I guess the de-escalation of last night's air strike wasn't enough to fully de-escalate and stop war, so today the US has ordered another airstrike at a top Iraqi militia commander to further de-escalate and stop even more war.

Many people are saying that Don Jr. isn't really white. Rumor is he's actually known for some time now, but is afraid what his dad will say if he finds out.

Psst! 🗣 Birth control should be over-the-counter, pass it on.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Paul Manafort is being sent to solitary confinement in my district - Rikers Island.

A prison sentence is not a license for gov torture and human rights violations. That‘s what solitary confinement is.

Manafort should be released, along with all people being held in solitary.

Readings from the Misogynist Dictionary 📖:

“Nasty” (adj.):
1. A woman who doesn’t bow under your thumb; or
2. A woman who‘s not attracted to you.

Ex: When a misogynist encounters a “nasty” woman, he‘ll almost surely try to denigrate her appearance, intelligence, or character.

I was nervous that I may have lost my touch - still got it! That muscle memory doesn’t quit 😉

Now let’s pass #RaiseTheWage and get $15 an hour minimum for every worker in America.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Ultimately, this is about women’s power.

When women are in control of their sexuality, it threatens a core element underpinning right-wing ideology: patriarchy.

It’s a brutal form of oppression to seize control of the 1 essential thing a person should command: their own body.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Abortion bans aren’t just about controlling women’s bodies.

They’re about controlling women’s sexuality. Owning women.

From limiting birth control to banning comprehensive sex ed, US religious fundamentalists are working hard to outlaw sex that falls outside their theology.

If you believe this president...if you’re on the fence abt him...if you don’t like his personality but still may vote for him if you don’t like who Dems pick... I don’t believe you to be a patriot. Or a smart person. And I don’t think you’re who Dems should be going after. Thx.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

What if a bold agenda rooted in improving everyday people’s lives is part of a winning strategy?

What if the choice btwn big ideas+winning elections is a false one that crept up through outsize influence of💰in politics?

What if, in a nation parched for change, we were water?🌊

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Understand when Jeanine Pirro goes on Fox + rallies people to think hijabs are threatening, it leads to this.

Folks who imply we’re “bad” for politics, the party, the country, etc. have no idea the threats we deal w/ because of that kind of language.

Talk policy, not personal.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

“How dare they refuse to say their name in a wrong accent & not mangle their own family name so that I can feel more comfortable instead of look inside myself & examine why something as small as *a person’s name* makes me uncomfortable in the first place?? This is an outrage!”

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Gotta love how the same folks who tolerate+ acquiesce to building a medieval wall along the entire US southern border as a (non-evidence based) solution for a “crisis” that doesn’t exist are now suddenly concerned that pursuing a nat’l response to climate change is “unrealistic.”

Also: "fatalities resulting from attacks by far right wing violet extremists have exceeded those caused by radical Islamist violent extremists in 10 of the 15 years."

I guess it's not just Trump, but also his 'thinktank' acolytes, who struggle reading anything without pix in it.
