AOC By Any Other Name

By Rich Kozlovich

Let's start out with this foundational historical truth.  Communism and fascism are two sides of the same coin:  Socialism!  Socialism had its start with the French Revolution.  Marxism and all the other leftist "isms" are merely branches of a tree, with socialism as the root of that tree.   

This cartoon appeared in the article written by James Mullin on August 13, 2026.  Uncle Bernie’ and the woman who would be president noting there's no difference between being identified as a communist, a Democratic Socialist of America, or a National Socialist.  As he says:  What’s in a name? That which we call a communist by any other name would smell as foul.

 

When I read the babble these nitwits spew out, I can’t help but think of Macbeth and Shakespeare’s three witches with their incantation and witches’ brew.

"Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and cauldron bubble."  Eye of newt, toe of frog, wool of bat, tongue of dog, and lizard's leg. Root of hemlock dug in the dark, slips of yew, and a tiger's entrails.  Cool the mixture with baboon's blood to make the charm "firm and good.  

Their views and evil motivations are now being touted openly; views the "traditional" Democrat party held but hide behind a curtain of lies, twisted language, and deception like the Wizard of Oz, and they resent being exposed for who and what they are because they're now losing control of the Democrat party.  One of the comments that appears in the article from a reader is interesting.

People have adopted using “AOC” because of convenience to shorten her long name. I think of her as the Actress, who auditioned for the job, but is really just a social(ist) media influencer. Turkish born Cenk Uygur (Hasan Piker’s uncle) helped to launch the Actress’s career. They used her as the face of the Green New Deal, which brought the spotlight on the Actress.  As we have seen, she is basically an ignorant script reader and unable to discuss serious topics without a script. 

Like Biden playing the role of Grandpa, the Actress plays the role of the ingenue, the Bronx-born daughter of hardworking Puerto Ricans. Her role could be a musical production like West Side Story or a TV show called Sandy in New York City. I doubt her Hollywood-style star machine persona will play that well outside of NY. 

As for Hansan Piker:  If you have any doubts as to just how vile he is, try this.  He justifies Luigi Mangione's murder of  UnitedHealth CEO as a ‘social murder’, because, according to Piker, "the UnitedHealthcare CEO, was engaging in a tremendous amount of social murder,

Were you aware of Hansan Piker's uncle, Turkish born Cenk Uygur.  I wasn't and he's been in the news regularly with his outrageous anti-American, antisemitic, anti-western civilization hate filled rants.   Why don't we know that?  As another commenter noted: 

I never knew this about his uncle. I doubt 1 in a thousand know this. You need to run this up a very tall flagpole!!!. It suggests - what I've always feared - that we are seeing a very organized, very dark movement to bring Islamist communism to the US.

Recently she's been in the news for freezing her eggs to retain the option to become a "birthing person" in the future.  Well, I think this comment is worth repeating: 

She’s just keeping her options open for the future, when she is more mature, and emotionally prepared to have an abortion.

Her babbling in an attempt to distance herself from her own 'nonsense' won't work with a laugh, and "her utterances reinforced the notion that the Squad was little more than a joke." 

1. Climate change:  "We need to invent technology that has never even been invented yet.” 
2. Unemployment:  "I think the numbers that you just talked about is part of the problem, right? Because we look at these figures and we say, ‘Oh, unemployment is low, everything is fine, right?’ Well, unemployment is low because everyone has two jobs.” 
3. DSA goal:  We work our butts off to make sure that we take back all three chambers of Congress. 

•  Is ‘Woke 1’ really over? — Deseret News

 Beyond goofiness, watch as AOC get demolished in attempt to distance herself from her own 'nonsense.  ''Ms. Cortez cannot laugh this stuff off. She said it, and one way or another, she continues to say it because she believes it."  You can't laugh off these openly stated positions:

1. Defund the police. 
2. Abolish ICE 
3. Support for open borders and millions of illegal immigrants.
4. Closing down schools and businesses in support of the fraudulent COVID scare.
5. Claiming white supremacy as an embedded systemic American problem.
6. Pushing for racial justice projects.
7. Reparations to black Americans.
8. Decriminalizing prostitution.
9. The Green New Deal that would destroy the nation's economy.   
10. Supporting men who claim to be women to play in women's sports. 

