#Alexandria #Ocasio-#Cortez (a.k.a. #AOC) on #Global #Rules-#Based #Order
Importance of a Rules-Based Order… (1/4)

Ivanka Trump and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

On Meta, people talk about both of them like they are heroes — as if we are living in another world where one of them is already the President.

The United States can have a woman as President — but only if the right woman comes forward.

"With Kamala Harris officially out of the race, Katie #Porter has emerged as the Democratic frontrunner,
increasing her support from 12% to 18% since the April Emerson poll,”
Spencer Kimball, executive director of Emerson College Polling, said.

“Steve #Hilton, who was not in the race in April, has jumped to 12%,
while the share of undecided voters has dropped from 54% to 38% over the summer.

Porter leads among voters over 50 (22%),
those with a postgraduate degree (35%),
and white voters (23%).”

Looking ahead to the 2028 presidential nomination contest,
Governor Gavin #Newsom leads the Democratic primary with 23%,
followed by former Secretary of Transportation Pete #Buttigieg at 17%,
Vice President Kamala #Harris at 11%,
and Representative Alexandria #Ocasio-#Cortez at 9%.

In the Republican primary,
40% support Vice President JD #Vance,
10% support Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. #Kennedy,
and 9% Florida Governor Ron #DeSantis. 

Governor Gavin Newsom holds a 44% job approval rating, and 38% disapproval.
President Trump holds a 30% job approval among California voters, and 58% disapproval. 

On the generic congressional ballot, #Democrats have a 22-point advantage:
54% support the Democratic candidate while 32% support the #Republican; 15% are undecided. 

A third of voters (33%) support the proposal to redraw California’s congressional map ahead of the 2026 Midterm Elections, while a quarter (25%) oppose; 42% are unsure. 
“Support to redraw the state’s congressional map ahead of the Midterm Elections is strongest among Democrats by a 23-point margin, 42% to 19%,
and opposed by an eight-point margin among Republicans, 36% to 28%.

A majority of independent voters are unsure, while 25% oppose and 23% support,” Kimball said.

The #economy is the top issue for 30% of California voters,
down from 40% in April,
followed by #housing affordability at 19%,
#immigration at 15% (up from 7% in April),
threats to democracy at 13%,
and #healthcare at 8%.

Housing affordability is 14 points higher for California voters compared to U.S. voters overall,
while concern for threats to #democracy is ten points lower than the national poll.

A majority (61%) of California voters view #tariffs as more of a tax on U.S. consumers,
while 26% view tariffs as a tax on the foreign country. 

Democrats view tariffs as a tax on the consumer, 79% to 11%, while Republicans see tariffs as a tax on the foreign country, 54% to 32%. 

A majority of California voters (60%) think mass deportations of undocumented/illegal #immigrants in California are a bad thing,
consistent with the April Emerson poll;
40% think mass #deportations are a good thing.

Forty-nine percent of voters think the California government should spend more on #firefighter staffing and equipment,
knowing that increased funding may require a tax increase, down from 62% in February;

43% think the government should spend the same, up eight points from February, and 8% think it should spend less.

Just over half of California voters (51%) agree that Los Angeles is an ideal host city for the 2028 Summer #Olympic Games, while 27% disagree. Twenty-three percent are unsure. 

Black voters (64%), voters aged 30-39 (57%), male voters (54%), and college-educated voters (54%) most agree that Los Angeles is an ideal host city for the Olympics.

Republican voters (42%) and voters aged 50-59 (33%) are most likely to disagree that Los Angeles is an ideal host city for the 2028 Summer Olympic Games.

Khalil's Release, Court Victor...

Americans aren’t waiting for the Democratic Party to take on Trump

In February, anti-Trump demonstrations took place in all 50 states, part of the of 50501 movement (which stands for 50 protests, 50 states, one day).

On March 15, thousands of people marched in New York City under the banner of public employee unions against the Trump/Musk cuts to public services.

The arrest of pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil, a green-card-holding Columbia University graduate who played a prominent role in anti-Israel protests last year, has sparked an uproar over whether the Trump administration is violating the 1st Amendment by targeting immigrants for their political beliefs.

And God bless New York Rep. #Alexandria #Ocasio-#Cortez, 35,
and Vermont Sen. #Bernie #Sanders, 83, who are on the road in Western states with their
“Fighting Oligarchy” tour, which has drawn thousands of people to arenas this week in Arizona, Nevada and Colorado.

There’s more.
“Missing member” events, for example, where voters are holding their own town halls because their Republican members of Congress are too afraid to face them.

In some cases, constituents step up to a microphone and pose questions to an empty chair.

In Wisconsin, Republican Rep. Derrick Van Orden did not show up at a town hall,
so a Democrat from a nearby district,
Rep. #Mark #Pocan,
came instead and spoke to 300 people next to an empty chair with Van Orden’s name on it.

Hundreds of healthcare workers demonstrated outside the Anaheim Hills office of Republican Rep. #Young #Kim the other day to protest expected cuts to Medicaid, the health safety net for more than 72 million low-income and disabled Americans.

