AOC's Surprising Shift: Why She's Rethinking 'Woke 1' Policies

AOC's Surprising Shift: Why She's Rethinking 'Woke 1' Policies

Progressive Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has distanced herself from the "Woke 1” positions she supported during the pandemic years, such as defunding the police, saying that the "rhetoric" used then was not "the one we would use today."The comments were made in the wake of the victory of Abdul El-Sayed, whom she has endorsed, over centrist Representative Haley Stevens in Michigan’s Senate primary during an interview with ABC This Week.Talking to co-anchor Jonathan Karl, Ocasio-Cortez spoke of "a time of renewal" for the Democratic Party which, despite the widening divide exposed by recent primaries across the country, she said is now "unifying" ahead of the November midterms. "We understand that our priority is the working class of this country, and we have to make the case that we’re here to make people’s lives better," the New York Democrat said. "The Republican Party right now is jacking up prices, making housing impossible to afford, and we are focused on everything from healthcare to your grocery bill and making it more affordable for, for working people."...When asked about contentious past statements from progressive figures like Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate and democratic socialist Francesca Hong and whether the left wing of the party went too far after 2020, Ocasio-Cortez cited New York City Council Member Chi Ossé’s statement on "woke" policies of the time supported by progressives."I have a local city councilman that has this saying, ‘Woke 1 was crazy’," she said. "I think that during this time, especially during COVID, [...] the doors were really open in trying to entertain any and every policy that was going to get us to a better place," she added.Ocasio-Cortez confirmed during the interview that she will not endorse Hong, a decision that falls in line with Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont and the national branch of the Democratic Socialists of America.“I think that a lot of these races, even right now, they’ll have a tendency to be nationalized. But these races ultimately are local, and all politics are local. My understanding is that Francesca Hong has made clear her presence in her election,” she said when asked about Hong’s views. “She’s moved away from it,” she added.What Is ‘Woke 1’?With the term "Woke 1," Ocasio-Cortez was referring to the intense peak of radically progressive policies and activism that were widely embraced by the left in 2020 in the wake of the murder of George Floyd by a white police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota.This was a time when many Americans "woke" up to the dynamics of systemic racism and social injustice in the country and progressives pressured the Democratic Party to recenter on these issues, in a way that some argued alienated moderate, working-class voters. The term "Woke 1” has been coined by 28-year-old Ossé in a May social media post where he replied to a user asking him about a comment he made in 2021 in which he said, "A cis white man should not be the next speaker of the Council."A user asked Ossé: "Did you get a new personality?""Woke 1 was crazyyyy," the council member responded, apparently distancing himself from his previous statement.What Is Ocasio-Cortez Saying About It?Ocasio-Cortez embraced the same gentle rejection of the policies that the progressive wing of the Democratic Party she represents supported during the pandemic, distancing herself from "Woke 1."But she added that she believes there was value in what was discussed at the time."I actually think that the discussions that were had at that time were quite fruitful. I think that when we talk about crime today, it’s fundamentally different from the way we talked about crime and bringing crime down," Ocasio-Cortez said."During lockdown—of course, rhetoric in that time is not rhetoric that we would use today, and I’m grateful that these candidates have the opportunity to present who they are to their electorate and what they're campaigning on at this moment," she added.Newsweek contacted Ocasio-Cortez’s office and Ossé’s office for comment by email on Monday morning.What Has Ocasio-Cortez Changed Her Stance On? 1. "Defund the Police" And Law Enforcement BudgetingWhen New York City proposed $1 billion in cuts to the New York Police Department (NYPD) budget in June 2020 (one-sixth of its total budget), Ocasio-Cortez criticized the city for not going far enough, saying the move did not respond to the activists’ request for defunding."Defunding police means defunding police. It does not mean budget tricks or funny math. It does not mean moving school police officers from the NYPD budget to the Department of Education’s budget so the exact same police remain in schools," she said, as reported by The Hill at the time.Ocasio-Cortez has since largely abandoned the "defund the police" approach and now frames her public safety platform around funding community-based violence intervention programs and social services alongside standard municipal infrastructure, rather than advocating for the stripping of police department operational budgets.In her interview with ABC News’ This Week, she said she does not align herself with abolishing police and prisons.2. "Abolish ICE" And Border RhetoricBetween 2018 and 2020, Ocasio-Cortez rose to national prominence calling for the complete abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and labeling migrant detention centers along the Southern border as "concentration camps."She has not changed her mind on ICE, which in a statement given last year she called "a rogue agency that should not exist." While she remains a strong critic of the Trump administration’s border policies, Ocasio-Cortez has since shifted her focus toward advocating for increased federal aid to cities like New York to handle asylum seekers, funding immigration court infrastructure, and streamlining work authorization permits—working within federal administrative frameworks rather than demanding agency dissolution.3. Insurgent Primary Warfare vs. Democratic Party UnitySince her rise in national politics, Ocasio-Cortez has consistently endorsed progressive primary challengers against establishment Democratic incumbents, highlighting the differences between progressive and moderate wings of the party.In 2020, before Joe Biden won the presidential election, Ocasio-Cortez told New York Magazine that "in any other country, Joe Biden and I would not be in the same party, but in America, we are."Since then, even as the rift within the party has grown more visible and she has repeatedly emphasized ideological differences with centrists, Ocasio-Cortez has turned into a reliable team player for the Democratic party leadership. She endorsed Biden and Kamala Harris in 2024, actively campaigned to protect Democratic incumbents against primary challenges, and worked closely with House Democratic leadership, such as Hakeem Jeffries, rather than fighting the party establishment.4. Foreign Policy And Defense SpendingEarly in her tenure, AOC aligned strictly with traditional left-wing anti-interventionism, opposing increases to military budgets and famously switching her vote to "present" on funding for Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system in 2021 amid intense pressure from progressive activists.Since then, the New York congresswoman has voted in favor of major U.S. foreign assistance packages, including military and humanitarian aid to Ukraine, while maintaining progressive positions on diplomacy and human rights.Will Ocasio-Cortez Run In 2028?Ocasio-Cortez’s name is one of the many that routinely come up when potential candidates for the 2028 presidential election are discussed. She is now 36, so above the minimum age of 35 required to be elected.Asked about a July poll by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center, which found that she was the leading Democrat for 2028 among would-be Democratic voters in the state with 22 percent of the vote, followed by Pete Buttigieg with 21 percent, Ocasio-Cortez told ABC News that she has not ruled out running."I haven’t ruled out the possibility, and I’m very humbled to the tremendous amount of support out there," she said, adding that her focus at the moment remains on the November midterms.Contact Newsweek editors on this story: Ben Kelly, Trevor Davies, Gray R.