One of the things that's incontestable historical fact:  All these leftists ever bring to people is "unbelievable physical and mental and psychological hardship and torment and loneliness and alcohol and drug addictions and suicides and family breakups, and just about everything else that these crazy left wingers try to put on our head." 

What about the 2028 general election?  There's a lot of talk of her becoming the Democrat nominee for President of the United States in 2028. "Several polls and prediction markets show Ocasio-Cortez as one of the leading contenders if she decides to run in the 2028", and she hadn't ruled that out.  One can only hope, but it gets even better.  Exclusive: Democrat strategist on why AOC won’t run for President — but Abdul El-Sayed will.  Imagine that if you will! 

Update:   

1. AOC is DOA Via DSA - The Democrats' and AOC's absurdity, deception, and insurrection are being exposed. We will remember. We will not forget!
2. AOC Is Unfit to Lead the Nation - Betting markets show Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY-14) as the frontrunner to snag the 2028 Democratic nomination for president of the United States. But AOC refuses to pay back her student loans, despite earning $173,000 a year as a member of Congress. That's a red flag that she's fiscally irresponsible and holds taxpayers in utter disdain.......

Update: 

Democratic Socialists of America Embroiled in ‘Civil War’ Over Future as AOC Is Slammed for ‘Consistent Pattern of Opportunism’ - The Democratic Party continues to struggle with internal issues and divisions that have fractured it beyond recognition as socialist candidates fight among each other while pushing out moderates entirely. There are currently three major issues facing Democrats that have created a civil war within a civil war.  The first is a lack of moderate voices. Any so-called moderates still left standing are moderates in name only, like James Talarico in Texas, Rob Sand in Iowa, or Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger, who ran down the middle but is governing her state like California.  The second issue is the party’s willingness to normalize socialism.  ......

Yessir, That Little Jimmy Talarico Knows How to Appeal to Texans

 By Rich Kozlovich 

On August second I published this piece, Is This The Best You Have? James Talarico, and as time passed, and more came out about him I kept making updates to show that little Jimmy Talarico really "knows" what Texans like and how to appeal to them, especially Christian Texans with a traditional bent.  At this point there are so many updates I thought it best to publish them separately as the controversies surrounding Talarico keeps mounting.  

The RNC Chairman defined Democrat candidates for the midterms as creeps and freaks, and I'm guessing.... just guessing mind you....... there just may be substantial number of Texans who feel that defines Talarico particularly.   Just a thought! 

Updates:   

