This is what happens when Congress doesn’t listen to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. John Iadarola and Francesca Fiorentini break it down on The Damage Report.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) that would ban the US military from recruiting on Twitch failed a House vote Thursday evening. Had it passed, it would have been an amendment to the House Committee on Appropriations bill, which is part of the process in how the Pentagon’s annual budget is set. Ocasio-Cortez tweeted her frustration at trying to win over her colleagues Thursday evening: Ocasio-Cortez gave an impassioned speech on the House floor in advance of the vote on Thursday. “Children should not be targeted in general for many marketing purposes in addition to military service,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “Right now, currently, children on platforms such as Twitch are bombarded with banner ads linked to recruitment signup forms that can be submitted by children as young as 12 years old. These are not education outreach programs for the military.”" #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

McEnany’s condemnation comes one day after President Donald Trump suggested the United States postpone its own election in November. “This action undermines the democratic processes and freedoms that have underpinned Hong Kong’s prosperity,” McEnany said at a news briefing Friday morning. Citing a worsening Covid-19 outbreak in Hong Kong, Lam had announced earlier Friday that the semi-autonomous Chinese city would push back to Sept. 5, 2021 the Legislative Council elections previously scheduled to take place in a little over a month." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

The question that everybody out there has is why?” Bash followed up. “Why did this happen? Why was the government particularly — I mean, you’re the coordinator for the federal response. Why weren’t you able to stop this from spreading and continuing to spread uncontrollably as it is now?”" #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

Steve Mnuchin and Trump administration have been exposed by the unemployment truth. John Iadarola and Francesca Fiorentini break it down on The Damage Report.

The findings suggested that in the aggregate, the expanded benefits "neither encouraged layoffs during the pandemic's onset nor deterred people from returning to work once businesses began reopening." "Workers facing larger expansions in unemployment insurance benefits have returned to their previous jobs over time at similar rates as others," the economists said. "We find no evidence that more generous benefits disincentivize work either at the onset of the expansion or as firms looked to return to business over time. In future research, it will be important to assess whether the same results hold when states move to reopen." The $600-per-week unemployment benefits that millions of Americans have been receiving under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act expire at the end of July. This comes as members of the Trump administration have been critical of these benefits to unemployed Americans, saying they discourage people from returning to work." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

I feel like there was a lot of bouncing and bikinis. And he was there, and he granted me an interview. He was married to Marla Maples at the time, and I said, ‘Can I call you Mr. Maples?’ And I think he walked away from me at that point.” Nearly a quarter-century later, Trump is much more than a distant memory—and far less amusing." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks

The Republican Party is imploding over the next post-Trump leader. John Iadarola and Francesca Fiorentini break it down on The Damage Report. Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport Read more here: https://www.politico.com/news/2020/08/03/republican-leadership-battle-trump-389789 "The maneuvering for power in a possible post-Trump world has already broken out among House Republicans — a worrisome preview for the GOP of potentially chaotic leadership fights this fall. The party’s long-simmering divides were largely papered over after Donald Trump won the White House in 2016. But members expect the truce among the GOP’s warring factions to crumble if Trump’s presidency ends, and the current leadership could face the fallout. How that will shake out for Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, Minority Whip Steve Scalise and GOP Conference Chairwoman Liz Cheney is not completely certain. But according to interviews with over a dozen Republican lawmakers and aides, there’s a growing sense that if Trump loses the White House — and the GOP fails to make meaningful gains in the House — the fight for the future of the party will play out in challenges across leadership." #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks
