'Bipartisanship Is Wrong': AOC Admits She Believes In One Party Rule - (Video)

Progressive "Squad" leader Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., announced in an interview that bipartisan agreements "tend to under-serve" already underserved communities and prioritize "corporate interests." The comments clarify much as it shows AOC has no desire to work with Republicans, and prefers autocracy to democracy.

Ocasio-Cortez appeared alongside her fellow House colleague Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass., in a Thursday interview in which she was questioned regarding her anxieties about a possible bipartisan infrastructure agreement with a smaller price tag than what has been proposed by her party and President Biden.

The New York congresswoman responded that bipartisan deals don’t completely serve communities that are already being underserved and that the deals help corporate interests.

"Usually, I have to say, representing the Bronx and Queens, when these bipartisan deals come together, they tend to underserved the communities that are already underserved," Ocasio-Cortez stated in the interview. "Places like the south Bronx, Baltimore, areas of Chicago, across the country."

"Not only do those communities get left behind and cut out in these bipartisan deals, but corporate interests get centered in these deals, as well," she went on.

Ocasio-Cortez announced that Democrats should prioritize "passing the deal that helps working people the most," creates jobs, better infrastructure, decreases climate emissions, and increases wages.

Should the bipartisan negotiations fail, however, Senate Democrats are considering spending as much as $6 trillion on their own infrastructure bill, according to Politico.

On Thursday, Ocasio-Cortez said Democrats should not prioritize issues of “process and how” as they seek a solution, but instead ask: “Are we passing the deal that helps working people the most? Are we passing the deal that makes the most jobs? Are we passing a deal that brings down the most climate emissions? Are we passing a deal that raises wages and actually improves our infrastructure for the next generation?”

"If a bipartisan deal sucks up trillions of dollars in bridges to nowhere because it makes people feel good, then that’s going to be a huge concern," the congresswoman said. "We need to make sure we are creating economic opportunities for people who are ignored in this country."

Neither Ocasio-Cortez’s nor Moulton’s offices immediately responded to requests for comment.

The House Problem Solvers Caucus, a bipartisan caucus "committed to finding common ground on many of the key issues facing the nation," earlier this month offered a $1.2 trillion infrastructure plan spanning eight years.

On Thursday, details emerged of a bipartisan compromise infrastructure plan being offered to the Problem Solvers Caucus by a collection of 21 senators that calls for $580 billion in new spending. The senators hope to negotiate a marriage between the two deals.
