0:00.0	Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a Democratic Socialist and a member of the Democratic Socialists of America.
0:06.6	She recently won in New York's 14th Congressional District in a huge upset no one thought she was
0:11.9	going to win. She was 36 points behind and she's a Democratic Socialist. People really didn't think
0:18.0	that was going to happen, but following her victory. Many mainstream politicians have started
0:22.3	embracing some of her rhetoric. Bill DeBlasio and Kirsten Gillibrand have recently called for

1:44.6	to help protect yourself online. A few days ago, I saw this tweet from Ian Bremer. It says

1:54.7	abolish ice, abolish profit. One sign says no borders. One sign says no ban and several of the
