Your words:

You think it's racism and sexism. I've explained repeatedly - she's a loon because she cannot confine herself to reality.

Do you understand the "the media" isn't "the people"? The media will always serve as the Merchants of Outrage. There is no evidence of any widespread movement of outraged MAGA people. Maybe ANTIFA , are they pro-Trump? Who are these haters you refer to? The guys who beat up Smollett? 

I don't hate AOC and I don't think anyone here hates her. I'm not the least bit angry, I expect AOC is doing everything she can to ruin Democrat electoral chances. Dems are the ones threatening to primary her, do you not understand why?

By the way, what is the etc. meant to be?

A little birdie told me something . . . listen closely.  AOC perfected her twerking game in the Bronx and she got a big ol' Latina bootay.  And the word is she wants to GRIND it on you, Texas Hammer.  Rub it all over you.  She might even put in a call to Sara Palin for a little Left Wing/Right Wing tag team on YOU, big guy.  Sexy Mama and Wayward Daughter sexy time.  Waddaya think?  Sound good?  Does it get your vote?

I don't have a problem with anybody entering voluntarily into an employment relationship.  Even if the agreed upon salary is below market rate.

The comment had two purposes, one of which was to compliment her CoS. Not everything is an attack.  I thought that AOC showed out quite well yesterday, and it is a compliment to both her and her staff. 

And her CoS is still underpaid. 

Tom Brady is underpaid and has been for years. If her QB is willing to take less money so there's more to go around elsewhere, that's a team strength.

Tom Brady's a Socialist? Like I needed another reason to hate him.

You didn't know that players on NE take less than market value to help the rest of the team? It ain't just him. Spread the hate around. Dirk did the same thing in Dallas. I don't expect you to understand these ideas.

Nah, it just wasn't funny. Kobe wasn't exactly supportive either when he and Dirk were up for a deal and Dirk took less than he could have gotten. We're talking about her CoS. Apparently it's a point of contention that they are underpaid. 

That doesn't even register on my giveashit meter.

In response to someone saying she was better at questioning Cohen than her colleagues with legal backgrounds -
 

 


She has a point.

 

Absolutely. The only thing better than more lawyers in Congress is more waiters in Congress.

Looks like a much needed reckoning.  Good move to get this out of the way now.

Reps from solid dem districts turning the screws on moderates from swing districts that have them majority control. Sounds like a solid strategy.

You're being sarcastic, but it's an absolutely necessary strategy. There is no point in having majority control if you're gridlocked by Republicans with "Democrat" titles.

Corbin Trent, a spokesman for Ocasio-Cortez, said she told her colleagues that Democrats who side with Republicans “are putting themselves on a list.”

“She said that when activists ask her why she had to vote for a gun safety bill that also further empowers an agency that forcibly injects kids with psychotropic drugs, they’re going to want a list of names and she’s going to give it to them,” Trent said, referring to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Triggering the blowup were Wednesday’s votes on a bill to expand federal background checks for gun purchases. Twenty-six moderate Democrats joined Republicans in amending the legislation, adding a provision requiring that ICE be notified if an illegal immigrant seeks to purchase a gun.

Good. Great. I have no idea what the problem is.

The reason why it's good comes later in the article...

Republicans, during their past eight-year majority, maintained remarkable discipline on these procedural votes. Democrats did not manage to pass a single one from 2011 through 2018. But Democrats have already lost two this year, and during their previous majority from 2007 through 2010, they lost roughly one in every five.

Would be really nice if AOC could speak out in unqualified support for her colleague Ilhan Omar, who is still being relentlessly smeared for her temerity in pointing out that Palestinians are in fact human and the lobby in this country directed towards enabling their oppression is a moral abomination.

Posted in the Pelosi thread too.

Fox News should get 2-3 days of outrage segments out of this.

Yeah a scam artist mixed in with 3 people  who want to fundamentally change America. Little do they realize Pelosi is one of the reasons they want to change America. Useful idiots and a magazine not relevant since the early 70's.

America is fundamentally changing.

These women reflect that.

Conservatives cannot stop the change, they can only slow it.

He's not a leftist.  I suspect it's one of the OrcaCookie socks that will begin as a boilerplate left of center poster then fly off the rails with bigoted nonsense.  ADHD is an example and there have been several others that fit the general pattern.  The board is better off without him.  They're easily startled but they'll soon be back and in greater numbers.

People are negging this because I don’t want to hang out with a stranger from the internet. Tolerant right like you read about

No, they're negging it because you appear to have accidentally showed up to this thread in your white sheets and robes, rather than leaving it behind in the closet where it should've remained.

I mean, I'd go further than that and prefer you not be a racist, but ... baby steps, right?