• Texas Leftist Talarico Gains Two-Point Edge over Paxton in Senate Race - Talarico has been in the news for claiming Scripture requires the government to guarantee health coverage, insisting the Bible is “silent on abortion,” saying a bill banning “gender-affirming healthcare to trans children” was “Christofacsim,” and accusing Christianity of being the “most violent” religion that has done “more damage” to Islam, per Breitbart News. (My Take - This is Texas, and we're to believe Texans approve of this?  Another reason why I stopped believing in polls over 30 years ago. RK)
• Exclusive—RNC Chairman Joe Gruters: Creeps, Freaks, and Cousin-Kissers: The Democrats’ Midterm Ticket - In Texas, James Talarico may be the most alarming candidate in Democrats’ parade of horribles. This “trans kid lover” encouraged middle school students to read sexually explicit material, text him about it after dark, and campaigned with a surgeon who abused children. Republicans have Ken Paxton – a MAGA warrior who’s proven as state Attorney General that he will relentlessly defend Texas values against the Left’s open border and radical ideology.
• Talarico Refuses Questions After Report Finds He Voted Five Times Using Parents’ Address - Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico is refusing to answer questions about his residency and voting history after publicly demanding that Republican opponent Ken Paxton answer questions about allegations concerning his conduct......
• REPORT: James Talarico Headlined a Gay Pride Event Alongside an 11 YEAR-OLD Child Drag Queen - James Talarico, the bizarre Democrat running for U.S. Senate in Texas, reportedly headlined a gay pride event in Taylor, Texas that featured an 11 year-old drag queen. If you believe the liberal media, this person is leading in polls for this race against Republican Ken Paxton. How is that even possible? This story is very easy to believe because Talarico is on the record in multiple instances talking about how much he cherishes trans kids.The Washington Free Beacon has the story.....
• WATCH: James Talarico Brags About His Woke Church, Says They Have Harbored Illegal Aliens “Who Were Close to Being Deported” and Running From ICE - James Talarico, the far-left Presbyterian Democratic Senate candidate from Texas, once bragged about how progressive his church is and revealed that they harbored illegal aliens evading ICE in an unearthed interview.  During a June 2023 appearance on Texas Impact’s “Weekly Witness” show, Talarico was asked, “How do you use your faith to guide your policy principles?” “I mean, my faith is why I’m in politics,” Talarico said before boasting about how woke and secular his church has been for decades.  “Our church was really in active in LGBTQ rights in the 90s. We caught some attention by letting an atheist join our church in the 2000s,” he noted.......
•  WATCH: Talarico Says Banning ‘Gender-Affirming Health Care to Trans Children’ Is ‘Christofascism’ - Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico was caught on video describing a “Christofascism movement” as he criticized legislation restricting gender-affirming care for transgender minors and the state’s abortion law.
•  James Talarico’s church pushes transsexual ideology on kids -  At James Talarico's church, where he said in a sermon that the "trans community" needs "abortion care," they're pushing trans books on kids Among the books in the church library is “This Book Is Gay,” which lays out the “ins and outs of gay sex" for kids....
•  Democrat Pastors: Infiltrating Republican Pews For The 2026 Midterms - James Talarico, the Presbyterian seminarian running for Texas Senate, is the poster child for the strategy. He brandishes his faith credentials while twisting Scripture to bless every left-wing priority from “reproductive justice” to expansive welfare. His record shows exactly where the priorities lie: rainbow flags at church events, sanctuary policies for illegal immigrants, and silence on the biblical view of life and marriage. Mainline denominations that have already drifted far from historic Christian orthodoxy on these issues are now the perfect recruiting ground for Democratic campaigns. ..............This isn’t the first time the left has tried to co-opt religious language. Progressive “social gospel” efforts have been around for decades, and they’ve consistently failed to move the needle among the devout. Raphael Warnock’s success in Georgia is the exception that proves the rule ‒ it relied on heavy black church turnout in a state trending left, not a broad conversion of white evangelicals or traditional Catholics.