Why Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Egg Freezing Decision is Sparking Speculation

Why Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Egg Freezing Decision is Sparking Speculation

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has opened up about her decision to freeze her eggs, while addressing the speculation that the personal choice could be connected to a possible 2028 presidential campaign. The 36-year-old New York Democrat revealed that she had begun the process and has been documenting parts of it for her followers on Instagram, including giving updates about the hormone injections required before the eggs can be collected. Democratic candidate opts to freeze eggs Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has had her eggs frozen. Credit: Andres Kudacki/Getty Images Ocasio-Cortez said egg freezing was something she had been considering and saving money for over a period of time. With Congress currently on its August recess, she said she felt that now was the right moment to undergo the procedure. “This is a choice that I am making to feel more in control of my life,” she said, adding that she felt “empowered” by the decision. The congresswoman also appeared to address assumptions that freezing her eggs could be linked to ambitions of becoming president in 2028. “The media will run up and ask a question like, ‘Are you going to run for this? Or are you going to run for that?’ And it is almost through this very two-dimensional, craven understanding or ambitious understanding of power,” Ocasio-Cortez said. She argued that politicians, like many people, make major decisions based on a range of personal circumstances rather than simply their ambitions for political power. “I think a lot of us actually approach these considerations or these decisions through the larger context of our lives as whole human beings and what is happening in our lives, as whole human beings,” she added. Ocasio-Cortez acknowledged that being so open about a deeply personal decision could potentially have political consequences. However, she said she wanted to use her experience to provide information to other women and make conversations about fertility more commonplace. The congresswoman even planned to continue her treatment while carrying out her political duties. She said she was scheduled to appear on ABC News' This Week and intended to administer her hormone injections in the programme's waiting room before going on air. “I want you all to see that. And because women can do anything, and I think it’s badass that I’m going to be giving myself shots in the green room [as I] get my glam on,” she said. Egg freezing involves stimulating the ovaries with hormones before doctors retrieve unfertilized eggs. Women typically undergo around two weeks of hormone treatment before the eggs are collected. The procedure can provide an option for women who want to help maintain some of their fertility while they are younger.

