speaking trumpese....
Cow farts Cortez... Is that comedy in your circles?
Warning Beware of the trolls posting here.
Who’s crying ? I was just observing
Such a badass
THIS is exactly why we need young, energetic, socially-minded reps in office!! GO GET 'EM, AOC!!!!
Trolls are out in force.
This shouldn't even be a partisan issue!
It isn't, both parties love the current system.
@@andrasbiro3007 lol, sad but true.
Just imagine 50 more of her in the House; 5 or 10 in the Senate. THAT is a start, and the only thing that will forego the need to burn mansions.
@Dragon1717 Or they prevail in the same way that the American revolutionaries did. Not the horse manure about Washington and his useless standing Army, but the REAL VICTORS of the First American Revolution, the farmers and rank-and-file citizens. They who ambushed countless British marches. They who sneaked in the dead of night, and destroyed artillery, burned ammo caches. The sniper in the tree with their rifled-musket, eliminating officers at their tent flaps.
And the WORST SCUM is he/she who would defend these vultures. The same who would happily send your child to die in the sand for one extra dollar. Or might that oligarch be you?
Oh great. Then we would be forced to live like a caveman because authoritarians want to save us from a lie - "global warming"
Bonus for Dems: the liberal tech companies wouldn't need to censor us when we can't use electricity.
Gee I hope all the illegal aliens that are "more American than I" want to live as a caveman...
And the GOP say we suck on the Govt. teat. The GOP don't even have to work and become millionaires. What happened to bootstraps?
Silly boot straps are for everyone else not the republicans. It's like abortion is bad until a republicans mistress gets pregnant.
Plenty of hater's out in the comment area .. must of got fat off of daddy's money or just paid trolls
Look. I know the left isn't the most educated group of people, but this comment is just absurd. Like it's so bad that you really should consider a hospital for mentally enslaved morons.
Even some republicans are saying she aint some dumb bartender now!
now just a dumb congress woman.
Love her!!! ❤❤❤❤
I'm not the damsel in distress
I'm not your girlfriend
Or the frightened princess
I'm not a little bird
Who needs your help to fly
Nope, I'm the bad guy
man we need a troll filter
Think of it this way: every single right-wing, hate-spewing troll is TERRIFIED of us. You're seeing a typical fear-threat response from them. So the more they post, the more successful we've become. They'll deny this, of course... but the simple fact is that they wouldn't even bother to show up here, otherwise. Bottom line: they feel threatened and afraid. _Excellent._
The yellow brick road of political corruption.
She’s brilliant
She's brilliant for a kindergartner maybe...lol
I personally love how she did this. She reminds me of Elizabeth Warren in moments like these... and she's only just getting started.
The Elizabeth Warren who virtue signals in front of the cameras about the bankers but has never drafted even one device to prosecute the bankers for their crimes? That Elizabeth Warren?
@@craigsips8677 yes, that Elizabeth Warren. Lol. I'm not referencing her policies or lack thereof, I'm referring to the Senate meetings I've seen and how she tears into the people she questions. THAT is what it reminds me of. Better?
Joshua Lefever Showboating in front of the camera is worthless. Judge people on their actions, not their words.
This was EPIC !!!!!!!
The shade started with "Which I'm sure half the room would agree with anyway". The tone and mischievous little smile on her face then should be enough to light up a comments section. She's including corporate Democrats as well as republicans, but goes on to mention the additional corrupt freedoms the president has compared to legislators.
USA needs people like her in politics. So many dumpsters with negative comments I wonder why?
they are shitting their pants scared that we have a rational adult saying facts to counter their lies and madness
Surprising how people who hate TYT and AOC would come to this network to watch these videos and leave angry comments.
@mark haas Bitch who, I'm gonna be thanking republicans for NOT giving me the stuff that basically every Democrat is running on like Med4All, Green New Deal, $15 min wage etc., tuition free public schools which are overwhelmingly supported by the American people? Or will I be thanking Republicans for giving the 1% more tax breaks and for deregulating industries to destroy the environment?