• Antifa Merchandise Distributed at James Talarico's Latest Campaign Rally - Merchandise promoting the left-wing terror group Antifa were given out for free at Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico’s latest rally, according to Current Revolt.   Some of the stickers and buttons read “Anti Fascist Social Club” and “Auntifa,” while others printed the word “Antifa” onto a graphic. Additional merchandise portrayed President Donald Trump as Marie Antoniette, the Queen Consort of France who was executed during the French Revolution, while another ominously read “He’s on the List.” A final sticker read “It’s Okay to Punch Nazis,” sparking reminders to the language used on Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson’s ammunition that conservatives have argued has been used to demonize right-wing Americans to justify violence.....
• John Cornyn Staffer Joins Democrat James Talarico’s Campaign - A longtime aide to Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) has joined Democrat James Talarico’s Senate campaign as he tries to defeat Republican nominee Ken Paxton in Texas......
• James Talarico Is Trying to Redefine Faith in Senate Campaign - An August 17 ABC News report speaks volumes about the Senate race in Texas. It's headline, “Some Democrats trying to reclaim the issue of faith from the Republican Party,” raises a number of questions about what happens at the intersection of religion and politics. The first question is obvious: when and why did Democrats abandon faith in the first place? But a deeper question, one that is increasingly prominent in the Texas Senate campaign, is whether Democrats are trying to reclaim faith or redefine it. .....
• This Star-Studded Progressive Event Featuring James Talarico and Kamala Harris Was a Complete Flop - The Democrat Party’s youth movement appears to be in complete shambles as the DemocracySummit 2026, what was slated to be a “a powerful day of organizing, learning, and civic renewal,” had absolutely abysmal attendance in Austin, Texas....Despite boasting a star-studded slate of progressive speakers like former Vice President Kamala Harris, Sens. Mark Kelly and Chris Murphy, Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, and Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin, the venue appeared to be completely empty.......
• James Talarico Rushes to the Defense of Convicted Murderer Karmelo Anthony - Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico is finally commenting on the case involving convicted-murderer Karmelo Anthony, and he’s siding with the killer.  Talarico joined the popular podcast and radio show The Breakfast Club, where he announced his belief that Anthony was found guilty for the murder of Austin Metcalf because of racial bias on the jury. “Right now we’ve got a system that doesn’t serve all Americans equally,” Talarico said. “We know that black Texans have not gotten the justice they deserve.”...... My Take -  So.... we now must assume the fact all the potential black jurors said they wouldn't find a black man guilty no matter the evidence apparently doesn't matter to Talarico?  Did I get that right?  RK
•  James Talarico: ‘God Is Not a Christian’ - “God is not a Christian,” declared Texas Senate hopeful James Talarico (D), in a recently unearthed sermon from October 22, 2023 at his home church, St. Andrew’s Presbyterian. Talarico’s self-assigned task was to condemn Christian nationalism, but he went about it by attacking Christianity in general. Especially when giving a critique, it’s always best to take a speaker’s comments in the fullest possible context. Talarico said:.....
• In Texas, Senate Democrat candidate James Talarico opposes voter ID - Are voters aware of how extreme this clown is?  This one, from 2021, came out yesterday:.......Talarico wants to enable voting fraud in Texas by banning voter ID.......
• James Talarico Ain’t Choosin’ Texas - The Democratic state lawmaker who says he wants to represent the Lone Star State in the U.S. Senate might be a Texan by birth, but he’s certainly not one by disposition. If he’s elected this fall, he will legislate more like the third senator from California than a delegate from Texas.
• ‘Just Perfect’! Guess Where James Talarico Is Taking His ‘Grassroots’ Campaign to Rake in Some Cash —Texas Senate candidate and newfound meat, truck, and Cracker Barrel aficionado James Talarico has been bragging about his grassroots campaign in The Lone Star State.  You see, Talarico is going to represent every day Texans and not out of state interests and the wealthy elite: ...........6 months ago we launched this grassroots campaign for the US Senate to bring working people together.........."Grassroots," eh? This month, Talarico, joined by Georgia's Jon Ossoff, will head to California to extract some money from some of their "grassroots" supporters in Los Angeles: ...
•  WATCH: James Talarico Denies Jesus Is the Only Way, Says Allah Leads to Same Truth - Democrat Texas Senate candidate James Talarico denied that Jesus Christ is the way to truth, saying Allah and other religious paths can lead people to the same divine truth............“I find that they’re all kind of equal pathways to truth. You know, that’s how I think, you know, I always think of all of the world’s faith traditions as like a circle with,” Talarico said. “That divine mystery of the universe in the middle. And we all have different names for that mystery.”.........

Yessir, that Jimmy Talarico really knows how to appeal to Texans, and it's being claimed he's ahead in the polls against his Republican opponent Ken Paxton, who also has issues, but remains popular in Texas.  Does anyone besides me find that just a little bit strange?  Or perhaps we just can't trust polls?  

Is This the Best You Have? Francesca Hong

By Rich Kozlovich

 

As I watch the circus of politics unfold I really have to wonder it anyone has any idea about what they're doing?  In Wisconsin the person who appears to be far ahead in the polls as the Democrat candidate for governor is far a left politician and a "deep red socialist",  Francesca Hong, who has been diagnosed as being mentally ill, and who thinks we should cancel Thanksgiving, and abolish the police.  When interviewed she babbles incoherently much like Kamala Harris, and it appears she's going to be the Democrat's choice for Governor?  Imagine that! 

