Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez joined climate change protesters at Nancy Pelosi’s office earlier this week, and the likely next Speaker of the House praised them. That seems to have emboldened the Representative-Elect from New York, who is now getting her fear-mongering game on:
Thank you, @NancyPelosi.
We have 10 years left to plan and implement a Green New Deal before cataclysmic climate disaster.
Reinstating the Select Committee is exactly what we need to do. https://t.co/Uy5BnrLZcR

Serving up more “10 years or else” warnings is the surest way to generate plenty of eye rolls these days.