Credit: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez/Instagram Ocasio-Cortez also spoke about what she sees as a different standard applied to women in US politics compared with men. “This is just not something that men deal with,” she added. “Men run for office, or frankly, they interview for jobs, and people don’t think in the back of their mind, ‘Okay, this guy is running for office. How old is he? Oh, well, is he going to want to start a family,’” she added. Reflecting on her rapid rise in politics, she recalled being elected to Congress at a relatively young age. “I got sworn into the House of Representatives when I was 29 years old,” she stated. “There’s this flip side where you have to then grow up in the public eye in a time that most people usually get to grow more privately.” Featured Image.

Harry and Meghan's 'Cookie Queens' Faces Box Office Crumble

Harry and Meghan's 'Cookie Queens' Faces Box Office Crumble

Alysa Nahmias and Meghan Markle at a special screening of the film "Cookie Queens." Roadside Attractions via Getty Images Meghan Markle and Prince Harry‘s newest film project, “Cookie Queens,” crumbled at the box office over the weekend as the latest Hollywood misstep for the runaway royals.The documentary — which marked the Montecito duo’s theatrical feature debut as executive producers — was left with crumbs, grabbing just $735 per screen and opening at No. 15, according to Boxoffice Pro. That was five spots behind “CatVideoFest 2026,” a 70-minute theatrical compilation of the internet’s best cat videos.“Cookie Queens'” box office stumbles are the latest misstep from the runaway royals. Getty ImagesDespite strong reviews, the doc finished in 15th place during its opening weekend. Getty Images for Sundance Film FestivalOther indie films that opened ahead of “Cookie Queens” included “Tony” — the Anthony Bourdain biopic from A24 that debuted on just six screens — and two Indian imports, “DC” and “Korean Kanakaraju.”(Another popular tracking site, IMDb’s Box Office Mojo, had “Cookie Queens” at No. 13, but didn’t have numbers reported for the two Indian films.) Markle and Harry’s Archewell Productions hasn’t found traction with audiences since a tell-all docuseries about their exit from the royal family first launched a lucrative deal with Netflix. “Cookie Queens” arrived in theaters with a feel-good premise and critical raves. The Alysa Nahmias-helmed documentary entered the weekend with an impressive 94% rating on RottenTomatoes.That was five spots behind “CatVideoFest 2026,” a 70-minute theatrical compilation of the internet’s best cat videos. Instagram/@cookiequeensfilmBut the box-office numbers were half-baked at best, with the film about one intense Girl Scout Cookie season earning just $327,797 from 446 screens. (Compare that to the 2003 doc “Spellbound,” which was tonally similar and revolved around eight kids vying for the National Spelling Bee title. That film had a per-screen average of $17,508 in its opening weekend en route to a $7,457,710 haul during its full run over two decades ago.) Jeff Bock, senior media analyst at Exhibitor Relations, tells P6H that indie distributor Roadside Attractions made a head-scratching decision to release “Cookie Queens” during the summer corridor. “The documentary probably should have been released at the height of Girl Scout cookie season, when the cookies, and the girls selling them, are part of the national conversation,” Bock says. “For a small documentary, timing is marketing. It missed the very window that could have made it feel relevant and turned curiosity into ticket sales. Guess that’s the way the cookie crumbles.” The movie centers on one intense Girl Scout Cookie season. Instagram/@cookiequeensfilmHarry and Meghan’s Archewell has struggled to connect with audiences. Getty ImagesArchewell hasn’t struck gold with audiences since the banner’s first and only hit, the six-episode “Harry & Meghan” in 2023. Its Netflix deal is limping along after the couple originally negotiated a $100 million pact in 2020. Page Six previously reported that they’ve released multiple projects under the lucrative contract, but a “Polo” doc and the highly publicized series, “With Love, Meghan,” failed to connect.“With Love, Meghan,” which was used to promote Markle’s As Ever goods, was not picked up by Netflix for a third season amid falling ratings. Netflix also backed out of Markle’s As Ever brand earlier this year and segued to a looser first look deal with the duo last summer.In March, Variety wrote a blistering account of the state of the deal, noting that “the Sussexes’ perceived pattern of selling repackaged versions of the same story about their exit from royal life has exhausted Netflix.”“Cookie Queens'” poor showing was attributed to the decision to release the movie at the end of summer, rather than the height of girl scout cookie season. Roadside Attractions via Getty ImagesThe couple has struggled to follow-up its only hit, the six-episode docuseries “Harry & Meghan.” NetflixThe couple’s $25 million Spotify deal was also disastrous. They “mutually agreed to part ways” with Spotify in 2023 after their $25 million deal with the company yielded just one 12-episode season of Markle’s podcast, “Archetypes.”Still, those who worked with Markle on “Cookie Queens” said it was a pretty sweet recipe. “I have to say I really do like her,” says one source involved with the doc. “I haven’t met Harry, but she has been good to work with.”“Cookie Queens” made a buzzy debut at Sundance. Derek Shook / BACKGRID“Cookie Queens,” which made a buzzy debut at Sundance in January, was hoped to be the project that could reverse the curse for the former “Suits” star. The Hollywood Reporter called it “an eminently accessible and easily meme-able serving of American-girl cuteness, featuring a diverse cast of well-chosen young women.” At Sundance this year, a source told us of the film and the Sussexes’ involvement: “Clearly there’s a lot riding on this documentary. Honestly, it feels like this is their last chance at redemption and that this whole Hollywood experiment hangs in the balance.”We have reached out to the couple’s rep.