• CNN’s Bash to Francesca Hong: You’re Not Giving Clear Answer on Defund the Police
• Dana Perino Corners Socialist Francesca Hong on Her Vow to Abolish the Police  

Andrea Widburg posted this article,  Wisconsin’s Francesca Hong: Too mentally fragile to become governor? saying, "It’s not just that she gets anxiety attacks from “old white people.” It’s also that she has a history of serious mental illness." Andrea then went on to list her priorities: 

1. Free school breakfasts and lunches for all students.
2. Paid family and medical leave.
3. Increased state funding for public schools and special education.
4. A higher minimum wage.
5. Tenant and affordable-housing protections.
6. Greater taxation of high earners and large corporations.
7. Immigration legislation limiting cooperation between state or local institutions and federal immigration enforcement.
8. A moratorium on major data-center construction until Wisconsin adopts stronger protections for its electric grid, water supply, and farmland.
9. A state-owned public bank

Her gubernatorial platform is similarly socialist:

1. Universal or heavily subsidized child care.
2. Universal paid family and medical leave.
3. Universal school meals.
4. A state role in reducing health-care costs and moving toward universal coverage.
5. A $20-per-hour minimum wage.
6. More state funding for schools and municipalities, reducing dependence on local property-tax referendums.
7. A new income-tax bracket for millionaires and higher taxes on wealthy individuals and some businesses.
8. Publicly owned or publicly operated services, including a state public bank

Ultimately, the state treasury is Hong’s piggy bank and the state’s earners are her indentured servants. She’s also in the “Israel is a genocidal nation” crowd, wants to end ICE and data centers, and used to claim that police needed defunding, although she’s trying to change her tune on that one.

While for normals that seems way over the top, but the fact is, there's something seriously wrong with the people of Wisconsin.  One radical judge vows to shield illegals from ICE agents.  The current Governor Tony Evers, wants to help illegal aliens to avoid ICE agents, and even issued guidelines to state employees to shield illegal aliens from ICE agents.  When you see what's going on in Wisconsin, it seems Hong is in harmony with the people of Wisconsin, which seem to be mentally disturbed radical socialists who may very well choose her as their next governor.  

• "Lt. Gov. Sara Rodriguez, long viewed as a front-runner, dropped out of the race July 17 after reports that her campaign mishandled finances," the report said. "One day later, Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley reentered the contest after suspending his campaign July 8.".........
•  A Socialist for Wisconsin? - Yesterday there was an earthquake of sorts in Wisconsin. Mandela Barnes, who was considered the early favorite for the Democratic nomination for governor, dropped out of the race. Barnes is pretty far left, but he is a former lieutenant governor who ran a competitive Senate race against Ron Johnson in 2022. In the 2024 version of the Democratic Party, however, he was left in the dust by socialist Francesca Hong......

She's so bad that even radical Governor Tony Evers is trying stop her, but they have no replacement as yet, and you can't beat somebody with nobody.  John Hinderaker calls her the Train Wreck In Wisconsin saying:

Hong is a far-leftist who, as noted in the earlier post, has called for Thanksgiving to be canceled and has advocated abolishing the Senate. But more information about her continues to come out. She was sued to recover defaulted credit card debt just a couple of months ago.......Who votes in Democratic primaries? A lot of financially irresponsible people with histories of mental illness who like socialism and hate Thanksgiving. 

His conclusion is that "Wisconsin’s governorship could be an easy pickup for Republicans in November."  So, who's the most likely Republican candidate?  U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany, who is a solid Trump supporter, which some claim makes him as extreme as Hong, and in Wisconsin that may be a reality.

Final thought.  If Democrat claims about their voters being smarter than Republican voters were true, then why is it they're not smart enough to get an I.D?  

Update:    

1. Francesca Hong Showboats (Again) With Hasan Piker As Democrat Panic in Wisconsin Intensifies.  Republican candidate Tom Tiffany said in a statement: “Francesca Hong choosing to campaign with individuals who said America ‘deserved 9/11,’ called communism the ‘honorable end goal,’ and believe capitalists should be killed is certainly a choice.”
2. Francesca Hong extreme mental illness at 18, she might be governor.

