Ocasio-Cortez wants to weaponize banks

Democrat Representative Ocasio-Cortez asked a Wells Fargo bank official some really odd questions but to be fair there was a method, and evil method, to her madness.

Ocasio-Cortez's statements, poorly disguised as questions, said that if a bank lends to a company and then that company does something that Ocasio-Cortez doesn't like the bank should be held responsible.

In the hearings the example used was Wells Fargo lending to a pipeline company being responsible if the pipeline leaked.  In a latter tweet she cited the fact that if a bartender over serves a patron the bartender can be held liable for the patrons subsequent actions.

The problem with her tweet is that the correct analogy, which apparently escaped her, was that the bank who loaned money to the owner of the bar would be held responsible for the bartender over serving a patron.

After all in her pipeline example it was the pipeline employees that made the mistake, not designing the pipeline to prevent leaks, but she wanted to blame the bank.

Ocasio-Cortez's purpose is clear she wants to use banks to drive businesses she doesn't like but can't legally prevent out of business.  She's following Democrat New York Governor Coumo's lead; he's tried to get banks to stop doing business with the NRA in order to get around the First and Second Amendments--after all if gun related organizations can't work with banks they can't stay in business.

This is all blatantly hypocritical because Cuomo would scream in rage if some conservative governor used the same tactic against a group he likes such as Antifa or Black Lives Matter.  Similarly it's unlikely we'll see Ocasio-Cortez demanding that banks be held liable for people killed by weed intoxicated drivers because the banks loaned money to the pot shop where they got their drugs.

It all makes sense once we realize that the majority of Democrat politicians are fascists at heart. That's why they constantly go around the law in order to impose their will on the people.  There is absolutely no legal or Constitutional basis to hold banks liable for the mistakes of the companies they loan to yet both Cuomo and Ocasio-Cortez are threatening those institutions with a deep state witch hunt, a real threat given the weaponization of the IRS/FBI/DOJ and the House under Democrat control, if they do business with perfectly legal companies that Democrats don't like.
