    For the record, she didn't do this.  This was a project by Pro-Publica.

    AOC:


    Just left the 1st CBP facility.

    I see why CBP officers were being so physically &sexually threatening towards me.

    Officers were keeping women in cells w/ no water & had told them to drink out of the toilets.

    This was them on their GOOD behavior in front of members of Congress.


    What the Hell is happening?

     A.O.C. will be a constant from now on. She will be a congressperson or senator for the rest of our lives.  She is so super popular that her political coffers will be overflowing with donations so she will be unbeatable. 

    I found my place......and it's alright

    She is popular but even better than that, she's a go-getter, smart and ambitious.  I wish the best for her.

    you know you're doing something right when the GOP  and Trump's state media can't stop talking about you.

    No doubt about that.

    I dislike them both pretty equally. 

    But awesome buzzword.
    keep just chucking it out there.

    I will. It's a good one that truly applies surprisingly often.

    If you dislike them equally than you are so biased giving Trump positive points to ”bring down the ’left’ to his level” its frightening.

    I need to do more research on it, because there is so much misinformation out there, it's hard to wade through, but my point is the GOP and Trump attack who they fear. I'm not saying that if she is sensationalizing things she should be held in high regard for that. I'm saying I think she is legit if the GOP isn't just dismissing her. 

    And your comment is not false equivalancy. I agree, I'm getting REAL tired of that term. it gets thrown around when it doesn't apply all too often.

    She’s a threat because the republicans know how to win and she is attacking them at that game. Gross misrepresentations and tweet them often so people believe. She’s a threat because she is so similar in style ;)
