The Left has called the president many names, from white nationalist to racist to power-crazed tyrant. But it takes a keen, inciteful (insightful?) mind like that of freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to hatch the crackpot notion that Donald Trump is a supporter of eugenics, the science of improving a human population by controlled breeding.
Ocasio-Cortez, who has also compared ICE detention centers to concentration camps, made the controversial claim during an interview with Yahoo News on Tuesday. Her comments came during a discussion of Senior White House Adviser Stephen Miller, who the far-left Southern Poverty Law Center has targeted for the crime of sharing anti-illegal immigration news articles.
In one particular email, Miller suggested the idea of a complete ban on immigration “like Coolidge did,” which the New York Times incorrectly claims is a link to a 1924 law “seen today as a symbol of bigotry and was heavily influenced by the eugenics movement.”
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
“I think the most clear and disturbing of them all is the fact that Stephen Miller (who is Jewish!) has just been exposed as frankly a neo-Nazi and a white supremacist,” Ocasio-Cortez falsely claimed.
“He was citing eugenics as the rationale for our policy in the southern border and Donald Trump clearly thinks that – clearly believes in eugenics – given the fact that he has put and maintained Stephen Miller in a position of power after these revelations.”

Ocasio-Cortez: Impeachment at ‘Point of No Return’
Ocasio-Cortez also addressed the impeachment hearings, asserting as have others in her party that Trump clearly committed a crime, a notion that facts and actual testimony thus far have contradicted.
“Yeah, I’m, well, clearly momentum is build[ing],” she argued. “We’re kind of knee-deep here in impeachment inquiry and so um, you know, at this point I think we’re beyond the question as to whether Trump has committed a crime or whether he has violated the Constitution.”
“It’s not just Trump, but who else is going to be implicated in this and so, you know, I think when it comes to what we’ve discovered, we’re at the point of no return and it’s just a question of how many crimes have been potentially committed and who else has committed them,” she added.
The comments echo those that the New York Democrat made previously in which she claimed prior to any testimony that impeachment is an “open and shut case.”

She Endorsed Bernie Sanders … Who Supports Population Control
Perhaps Ocasio-Cortez was too busy concocting lies and smearing the president as a man who supports eugenics to examine her own actions. Had she done so, she may have discovered that the candidate she has endorsed for 2020, Bernie Sanders, has espoused using population control and abortion as a means to combat global warming.
When asked at a town hall earlier this year if he would support measures to curb population growth, including abortion, which disproportionately affects black communities, Sanders answered he would. “The answer is yes and the answer has everything to do with the fact that women, in the United States of America, by the way, have a right to control their own bodies and make reproductive decisions,” he claimed.
Even the vacant-minded pundits at CNN recognized the comments for what they were.
Let’s just state for the record: talking about needing “population control” through ABORTION for the sake of CLIMATE is talking about EUGENICS. The fact that @BernieSanders is willing to entertain this vile idea is not only disgusting, it should be disqualifying.

Using Ocasio-Cortez’s own logic (if it can be called that), this clearly means she supports eugenics as well.
Sanders, by the way, has vowed that Ocasio-Cortez would “no doubt” play a significant role in his administration, even suggesting he’d be willing to have her as a member of his cabinet.
Let that sink in for a moment.
