A Memorial Day tribute video labeled Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez an “enemy of freedom,” and all hell has broken loose. Ocasio-Cortez played the victim card, the Washington Post called for people to be fired, and Sun-Maid raisins dropped their sponsorship of the “offending” baseball team. The Democrat presidential primary debates start in less than a month. We’ll look at who’s in, who’s out, and who’s upset.
The fallout from the Memorial Day video that I covered on Wednesday’s show is growing and getting more intense. Apparently, you can’t even display a picture of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and reference her as an “enemy of freedom” (which she is) without the left screaming and considering it “hate speech.”
Now, sponsors are leaving the team, and the Washington Post wants people to be fired, because “hate speech” like this can “incite violence.” Give me a break!
The Democrat presidential primary debates begin in a few weeks, and some of the candidates, won’t even make it to the first one. Check out today’s show for all the details.

Slap her like the PEST she is! Just MY opinion!
Sun Maid needs to pick them up again. She is the enemy of freedom. No doubt about it.
I just sent a nasty gram TO sun-maid telling them “since you feel speaking one’s mind is now hate speech, i guess you no longer want True American’s business, AS WE HONOR OUR RIGHT to free-speech.”
Excellent idea which I followed. I strongly suggest everyone do the same. Here is a copy of mine:
It is my understanding that you are pulling your sponsorship from the minor league baseball team ‘The Grizzlies’ for a video they played during the Memorial Day weekend game. I understand that as a private corporation you as the management team have an obligation to maximized stockholder wealth. That is a legal responsibility. Apparently you believe that pulling you sponsorship from this team will assist you in your management responsibilities. I think you are wrong. As a result of hearing that you have decided to enter into the fray of political correctness and the equating of free speech with something unacceptable I will no longer be buying your products. I will check the label each time to insure I am not supporting you or any of your affiliates.
here is the corporate e-mail address from Sun Maid’s web page. corporateaffairs@sunmaid.com
I copied and sent the message from purpleredmonster.
Well, i got the standard, canned “Thanks for contacting us, we will look into your concerns” reply email..
Democrats are trying to sell that they can say anything, but no one can say anything about them without being destroyed. I support free speech, especially the truth, so I support the ball team, not Socialist vacuum brain AOC.
Exactly. FREE speech for them, but not for us..
BUT they never care about the constitution, unless it suits them.
If you paint your enemy as “literal Hitler” then it’s OK to do anything to defeat them. Kill them in their sleep, poison them, wipe out their family.
The Left always goes immediately for demonizing their opponents. This gives them a blank check to say anything, do anything, cause anything, and still hold the moral high ground – at least in their own twisted opinion.
They never do a reality check to see if they’re actually on the “right side of history”, or even on the right side of any issue. They just arrogantly assume they’re 100% right, you’re 100% wrong, and that you’re a subhuman monster, so all is fair game.
They’re so clueless that they fail to see that they call conservatives Nazis* and then act exactly like Nazis themselves.
* So often that the word has lost all meaning.
In the real world, they’re wrong on every issue. Every last position or opinion they have is dead wrong every time. They got this way by refusing to learn. But it’s more convenient to demonize your opponent than to learn from him.
Interesting how Leftists can insult the President, show him decapitated in effigy, call for him to be sexually abused in jail and it hardly causes a stir, but show a picture of Airhead Of the Century with several communist leaders and all H3ll breaks loose – apologies fly, calls go out for people to be fired.
Boycott Sun Maid.
That’s because for decades, they are RIFE with double standards..
And yes, BOYCOTT sun-maid products!
When does AOC NOT play the victim card? That is the go-to strategy for her and those other two America-hating THINGS that SLITHERED into our House of Representatives during the 2018 mid-terms. NONE of them have ANY loyalty, whatsoever to this country, or to its Constitution, so their oath of office was a blatant LIE. Both the MUSLIMS have committed offenses that, if our laws were being enforced, could strip them of their citizenship and send them back to the Islamic HELLHOLES they crawled out of, or at the very LEAST, put them in JAIL and get them out of our Congress! And yet there they are, standing on the floor of our House of Representatives issuing HATEFUL, toxic statements against our ally, Israel, and against this country and its -[non-Muslim] people.
Modus operandi of AOC and her Muslim “sistahs” in the House: Make a public statement, Twitter, etc. that is completely VILE and unacceptable, and when you get pushback about it, play the victim card.
The really PATHETIC thing is when you have corporations that SHOULD have better sense buying into their VICTIM BS!
And to me the worst part, is you have so many media outlets WILLING TO LET THEM use the victim card..
I don’t respect AOC.She’s not only a dufus but mean spirited as well. Pelousy can keep this piece of mean. Maybe the damn-Dems will cease to be a party as well. May she make her way to -e– as well!
She doesn’t seem to do anything particularly well, including playing victim.
The truth? They don’t want the truth. They can’t handle the truth!
Yea. The truth is like kryptonite to them.
The only thing Ole Horseteeth is a victim of is her own stupidity.
You got that right but you left out bug eyed. As for the Sun Maid Raisins, I never liked them anyway so I’ll never give them any business. They could try giving a full box of prunes coated with Ex-Lax to AOC. Then she’d be too busy to seek out the spotlight.
The only way the democraps will win the presidency is to pick a 35 year old super model with no political history. They can then have her handler write every word she says, control all media contact, refuse to debate anyone, and put every democrap talking point into her mouth. Pick ophra winfrey as her running mate and refuse to debate Mike Pence. Once the dumbed down electorate puts her in office, they can hire Maduro to come here to be the shadow president. Wouldn’t that be the dream come true for the democraps?
“the Washington Post wants people to be fired, because “hate speech” like this can “incite violence.”
Well 1 thing we’ve learned is that WaPo knows “hate speech” they’ve been engaged in hate speech against our President for over 2 years. I wonder who they’ve fired.
And we’ve seen JUST HOW the leftist’s hate speech, has been reacted to.. All those libtard teachers, who screamed about killing trump, or conservatives. WHO WERE INCITING Violence.. nothing happened to them. Yea, a few got “Censured”. BUT did any get fired?? Not to my knowledge.
It appears it’s AOC’s time to pay the piper for her ill-reasoned statements. Not only does Nancy and Chuck want her gone, but so does the entire right wing of America. I would venture forth that her political days are numbered.
Fired for telling the TRUTH ? Really ?!?
Only in today’s upside down, libtard world, is that possible.
