In this episode of The Humanist Report we’ll talk about a progressive who scares right-wingers: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. There’s currently a coordinated effort by the right to smear and delegitimize her since she obviously poses a threat to them, and we’re going to call out some of the most egregious examples of their attacks; we’ll talk about a CBS journalist that called her the “Sarah Palin of the Left,” Fox News’ Diamond & Silk questioning her intelligence, and Ben Shapiro trying to gain attention by acting as if he’s entitled to a debate with her. We’ll also talk about Rashida Tlaib, Tom Perez’s betrayal, Nancy Pelosi’s hypocrisy, Cory Booker’s spinelessness, and more. Enjoy the show!
