Here's a tip to get you started

Chuck Norris is a Republican senior citizen, though. He wouldn't feel safe in ANY city.

The "throw police at problems mostly caused by poverty and inequality" reaction tracks too, though.

Hell of a summer job, though 😄

Nah, she's not Elizabeth Warren. She sticks to her principles when it makes things more difficult for herself too.

As evidenced by her correct opposition to the Amazon complex destroying a historical neighbourhood in her district while engaging in state-sanctioned tax evasion.

People who believed the lies of Amazon and corrupt demagogues still try (often successfully) to use that against her.

Does what? Speaks truth to power? Opposes insurrectionists and undue foreign government influence on American elections from an apartheid regime?

You've been huffing propaganda fumes without the necessary protective equipment known as common sense and critical thinking, haven't you?

It absolutely IS legalised bribery. That's why the US isn't ranked as the most corrupt of all western countries in every study; doesn't count if it's legal and expected.

AOC speaking truth to power again ✊️

AIPAC is a bigoted propaganda apparatus for an apartheid state and an endorsement from them should be considered as toxic as an endorsement from the KKK or Rick Snyder who deliberately poisoned the drinking water of Flint, Michigan and then lied about it.

Nobody's idolizing anyone. You can agree with some of his ideas without being with him on the rest and while unreservedly condemning the atrocities he employed to spread them.

As I see it, the choice of him in stead of someone with similar ideas who's NOT a mass-murdering fuckhead, as Eddie Izzard put it, is 100% self-deprecatory and 0% celebratory.

Also, you know, a fucking joke 🙄

I currently have two cats. I can confirm that two is sufficient but not excessive cattery.

Judging by her educational history and political present day, I'm guessing she's not fond of being lectured or otherwise informed by anyone about anything.

You asked a question that couldn't be answered both concisely and accurately so I chose accuracy.
