Reporter: What do you make of Republicans saying that Virginia—
AOC: Wah wah wah.
We have asked Republicans for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering. And for 10 years, Republicans have said no. Republicans have fought for partisan gerrymanders across the United States of America. And these are the rules that they have set.
And so if the Republican Party wanted to start this, they did this in North Carolina. They drew out three Democratic members of Congress in North Carolina. They did it in Texas.
What they’re just mad at is that they have been accustomed to a Democratic Party that rolls over, doesn’t fight, and takes everything sitting down. And what they’re mad at right now is that we are here in a new day. And we have been asking the Democratic Party to stand up and fight, and now they did—and now the Republican Party doesn’t like the fact that they are fighting against someone who actually will stand up for the American people.
So if Republicans decide that they would like to revisit a ban on partisan gerrymandering, I welcome them. We have the bill right here to end this all today. But they don’t want to, because they like pursuing and continuing to enact an unfair electoral landscape. And so we have an obligation to defend ourselves.

These people have been totally silent about North Carolina Republicans' partisan gerrymander of our state for 15 years running - including just last year.
They also vocally opposed Democrats' attempts to ban partisan gerrymandering nationally in 2021.
What does that tell you?

Bob Mueller was one of the finest directors in the history of the FBI, transforming the bureau after 9/11 and saving countless lives. But it was his relentless commitment to the rule of law and his unwavering belief in our bedrock values that made him one of the most respected public servants of our time. Michelle and I send our condolences to Bob’s family, and everyone who knew and admired him.

Trump and Robert Mueller were born two years apart, both into wealthy families and both with private school upbringings.
Trump received five draft deferments during Vietnam and became a parasitic real estate baron.
Mueller volunteered for service, graduated from Officer Candidate School and Ranger School, was wounded in combat, and received a Bronze Star w/ Valor for rescuing one of his wounded soldiers under intense enemy fire.
And that pretty much crystallizes both the difference between the two and Trump's toxic jealousy toward Mueller.

Correct, because it’s about the suffering

Is kosher for Passover food healthy? No. Is it affordable? No. But is it tasty? Also no.

@theliamnissan The thing is, most Jewish people like myself actually agree with you there. But then you post something that implies a domestic terrorist is justified in attacking a Jewish school here bc of what Israel did to his family. My Jewish kids did nothing to him.

@dwarfmorgante @jacobkornbluh I look forward to you posting this again when he is shown at an egg hunt on Easter.

@jacobkornbluh The fact that any American mayor is taking any part in such ridiculously unAmerican things, like a “Purim” or an “Iftar” just proves how absolutely hopeless this country is.

“For almost the entirety of her married life, she has had to answer questions about her husband’s actions,” said Patti Solis Doyle. “There is no reason for her to have to suffer this last indignity. She has nothing to do with it. It is infuriating."

@alangblake @cmclymer Thank god you were here to explain that to me. Here I am, with my silly Political Science degree thinking about how that game was the ultimate microcosm of the geopolitical rivalry between us and the Soviets.

@lauramichelle71 @cmclymer Not. It was a "Miracle on Ice". It was college players against professionals. It was David vs Goliath.

I like Jack Hughes. He seems like he has a good heart. He's also 24 and hasn't yet realized that for women and queer people, our entire existence is political. Everything we do. All the time. We don't get to opt out of that. Yes, Mr. Hughes, everything is political.