Vučić's Claims: Is Kurti Seeking Major Changes in Kosovo?

Vučić's Claims: Is Kurti Seeking Major Changes in Kosovo?

Presidenti i Serbia, Aleksandar Vučić, ka bërë një deklaratë të fortë lidhur me një takim të ardhshëm mes Albin Kurti dhe Emmanuel Macron.VAZHDO LEXIMIN ME POSHTE!Sipas Vuçiç, Kurti pritet të zhvillojë një vizitë në France, ku do të diskutojë çështje të rëndësishme politike dhe sigurie.Ai pretendon se kryeministri i Kosovo do të paraqesë disa kërkesa specifike gjatë këtij takimi.Një nga kërkesat kryesore, sipas Vuçiç, lidhet me rolin e forcave ndërkombëtare në veri të Kosovës.Ai deklaroi se Kurti mund të kërkojë që forcat e KFOR të largohen nga zona e sigurisë tokësore.Në vend të tyre, sipas këtij pretendimi, do të kërkohej vendosja e Forca e Sigurisë së Kosovës në atë zonë.Vuçiç e cilësoi këtë kërkesë si të rrezikshme dhe me pasoja të mundshme për stabilitetin në rajon.Ai theksoi se një lëvizje e tillë do të mund të ndikonte negativisht në sigurinë dhe paqen.Po ashtu, ai përmendi edhe një kërkesë tjetër që lidhet me kufizimin e përdorimit të armëve nga Serbia.Sipas tij, Kurti mund të kërkojë që Serbia të mos përdorë armë kundër shqiptarëve në asnjë rrethanë.Vuçiç u shpreh se këto ide janë të papranueshme dhe shpreson që ato të mos mbështeten nga aleatët ndërkombëtarë.Ai shtoi se nuk beson që NATO apo presidenti francez do të mbështesin kërkesa të tilla.Sipas tij, një vendim i tillë do të ishte një kërcënim i drejtpërdrejtë për paqen dhe stabilitetin në rajon. Nga ana tjetër, deri tani nuk ka një konfirmim zyrtar nga qeveria e Kosovës për këto pretendime.Deklaratat e Vuçiç bazohen në informacion që ai pretendon se e ka marrë nga burime brenda rrethit të Kurtit.Takimi mes Kurtit dhe Macronit pritet të trajtojë edhe çështje të tjera politike dhe të dialogut mes Kosovës dhe Serbisë.Ky zhvillim vjen në një moment të ndjeshëm për marrëdhëniet në rajon.Dialogu mes dy vendeve vazhdon të jetë një nga sfidat kryesore për stabilitetin në Ballkan.Prandaj, çdo deklaratë apo kërkesë e tillë shihet me vëmendje të madhe nga faktori ndërkombëtar.Mbetet për t’u parë se çfarë do të ndodhë konkretisht pas takimit dhe nëse këto pretendime do të konfirmohen apo jo.