@mark haas No it's not. It's because you know TYT and AOC are correct and it terrifies you. So you have to go on here and try to discredit them. You know who doesn't have people trolling them? Conservative news...because the progressives know it's all bullshit and there's no need to discredit it.
Oh, how sad all the trolls are!!! Mechanically burping out some vaguely coherent critique of AOC not because they believe what they say but because they're paid to say it.
@acceptjesusorburn
Obviously it's in YOUR family.
AOC needs to start using CARTOON Drawings so the Rigties can understand. Thier Ignorance is Tiring.
I recommend puppets, they work great with my kids.🤷🏾♀️
She forgot to ask if she could start a "charity child foundation", cause, that's where the real money is...
they get discounted stocks and insider trading no problem
Alexandria pulling the curtains of corporate power.
Trump took no corperate donations, and donates his salary to charity.
Beat that bitch
@@starbattles1 True enough. I just wish he wasn't a 5 time draft dodger.
@@bonnieparker2429 He didn't dodge the draft. Stop believing the BS. My dad didn't get drafted because he was in college. There were exemptions. Now they act like there were not.
Nothing the left says about Trump is true. NOTHING.
Criminals will do anything to prevent getting caught. Corruption wants to stay corrupt. It's on both sides. Trump has to battle that. He didn't want to be president. He felt like he had to, because no one else could fix it. And he wants to fi things for his kids and grand kids. He himself could have just kept doing what he was doing and retire any time he wants. He donates his salary.
Here is another thing... The Vietnam war was a HUGE mistake, and thousands died needlessly. The veterans were NOT considered hero's when they returned. The population hated that war, and those who were in it. It was NOT in defense of our country like ww2 was. Trump was not old enough for ww2.
@@starbattles1 Your dog pic is adorable!
Glad you all are playing this in video after video because I can't hear it enough times. Gives me a great big grin every time I hear it. Gotta love love love AOC!
This is brilliant! Trump is a crook (but we knew that lol)
I love this woman.
Sounds like a flawed system to me.
How let’s point it out brother
Lets
@@bryce1132 she pointed it out already.
wow, what a fierce warrior princess. i love her...
So, 58 dislikes on this video. Hmmm, 😒. Well, I guess the Truth addressed in this video, doesn't sit well with their political opinions. Stay divided people, no need to get anything accomplished as a citizenry or anything. 👏
😉😊
The dislikes are being deleted. I smell a rat.
She's the best thing to happen to us all in a long time
Jarrod Kober to much soy latte?
It's funny to watch Right-wingers short circuit in TYT comments about her.
They know she's right and that most Conservatives agree about corruption but they just
"HATE LIBERALS SO MUCH!" Plus she reminds them of why they're adult-virgins.
It's almost like that cute, little video game inspired "NPC" meme was projection too.
👏
Gaslight much?
@Joe Public Yeah, like climate change, as it becomes more obvious that we are going into global cooling it will become increasingly difficult to sell that global warming BS. Like who wants to pay those assinine carbon taxes anyway?
It's not a conservative liberal debate you idiot, campaign finance applies to all politicians. You really think the conservatives are the only ones with donation issues?? Haha See Bill and Hillary Clinton! Its the fact that she is a complete incompetent fool and liberals are drinking the Koolaide like the little sheep they are.
Most of these comments are either bots or trolls.
Everyone I disagree with is a bot/troll
Nate Jones George Bush Mentallity "you are either with us, or with the terrorist"
ha ha ha I've been saying it for years
Shes right, but saying this will get her buried. Didn't Trump want to end this.... The whole, "drain that swamp, term limit for Congress, and financial reform"? What happened to that?
He's a conman.
So let's all say it. They can't kill us all.
@@kwilla1781 Eventually the majority of old white rasicts will die of old age. Progressives are the majority in America.
I'm center right but i agree we need to get lobbyists out of Congress. it is a shit show that the Supreme Court passed this about 10 years ago
Man I love that woman
I mistakenly read this title as: "I'm Going to Be the Bald Guy."
Which is why she destroyed the illusion that the system isn't broken with one punch.
Holy cow the number of bots..
Ahhhh yes, ye ol "everyone I disagree with is a bot" fallacy.
Lee Roberts if you actually click on most of those comments and see that the accounts are brand new you’ll realize they’re fake/bots. Hope that helps end your straw man confusion
@@justGSquared - Haha you mean like the account that posted this original comment? @No thankyou is a bot account LOL
She has to stop the cows from tooting, LMAO.
You are welcome to eat as many turd sandwiches as you want.
Love Her!!! lol
After defeating Crowley, AOC stopped criticizing the Palestinians being massacred by the Israelis saying she is not a "geopolitical expert", not to mention the fact that she paid respects to war criminal John McCain, and now she supports Zionist Neocon Andrew Cuomo. She is a coward
She's a wonderful goddess!
Champaign finance reform: only U.S. citizens, of the age of majority, may make political contributions not to exceed $250 per calendar year. No union, corporation, religous body, political action committee, foreign interests, or other entities which can not cast a vote may contribute to a political party or individual running for public office.
Imhotep, this would negate influence buying.
Russian Trolls Alert!
^^^ NPC ^^^
ORANGE MAN BAD
i love her so much! we need to find away around this morality shit with cloning so we can have alot more of her.
Warren-Sanders 2020!
Why not Tulsi?
Tulsi's the beserker vanguard, the beserkers rarely survive...she knows she's acting as the lightening rod for the progressives, she's a real trooper, she will take one for the team. maybe 2024...by then, AOC will be 35years old....@@Augalv
Didn't everyone know this already? It's like politics 101.
people around her all confused why she describe that as "being the bad guy". Hilarious.
I want her to investigate Republican receiving direct payments from Federal Government and ask a simply question, WHY?
She rocked!!
Just my opinion but I would like to see Trey Howdy run for the big office.
It’s Gowdy and any sane person wouldn’t want him anywhere near the power of the president let alone being him
Niiiiiiiiiiice!
But, but..., that's what most of us are here for...
My six year old grandson is smarter could do better job wish trump could say your fired
FREEDOM for every voter TO VOTE ON EVERYTHING government wants to do is the real change needed.
This is embarrassing!
Love her policies, but someone very rich will surely pay a hitman!?
👌🏾 👏🏾👏🏾
Can I hold a Fun Run and say it's for Greenpeace and keep the money for my campaign defrauding the people that entered? In other words can I lie and steal and break the law and get away with it because I'm in charge here!
Haha funny how you left out the part 15 minutes later where she gets schooled about these very ideas. When you splice a video you can even make AOC look like she is not a complete idiot. That "BIG" money also applies to the Teachers Union, Teamsters, UAW etc etc etc!
Are you seriously implying she's a complete idiot? Go get her job then and fix the country genius.
HAH what cuckservitives consider schooled and reality are vastly different things......
@@ZaxxonHK47 You must of misunderstood I didn't mean to imply she was an idiot,, I am not implying, "She really is an idiot!" Hope that clears that up! Thanks darling!
TYT and AOC are *too strong!*
I can't wait until she takes some money to buy herself some new shoes and has to backtrack all of this. I imagine it goes something like this: "But I'm not a bad guy, I'm a woman! So taking money isn't a problem"
She's alluding to trump, no?
why has TYT not talked about what NBC has been doing to tulsi?
She is the bad guy, because she took money from Apple inc. for her campaign. Last time I looked Apple is a major co.
So you agree taking money is bad then right?
@@BlaizeV No, I am just pointing out what a hypocrite she is. I have no problem with politicians receiving money out in the open, its the back door lobbyist I have a problem with.
She didn't take any corporate pac money. What are you talking about? Individuals working within a company and donating their own money is not the same thing as a corporation donating unlimited amounts of money through a super pac. Pac money in general for AOC was less than 4% of her campaign finances and that was through Democratic groups like unions and Justice Democrats itself. The majority of her money was from small donors and much of the rest were large donors limited to 2700 dollars. I get it if you don't like AOC's politics, but making stuff up about her is just ridiculous. She literally pledged not to take corporate pac money. It's quite literally the one and only litmus test for being a Justice Democrat.
