when you're pro-death, you're also pro-violence and anti-rights.

$10,000.

Which for Juicy Smolensk (or whatever his name is) is basically a generous tip at a nice restaurant.

Have you not been paying attention?

Honestly, it seems as though you have not been paying attention.

Taxes are things that OTHER PEOPLE pay, to fund AOC's ambitions.

“But on the other hand,” Colbert quipped, “isn’t it a hopeful sign for America that regardless of your race or sexual orientation, all rich, famous people get off easily? I believe, it was Martin Luther King who said, ‘I have a dream that one day, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will hire the very best publicists to leverage their social media profile, escape charges and make a big comeback on The Masked Singer.

"Kein meme ist illegal"


In other news, that face you make when the Washington Post calls you out on your BS:



Ocasio-Cortez’s misleading complaint: Trump did not transfer funds for the opioid emergency


TL;DR: AOC seems to be taking on the President on his home turf: Twitter.
“Amount President Trump has transferred from other agencies to fund his ‘Build the Wall’ Emergency: $10s of millions, & has identified billions more. Amount he’s transferred to address the Opioid National Emergency: $0”

— Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), in a tweet over a C-SPAN tweet, March 8


And the WaPo just ripped that claim to shreds.

I heard AOC used to be a major of a a small town when she was 18. However, being so inexperienced, she quickly ran the town's finances into the ground and was impeached after two months. Her signature failure was spearheading the development of a winter sports complex called Ice Town which bankrupted the town, leading to the newspaper headline "Ice Town Costs Ice Clown Her Town Crown."
