Disgraced comedian Roseanne Barr may still be out of a job because of her racist remarks, but that hasn't kept her from broadcasting her opinions.
Her latest target is Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).
<p>In a recently posted Youtube video, Barr refers to the congresswoman as a "Farrakhan-loving b**ch." She continues:</p><p><div id="action_button_container"></div></p><blockquote>"I don't even remember her name. The bug-eyed b**ch that looks like a realtor...Lefty. Dumb ass. Dumb asses. Dumb as they get."</blockquote><p>Watch below:</p><p><span style="display:block;position:relative;padding-top:56.25%;" class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="d600efbcab4b0b35cf3c7739b6c9307a"><iframe type="lazy-iframe" data-runner-src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/B2k-XW-gYHc?rel=0" width="100%" height="auto" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" style="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;"></iframe></span></p><p>Barr then accused Ocasio-Cortez of costing people hundreds of jobs, presumably referring to Amazon's recently abandoned plan to build a hub in Queens, New York City. The plan was reviled by the community and Ocasio-Cortez lent her voice to the efforts against it.</p><p>Barr also accused the Congresswoman and Democrats of being paid to decimate communities.</p><p>Americans on Twitter were underwhelmed.</p><p></p><div id="fd2ed" class="rm-shortcode" data-rm-shortcode-id="1PN5OH1575238283"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet twitter-custom-tweet" data-twitter-tweet-id="1098378662296997888" data-partner="rebelmouse"><div style="margin:1em 0">@PageSix @nypost Really?
