Excerpt: New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) says she’s thrilled by the crash of the oil industry, which has cost hundreds of thousands of jobs and could put many U.S. producers out of business.

“You absolutely love to see it,” she tweeted. “This along with record low interest rates means it’s the right time for a worker-led, mass investment in green infrastructure to save our planet.”

Well, this should go over big in the oil and gas patch, including states that have prospered via fracking, such as Pennsylvania, Ohio, Texas, West Virginia and North Dakota.

AOC’s lurch into green insanity was promptly deleted. But it was only the latest such blast from the young face of the Marxist wing of the Democratic Party, which has taken over its host.

Last Wednesday, on the new Vice TV talk show “Seat at the Table” featuring author Anand Giridharadas, AOC urged people to stay unemployed even after the lockdowns end.

“When we talk about this idea of reopening society you know, only in America does the president — when the president tweets about ‘liberation’ — does he mean ‘go back to work,’” she said. “When we have this discussion about going back or reopening, I think a lot of people should just say no — we’re not going back to that.”
