AOC Cornell event opens with crowd chanting 'from the river to the sea'

Key Points:

• Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez participated in a "Students vs. Billionaires" town hall event hosted by Cornell University's Young Democratic Socialists of America, where attendees chanted the anti-Israel slogan "from the river to the sea."
• The event featured strong anti-capitalist rhetoric, with speakers criticizing Cornell for prioritizing profit over students and expressing solidarity with oppressed peoples, including calls for a "student intifada."
• AOC accused Cornell of censorship and urged collective action against crackdowns on activism, emphasizing the power of large numbers in protest.
• Despite efforts to mobilize Democratic voters, recent polling shows that 55% of registered voters have an unfavorable view of the Democratic Socialists of America, highlighting national skepticism toward the socialist movement.
• The GOP is using this sentiment as part of its midterm strategy to frame the election as a choice against socialism and the Democratic Party's left wing.
