#Colbert #AOC #AlexandriaOcasioCortez #RepOcasioCortez
She’s smart, compassionate and just knows how to make politcs humane. Unlike the other lot in the house and congress. She’s always a breath of fresh air.
ReplyExplain again why Mar-A-Lardo was not arrested right after his insurrection like in any normal country? In January 2021. Why none of his top-level accomplices were punished? Why Biden retained Trump’s FBI director Wray? Why Biden made the same guy his Attorney General that Mitch McConnell wanted to be Trump’s FBI director?
ReplyNot to mention why Biden enacted large parts of Trump’s election platform for him?
*Jan 6 is an open and shut case.* Has been from the start. It happened live on TV. Merrick Garland has obviously been protecting Trump all this time. Sarah Kendzior has been calling him out for it constantly. *The Biden administration is abetting elite criminal impunity.* Everybody denying this is playing Trump’s game, intentionally or not.
If you think otherwise, your brain has been poisoned by the same 50 operators on social media/TV who said Mueller would save the day, then that Cyrus Vance would, then the SDNY, now Jack Smith. And now it’s once again “OMFG we have to vote like never before!!!1!” Only this time your candidate is between 80 and undead, loves genocide, and is behind Trump in every poll because HE IS TOO OLD.
Nice work AOC.
ReplyA thoughtful and specific question, then the time and space to answer with care and eloquence. This is how one should conduct interviews on political topics, with those who have the capacity to speak intelligently: Allow them to do so.
(Those politicians who speak in word-salad talking points should not be given the same space, because they obfuscate with gibberish- they need to be kept on a short leash and held accountable to the facts, rather than be allowed to blather on about nothing- or worse, to blather on spreading lies and falsehoods.
ReplyThat’s the difference between a con-job politician like MTG, and one who truly understands and cares, like AOC.
Its not just Gaza that’s the reason for the large uncommitted voter!! Its the economy, inflation, crime, and homelessness!! Pay attention DEMS!!!
ReplyI’m only voting for a krsna conscious candidate.
ReplyIf that “uncommitted movement” is not going to vote for Biden in the general election they will literally hand the presidency and majority over to Trump and the republican party. So they would stay true to their promise but at the end of the day will only harm their own cause.
ReplyShe and her pack have forced Biden to lose his moral center and he now will lose those who support Israel. Biden has shot himself in the foot by giving into this monster.
ReplyShe and her ilk will be remembered as the reason Biden lost the presidential election.
ReplyDang. I enjoy her perspective and interpretation.
ReplyThere is no upside to what she has done. Say hello to President Trump because of her betrayal of Biden. Thanks Colbert too ..
ReplyBiden should have chosen her for his v p.
ReplyJeez what a disappointment. Does she really believe that those who are protesting now will forget all about it in November? Maybe politicians have no morals or backbones but very many uncommitted do. Biden is complicit in genocide.
ReplyAs for the attitude that as the opposition is Trump so folks should dump their principles and vote Biden is pathetic.
If Trump wins he wins because of Biden and the party being too scared to do the right thing in Gaza. It will not be the fault of those who spoil their papers.
I advise folks to watch Jon Stewart from last night, he shows the hypocrisy of the democrats on Gaza.
We are lucky that her path led her to public service. She could have and would have been a brain surgeon instead.
Reply“So respond to this now is what you reccomend the Biden administration to do, so people can trust his judgement in the future” I like that Stephen reafirmed what she just said, I know he would rather die that have DT as president again, but its great to see that he understands you don’t give a vote over nothing you have to earn it, so chop chop Joe, get to work.
ReplyImpeach all Republicans
ReplyThat it means “We the People” are actually more Liberal or more Left than our politicians pretend we are. And maybe that does not show in voting results b/c the game is rigged in some places ie Redistricting is bogus as evidenced by the party affiliated Project Red Map. Also, it shows that if you do not attribute a solution to a particular party or member, but force people to agree/disagree on principle they tend to pick a more liberal option.
I am more conservative than I know I ought to be, there are things where I very much use a conservative approach. But I know that I am more Left than Biden, Clinton (Hillary), Obama, and Clinton (Bill). I am most in agreement w/ the political leanings of a fellow named Martin from the 50s/60s (RIP King) and the most prominent serving member that shares those ideals is Sen. Sanders.
Voters. Please select the person you agree with on the most things. One issue voting is fucked up, be that Abortion, or Palestine… that can be crucial in your choice, but your selection effects everybody else (not just in the US, but other nations as well — they are representing the US to the world) so you need someone that represents you correctly on a vast majority of the (Inter-)National Issues and between two options that are nearly identical you can defend your choice that this issue was critical.
ReplyScrew her and Genocide Joe. She wouldn’t even use the term ‘genocide’ until people called her out on it. She has turned out to be an establishment Dem and not the ‘leftist’ that she advertised herself as. I’m voting for Jill Stein, because genocide is a line that I refuse to cross. If Biden loses it will be his own damn fault.
