It’s ok, they’ll get jobs making solar panels I’m sure. Press on, AOC. You’re doing great work for the GOP. An Gov Newsome, don’t go all wobbly on the train-to-nowhere.

She is such a hypocrite. In this article from yesterday it talks about how she lives in a condo which does not allow poor people in.

Her base will be unaffected by this statement of fact. In their minds, it would be better, more “fair”, and more “just” to simply steal from the “wealthy” via taxation. They are True Believers, and there seem to be more of them than we’d ever thought there to be. Doubling-down on stupidity is a virtue to them, and they have found their messiah.
