AOC ‘Goes Full Howard Dean’ at Bowman Rally As Pro-Hamas Activists Target Her for ‘Endorsing Genocide’
“You are worse than any openly fascist politician. At least we know they are our enemies. Liberals like you will smile in our face as you lie to and backstab our communities.”
Since Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) spoke out earlier this month against antisemitism after pro-Hamas agitators from Within Our Lifetime (WOL) brought their “Day of Rage” to the NYC Nova Festival Exhibit, she’s received a wave of backlash from hardliner anti-Israel activists who view her comments as the ultimate betrayal.
For instance, here’s what Palestinian agitator and WOL co-founder Nerdeen Kiswani had to say at the time in response:
You are worse than any openly fascist politician. At least we know they are our enemies. Liberals like you will smile in our face as you lie to and backstab our communities. The only person targeted and dehumanized was a young Palestinian muslim woman. Stop revising the facts. https://t.co/dcL9KAlhyH

On Saturday, AOC, along with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), held a rally in the Big Apple on behalf of fellow Hamas Caucus member Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), who is facing a tough primary fight against Westchester County Executive George Latimer. Mr. Latimer, who Bowman predictably has portrayed as a “racist,” has a comfortable lead in the polling averages and is a well-known and well-liked politico in the area.
Early voting started last Saturday. Primary Day is June 25th.
Ahead of the rally – which reportedly was held outside of Bowman’s NY-16 district, WOL promised to confront AOC on the grounds that “endorsing Biden” equals “endorsing genocide”:
🚨THE BRONX STANDS WITH PALESTINE AGAINST SELL-OUT POLITICIANS WHO TRADE PALESTINIAN LIVES FOR VOTES🚨
🇵🇸Flood the Bronx for Gaza

Our demands for progressives who strive to be allies with Palestine:
1. Unendorse Genocide Joe
2. Re-affirm that anti-zionism is not antisemitism
3. Recognize the right to resist in accordance with international law

It’s really short sighted to think our demo at the AOC/Bernie/Bowman rally (in AOC’s district) will hurt Bowman.
We aren’t telling people not to vote for him.
We’re demanding they all take a principled stance on Palestine during the genocide and refuse to endorse Biden.

Though AOC didn’t condemn news of the group’s intent to disrupt the rally, pro-Israel Democrat Congressman Ritchie Torres (D-NY) did:
Within Our Lifetime justifies and glorifies the bloodiest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. The notion of “flooding the Bronx for Gaza” is meant as a twisted show of solidarity with Hamas, which describes the terror of October 7 as “Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.” A dangerous… pic.twitter.com/0pwiK1MW3k

As promised, they were there:

And in case anyone was unclear about their message:
Rally dispersed! From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free! 🇵🇸 pic.twitter.com/YZ8xY9nLBD

Though they weren’t inside the park for the sparsely attended Bowman rally, WOL were right outside of it:
However, outside the park, the anti-Israel group Within Our Lifetime, run by radicals Nerdeen Kiswani and Fatima Mousa, hosted their “Flood the Bronx for Gaza” to counter the rally, which about 150 attended.
Some banged drums while others held signs with slogans like “For class war to free Palestine! Dump Genocide Joe and the Squad.”
“If Bowman and the rest of them claim to be allies of the Palestinian people, the bare minimum is not endorsing the person we have been protesting against the last nine months and who has enabled the genocide of the people in Gaza,” said Kiswani, parroting a debunked Hamas talking point.
Meanwhile, a Howard Dean-esque AOC, perhaps annoyed by the protesters, worked to fire up the crowd by coming up on stage and acting like a boxer who was getting ready to fight:

AOC and Jaamal Bowman exhibit bizarre behavior as Bowman campaigns for reelection in the Bronx.

Adding to Squad leader AOC’s woes over the Israel-Hamas war, her pro-ceasefire stance, and her recent and long overdue condemnation of antisemitism was the fact that Holocaust denier/white nationalist Nick Fuentes was singing her praises over her criticisms of the Israeli government and AIPAC ahead of the Bowman campaign event:
You are a white supremacist and I want nothing to do with you nor the world you imagine. I believe in a multiracial democracy, one of economic rights, civil liberties, and that affirms the working class and the rights of women and LGBTQ+ people.
These are not small differences.…

It’s hard being AOC in 2024! Bless her heart.

