Go paint bomb Trump Towers or the Wall Street golden cow and see what happens. Vandalizing a slightly imperfect ally's office is chickenshit
I think some people are getting carried away too, but you can’t use the smol bean defense for a congressional representative. Have some dignity.
It's easy to be glib when it wasn't your office that was paint-bombed with fake blood after you voted against ALL war funding. How do you think the workers who work there and everyday New Yorkers who depend on that office for services feel?
She's actually a sitting congresswoman, not a bar tender
They don't want anybody to see the detention conditions
Catholic priests have been barred from providing religious services inside Florida's controversial new migrant detention facility — dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz" — nearly three weeks after it opened deep in the Everglades, the archbishop of Miami said. bit.ly/3IFk8qd
Undocumented immigrants do the backbreaking work that keeps this country going: picking our food, working in meatpacking plants, providing child care for our kids, supporting our grandparents in nursing homes. We need comprehensive immigration reform, not mass deportations.
Harper’s: where self-importance ages like unrefrigerated shrimp cocktail in the nursing home of contrarian hot-takes
Imagine a particle physicist splitting hairs instead of atoms. Your take on AOC couldn't split a sandwich in a union hall. Call it the Higgs Boson of irrelevance
5’4” Latina bartender who supports sending help to a country doing a genocide!
The Harvard PhD left: too busy cosplaying the perfect revolution in New Left Review to knock on doors. Why vote when you can read all about the correct method of resistance from the sidelines of the Ivory Tower?
Pathetic

Wild we live in a world where the Catholic Church is one of the only major organizations to have decidedly liberalized
Imagine if DSA punched up at MAGA and the centrist Democratic establishment like this instead of hippy punching the only two elected democratic socialists in the country with national name recognition
Hunter Biden calls out the Pod Save America team as "four white millionaires dining out on their association with Barack Obama from 16 years ago" as he outlines his issues with the greater Democratic establishment
The real truth comes out: Slandering AOC sells substack subscriptions for the ideology of influencer individualism
Wrote an entire piece on this if you’d like to better understand why the position of “We should send defensive weapons to Israel” is ridiculous: open.substack.com/pub/commiecorn…
Congrats to the ragebait left for inspiring vandalism and death threats against a 5'4" Latina bartender who’s done far more for working people than they ever will. Really sticking it to the man there. 👏
Last night, our campaign office in the Bronx was vandalized and we are in the processing of cleaning it up. Our office is a hub in the community and we want it to be a safe space for all of our neighbors. In the past few days, we also have received multiple threats on the…
The powerless clout-chasers attacking AOC, a woman of color, are only doing it for attention and cheap clicks. They know full well that confronting the true perpetrators of genocide would mean taking the real risks of either being ignored as irrelevant or prosecuted as criminals.
.@AOC’s Bronx HQ was redecorated with red paint tonite by a group called the Boogie Down Liberation Front. The group denounced AOC’s vote to fund Israel & the genocide in Gaza & also called out how politicians (like AOC & Ritchie Torres) use the Bronx to further their careers.
Yes, you are a sinner if you refuse to receive Communion from a woman
Question for my Catholic brothers a sisters. I want to make sure i am not sinning, and if I am, I'll change my attitude. But the question is, if I am in a state of grace, and chose not to recieve communion because a woman was handing it out in my line, is it the worse sin to…
The GOP amendment failed 6-422 this was not a hill to die on
Every time I come back to this post it angers me more. Rashida Talib the only Palestinian-American congresswoman voted for the anti-Iron Dome funding amendment. Ilhan Omar & Summer Lee, a socialist from Pittsburgh, also voted for it. AOC is implicitly attacking them.
Spending more time on here talking about AOC's vote on an amendment that was entirely symbolic and had 0 chance of passing than trump's budget that exponentially expanded ice and cut our social safety net and came down to a few swing votes is why the left is doomed
on the list of reasons to be angry at the federal government, Trump Administration, or many/most Congressional Democrats….gotta say that “AOC voted against a fake Marjorie Taylor Greene amendment she only made bc she thinks Jews are evil weather wizards” is down near the bottom!
She's doing this for free btw
AOC was not one of the 5 House Democrats who voted for the war spending bill truthout.org/articles/5-hou…
AOC voted against the war spending bill, DSA should be going after the five House Democrats who voted for it. Those Democrats were Reps. Don Davis (NC), Jared Golden (ME), Vicente Gonzalez (TX), Adam Gray (CA), and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (WA)
Yesterday, Congress once again increased spending on war instead of the services and protections that working people desperately need. In a vote of 221 to 209, Congress approved H.R.4016, the Department of Defense Appropriations Act, sending a staggering $831.5 billion to the…
I am incredibly honored to be the DFL endorsed candidate for Minneapolis Mayor. This endorsement is a message that Minneapolis residents are done with broken promises, vetoes, and politics as usual. It’s a mandate to build a city that works for all of us. fatehformayor.com/donate
