“And they have the audacity to try to brand this as Christian. What does that word even mean to them? Wearing a necklace?” AOC added

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) again slammed Republicans for supporting Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful” bill as the initiative gets closer to passing in the Lower House.

The lawmaker wrote the post while responding to an article by the New York Times, which detailed that a “conga line of angsty Republican lawmakers filed through the West Wing on Wednesday, hemming and hawing about the” bill only to walk out with “signed merchandise, photos in the Oval Office and, by some accounts, a newfound appreciation for the bill.”

    You should have revolted as a society when you started committing a live steamed genocide. If no one cares about children being literally shredded to pieces with their taxes, why would they care that someone 20 minutes away is “getting deported”.

    They’re not scared, they’re amoral. People voted for this, you forget.

      Yawn. Germany sells a fuck ton of weapons to Israel but you give them a free pass because you don’t care about dead Palestinians, you care about crushing the US. You’re a hypocrite ML.

          Laughing my fucking ass off. Next time you want to pretend to be a Palestinian, remember they speak Arabic, not “Palestinian.”

          And you give them ALL a free pass by thinking the US is the only country at fault. There are dozens, and they are smart to keep their mouths shut.

          If you care about Palestine more than you care about condemning the US, you’ll start blaming more countries— But you and I both know you are only here to complain about the US, And you do not give a shit about Palestine.

            I invite you to reflect on the words I’m saying instead of just focusing on the high you’re getting from what you perceive as owning me or whatever.

            Your responses and this baseless rejection of my identity is so aggressive and weird that it’s not triggering any emotional response in me, I’m just confused.

            I don’t think I said anything to justify your hostility, I even agreed with your irrelevant point.

              I’ll take my words back when you start complaining about all of the other countries too.

                Why do you want me to complain about other countries in a thread specifically about US domestic politics?

                That’s so weird.

                All of the countries are guilty, especially the Arab puppet rulers, starting with the tomato king Abdullah of Jordan and khara Sisi of Egypt who allow the transport of commercial goods to Israel while blocking aid to Gaza and intercepting Iranian rockets on the heads of Jordanians. None of that is relevant when discussing American politics.
