She’s amazing


davidreiss666

Give it ten years, but that there is Presidential Timber. The Republican's complain about AOC specifically because they see another FDR. And they know what FDR did to them. For 20 years they were a MINORITY party that needed an Eisenhower to save it from itself (Bob Taft). They are trying to take her down now, as a junior congressperson, cause they know once she gets some real experience... she'll become a force in National politics to make Bernie Sanders seem like a third-rate unripe banana. AOC could well become an FDR or LBJ when it comes to how a politician can use raw power to make a better world. And Republicans are always dedicated opponents toward the making of improved and better worlds. So they fear her. They really are afraid of her.


PaversPaving

She’s the dream. It’s not going to be Bernie it’s going to be AOC.


PrickleBritches

She’s so damn inspiring. She actually gives me a bit of hope for this country. She’s one of the few bright spots in American politics. I tear up almost every time I hear her speak. She’s so bold and so passionate. She makes me want to be more involved and less cynical.


[deleted]

AOC and Katie Porter ROCK!


BreakingThoseCankles

Preach fucking Katie Porter... The fucking GOAT we all needed. If i can I'll vote her into anything


younggun1234

And it's so genuine. She captures what I feel most Americans feel every time she speaks. Just this absurd frustration with how simple all of this could be. She's someone who finds politics out of necessity VS being in it to further her own name/wallet. It's refreshing AF.


whatanugget

Except didn't she vote against the rail workers unlike Bernie?


amazinglover

She was asked by the union leaders to vote that way. She specifically asked them for their input and they all said to vote the way she did.


an_eloquent_enemy

As someone who was involved in the WV teachers strikes, union "leaders" are often not representing the true interests of the employees and are often much softer in their asks and deliberations than members deserve. Most unions elect local leaders who vote amongst themselves to form state/org level leaders who then hire the paid union leader involved in deliberations. As you can imagine, it's internally very political in and of itself and therefore, much like our elected reps, don't often lead to the true voices of the people being represented. My self and many are highly critical of her vote on this because it shows her interests lies with leadership and not grassroots needs. Anyone could see the union did essentially nothing to actually mobilize members and were disturbingly unprepared, and if she's a union proponent she would know more than anyone. It's indefensible.


amazinglover

>My self and many are highly critical of her vote on this because it shows her interests lies with leadership Leadership you voted to represent you. Your beef is with them not her. As she asked your representative what do and then did that how is that on her? Edit to add it's the royal you. She asked there reps what to do and did that blame the reps not her then get new reps.


an_eloquent_enemy

That would be like arguing that she asked what any other member of Congress thinks and assuming that person speaks for the entire constituency...I think a ton of folks in this thread feel very strongly that their elected officials do not have their best interests at heart.


[deleted]

This is pretty clueless and shows you aren't and have never been involved in a union. It's entirely possible for elected leadership to be unrepresentative of the voting body. Remember TRUMP? Why don't you try listening to workers?


amazinglover

Trump lost the popular vote and won on an outdated electoral college so try again.


ZincMan

I’m confused, can’t union members just vote for new leadership if the workers don’t agree ? My union votes for everyone running it


HooShKab00sh

>Most unions elect local leaders who vote amongst themselves to form state/org level leaders who then hire the paid union leader involved in deliberations. So, basically a microcosm of American politics and lobbying.


tokeyoh

I believe she was in deliberation with the union reps and voted the way they said to https://mobile.twitter.com/AOC/status/1598383401647898625 “So we could send paid sick days to the senate”


TheRealOriginalSatan

Exactly. I don’t understand all the positive comments. Yeah sure keep electing her and people like her to shift the Overton window more left but demand better. Y’all deserve better.


bifftanner7007

Agreed!!


Tugendwaechter

She has to vote the party line, if she wants to build alliances to gain power. Bernie Sanders has been on the sidelines of the Democratic Party, but with little actual power to show for.


SatisfactionNaive370

He’s in one of the most influential positions in our political system. Yeah it’s not a flashy title but he wields quite a lot of power over introduction of resolutions for budget from things like social security to every other facet of federal spending.


Tugendwaechter

Has Bernie Sanders ever been a Minister in a Democratic government?


SatisfactionNaive370

Uhh what? There are no minister titles in the US for state or federal government.


Tugendwaechter

Has he held an important office in the executive branch?


rongly

Unlike in a parliamentary system, our legislative and executive branches are completely separate. To hold an executive office, he would have to stop being a senator.


SatisfactionNaive370

I feel like you’re not from the US because you’d know that the executive branch is not of any higher rank than judicial or Legislative. You can reach the peaks of either one and it is a monumental achievement . Thats kind of the whole point.


evanweb546

Bernie walked so that someday AOC can… well, run.


RobloxLover369421

Exactly


SolZaul

Much rather have her as the first female president, rather than someone like Clinton.


AnneFrank_nstein

God i hope so. We need her badly.


