GASSY LASSIE: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Says We Need a ‘Democratic Party That Farts’ Harder.

Democrat Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York ripped Republican Gabe Evans for not doing a town hall in Colorado. While speaking at a political rally in his state she said the Democrat Party needs to start ripping, too – ripping farts and doing so as hard as possible. No, really. She just let it slip out.

Hear it for yourself. (WATCH)

REASON MAGAZINE’S PETER SUDERMAN: Forget Woke Snow White. Disney’s Remake Is More Like Socialist Snow White.

[Snow White] is indeed a trainwreck. The problem isn’t that it’s woke. It’s that it’s awful—and lamely, bluntly socialist.

The remake’s big idea was to twist the idea of the word “fair.” See, in earlier versions of Snow White, an evil queen asks a magic mirror, “Who is the fairest of them all?” It’s always the queen, until one day the mirror responds that it’s actually her stepdaughter, the Princess Snow White. The question, “who is the fairest,” in other words, has always been a question about beauty. But in the remake, there’s something else going on. The movie goes to great lengths to demonstrate that the queen isn’t fair because she’s not a socialist. I am not kidding.

The film doesn’t quite use that word. But early in the film, Snow White encounters a handsome thief named Jonathan in the castle. Jonathan is the leader of a group of bandits who live in the woods and survive by stealing food. He feels justified in stealing because he and other ordinary people have very little while the queen has a lot and she won’t share.

This isn’t just a generic lesson in being kind. Later, after Snow White takes up with seven computer-animated dwarfs in the forest, one of the dwarfs explains that the bandits in the woods are “only there because of the queen’s greedy economic policies, which forced them there into a liminal space where ethics are harder to define.” This might not be a precise word-for-word quote—the line gets spat out so fast I am not certain I transcribed it exactly right—but it’s pretty close. This is a movie about how stealing is justified because of the evil queen’s economic policies. She’s not fair, you see, because her privilege and selfishness have impoverished ordinary people. It’s Snow White by way of Occupy Wall Street.

And now we know why Disney cast arguably Hollywood’s most prominent Jewish actress in the role of the Evil Queen. Or as Jim Treacher tweeted:

Though to be fair, between Zegler’s hatred of Israel, and the casting of Gadot as the capitalist Evil Queen its all pretty on-brand for Disney:

I’M SORRY, BUT ALL THE TASTEMAKERS IN THE MEDIA ARE TELLING ME HE’S THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD:

But don’t worry, hard-working Tesla people. There are Democrats trying to wreck the value of your stock.

RUY TEIXEIRA: How Deep Is the Hole Democrats Are In? Pretty deep. “On the plus side, voters in a February Navigator Research poll across the battleground Congressional districts thought Democrats in Congress “fight for what they believe.” However, they also thought Democrats don’t respect work, don’t share my values, don’t look out for working people, don’t value work, don’t care about people like me, don’t have the right priorities and, by a massive 47 points, don’t get things done. Double ouch.”

Oh, yeah, they fight for what they believe all right. The problem is what they believe.

OPEN THREAD: Because I love you and want you to be happy.

DOUBLE STANDARDS ARE THE ONLY STANDARDS THE ESTABLISHMENT HAS LEFT. Double Standards for Jew-Haters? “Because the DOJ under Merrick Garland had identified ‘racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists’ as the No. 1 terrorism threat in America, and because this one crazy Jew-hater in Richmond happened to be associated with a Catholic group, a shadow of terrorist suspicion was cast on all conservative Catholics by the FBI. ‘Henrico man sentenced to over eight years in prison for illegally possessing Molotov cocktails’ was the headline on a DOJ press release last month bringing an end to the Xavier Lopez case, and not a single Democrat has filed a lawsuit or issued a press release opposing the prosecution of Lopez. Why, then, are we hearing so much noise about the Trump administration’s crackdown on Jew-haters?”

Because the left defends its tools, and persecutes its enemies.

THAT’S GONNA LEAVE A MARK:
