Let's be honest about AOC, she's been unable to handle the moment surrounding the Gaza genocide.
She's looked nervous and has been unable to emerge as a leader of the voiceless MAJORITY in this country that want an end to our support for Israel's crimes.
Shameful.
JUST IN | Rep. Ocasio-Cortez defended her vote to continue using American taxpayer money to fund Israel’s military, saying the GOP amendment would have cut “defensive Iron Dome capacities,” so “of course I voted against it.”
She did not explain why a highly belligerent apartheid state that provides better social services than the U.S.—including universal health care, subsidized higher education, and child allowances with paid parental leave—shouldn’t simply pay for its own defense.
i don’t think we should be funding the “defense” of a belligerent terror state doing a live-streamed holocaust of children. especially when (as we saw w iran) military retaliation that penetrates israeli AA systems (that we fund) is the only thing that causes deterrence.
@AOC This is a painfully childish analysis. Either you are attempting to do something for a purely politically cynical reason or your advisors are some of the most incompetent in Washington.
