Create Account If the U.S. Democratic Party is spiralling, blame Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. That's according to Chris Cuomo, who said on his podcast on Tuesday that the New York congresswoman is a 'symbol of the demise' of the Democrats and urged the party to move on from her. The Chris Cuomo Project host pointed out that 'woke' Ocasio-Cortez is about 'weighing the needs and wants of the few over the many' and backing her and candidates like her will ultimately lead the downfall of the Dems. 'AOC is a major perpetrator and symbol of the demise of the Democratic Party by going too far down the road of favouring the few over the many,' he reiterated. Later in the episode, Cuomo continued to denounce the democratic socialist, warning Democrats that any attention given to her helps the rise of dangerous ideologies into the mainstream.

'I think you're making a mistake paying attention to AOC and this new deference to radical left and radical fundamentalist and radical Islamist sympathies. I think it's a huge f***–g mistake,' Cuomo declared. RECOMMENDED VIDEO He added that throwing support Ocasio-Cortez's way would only lead to backlash like they've never experienced before. 'If you [Democrats] think trans sports got you in a pickle, you're about to be in a whole bucket of brine,' Cuomo added. There has been chatter that Ocasio-Cortez could be the face of the Democratic Party in four years if she decides on a presidential run after reports suggested her significant grassroots support could enable her to make a run for U.S. president at the end of Donald Trump's second term in office in 2028.

Meanwhile, Cuomo's brother, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, is currently challenging another democratic socialist, Zohran Mamdani, in the New York City mayoral race. While he conceded the Democratic nomination last month to Mamdani last month, Cuomo is still running in the general election. Crime Entertainment Canada World Celebrity

Chris Cuomo says AOC is 'symbol of the demise of the Democratic Party,' urges Dems to move on from her
Chris Cuomo said on his podcast Tuesday that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., is a "symbol of the demise" of the Democrats and urged the party to move on from her. Cuomo warned Democrats that backing candidates like Ocasio-Cortez — who prioritize the needs of "the few over the many" — will ultimately lead to the party's downfall, calling attention given to her a "huge f-----g mistake." The former CNN anchor stated that the current meaning of "woke" is about "weighing the needs and wants of the few over the many," and that the Democrats are making that mistake once again by legitimizing the New York City congresswoman. Chris Cuomo Slams Chris Murphy For 'Cheap Shot' Suggestion That Trump Funding Cuts Played Part In Texas Floods "AOC is a major perpetrator and symbol of the demise of the Democratic Party by going too far down the road of favoring the few over the many," he said. Later on in the show, Cuomo continued his criticisms of Ocasio-Cortez, a democratic socialist, warning Democrats that spotlighting her is aiding the rise of dangerous ideologies into the mainstream. Read On The Fox News App "I think you're making a mistake paying attention to AOC and this new deference to radical left and radical fundamentalist and radical Islamist sympathies. I think it's a huge f-----g mistake," he asserted. Cuomo reiterated that Democrats are "once again valuing the few over the many," and warned that the "pickle" they are getting themselves into by supporting Ocasio-Cortez may bring backlash upon them like they've never seen before.

Mamdani beat Cuomo out for the Democratic nomination last month, but Cuomo is still running in the general election. Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville seems to be on the same page as Chris Cuomo, calling out Democrats in April for allowing Ocasio-Cortez and Sen. Bernie Sanders, D-Vt., to define the party. Carville emphasized the party's deep talent pool that they should be showcasing to help redefine its identity, rather than the ultra-progressive platform that representatives like Ocasio-Cortez promote. "There's truly depth and talent in the Democratic Party and the faster that we can get them on the field and people seeing them, and the sooner we can get people like Bernie Sanders and AOC not defining who the party is, the better off we're going to be," Carville argued.

