Ocasio-Cortez and Sanders took the stage at Howard University on Monday evening to discuss the urgency of climate change action.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders this week teamed up to promote the Green New Deal to young voters in Washington, D.C.

During his speech, Sanders called for a “political revolution” to tackle the fossil fuel industry. “How do we take on an industry with unlimited wealth, unlimited power, and unlimited resources? We need a political revolution. Both Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez repeatedly highlighted the urgency for climate action."When you're dealing with the future of the planet and making sure that our kids and our grandchildren have a healthy and habitable world in which to live, I don't know how you go too far," Sanders said."This is an existential threat, not just to the United States, but to the entire planet.

AOC BernieSanders Again with this shit. We need people who understand that governance is not about making snippy speeches. But actually doing the damned work. These revolutionaries need to either do that or sit their dumb asses down.

AOC BernieSanders 🤮

AOC BernieSanders This idiot has done more damage to the Climate Change fight than even Trump has

AOC BernieSanders No, we need to get the Senate into Dem hands and have Warren or Harris be our nominee. Bernie needs to go knit.

AOC BernieSanders Revolution my eye. This chart is a breakdown of the ideological categories of the Democratic Party. Socialists and Progressives are not the base. So save your threats for someone who cares.

AOC BernieSanders They are the reason we got trump and are going backwards in the fight against CC and in Women's Rights, the Immigration Crisis. These damned people don't know what they're doing.

AOC BernieSanders

AOC BernieSanders JoeBiden Sanders, who has been trying to play down his socialist roots, is apparently so desperate because his campaign is collapsing, is now tying himself to proud, avowed socialist AOC and is renewing their call for a SOCIALIST REVOLUTION. Make them own every word of it.

AOC BernieSanders They're all just a bunch of attention hungry frauds. Don't they have jobs they should be doing?

AOC BernieSanders Y'all said that in 2016 and failed Y'all said that in 2018 and failed. The revolution that occurred consisted of CENTRISTS winning a majority of House seats. Y'all can go take up knitting now.

AOC BernieSanders Ugh

AOC BernieSanders LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL -gasp- LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL -gasp- LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL -gasp- LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL Also, why are they never at work?

AOC BernieSanders Keep it up. If bernie thinks being associated with you who wants a socialist revolution, then sadly, he really is in his dotage. He's been trying to downplay his socialism. He can't do that by associating with you. NeverSocialist NeverBernie

AOC BernieSanders You need to get primaried. AOC

AOC BernieSanders NeverBernie

AOC BernieSanders I was wondering if AOC would allow herself to be weaponized by Bernie for the primary. Bernieworld is going to get even uglier.

AOC BernieSanders

AOC BernieSanders Smallish lecture room at Howard U and they STILL have a completely white audience. You have no revolution. Sanders won't be POTUS, AOC elected with a teensy turnout & losing elections across the country. Bye, bye, now.

AOC BernieSanders Bernie Sanders barely mentioned Climate Change during 2016. Hillary Clinton was the only candidate who cared. So bizarre, she would team up with Bernie on this.

AOC BernieSanders Like the one with expanded green jobs and ACA and a Liberal Supreme Court for two decades we’d have NOW if he’d sat his lame Gary-Johnson-of-Vermont ass the fuck down and not HELPED Russia cost Hillary the presidency?

BernieEvents AOC BernieSanders Donate $7 to Bernie and $3 to AOC

AOC BernieSanders This has been talked about for 4 years. AOC won her district because of low turnout, Bernies people haven't won much of anything.

AOC BernieSanders How about this, you both could just do your job instead of holding love me rallies, getting in tweeter fights, and hanging out in green rooms. You could literally do something about this.

AOC BernieSanders We need u impeached

AOC BernieSanders Or a clue.
