The question is always: economic prosperity for whom?
AOC is such a gem! This is a representative that is definitely for The People.
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Yes, she claims to be for the people and stands against corporate greed and the politicians that benefit. Yet, she is supporting Biden who is as corporate democrat as they come.
Thank you for representing the American people! So done with profit over people!!
She’s supporting Biden to stay in the race. He is a corporate democrat as they come. AOC is simply good at telling us what we want to hear.
@@ianalan4367you are dead wrong! She is supporting him because he has done more progressive policies than any other democrat. Don’t try to knock her, plus she knew he was the nominee and do not want for the orange mango to have a reason to take it to court when he does not win.
“Oh God,” AOC said. “In any other country, Joe Biden and I would not be in the same party, but in America, we are.”
“I will be damned if the same politicians who refused to act then are going to try to come back today and say we need to find a middle-of-the-road approach to save our lives. That is too much for me,” Ocasio-Cortez said, after Reuters had reported that Biden was crafting a “middle ground approach” to combating the global threat.
Health of a nation is the wealth of a nation.
Right!!! There’s plenty of profit for people to not have to struggle.
Thank you, AOC, for reminding all of your committee members who they are SERVING!!!
Whenever I see AOC talking and hearing her arguments, I cannot help thinking how much of a role model for politicians she is. If all politicians in the world would be like her, the world would be an incredibly better place. Keep up the good work. I am an observer from Austria.
mick-berry5331 - Like all politicians over here she says one thing but does another. She denounces corporate politics but supports Biden staying in the race who is as corporate democrat as they come. AOC is just another wheel in the machine.
Who knows how much she inspires people both politicians and voters.
😂😂😂
👍💯 ,💡👸⚘️📜🇺🇸🏆💙
AOC, a real PATRIOIC 😮
Thank you, AOC, for leading by example and having the balls to fight for our country.
Im a big fan ❤ God Bless you.
If you honestly knew what she promised and what she gave wake up to the kick back queen of the Bronx
@@jojohns1949Well young account with no content she won her last election overwhelmingly for a reason,
Keep trying.
@@jojohns1949 SUCH AS? Documented?
@@alinaitzal1173 AOC promise 15 dollar an hour wage M4A student loan forgiveness A UBI right to union in all 50 states GO BACK TO 2018 watch her
@@jojohns1949Bring your receipts or take a seat!
This was so good to watch! Helping lift my heart, knowing there are still those that are pushing back and standing up for the American people! AOC looks like future President material. She's earned my vote several times over 💙
Wow 🤯. That was POWERFUL. It’s no wonder why those who serve corporations over the people; the few idle rich 🤑 lording over the many working poor; fear 😧 and loathe this phenomenal orator. I ain’t woke, but she’s convincing on many issues.
3M has spent decades covering up PFAS in the water, and 3M hired me as a tech aide for $14.50 an hour and wasted my time. When police involuntary hospitalized me and charged me $5500 I think senior scientists at 3M and DuPont should have paid for it.
Telling it like it is!
💙🇺🇸 2024 and AOC is always appreciated, she defends America 😊
Under CONServative rule, pursuit of happiness does not include clean air or clean water.
Does seem that way.
I love AOC
This is so refreshing
Love AOC! She will be president one day! 🥹🇺🇸💙
America would be better off for sure! This is a powerful speech. AOC represents the people. I'd vote for her 💙
Can Harris not ask her to be the vice president?
@@MichelleSmith-gt1pyno she is not eligible to be president and therefore cannot be vice president. Too young, must be 35 years old.
I love AOC!🇺🇸💙
She is absolutely beautiful!!
Keep fighting!!!
I worked for a company that dumped waste in a ditch beside the R.R. track . The city warned them about it so they started pouring it into the sewer .
A woman who actually works for the people 💙💙💙💙💙💙
Economic profits - Who reaps the benefits ? ? ?
Not us!
CEO
The fat cats:so-called captains of industry and supporters of project 2025
EXCELLENT, AOC! KEEP UP YOUR GOOD WORK
Republicans forget she studied economics in Boston University
I think *_she_* forgets she studied economics in Boston University. Her "Green New Deal" agenda lacked any real planning, and every economist who's looked at it has said it's unfeasible.
Preach!
AOC for President 🇵🇷🇺🇸
Corporations torching the world for their fun, but it’s not their planet.We share using this big beautiful planet, We must take care of it, and learn new ways to help better.🌍🌎🌏💗👍😁
I love her!
PEOPLE OVER PROFIT
Alllways
Ty Now This Impact !
True AOC
Fact
Great. ms. aoc can talk to her House colleagues, Democrats and Republicans, who take hundreds of millions from corporations, and vote how they want
❤
We the people think AOC for calling out her peers who wish to protect those multi-billion-dollar companies they own stock in.
Yes and profits before people not just with health. It’s not new, it’s the nature of it which has transitioned/lived out of it sweet spot/golden era into intoxication, the drug being money.
💙🔥💙🔥💙🔥💙
I love AOC! She is intelligent, eloquent, fights for the people - and as a bonus, she is also hot!
Keep spreading the truth!!!
Thanks NY
Thank you, AOC!