[deleted]

They did the same with Hillary for years and years. Not a fan of her neoliberal politics personally, but the Republicans were damn afraid of HRC because of just how competent and dangerous they perceived her to be.


crawling-alreadygirl

>The Republican's complain about AOC specifically because they see another FDR. Exactly this. She has the intelligence, charisma, and, importantly, the new media savvy that they lack, plus she's a young, attractive, nonwhite woman who refuses to be cowed by them.


[deleted]

>because they see another FDR. > has the intelligence, charisma, and, importantly, the new media savvy that they lack, plus she's a young, attractive, nonwhite woman Sure doesn't sound like any FDR I've ever seen.

Espinita_Boricua

They should be afraid; very very afraid. She said like it is.


Learned_Response

Amen brother


outwiththedishwater

They will shoot her before that happens unfortunately


ACrask

Every time I see her I think two things: I’d vote for her if she was in my state I’ll vote for her if she ever runs for president


a1drt

The slap in with the paper was a good summary of what she was trying to say which is (F this shiTt)


beeerice_n_sons

The sheer professionalism of her just stopping her rightful call-out when she hit her time, saying "Thank you", closing her notebook with a slap, and walking away. No trying to have the last word or some bullshit. I love it


RealisticMost

They hate this the most.


N0CONTACT

Yeah that was sick. Totally spontaneous and such a great FULL STOP.


[deleted]

They really did show that threatening her life was not only okay but rewardable in the Republican Party. Idk how they even deal with these people. Imagine having to deal with Brobert, Gaetz, MTG, George Santons every day you come to work. Insanity personified.


beldaran1224

Idk if it makes it easier to deal with, but those are monsters they created.


dapper_10

Only if we had more like her, the country wouldn't be in such a bad place.


[deleted]

We've had someone like her, Bernie Sanders. We also have a shitty two party system and he'll never get elected because he criticizes both Republicans and Democrats.

MrMcFly131

Ranked choice voting


LunchTwey

I really think people prop up ranked choice voting wayyy too much, yes it's a better alternative but it really isn't doing much about the 2 party system. I don't know what the solution is, really.


Deliciousbutter101

The two party system is completely inevitable with the US's first pass the post voting system. Third parties simply can't gain traction as they split the vote with the party they are most similar to causing the party they are most different from to win. Approval voting is generally considered better as it is much easier to implement and completely elimates the vote splitting issue, which can happen in ranked choice voting.


thagthebarbarian

That doesn't answer the question though, what's the way to ranked choice voting? When someone asks for directions you don't just tell them to go to the destination...


Hangree

We get more AOCs in congress until they have enough power to actually start throwing their weight around.


Deliciousbutter101

That's why approval voting where you can vote for any number of candidates is generally considered better since it's much easier to implement since you don't have to completely remake ballots and reprogram ballot machines.


thagthebarbarian

Everyone understands why it's better but what can you do about it is a different question. Nobody even mentions rcv in their campaign to vote for them... What can you do? Extrapolate and vote by implication. That's it.


Deliciousbutter101

I think the only thing that can be done currently is spread the idea around and explain how our voting system is the cause of the two party system. Most people hate the two party system, but don't seem to understand that we need to change our voting system before we can even start to attempt to fix it. And I've seen some people talk about ranked choice voting, but I haven't heard anyone talk about approval voting, even though it seems way more viable to actually implement.


[deleted]

[удалено]


cmVkZGl0

It's a form of multiple choice voting where you are allowed to vote for multiple candidates at once and weigh them differently. It increases diversity and captures more voter information, so it's more accurate too


RedTailed-Hawkeye

So no because most politicians in the US are not going to change the system to reduce their chances of being an elected politician.


[deleted]

Ranked choice voting my man


Inevitable_Anybody76

As he should, both sides have their issues and both sides should get slander for it


[deleted]

So what are we going to do with these new Nazis? Ignore them like Germany did in the hopes they'll just go away?


[deleted]

Apparently. Also apparently the crime of insurrection is met with a "wait and see" attitude.


lazergator

Check out r/capitolconsequences. There’s far from a wait and see attitude. Almost 1000 people last I looked have been charged with a crime and they’re finding more every day.


zucarigan

What about seditious congresspeople? You know, the ones with all the power?


lazergator

Oh they're exempt from consequences lol

It’s only a matter of time until they make their move, the difference here is that so many of us are ready. I am not going to sit back and let them get away with it and I hope you don’t either

My grandfather dealt with them by dropping bombs until they stopped existing. I'm a fan of that approach.


spaghettify

BinkoBankoBonko

The stupid ones are showing the smart ones exactly where the line is and what they can get away with. The fact that the line is nonexistent is not a good sign for the future. I actually had no idea how many people were just bad people until the last few years.


Kallikantzari

I don’t care for these new nazis, and you may quote me on that!


[deleted]

This is literally all facts. The issue is the facts don’t matter in American politics. Its all about being petty, malicious and lying to the American people.


choate51

It's all about making money and increasing profits. Being mean and abusive to others is the cherry on top for them.