Update:

1. Francesca Hong Begs for an End to Madison's Autonomous Zone - Shortly after career criminal Cory Ruiz was shot by Madison, Wisconsin, police after he pulled a knife on officers, Democratic Socialist Francesca Hong got up in front of a crowd and called it an "execution." That prompted the start of a Madison "autonomous zone" where police and first responders weren't allowed to go, where businesses and homeowners were held hostage by left-wing activists, and where the city of Madison provided material support in the form of city vehicles to reinforce the walls. ......It's all a bad look for Hong's campaign, of course, and now she knows it. She's calling for an end to the autonomous zone..............
2. Dem Wisconsin Guv Candidate Francesca Hong Sez She Left Restaurant Because ‘Too Many Old White People’ - Francesca Hong, current Democrat gubernatorial candidate in the state of Wisconsin, said she once left a Culver’s fast food restaurant after she nearly experienced an “anxiety attack” due to “too many old white people.” (My Take - Yessir, she really knows how to appeal to the public, and who could want a better governor than one who has anxiety attacks when surrounded by old white people.  Right?    And political analysts insist Republican Tom Tiffany is the one who's radical because of his close ties with Trump.  RK)
3. Bipolar Socialist Immigrant Explains She’ll Be Great Governor Because She’s a Failed Chef - DSA Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Francesca Hong, who had once been institutionalized, is a bipolar socialist immigrant, and makes Graham Platner, seem nice and well adjusted, had once tweeted that Thanksgiving should be canceled because it was racist.......

Update:  

1. Bernie Sanders Declines to Endorse Francesca Hong - (Editor's Note:  Bernie sidestepped avoiding supporting her by  claiming he's not well enough aware of Hong.  Since when has ignorance ever been a factor in his positions? But, Bernie is like Fauci, he just loves the big time public image and being the media's go to guy.  RK) 

 Update:

1. Meet Francesca Hong, the Most Insane Democrat Running in 2026 (Literally) - Tuesday on “The Alex Marlow Show,” Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow talked about Wisconsin....... Marlow said, “She has turned the race for governor of Wisconsin on its head. and it’s because her public pronouncements are the type of things the Democrats used to only say in private.”.....
2. Maher: ‘Don’t Believe’ Hong Saying She’s Now OK with Thanksgiving, ‘Couldn’t Make a Character Like This Up’ - During his opening monologue on Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher stated that he doesn’t believe Democratic Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Francesca Hong’s renunciation of her prior denunciation of Thanksgiving and said, “I don’t believe you people who renounce things. We know what you said. You mean it, live by it.”....

Is This The Best You Have? James Talarico

By Rich Kozlovich

In Texas the Democrats keep working to turn the state blue with their choices for Congress.  However, when the two who were running, James Talarico and crazy Jasmine Crockett, who apparently has a serious issue with blacks who support Trump, and inexplicably appears beloved by the black community, ya just gotta wonder what's wrong with their party.  Is this really the best they have?  

Time and truth are on the same side, but they're not on Talarico's side.  While he claims to be an ardent Christian he says everything he needed to know about Christianity he learned from Muslim mystics.

• Talarico Credits “Islamic Mystics” for Influencing His Christian Beliefs

He also claims the Bible requires the passage of a government-run healthcare system, which believe it or not was a position of former Governor of Ohio John Kasich, who claimed he could define conservatism as he saw fit.   Like Talarico, he was a disgrace also.  And just like every other Democrat running, he's an ignoramus regarding economics.  It's now being claimed he may have violated Texas election law regarding his official residence to overcome redistricting while serving in the Texas legislature.  His shares his only bank account with his mother and believes God is nonbinary.

•  Mama’s Boy Talarico Appears to Have Broken Texas Election Law

And finally, it turns out one of his largest financial backers was tied into Epstein:

• It’s been a tough week for Democrat U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico on the sexual abuse front, who is now battling with the public learning that his largest financial backer is listed in the Epstein files, is facing condemnation from an abuse victim’s family for lying, and is refusing to condemn a political ally who consorts with a sexual predator.

Yessir, he really knows how to appeal to Texans.  

Why do people think that way they do?  The truth of the matter is people hate having to think because thinking is hard work, and the conclusions can be unpleasant.

They say “please” and “thank you,” hold doors for the elderly, and are polite to a fault. They are nice because the Devil usually wears a smiling face, and because Lucifer was the most beautiful of the fallen angels.......
