4D chess. I trust Comer’s judgment. He’s gonna make AOC a laughingstock. Excuse me, he’s gonna let her make herself a laughingstock.

Anyway Raskin is a nasty piece of work and it would be great to see him lose out.

I think he sees AOC as incompetent compared to Raskin. Still, Raskin is going nowhere at a national level, while the left sees big things for AOC. It might be best to keep her from positions that pad her resume. On the other hand, taking advantage of (and exposing) her incompetence might be a good thing. And at the same time, it feeds a fight within the dem caucus. I think Comer is playing chess here, and this is a winning move.

I think this is a brilliant move. Using Heels Up Harris as the current standard, I think we need to expose and promote these Socialist Democrat MORONS at every opportunity!

Let them continue to ‘speak for themselves’ and show how inept and stupid they truly are.

Someone said the other day, “AOC: A waitress that doesn’t bring anything to the table”

I have stated before we can kid around but she is a smart person.

She won second place in the microbiology category of the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair in 2007.

The competition is the largest pre-college scientific research event in the world.

She entered in her senior year of high school with a project on Caenorhabditis elegan (C. elegan) lifespan extension, with her findings indicating that “antioxidants could potentially help prevent degenerative illnesses induced by oxidative stress.”

In a show of appreciation for her efforts, the MIT Lincoln Laboratory named a small asteroid after her:
23238 Ocasio-Cortez.

“After graduating from high school in 2007, Ocasio-Cortez attended Boston University and graduated cum laude with Bachelor of Arts degrees in Economics and International Relations.”

I suspect she has a higher than average IQ but is a lazy, entitled ignoramus like Kamala Harris.

She was a "female of color" with a dual degree from Boston University. And at a time when corporate America was falling all over itself to hire and promote people just like her as part of their "diversity" initiatives, she was working as a bartender in NYC at the age of 28 -- in one of the best job markets we’ve seen in decades.

Congress is apparently one of the few places where someone like this can be gainfully employed.

"After graduating from high school in 2007, Ocasio-Cortez attended Boston University and graduated cum laude with Bachelor of Arts degrees in Economics and International Relations."

And ten years later she was working as a bartender. What does that tell you about her, her degrees, and Boston University?

“AOC. Their next Pelosi.”

Shut your mouth. Pelosi was probably the most effective Speaker in several decades. House Dems marched in lockstep under her rule and she delivered the goods. We don’t need another Pelosi coming over the horizon.