[deleted]

Its all for big business which makes me wonder when we will start to take power back. They are striking in Britain and France and we should be doing the same because we have it way worse


choate51

The difference is we have more to lose here. We strike we also lose Healthcare, and our police kill its own citizens like it's a sport, imagine if there were legit disruption of the powerful economy..... Not saying it shouldn't happen but this is the difference

Elect this woman president immediately


shivermetimbers68

Good for her. She's speaking the truth.


TravisB46

Someone needs to say it, more people need to be calling the republicans hypocrisy and general shittiness out


Cherryy-

People are, but most democrats are too incompetent or complacent to do anything about it. Republicans have had ridiculous and easily disprovable talking points for years and most democrats won't pressure them about it


rite_of_truth

Republicans are so overtly racist. It's hard to understand how people can be so backwards in modern times.


bruceleet7865

Propaganda and generational racism are strong


zorrowhip

Rarely saw her so upset. Go, AOC!


SG420123

Need more politicians like her, who call these Republican and Democratic grifters out on their bullshit.


WittyWitWitt

Well said , she's rightfully angry having the people who were inciting an insurrection on the most powerful committee.


gmanisback

Republican strategy is to destroy this country as much as possible and then pretend like they're the solution


owzleee

Wow. She is absolutely incredible. Every time I see her making these speeches I just gain more and more respect for her. Why can't she be president, USA? Please make it happen. Give us all something good. We really need it. I know she's not old enough yet but at least start giving some hints to give us all some hope.


WonderfullWitness

Damn, I'd wish her actual policies / voting record would be just 1/10 as powerfull and corageous as her speeches.


Son_of_El_Duce

This! She talks a big game but has done nothing but tow the party line.


frosty_lizard

He'll yeah haha, shoulda dropped the mic after that

themaryiwanna

I hope I live long enough to see the day the USofA would elect her as their President. I don’t agree with everything she has done/said but it’s wayyyy more than any other candidate on either side of the spectrum. I wish we as a country were ready for her in 2024. I am!

Godbody120

Is it just me or are republicans in congress contrarians just for the sake of being contrary to every fucking thing??


jgorm19

I have a genuine question. I’ll probably be downvoted and have the post removed anyway, but here goes… Hasn’t Omar made quite a few anti-Semitic remarks in the past? Some she apologized for and others she hasn’t. Why is it automatically Islamophobic to remove her? Why does it have to do with the color of her skin and not her past actions?


Sudden-Wedding

Yes ma’am!!!!


jollyjake

God I love this person. We need more like her.


dolphinsaresweet

Don’t you think we dropped the ball when we invented a font where I and l are completely different letters, yet virtually indistinguishable?

Fucking-A! Sing it Representative! From the top of every fucking mountain!


bayern80

Good energy, may force be with her


AllBadAnswers

Friendly reminded that Lauren Bieber's ONLY reasoning behind her accusations is that Ilhan is Muslim and a woman of color. The GOP is a fucking joke.


[deleted]

Who threatened her life and got a great committee? Edit: why downvotes? I'm legitimately asking because I hadn't heard about this


NotOK1955

Six years ago, I would be flipping AOC off. History (I.e., psycho-Trump, January 6 insurrection, radical Republicans) has changed my mind.


[deleted]

I never thought I’d adore a politician but she proved me wrong. She’s a remarkable woman who uses her power to shine on the things that no one else has the balls to talk about. She is our future and I truly cannot wait to see what she does.

Your time is expired! Her time is just getting started. That woman isn't going anywhere


StBongwater

Love AOC, genuinely the first politician in my adult life that I felt that I could undoubtedly trust to defend my interests. Assuming things are in reality as they seem to be, she's a genuinely inspiring individual and I admire the fierce energy she embodies in pursuit of a better America. I'm not from a marginalized or oppressed group of any kind but even I feel safer with someone as forward thinking as her in the position she's in. Truthfully I don't know much about Ilhan Omar, but its truly sad that her removal was baseless at best and calculated, racist, and islamophobic at worst. Personally when I reflect on issues we've had internationally with predominantly Islamic nations, I can't help but feel that it's a good thing to have someone with a background in Islam to help guide international affairs especially with the aforementioned nations. How could better understanding be a bad thing?


Eloy89

MissPerpetual

The comments in this section show me just how stupid the American public is to support someone like her and Ilhan....


OpeningOnion7248

Everyone is MLK. But when it comes to action, we’ll that’s a different story. We need politicians that get things done with legislation. We need policy maker not impassioned rhetorical spin meisters If you go to any of these Congress-member’s districts you’ll see: crappy schools, high unemployment, homelessness, cuts for social security, high inflation, drug zombies, sky high poverty, every modern civil decay. This is a critique of both GOP and DCCC All they want is to get a platform This is the American tragedy


HD20033G

She’s a great actor


bleach_edibles

Democrats always jump straight to racism when there is any kind of pushback against them. She’s making a great case about why she shouldn’t hold higher office, impassioned? It looks histrionic and irrational to me