@@Raizhen010 She took money from Apple inc. which is a corporation. Just google it. People running for office have to disclose their donors. Second, I didn't say there is anything wrong it. She did and I was just pointing out that if its so wrong why did she take money from a apple. She is saying one thing a doing another just like every other corrupt politician on the planet.
@@craftydoll4126 I literally looked it up. The donations from Apple Inc are individual donations. Again, she doesn't have a corporate super pac. That's just a fact. Taking lawfully limited money from individual employees of a company or the employer itself is not the same thing as unlimited super pac money. This is as ridiculous as when Ro Khanna gets criticism for taking donations from employees of Silicon Valley. No kidding he does. Many people who live in his district work in Silicon Valley. The only pac money she took was from Justice Democrats and Democratic groups like Move On and it was a tiny fraction of her overall funds. Again, all Justice Democrats are not allowed to have any corporate super pacs. It's a pledge they all take. Justice Democrats are the ones fighting corruption and not participating in that system of unlimited campaign financing through super pacs and instead relying on average people to donate all across the country.

Of course the full clip was not shown. Please go see the full clip. I dare you.
The full clip is amazing. She kicks ass.
can we start a chant LOOK UP THIERE LIES
Also, for the hard core Democrat. The news of Netflix purchasing the film "Breaking Down the Door" starring along with 2 or 3 other women, none other than Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for the tidy sum of Ten (10) Million dollars. I wonder if she were not a Congress woman if it would be as valuable? Maybe a dance video is next? Maybe a possible future investment in a "Cortez" tower? Sorry, it does seem hypocritical.
Eeh sure bub...
Green New Cow Farts Deal
I still don't like her, but she's right
When she becomes president, America will see a new golden age of economic prosperity.
Destroying the economy won't lead to economic prosperity. Quite the opposite.
Yeah! can't wait. AOC the new FDR.
Ryan B let the ones who aren’t creating wealth run the show? No thanks. I, like the rest of the American population, do not need to take other people money to be happy. I’ll work and earn my own money. I am easily within the top 1% earners on the planet, which is around $33K/yr. I am thankful to be an American and I’ll forge my own way in this world, you won’t find me reaching into someone else’s pocketbook.
Omg😱😱 4 million subscribers I hope one day I gonna get 4 million but I never gonna get 🙁😔
Bad girl* ftfy aoc
Go get 'em AOC!! And on that note, I wonder how far Senator Warren's anti-corruption bill has gotten since she proposed it.
Sandy:................More like The Village Idiot she is.
A lot of hate watching LMAO 😂 nothing more popular on right-wing conspiracy channels.
I’m really not looking forward to another 4 years of Trump, but at this rate I think we won’t have much of a choice.
Are you serious? Every democrat is a better choice. You're sounding like a bot.
This woman won't go away. 👍
She will, the Democrats will make sure of that ,and if she doesn't Republicans will keep winning the presidency.
She is too funny!
Well said fellow comrade
Does anyone know where these guys covered the new New York abortion law?
Covered up by not covering?
All over the place. If you can't find it, you're not trying.
Sounds like The Clintons and Obama's to me.
@xamarmm hello, so youre a ok with Obama (Dems) providing guns and $ to terrorists in Libya, Yemen and let's not forget Syria with the help of Marc Turi also Killary who is a proven racist lying murderer, but some how President Trump is the bad guy who wants to stop Democrap Infinite Wars, terrorism etc lol. Didn't Obama lie to the American people by saying 1.5% GDP is the norm and Trump will never get 3% GDP but what happened were at 4.1% growth lol. You're just mad the Republicans are still the freedom movement and the Democraps are still the racist slave owners who don't want change nor freedom correct.
what ever
Concerned that she may be a bully.
Notur Queen Obama baby
AOC doesn't know what satire is
@Mark Wick im referring to AOC taking people jokes seriously
Yawn
Is it too much for you trumptard?..