Chris Cuomo slams Chris Murphy for 'cheap shot' suggestion that Trump funding cuts played part in Texas floods
NewsNation anchor Chris Cuomo blasted Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., on Tuesday for his "cheap shot" suggestion that President Donald Trump's cuts to federal funding played a role in the devastating Texas Floods earlier this week. Cuomo accused the senator of taking a "cheap shot against dead kids" to score political points against Trump, and informed his audience that he no longer wants Murphy on the program as a guest. "Democratic Senator Chris Murphy, I've been trying to get him on the show, now I don't want him," the ex-CNN host said. Murphy's X post read: "Accurate weather forecasting helps avoid fatal disasters. There are consequences to Trump's brainless attacks on public workers, like meteorologists." Cuomo noted that the union for the National Weather Service (NWS), which has been critical of Trump's cuts in the past, put out a statement confirming that the NWS was fully staffed at the time of the floods, contradicting Murphy's assertion. "Meteorologists are not faulting the National Weather Service. They're noting that they began to escalate the flood warnings as much as 12 hours in advance of the floods — so shut up Murphy!" Cuomo exclaimed. Furthering his point on politicians using the floods in Texas to score points, Cuomo argued that the politicization of tragedies is "killing us." "We have to see that the interests of the many are being held hostage by the obsessions of the few — on both sides," he said. "They are killing us!" Earlier in the show, Cuomo detested the "disgusting" widespread politicization of the disaster on social media, making him question if we're even "a country anymore." "What brings us together? What is our common concern?" he questioned. "We're just dueling factions of fanatics." Murphy wasn't the only person Cuomo called out for their political rhetoric surrounding the floods. Cuomo also denounced Houston pediatrician Dr. Christina Propst for her now-deleted Facebook post wishing all "non-MAGA voters" to be "safe and dry," while hoping that Trump voters "get what they voted for." Propst was fired for her remarks.

Jeffrey Epstein's brother reveals why he refuses to believe death was suicide despite Pam Bondi claims
's brother said he 'laughed at how stupid' the Trump administration's handling of the 'Epstein files' has been and revealed he doesn't believe their assertion that the financier's death was a suicide. The notorious pedophile's brother Mark told NewsNation's Chris Cuomo on Tuesday that he was not convinced by the White House 's memo this week that said there is no evidence Epstein was murdered or kept a long-suspected 'client list.' 'Every time they say something or do something to try to quash the fact that he was most likely murdered, they just put their foot further down their mouths,' Mark Epstein said. He particularly singled out FBI Director Kash Patel for his role in the Epstein files' release, noting how he U-turned from an ardent skeptic over Epstein's death to now insisting there was no 'cover up.' Mark pointed to Patel's citing of his career as a prosecutor when he said that 'you know a suicide when you see it', despite Patel having no medical degree or qualifications as a forensic pathologist. 'The question that popped into my mind was, first of all, how many suicides has he seen? Is he a forensic pathologist? Does he have a medical degree?' Mark questioned. 'Does he have a certificate that he passed a CPR course? Does he have a Boy Scout merit badge for first aid? What is he basing his expertise on?' Mark said that Patel's assertion over Epstein's death in 2019 contradicts what Dr. Kristin Roman, a medical examiner for New York City who conducted the autopsy on Epstein, said at the time. 'She came out of the autopsy and said she couldn't call it a suicide because it looked too much like a homicide,' he claimed. Dr. Michael Baden, who was hired by Mark Epstein at the time to be present at the autopsy, said at the time that Epstein suffered injuries that were more consistent with a homicide than a suicide. He said Epstein had small burst capillaries in his face, mouth and eyes, and also had three distinct fractures on his jaw. 'I have never seen three fractures like this in a suicidal hanging,' he said, per CBS News. Mark Epstein noted on NewsNation on Tuesday: 'Baden, who was there on my behalf, who witnessed the autopsy, also concurred that it looked more like a homicide than a suicide.' 'Now, was Kash Patel in that autopsy room? No,' he continued. 'Was Kash Patel in the prison when they found Jeffrey? No, I don't think so, and if he was there that raises an even bigger question.' The brother of the infamous financier is not alone in doubting the White House's stance on Epstein's death, with former Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson also wading into the controversy on Tuesday. Carlson said he believes the government is 'covering up' the Epstein files to protect US and Israeli intelligence services, and said it was 'obvious' that Bondi was 'covering up crimes'. Amid mounting scrutiny over Trump's handling of the scandal, Carlson said he is not convinced that the president was covering his own alleged ties to Epstein, and felt the reason is hinged on espionage. 'I don't think he's that guy, actually,' Carlson said of Trump. 'I don't think he likes creepy sex stuff.' Rather, Carlson floated a more sinister plot to protect the US and Israeli intelligence agencies was driving Trump's response. 'The only other explanation that I can think of... is that intel services are at the very center of this story, U.S. and Israeli, and they're being protected,' he said. The issue of Trump's handling of the Epstein files led the president to snap at a reporter on Tuesday when they asked Bondi about the Justice Department's internal review of the documents. Trump brushed off fury from his MAGA base over the abrupt conclusion of the Epstein probe this week, and accused the reporter who quizzed Bondi of 'desecrating' the deadly Texas flood tragedy. 'Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein?' Trump lamented to reporters present for his six-month Cabinet meeting. 'This guy's been talked about for years.'