Keeping it real
AOC always delivers.
Glyphosate (Roundup) is in our water, soil and the air we breathe.
People need to watch John Flannery Urgent!!!!!
Corporate profits, like grocery stores raising prices FOR GREED. During COVID, with supply chain problems & shortages prices rose constantly. So now that these issues are resolved, why do we have inflation? GREED, GREED.
Thank you for making that comment. I think the our government forgot who they answer to the American people…. by the people for the people.
Don't forget about BAYER!
AOC is by far the most eloquent intelligent member of Congress. I hope in 4 years we see more of her.
❤ fair point!
0:36 …ours to monetize for means of profit, only… may be how I’d complete that sentiment. Thank you AOC for working to speak on behalf of all residents of our country 💙
FACTS.
I wish she could run for VP with Harris. It’s probably not the right time, but she would be nice to have at that higher level.
yes I've been saying this! why isn't it the right time? i get she's young but. isn't that what we need?
Tell Robert, I said hello
Taking them to school ❤
Initiatives to plant trees in urban areas
AOC is so well spoken. She is also courageous and just.
I can hardly wait for the US to have PRESIDENT AOC!!
👍🏼
I hope elections will still be a thing when she becomes eligible for president
This is upsetting 😡 😞
"Economic Prosperity" is far more important to greed (blatant ignorance) than Human Life!
I love HER ❤️
What is Pirro’s briefing look like for the month?
Thank you for making that comment. I think the our government forgot who they answer to the American people…. by the people for the people I love New York
Hearing how AOC always speaks about the community
While others speak about constituents really lets you know who they really are backing
As a person who works for oil and gas, they don't give a sh!
Legit they don't. They pay us sh! As well.
They care even less for the people who are doing the hard labor
It’s about the money.
Progress and development economic development was never meant or maybe it was to harm human beings that vote and our consumers. But here it is hurting us and who is reaping major corporations. I’m now 71 years old and for the first time in my life, I now have asthma because of these very chemicals , think about folks what’s happening to your children and get grandchildren and possibly yourself will you be there to see them grow up get married graduate just be a part of your life
If you wanna know what I’m talking about in my statement, just look at the analytics and Google since add and you will find out exactly what I was talking about in the ads they try to make you believe you’re crazy until you bring it to their attention, leaning them to be totally insane, and the people that were actually insane were perfectly sanity, and the people that were insane. There was never a long, long way with them. Society marked them that way, so they don’t pull out and develop into a butterfly because the world is a huge, huge monarch. Don’t ever forget that.
People over profit
Your Robert’s wife correct I spoke to Robert yesterday
Shes so beautiful and smart....
Your Robert’s wife correct I spoke to Robert yesterday my character has been deflated
AOC gives me hope!
What is defamation much different from defecated or human degration?
While there is a type of patriotism that does not need to be taught and is simply preference for one’s own ingroup. American patriotism religion media and entertainment industries are often just one long term psyop
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻let’s get capitalism to focus on humanitarianism to move forward in this world.
See thats why I don't wear workout clothes... Or workout .. 😏🥴
Republicans can't stand that a billionaire might lose a penny.

all this stuff about capitalism being good for everyone is such a load
like we can't see what's right in front of us. It's insulting.
How anyone can see this and pass it of as "crazy liberal nonsense" is asinine.
She has gained weight 😮
Based on the title I thought she was going to talk about cutting into healthy bodies.
@CEToorn Curious how you only started objecting when it is trans people. Nothing about intersex babies or cosmetic surgery?
@@CEToorn How about MGM?
@@TheRedRaccoonDog Could you tell me, how did you come up with your interpretation of my comment please?
@@CEToorn Based on past patterns. People who talk like that ALWAYS mean trans surgery.
@@TheRedRaccoonDog Generalizing people like that is a slippery slope.
The economy should serve the people, not the other way around. I can't believe this is a hot take in the states, your country is so f*cked. Get well soon ig
She's gorgeous! I need to get my $hit together.
Marianne2024
Octavio you totally forgot about your people!! Stop lying
Is this freak a troll or is it real.
Um … your ears open ?
Healthcare isn’t a right 🫃🏻
Why do you think that? Humans are supposed to be a social species and yet we have a system where everyone is out for themselves. How does that make sense?
@@MoonLightPhoenixLove because you have no right to another persons goods or services.
@@p1randymarsh618actually you do if they’re offering their goods/services at a price/trade/whatever. The fact that we don’t have a system in place to meet those criteria is where we need to have a solution for.
@@p1randymarsh618No but you have a right to a standard of living which allows you to have access to basic human needs!
@@junewebb-baptiste2409 that’s not true either.
AOC is gaining weight. Still beautiful though.
Did you really just comment here about her weight? Ffs. YOU are what's wrong with America.
Wtf? How is that relevant to anything? Who cares? We all gain weight.
AOC doesn't even know the three branches of government and has never had ANY legislation passed...lol 😆
I love AOC! She's brilliant, and most of all, she's actually fighting for the people she's meant to!
It looks like AOC is getting some of the Rep. Crockett' sassy unapologetic call-it-as-it-is style.
She is absolutely beautiful!!
Preach!
