AOC produced a seven-and-a-half minute video in which she narrated how she’ll end America as we know it. And let’s not forget the elimination of all those innocent cows, whose only crime is having a bad case of flatulence.
Produced by the Intercept and illustrated by Molly Crabapple, AOC delusional video was shortlisted for an Emmy for News and Analysis in the Editorial and Opinion category on Thursday.
Initially published in April 2019, the clip outlines the environmental disasters facing the world and describes how the proposed ‘Green New Deal’ will, like a flying unicorn pooping zero-carbon emission rainbows out its butt, will magically solve them in one miraculous decade.
So… while 2020 is highly unpredictable, I *definitely* did not expect to be nominated for an Emmy Award for our Green New Deal project with @theintercept, @mollycrabapple, @NaomiAKlein & others.
Rather shocked & very grateful.

The segment will face off against other liberal loony-toon productions such as Rachel Madcow’s “Tiller and Beyond: Abortion Wars in Kansas,” a segment of ‘Real America with Jorge Ramos’ called “Detained by a Dictator,” a New Day Weekend bit titled “‘Infested,’ He Says,” and the New York Times clip “Equal Play.”
