Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

I whether talk about the Trumpster becoming insurrectionists and how the Proud Boys are considered a terrorist group in Canada but not here.

I whether talk about the Trumpster becoming insurrectionists and how the Proud Boys are considered a terrorist group in Canada but not here. Or how one republican member of Congress was talking about putting a bullet in Pelosi's head at one time.

All the republican posters have is AOC and whether or not she was scared. pitiful if this past for political discourse for y'all.

AOC said she was almost murdered. that is not reality. she wasn't, almost murdered. bad enough she said Ted Cruz almost had her murdered when nothing supports that.

attempted murder is a crime. this person was not charged with that.

A Texas man who participated in the attack on the US Capitol on 6 January has been charged with threatening to “assassinate” the New York Democratic representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

people have hated AOC for awhile, wherever she is right now she might be scared, but she's likely not in danger right now as we speak either.

What kind of person are you?

no that is not the conversation.

that isn't what she is being criticized for, that is more spin from the left.

I said no doubt she was scared. but based on where she was, nobody was there (her office) to harm her.

people should be able to criticize/call out/condemn any one of those that were rioting and want them held accountable, while also criticizing AOC for things she has said about this incident.

I was once told by a doctor he suspected a brain tumor.
Even though that didn't turn out to be the case, until I got MRI results, my fear was still quite real.

You can say she overreacted, maybe, but you weren't there to know if you'd have reacted differently.

So your criticism of her reaction is based on her not knowing information not available to her at the time?
If I have one, it would be more about her inference after the fact that people may have been involved in creating the situation that she'd have no knowledge were actually involved.

it was after that she went on to say Ted Cruz almost had her murdered, at this point knowing that was not true. when confronted with this she not only continues to lie she feels the need to bring up something about being a sexual assault survivor. she is manipulative and always has this need to be the victim.

she was afraid at the time, but even after knowing this was Capitol police that was actually there to help, has she even once been thankful for that? I haven't see that, just vilifying him as if he was a threat.

And you honestly think these two things are of equal weight? The actions of criminals and the reactions of a fearful person who thought she was in danger?

Once again, what kind of person are you? You have spent way far more time condemning AOC than the raiders.

There are investigations of capitol police helping the raiders. This is becoming an AOC bash party of one. Listening to you, the worst thing that happens on Jan. 6th was AOC over reactions.

I have never said or even suggested that they were equal, but that doesn't mean AOC is not worth criticizing.

on PSD (left dominated), not surprising. on social media, not even close.

clearly the worst was the rioting, but lets have some bipartisan and criticize where it's due.

Five people died during that raid, of course, that can be a frightening situation. Add in all the death threats she has received, yes, she could have been terrified. If I saw a bunch of rabid white people attacking the building I am in, I would be terrified too, especially if they have targeted me in the past. You are another piece of crap who spin bs on people. I could've had a Snicker bar while typing this. waste of time

Exactly. His logic here is offensively stupid.
