Little Sandy Cortez got cocky and tried to pick a fight. Not only did SHE get torched, so did her whole damn party … it was a thing of beauty.
The whole dust-up started in response to a story about the NAACP issuing a ridiculous Florida travel advisory, claiming the policies DeSantis had signed into law constituted an ‘all-out attack’ on Black Americans and other minorities.
That’s when AOC tried to score some bonus clout with her followers by hitting a high-profile Republican with a particularly low-effort fly-by smear.
Imagine her surprise when Cruz actually took her up on her offer and took the ‘1619 Project’ worldview she and her followers have been drinking the Kool-Aid over to school.
(This seems like a good time to mention we have a ClashDaily store exclusive merchandise line (shirts, totes, bumper stickers) telling a big truth in simple terms: “1776 > 1619” There’s even a coffee table book!
Elon Musk weighed in — meaning this thread got a LOT of views…
Sen. Cruz took the time to write an entire thread in response.
1/x Sure.
– First, the Dem party founded the KKK.
– Then the Dem party wrote Jim Crow laws.
– Then the Dem party filibustered the Civil Rights Act. https://t.co/ix3fACqwkB

Under normal circumstances, Occasional Cortex cannot bear to let someone else have the last word on any subject.
But if she tried to ‘clap back’ here, all of her followers would see Ted Cruz telling the unvarnished truth about her racist party. So she carried on like the conversation never happened.
Of course, if somebody ever wanted to TROLL her, I suppose they could always link this thread under one of her many expected future race-baiting tweets.
That might be a fun way to throw the cat among the pigeons.
But to be sure, none of our readers would ever think of such a wonton act of trolling… right? Of course not.
Psalms of War: Prayers That Literally Kick Ass is a collection, from the book of Psalms, regarding how David rolled in prayer. I bet you haven’t heard these read, prayed, or sung in church against our formidable enemies — and therein lies the Church’s problem. We’re not using the spiritual weapons God gave us to waylay the powers of darkness. It might be time to dust them off and offer ‘em up if you’re truly concerned about the state of Christ’s Church and of our nation.
Also included in this book, Psalms of War, are reproductions of the author’s original art from his Biblical Badass Series of oil paintings.
This is a great gift for the prayer warriors. Real. Raw. Relevant.
