Cotton says media was 'Stalin-like' in Ocasio-Cortez Green Deal cover up
By Lukas Mikelionis | Fox News

Do voters think Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal is reasonable?
Lawrence Jones asks people in Washington, D.C. about the Green New Deal; reaction from Fox News contributors Jessica Tarlov and Lawrence Jones.

Arkansas Republican Sen. Tom Cotton unloaded on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal and said the media were "complicit" in burying the most radical parts of the deal.

Cotton, a staunch Republican, appeared on The Hugh Hewitt Show on Tuesday and discussed the widely ridiculed Green New Deal that aims to implement sweeping changes across the nation.

But what particularly caught Cotton's eye was how the media became complicit in hiding the now-infamous FAQ document circulated by the Ocasio-Cortez office, which included lines such as promising a job to "all people of the United States" - including those "unwilling to work" - and making air travel industry obsolete.

"I understand the Democrats that proposed this immediately tried to retract that white paper that went along with their resolution," Cotton added. "And too many people in the media have been complicit in the Stalin-like or 1984 technique of disappearing it, sending it down the memory hole."

Hewitt asked whether the Democrats who immediately jumped to endorse the radical package have actually read what's inside it.

"Sure. I mean, Hugh, it's pretty remarkable that when these Democrats put out the Green New Deal last week that you had many Democrats running for president leap onto a proposal that was going to confiscate every privately owned vehicle in America within a decade and ban air travel so we could all drive or ride around on high-speed light rail, supposedly powered by unicorn tears, yes," Cotton said.

Multiple Democratic 2020 candidates such as Sens. Elizabeth Warren, Cory Booker, Kamala Harris, and Kirsten Gillibrand have endorsed the deal.

Cotton finished the interview segment saying the Green New Deal, in essence, is what Democrats believe in and want for the U.S.

"But this is where their heart lies," he said. "They believe that Americans driving around in trucks on farms, or commuting from the suburbs where they can have a decent home into the city to work are a fundamental threat to the world, and they have to have the power and the control of those Americans' lives to implement their radical vision for humanity."

have a couple of GOP geriatrics, or close to it, in the family. far from stupid people with quite accomplished careers. a doctor, a lawyer, a methodist preacher, and a chief financial officer for a health care company. remember kids, stereotypes and blanket statements are bad

Nice picture. But it is funny how the progs are scurrying to deny what our own eyes saw. That's fine, it shows everyone that they cannot be trusted with anything. It is like the press, they have ruined their credibility. No one believes anything they say anymore.
