Dumb and Dumber!
Talk about the ultimate combination!
“Green New Deal” proponent Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., will reportedly serve on a climate change panel for former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign.
“She made the decision with members of the Climate Justice community – and she will be fully accountable to them and the larger advocacy community during this process……She believes the movement will only be successful if we continue to apply pressure both inside and outside the system.”

Ocasio-Cortez, a member of the freshman “Squad,” was one of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ most vocal surrogates before he dropped out of the race and endorsed Biden last month.
She will advise Biden’s team on climate policy as a Sanders representative, according to Reuters.
The panel is part of an effort by Biden’s campaign to win over Sanders’ supporters and others to the party’s left still wary of his candidacy, The Washington Post reported.
Biden and Sanders have agreed to work together on six joint policy committees, which includes the climate change panel, according to The Post.
“We’ve set up joint committees together to deal with how we would deal with everything from the [coronavirus] all the way down to education, the criminal justice system, the new Green Deal, etc………We have, you know, Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez. She is on one of the panels.”
Joe Biden
Ocasio-Cortez has not formally endorsed Biden but has said she plans to vote for him, according to the Post.
