Typical McConnell, he'll run anything through the Senate for a vote that he figures it doesn't stand a chance of passing. On the other hand, if he thinks it may pass it never comes up for a vote.

Ocasio Cortez is a Walter Mitty. She dreams that she could be changing the world when she was just a bartender Daydreamer with an economics degree that she does not use because she's in blinded by socialist.

I was watching the female senator from Minnesota being interviewed on Fox News. Brett Baier asked her about the Green New Deal since she is a supporter. She equivocated on her answer because she did not want to be nailed down as supporting getting rid of fossil fuels but does "support" it for discussion purposes. The Democrats should have kept this vague and left details out. I cannot imagine a majority of people supporting such a huge transformation of our lives.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday that the Senate would vote on the Green New Deal introduced last week by Sen. Edward Markey, D-Mass., and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.
"I've noted with great interest the Green New Deal, and we're going to be voting on that in the Senate to give everybody an opportunity to go on record," McConnell told reporters.
The bill, which is not expected to pass the Republican-dominated upper chamber, could force some Democrats to make a politically awkward calculation.