And millions of Americans all over the country may answer the call on Saturday, April 5, for a
“Hands Off” protest organized by Indivisible,
the progressive grassroots group that got its start in 2017 when a handful of congressional staffers put together a handbook about peaceful, effective resistance to right-wing power grabs.

The “Hands Off” motto:
“They’re dismantling our country. They’re looting our government. And they think we’ll just watch.”

Progressive lawmakers
(AKA The Democratic Wing of the Democratic Party)
condemned Donald Trump and Elon Musk on Monday,
➡️pointing to the attempted shuttering of the foreign aid agency USAid and the accessing of the treasury department’s federal payment system as the markings of a ⚠️“constitutional crisis”.

After Musk declared that he was working to shut down USAid,
Democratic members of Congress tried to enter the agency’s Washington headquarters
but said they were turned away on the orders of Musk’s “department of government efficiency” (Doge).

USAid staffers were also locked out of the building on Monday,
as the White House confirmed plans to merge the agency with the state department.

Addressing reporters outside the USAid headquarters, Representative Ilhan #Omar,
a Democrat of Minnesota,
accused Trump and Musk of attempting to
“take away the constitutional power of Congress”,
which has the authority to allocate federal funds.

“We are witnessing a constitutional crisis,”
Omar said.
“We talked about Trump wanting to be a dictator on day one,
and here we are.

This is what the beginning of dictatorship looks like.

When you gut the constitution and you install yourself as the sole power,
that is how dictators are made.”

The clash at USAid came one day after news broke that Musk’s associates had received access to the treasury department’s federal payment system,
potentially exposing the sensitive personal data of millions of Americans.

Democratic lawmakers reported receiving a deluge of calls from constituents expressing alarm over the possibility that their personal information might have been jeopardized.

“Donald Trump has given unprecedented power over the federal government to an unelected, unaccountable billionaire,”
Representative Greg #Casar, a Democrat of Texas and chair of the congressional progressive caucus, said in a statement.

“Progressives will fight this in the courts, on the House floor, and with every tool at our disposal
until Elon Musk is out of our government and no longer putting taxpayers, the sick, and the elderly at risk.”

Senator Elizabeth #Warren, a Democrat of Massachusetts,
sent a letter to Trump’s new treasury secretary, Scott Bessent, on Sunday
to demand answers for his role in allowing Musk’s team access to the payment system.

She warned that such access “puts the country at greater risk of defaulting on our debt,
which could trigger a global financial crisis”.

“It is extraordinarily dangerous to meddle with the critical systems that process trillions of dollars of transactions each year, are essential to preventing a default on federal debt,
and ensure that tens of millions of Americans receive their Social Security checks, tax refunds, and Medicare benefits,”
Warren wrote.

“The American people deserve answers about your role in this mismanagement,
which threatens the privacy and economic security of every American.”

Representative Alexandria #Ocasio-#Cortez, a Democrat of New York,
described the intervention of Musk,
who spent more than $290m on the 2024 election,
as a “five alarm fire” and a “grave threat to national security”.

“This is a plutocratic coup.

If you want the power, run for office and be chosen by the people,”
Ocasio-Cortez said in a social media post.

“Short of that, this is an exercise in vigilantism.”

“In #Kamala #Harris we have a chance to elect a president who is for the middle class because she is from the middle class,” progressive Rep #Ocasio-#Cortez said in her speech on Monday.

“She understands the urgency of rent checks and groceries and prescriptions. She is as committed to our reproductive and civil rights as she is to taking on corporate greed.”

Ocasio-Cortez issued a wholehearted endorsement of the new nominee, and she promised that, if elected, Harris would serve as a champion of the middle class.

In his own convention speech, Senator #Bernie #Sanders pledged that Democrats would use their governing power to “tax the rich”, “take on price gouging” and “expand Medicare”.

The possibility of that change has animated progressives.
“The energy is electrifying and it’s a lot of young folks,” the congresswoman #Pramila #Jayapal, chair of the Congressional #Progressive #caucus, told the Guardian.
“If you have young people, if you have progressives, Black, brown, Indigenous folks, working-class folks, that is actually the base that helps us to win because they are the ones that go door to door. They’re the ones that mobilize voters.”

To deliver on the promises that progressives are seeking, Harris may have to distance herself from Biden in certain areas, especially climate and the war on Gaza.
During his 2020 campaign, Biden embraced a sweeping climate agenda as he looked to reassure the millions of progressive voters who had not backed him in the primary.
While Biden signed the most significant federal climate bill in history, the Inflation Reduction Act, however, failed to follow through on his campaign pledge of “no more drilling on federal lands”.

Progressives hope Harris will stick to some of the promises that Biden made as a candidate but then walked back.

“We cannot have that happen again,” #Jeff #Merkley, a senator, told the Guardian.
“We, as climate truth-tellers, have to be very present, very loud, very determined to say,❇️ ‘We will back you 1,000%, but you can’t keep expanding the fossil infrastructure.’”❇️
