Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is flexing her muscles inside the Democratic Party.

The fake news media are ignoring the real story.

And now, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has formed one secret alliance that will terrify the hell out of every American.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani sent shockwaves when the three socialist candidates he endorsed in New York congressional primaries swept to victory.

It represented a push by the socialist base to seize control of the Democratic Party.

But what no one knew until now is that Mamdani launched this power play as part of a secret alliance with Ocasio-Cortez, with whom Mamdani conspired every step of the way.

Mamdani endorsed in the Congressional primaries because Ocasio-Cortez didn’t want to step on any toes inside her caucus or home state.

“The heads-up about the Darializa Avila Chevalier endorsement was part of a wider communication stream in which Mamdani alerted Ocasio-Cortez ahead of time about endorsements he planned on making in the city’s June 23 congressional primaries, according to the two people, who were granted anonymity to discuss the private conversations. Mamdani also briefed Ocasio-Cortez before endorsing progressive Brad Lander’s successful campaign against Rep. Dan Goldman and democratic socialist Claire Valdez’s victorious bid for retiring Rep. Nydia Velázquez’s seat,” POLITICO reported.

But then Ocasio-Cortez endorsed socialists running in New York State House races that Mamdani needed to steer clear of to avoid angering legislators whose votes he needed for his communist agenda.

“Ocasio-Cortez — who opted against endorsing in New York City congressional primaries this cycle — gave Mamdani advance notice before backing three democratic socialist candidates running against state Assembly incumbents last month, said the people with knowledge of the communications. All of her endorsed candidates won their races, too,” POLITICO also reported. 

It was an inside-outside game plan executed with ruthless efficiency.

“They supplemented each other where they could,” one source told POLITICO.

The ultimate goal of this alliance is to harness the growing energy of the socialist base to propel Ocasio-Cortez to the White House in 2028.

“Ranking as one of the country’s most popular Democrats in a recent poll, Mamdani could prove a key surrogate for Ocasio-Cortez no matter what her next career move is. Ocasio-Cortez gave Mamdani a significant boost when she endorsed him less than three weeks before the June 2025 Democratic mayoral primary that he won,” POLITICO reported.

Ocasio-Cortez is marking herself as the leader of the Democratic Party, and everyone has two options: follow or get out of the way.

“They’re letting other Democrats know that this is a big tent party, but they’re also letting them know that this is the train going forward and this is what voters want,” New York Democratic strategist Yvette Buckner told POLITICO about the Ocasio-Cortez-Mamdani endorsement alliance. “They’re putting people on notice that this is not just an idea anymore; this is a strong actual faction that’s forming.”