Brad Pitt's Surprising Confession: Breaking Sobriety After Seven Years

Brad Pitt's Surprising Confession: Breaking Sobriety After Seven Years

Brad Pitt revealed he broke his sobriety after seven years.“I was sober for seven years. And then I got back off the wagon,” he confessed with a laugh in an Esquire interview published on Monday.“In a more restrained manner. I got overconfident a couple times, went, Yep, nope, not good for me,” he explained. “Not in big quantities.”Brad Pitt (seen here on the cover of Esquire Magazine) revealed he broke his sobriety after seven years. CHANTAL ANDERSON/ EsquirePitt (pictured here) told the outlet he “got back off the wagon.” CHANTAL ANDERSON/ EsquirePitt (seen here) admitted he “got overconfident a couple times” before he decided drinking was “not good for me.” CHANTAL ANDERSON/ EsquirePitt’s sobriety came up after he offered the interviewer some wine during their sit-down at the actor’s $12 million Los Angeles home.After revealing he’s no longer sober, Pitt explained he “can have a few” glasses of wine, but he “can’t have a lot.”“I have to be professional about it,” he told the reporter. The Oscar winner (seen here) said he “can have a few glasses of wine” but “not a lot.” CHANTAL ANDERSON/ EsquirePitt (pictured above) got sober in 2016 after his split from Angelina Jolie. CHANTAL ANDERSON/ EsquireElsewhere in the interview, Pitt — who split from ex-wife Angelina Jolie in 2016 — revealed he felt “suicidal” while navigating “one little period” of “family stuff.”“The pain was so oppressive that — I wasn’t going to act on this, but I could feel — I could feel the cold steel of the bullet in my head, and it felt like relief,” the “Fight Club” actor said.Pitt quit drinking after an alleged 2016 drunken plane incident which is said to have contributed to the downfall of his and Jolie’s marriage.Jolie, 51, claimed in court documents that her then-husband physically harmed her and one of their six kids — Maddox, 24, Pax, 22, Zahara, 21, Shiloh, 20, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 18.The “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” co-stars were declared legally single in 2019 and settled their divorce last year.Pitt (seen here with Jolie in 2015) was allegedly drunk during an altercation on a plane that is said to contributed to the downfall of their marriage.

Last year, Pitt detailed his “amazing” first AA meeting on Dax Shephard’s “Armchair Expert” podcast, recalling being “pretty much on [his] knees” and needing “to wake the f–k up in some areas.”He explained, “I was trying anything and everything, anything anyone threw at me. … It was a difficult time. I needed rebooting.”Pitt (pictured above in 2014) is allegedly estranged from his eldest children.

Alfred Cako's Alarming Predictions: Are We Facing a Global Crisis?

Alfred Cako's Alarming Predictions: Are We Facing a Global Crisis?

