    Default AOC Calls for $15 Minimum Wage at Airport Where Minimum Wage is $19

    Recently sworn-in Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called for a $15 minimum wage at a New York City airport Monday; bizarrely complaining about the price of a croissant while seemingly unaware the minimum wage at the transportation hub is actually $19 an hour. “Croissants at LaGuardia are going for SEVEN DOLLARS A PIECE,” she tweeted. “Yet some people think getting a whole hour of personal, dedicated human labor for $15 is too expensive??”

    Croissants at LaGuardia are going for SEVEN DOLLARS A PIECE 😱 Yet some people think getting a whole hour of personal, dedicated human labor for $15 is too expensive?? — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) April 1, 2019

    The Congresswoman is apparently unaware the minimum wage for New York airport workers was raised to $19 in September 2018. “On Thursday, the campaign ended in victory for as many as 40,000 airport workers who are now on a path to earning at least $19 an hour, the highest minimum wage target set by any public agency in the country,” reported the New York Times. “It will go well beyond the $15 minimum hourly wage that several cities have enacted and that New York State will adopt as the base wage for many workers at the end of the year,” adds the article.

    The minimum wage at LaGuardia Airport is not $15 per hour, it’s $19 per hour https://t.co/c90KCjoaZy

    Go for it. Drop their hourly wage by $4.

    I am beginning to think she is Trump’s secret weapon. NOBODY could be so ignorant and stupid.

    Seems the important question is - what did that croissant cost a year ago, before the minimum wage was raised to $19?? I’m guessing it was less than $7

    "Hannity?" For real? You are actually citing "Hannity" as a source? Might as well us the "Onion," least they employ humor in their fabrications

    Lucky for her she didn't put mustard on that croissant

    She should really start researching things before she runs her dick sucker.

    A few days ago she thought 3/21/1947 and 2/27/1951 came before 4/12/1945.

    Is it really necessary to once again bring up the umpteen flat out dumb things Trump has said in the last two years?

    Which is probably one of the reasons she bothers you Trumpkins so much, she does the exact same thing Trump does with creating her own facts and just like Trump she gets away with it, only difference she hasn't lied consistently at the same time

    I don't want her or her supporters to shut up. She shows how dumb she is by what she says and they show they're even dumber by covering for her.

    Oh, you're using, although falsely, "the other guy does it" excuse, huh? That's a sign of fear and weakness, boy.

    It concerns me that someone can be as factually dumb as she is and ass kisser like still pucker up to her. Let's not forget the two Democrats with the only "qualification" you consider important and their claims that a faggot nigger was given a "modern day lynching" only to discover they looked like fools.

    No, not a sign a "weakness" here, rather, pointing out the hypocrisy of criticizing another when the icon you worship is renowned for exhibiting the exact same "dumb" behavior, and in many more instances on a grandeur scale

    The rest of your post is just garbage, it our fault your afraid of anybody who don't look like you

    LOL She's the gift that keeps on giving. Bless her heart, she's a mess.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    It's a sign of weakness. You're too weak to know it.

    It is your fault if you think that I am afraid of anyone that doesn't like me. It is your fault if you support a dumb cunt like AOC that is obviously less qualified that Obama to hold any office. It is your fault you think Obama being black meant he was qualified. It is your fault if you believed, like two other idiots you support, that a hoax put forth by a fag nigger was real. You have a lot of faults. When are you going to start correcting them, boy?
