Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

I don't want to bump the Omar thread because that thread was gross.

But if you're Rep. Omar, why still be a Democrat?

Shameful response from the party and now the far-right pile on is flying.

Perhaps the only politician in either the House or Senate that you could argue is "brave" to any capacity. Consistently amazing politics too.

I’m surprised that Trump isn’t defending her. He said something very similar and he stood by it. He was asked about how something Putin did and how bad it was and he equated it by saying “you think we’re so innocent”.

She kicks the sacred cow. Never question the goodness of America with inconvenient truths.

I also find it funny when they go after her or a Democrat as being anti-Semitic meanwhile they are sitting next to Marge Greene aka Jewish space laser lady.

this is not really accurate, there are ports of entry one has to claim asylum. not simply anywhere across the border.

WhyTF are you so pathologically unable to answer a direct question when it challenges your pet narrative?

Did Ocasio-Cortez say what you said she said? I’ll answer for you since you are far, far too much of a cowardly cockwomble to do so.

No.

Just because they are nice people and it may seem like the humanitarian thing to do does not mean we can keep affording to do it. These people are coming from screwed up countries that have been screwed up for years and have shown no signs of improving (or curbing their population growth). Why do we have to keep footing the bill???

This is an odd point to be making when there are like 10 million vacant job openings in the US currently.

Special chose to tell us we should criticize AOC's statement. Her statement was a response to Harris's statement. So he must have seen both. Harris's statement was incomplete in the same way AOC's was. I am curious why he picked on AOC. He can criticize both if he wants. One might think he's biased.

Or the immigrants could do them. Also, there’s a certain irony in you constantly saying “if you don’t like how little you get paid quit” and then they did that and now you’re complaining that they quit.

I never said that AOC said, these don't matter.

I quoted what she said. she did not provide an accurate enough account of asylum, either stupid on her part or on purpose because it has clearly manipulated some.

seeking asylum is legal, but not anywhere along the border. that is when everything is normal, rather than now when the border is overwhelmed and a problem, which is why Kamala Harris said what she did.

Harris main statement was not to come. that is something that should be said right now, there is a crisis at the border whether some Democrats want to admit it or not.