Such hateful people. Bowman deserves the trash heap of history.
Sanders is even worse than AOC. Where is his kaffiyeh?
Is it just me, or does Bowman look like a black Winnie the Pooh/Xi Jinping?
AOC, meanwhile, was just a harpy in momshorts.
I wonder how AOC, Biden, Sanders, and the rest of the “hard” socialists are enjoying that squirmy feeling in their gut as they see the Overton Window (that they now realize they are about to be thrown under) come hurtling in their direction.
Take back the country? I thought that she thought that her side was in charge.
Also what’s with this y’all stuff? That’s supposed to be southern and western, but now it’s kind of been taken over by blacks who are from the East. Or is that just the new hip and kool thing to do?
I was going to say, “Take it back? How can you take back something that was never yours?”
The same logic as used by your obese neighbor who says that he/she/it “is getting back in shape,” when in fact they have never been in shape.
These are our elected leaders
Oh dear God, can you imagine Washington and Jefferson, Adams seeing this bunch of DEI’s
“AOC Goes Full Howard Dean…”
“…goes on a screaming rant and knocks over her mic while talking about taking this country back”
Sounds to me like she went full retard. Never go full retard!
Crazy white chick pumps up other crazy white chicks.
Ooh, she said the “fight” word. Twice.
Under the J6 committee rules, that’s two insurrections on her. Right?
Same applies to anyone who ever uses the word “campaign”.
I may have missed the chants exhorting Hamas to release the Israeli captives.
I may not have heard the part of her speech when she demanded that Hamas stop impregnating Israeli rape-slaves
The absolute absence of concern for Americans held in gaza
The absolute utter lack of any concern for that 8-year-old girl being held in gaza (more than one?)
…… not gonna lie, it kinda makes me wish similar fates on jamaal and his loved ones wife kids and Aoc and her abuela may God forgive me
the godless left must be trounced this election.
The pull quote isn’t wrong.
This Aoc character grew up since age 3 or 4 in Yorktown Heights NY — look it up, it’s really one of the loveliest, most crime-free towns in America. And then she attended one of the most expensive private colleges in the world.
Why does she try to speak as if she grew up “ghetto”?
(Side note: Does anybody know why Citizen Free Press calls her Sandy from Brooklyn? The girl was born in the Bronx, and her parents moved her on out — to idyllic Westchester County well before she started elementary school.
And then decades later she goes around as“Sandy from the Bronx” it’s just so weird. She’s had zero connection to nyc since she was in diapers.
So many things in this life that I still do not know how to understand. Or idk maybe that’s the point. Or maybe Aoc is a bit of a conflicted, disturbed young lady who still has a bit of growing up to do? Idk, Who knows
I always heard “Sandy from the Bronx” used as a mock because that is how she referred to herself to try and get some street cred when it takes a 10sec google search to see where she actually grew up.
It sounds exactly like how an unemployed caller into an AM radio talk show would identify herself.
I think she had someone else take her college classes for her. To graduate cum laude with Bachelor of Arts degrees in International Relations and Economics she knows little about economics.
Kinda tells you something about what standout academic excellence is, at B.U.
It’s sad.
It looked like she was channeling Margaret Hamilton’s Wicked Witch of the West for a moment there.
Uh huh. And the idiot NY democrats will reelect her anyway.
she is the poster child for an ignorant self-centered bytch
she probably sucked as a barista, too
I knew sooner or later that Israel and Palestinian factions of the Democrat Party would end up in a clash.
It’s fun to watch.
AOC is just hitching her wagon to poll results now by doing Jew Theater for votes.
Let me get this straight … they are upset that the Israelis are running a “genocide” that seems to be interfering with their desire for a counter-genocide.
This is the dawning of the age of aquarius
Age of aquarius
Aquarius!
Aquarius!
Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind’s true liberation
Aquarius!
Aquarius!
I was around in 1969 when this song was a big hit — and I can assure you it never would have occurred to anyone even the most passive pacifistic radical antiwarrier draftdodger—that American could be kidnapped somewhere and our Secretary of State wouldn’t try to rescue them.
Worse, we send the kidnappers millions.
Worse still, we dramatically reduce munitions shipments to the folks who ARE trying to do something about it.
Thanks Blinken you worse than worthless poltroon piece of sh*t. If I knew any voodoo
No, you don’t get it, they don’t want a genocide, they just want to kill all the Joos. That’s not genocide…
Their inspiration is more from this song…
“All we wanna do is eat your brains
We’re not unreasonable
I mean, no one’s gonna eat your eyes.
All we wanna do is eat your brains
We’re at an impasse here
Maybe we should compromise.”
the goal is to shame the aoc’s to become even more ruthless towards pro americans
as blm stated
its not enough to say you are against racism or not a racist
you have to prove it in other ways
She represents the sterling mentation of today’s woman.
She is screeching and jumping around like a madwoman yelling about “taking the country back”. From whom? She is stumping for a NY Representative in a state run by Democrats, in a city with a Democrat Mayor in a Borough run by Democrats. Even in NYC I find it hard to believe anyone would vote for this clown. Name one thing she has done in Congress except put out constant Social Media tweets
Bothersome that at a time of unprecedented national disorder and the dissolution of our empire, the number one issue this election is Israel.
The most hated thing in America summer 2024….. an Empire State license plate.
It looks to me as if these retards are victims of their own creation
There are two ways to take the word “special,” and Sandy didn’t pick up on the original inflection.
Slaughtering 1,400 by helpless captives is is a war crime and we should treat Hamas the same way we treated the Nazis in WW2. Remember Dresden? We should do the Rafah what we did to Dresden. Hamas can surrender if they object to the war that they started.
