The Democrats latest heroine might not be quite the early Christmas present they had hoped for as scandal after scandal engulfs the newly elected Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC). People are often judged according to those with whom they associate, and in the case of AOCs Chief of Staff, Saikat Chakrabarti, the congresswoman-elect may well find herself destined for trouble.
Ask yourself a question: If President Donald Trump hired a person who openly shows support for a Nazi collaborator, how long would that staff member last? And perhaps more importantly, how tarnished would the presidents brand be?
This is the situation AOC may now find herself in. Havent read about it in the newspapers? Havent seen it on CNN? Let me enlighten you.
Close Allies? Saikat Chakrabarti is a highly motivated, smart guy. A Harvard grad, he founded a web tools company, Mockingbird. He is a founder of Justice Democrats, the PAC set up with The Young Turks Cenk Uygur, was instrumental in getting AOC elected, and is presently going through congressional training to learn how to become an effective chief of staff for the Dems golden girl.
Based on a recent clothing choice, Chakrabarti might justifiably be considered a Nazi sympathizer. But really? Well, yes. In his latest love-fest video for AOC, Chakrabarti is sporting a tee-shirt that features a portrait of Subhas Chandra Bose. Not familiar with this former Indian head of state? Here a few facts:
Bose was an ally of Adolf Hitler and met with him personally in 1942. Bose founded the Free India Legion (FIL) made up of troops captured by Nazi Field Marshal Rommels Afrika Korps. The FIL swore an oath to Hitler and was under SS command. Bose teamed up with the Japanese in 1943. Bose was an admirer of the USSR and sought to implement its authoritarian practices in India. You get the picture.
Theres More What to make of those people who wear of Che Guevara tee-shirts at LGBTQ rallies? The Argentine revolutionary once described homosexuals thusly: A deviation of that nature clashes with the concept we have of what a militant communist should be. Not to mention the fact that he set up Cubas first concentration camp, or that he thought of black folk as those magnificent examples of the African race who have maintained their racial purity thanks to their lack of an affinity with bathing.
Or the folks who espouse communist ideals while wearing Hammer and Sickle flags and talking about the greatness of Stalins Russia? Who calls them out on the fact that the Stalinist regime was directly responsible for torture, authoritarianism, and mass murder on a scale never before seen in human history?
Nonetheless, it would be wrong to accuse Chakrabarti of glorifying a fascist and a Nazi collaborator. And by the same token, it would be wrong to accuse AOC of keeping company with those who support Nazi collaborators.
Why?
Simply put, it is not for grown-ups to hound, humiliate, denigrate, and ruin the lives of those who make simple mistakes. It has, unfortunately, become almost par for the course to try and have people removed from their positions for either expressing an opinion, receiving the endorsement of an unsavory type, or even having ones picture taken with the wrong person. And this is by far one of the most detrimental aspects of modern politics.
Live By The Sword In such a charged and toxic political climate, it is almost impossible for an elected politician or celebrity (not that anyone really cares about celebrities) to not slip up in any way, shape or form. When they do, the left stands poised ready to pounce.
Those on the right often ignore these types of errors and this is a good thing. If both sides of the political divide were to descend into the helpless morass of name-calling and social media shaming, there would be not a soul left to govern the nation. For all its ills, America needs a steady hand at the helm, if only to ensure the lunatics arent the ones steering the ship.
Time to come full-circle. Remember the reference I made earlier to President Trump? How many of his political opponents could resist taking a shot at the head honcho if such a revelation landed in their laps? Sadly, the answer is too few. Shortly, there will be a new influx of congressmen and women to take the stage and carry the torch of liberty onwards. Will they perform any better, or will they disappoint as much as their predecessors?
Without giving too much credit to House and Senate Republicans, they have at least stayed clear of these levels of vitriol and faux outrage. With so many easy targets around, it is either sensible conduct or historical ignorance that has kept them from lashing out.

Second degree NAZI connections are only a problem for someone not a Social Democrat. For them everything is okay except for apostasy from the Socialist Religion.

“either {the GOP’s} sensible conduct or historical ignorance”
Or the obvious fact that they’re in the tank in a game rigged for Democrats by both their liberal corporate donors and their liberal staff and advisers.

It is clear now with the vermin that have come out of the woodwork since Trump was elected, we are in for an apocalyptic type of political/conflict turmoil like we have never seen before. One side says we have finally found a leader who can help clean up this horrible, evil mess and the other side says never again and we’re going to punish everyone who brought this man to power. This can not end well.

Our government is filled with foreign-born people or the children of foreign born. All of them came of age at a time when assilimation and old-fashioned values had gone out of the school system and vetting process. We are, again, reaping what we are sowing. It seems most old-fashioned Americans want to have nothing to do with government. I don’t blame them in the least but it is becoming a real problem.

A lot of this vermin actually emerged when Obama was elected; the left was in power, and the class/race/gender warfare kicked into high gear. Trump’s election just shut it down so abruptly (the whole agenda was put on the backburner, so to speak) that the left collectively flipped out – and the 2020 campaign started the morning after the 2016 campaign was decided.

I, too, see the inevitability of the regrettable future but differ on one point. When the end comes it will have ended very well. We know how to aim and they cant figure out which bathroom to use today.

At least please post a pic of him wearing the shirt so we can scrape it and perpetuate it further.

Glenn Beck commented on this a few days ago.
I disagree with the fellow on holding the Dems to their own standards. They try to ruin Republicans & conservatives over nonsense on a regular basis. It is not bad politics to hold them to their own standards. This information should be widely pointed out, and the question asked: “If someone on the right approved of a Nazi sympathizer, wouldn’t they be demonized & made to leave public office? Why shouldn’t the standard be applied to the left?”

AOC and the other young Socialist/Muslim radicals were brought to Congress through the efforts of a group called Justice Foundation. (Not to be confused with another Justice Foundation that is older and not radical.) Their link to Joseph Alcoff suggests this is another Soros group.
