DEEP POCKETS: Ocasio-Cortez's primary win backed by Young Turks, George Soros

Researcher Richard Weinstein joined Glenn Beck and Stu Burguiere on Wednesday's show to discuss his stunning discovery of the deep pockets behind Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's "grassroots" campaign.

Wondering how Ocasio-Cortez achieved her primary win in the 14th district of New York without really knowing any policy, Weinstein began a preliminary search for answers. He quickly discovered that in 2017, Ocasio-Cortez's website belonged to a group called "Brand New Congress."

So I went to her campaign website and took that web address and looked through the internet archive. When I went back to 2017, it was not her website, it belonged to the group "Brand New Congress."

Here's what the same web address looked like in late 2017:

By following the "bouncing ball," Weinstein soon found out that Brand New Congress is a group dedicated to flooding "the playing field with progressives." BNC's co-founder, Saikat Chakrabarti, appeared on Rachel Maddow's show to discuss how the group is "capitalizing on Bernie Sanders' appeal."

Watch Rachel Maddow explain and discuss with the co-founder of Brand New Congress, Saikat Chakrabarti.

I know, I know, Rachel Maddow. But if you want to learn about the left, you have to actually watch and listen to them.https://t.co/JWBnMZS7ee

Apparently, all approved candidates have signed onto an official policy page.

Here’s the official current policy page that ALL of their candidates have signed onto: https://t.co/cdM9lLtmgl

Fixing the Economy, Medicare for All, Tax Reform, Foreign Policy, Women’s Rights, CJ Reform, Voting Rights, LGBTQIA Rights, Immigration Reform, ...

The trail then leads from Saikat Chakrabarti to an affiliated organization called “Justice Democrats,” which is co-founded by Cenk Uygur, a far-left founder and host of The Young Turks.

THIS IS WHERE IT GETS REALLY WEIRD.

“Justice Democrats” is a PAC co-founded by Cenk Uygur, the far lefty that used to be on MSNBC and eventually started a Youtube blog called TYT (The Young Turks). Yeah, this guy-->

The story doesn't stop there. Guess who is the deep-pockets behind The Young Turks? Yep, the Media Consortium, which is a George Soros-endowed entity.

"There is no such thing as a grassroots campaign," Glenn said. "The story is that she went out and knocked on doors — which I believe she did, she worked hard for it — but she also has, apparently, funding and support from very Leftist organisations, including George Soros."
