Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who likely owes her seat in Congress to her sophisticated use of social media, now says she’s giving up Facebook and cutting back on Instagram and Twitter — for her health.

Corona is so bad, you HAVE to put a lime wedge in the bottle for it to be drinkable.

No, that was Mark Twain.

It's often mis-attributed to Twain, but many believe that it was Lincoln who said it, although proof is somewhat thin. But even Lincoln didn't invent it. The saying has been around in many forms prior to Lincoln, with some versions emerging in Proverbs 17:28 "Even a fool is considered wise if he keeps silent, and discerning when he holds his tongue" and a Chinese Proverb Is it better to keep your mouth shut and seem a fool, or to open your mouth and remove all doubt?

From The Quote Investigator:

The ... Yale Book of Quotations ... investigated the saying and presented the earliest known attribution to Lincoln in Golden Book magazine in November 1931

And also:

When Ken Burns filmed a documentary about Mark Twain in 2001 a companion book was released, and it listed the following version of the quote in a section titled “What Twain Didn’t Say”:

"Better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt."

She wouldn’t give up her little soapbox willingly. I suspect threatening other members of Congress might’ve earned getting the kibosh but who knows, logic sure doesn’t play into anything related to Ms. Cortez.

Anybody who believes this blatant lie is as mentally challenged as she is.

How long before AOC is found at a park with two bullets to the back of the head, suicide dont ya know/sarc

In her case the shot would have to hit her in the ass because she has sh*t for brains.

Maybe Trump stopped paying her to be...herself.

Anyway, she still has her lips.