Një deklaratë e fundit e Alfred Cako ka tërhequr vëmendje të madhe në rrjetet sociale, ku ai paralajmëron për zhvillime të rënda globale, duke përmendur mundësinë e një lufte të madhe dhe më pas rikthimin e një pandemie. Këto komente janë bërë gjatë një interviste, ku ai ka ndarë pikëpamjet e tij mbi situatën ndërkombëtare dhe drejtimin që mund të marrë bota në vitet e ardhshme.VAZHDO LEXIMIN ME POSHTE!Sipas Alfred Cako, tensionet gjeopolitike në rritje, konfliktet rajonale dhe rivalitetet mes fuqive të mëdha po krijojnë një situatë të brishtë në nivel global. Ai argumenton se këto zhvillime mund të përshkallëzohen në një përplasje më të gjerë, duke rrezikuar stabilitetin ndërkombëtar dhe sigurinë e shumë vendeve.Në analizën e tij, ai përmend edhe faktorë të tjerë si krizat ekonomike, sfidat energjetike dhe ndryshimet politike, të cilat sipas tij po kontribuojnë në rritjen e pasigurisë globale. Këto elemente, të kombinuara, mund të krijojnë një zinxhir ngjarjesh që çojnë drejt krizave të mëdha me pasoja afatgjata për njerëzimin.Megjithatë, ekspertët e fushave përkatëse theksojnë se deklarata të tilla duhet të trajtohen me kujdes dhe analizë kritike. Parashikimet për luftëra globale apo pandemi janë jashtëzakonisht komplekse dhe varen nga shumë faktorë të ndërlidhur, të cilët nuk mund të parashikohen me saktësi nga opinione individuale.Institucione ndërkombëtare si Organizata Botërore e Shëndetësisë dhe Organizata e Kombeve të Bashkuara vazhdojnë të monitorojnë situatat globale, duke punuar për parandalimin e konflikteve dhe përgatitjen ndaj krizave të mundshme shëndetësore. Këto organizata bazohen në të dhëna shkencore dhe analiza të strukturuara për të vlerësuar rreziqet reale.Analistët ndërkombëtarë vlerësojnë se, edhe pse bota përballet me sfida serioze si tensionet politike, ndryshimet klimatike dhe kërcënimet shëndetësore, kapacitetet për menaxhimin e krizave janë përmirësuar ndjeshëm krahasuar me dekadat e kaluara. Bashkëpunimi global dhe avancimet teknologjike kanë luajtur një rol kyç në këtë drejtim.Deklaratat e Alfred Cako kanë nxitur diskutime të shumta në rrjetet sociale, ku reagimet janë të ndara. Një pjesë e publikut i konsideron këto komente si paralajmërime që duhen marrë seriozisht, ndërsa të tjerë i shohin si spekulime apo skenarë ekstremë pa bazë të mjaftueshme faktike.Frika nga një konflikt i madh global apo një pandemi e re është e kuptueshme, sidomos pas përvojave të fundit që ka kaluar bota. Megjithatë, ekspertët nënvizojnë rëndësinë e informimit të saktë dhe të verifikuar, duke shmangur përhapjen e panikut të panevojshëm.Në të njëjtën kohë, është e rëndësishme të kuptohet se diskutime të tilla shpesh reflektojnë pasigurinë që ekziston në një botë në ndryshim të vazhdueshëm. Shpejtësia e zhvillimeve globale dhe kompleksiteti i marrëdhënieve ndërkombëtare e bëjnë të vështirë parashikimin e së ardhmes me saktësi të plotë.Sipas vetë Alfred Cako, skenarët që ai përmend përfshijnë jo vetëm përshkallëzim të konflikteve, por edhe pasoja të mundshme shëndetësore në shkallë globale. Kjo ka shtuar edhe më shumë debatet rreth asaj nëse këto janë paralajmërime reale apo thjesht interpretime personale të situatës.Në përfundim, tema të tilla vazhdojnë të ngjallin interes dhe debat të gjerë publik. Ato theksojnë nevojën për një qasje të balancuar ndaj informacionit, ku analizat profesionale dhe burimet e besueshme mbeten thelbësore për të kuptuar zhvillimet ndërkombëtare.Në fund, pyetja që mbetet është: a janë këto paralajmërime të bazuara në realitet, apo thjesht reflektim i frikërave dhe pasigurive të kohës sonë? Përgjigjja kërkon kujdes, analizë dhe mbi të gjitha, mbështetje në fakte të verifikuara. PV: 5,699
