Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez went on a Twitter tear accusing people of undermining her intelligence over statements she made about Amazon’s failed move to the Big Apple.
“Frankly, the knee-jerk reaction assuming that I ‘don’t understand’ how tax giveaways to corps work is disappointing,” the progressive darling wrote Tuesday.
The youngest member of Congress came under fire when she argued last week that the close to $3 billion in tax breaks and subsidies the city and state offered Amazon to build a headquarters in Long Island City could have been better spent on hiring teachers or fixing the subways.
In a five-tweet rant, Ocasio-Cortez lashed out at people who pointed out that $2.5 billion of the $3 billion represented future tax breaks — not a large pile of cash that could now be spent elsewhere.

“I’d say that means that the step from chemistry to life is more inevitable than popularly thought. What say you?”
what i say is that that’s an excellent example of modular and reusable engineering and design ...
Thanks for info!
Interesting stuff. She really is just a twenty-something dingbat whose education was a waste of time and money.
LOVE that show
She's the new Rodney Dangerfield.
That's very, very possible. The sequence of events could have gone this way:
She stole Stacy Abram’s rising star there’s no room for others when AOC has the mic.
OAC confirms that Einstein was correct when he observed a primary difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits.

Actually, the evidence all points to evolution from a common ancestor.
Had there been a single creation event, one would expect that genes with the same function across species would have exactly the same sequence. And that genes for functions that are unique to a species would have no homologies to any other gene in any other species. However, neither one of these is the case. Even though we share many genes and metabolic pathways with countless other species, they are also different in ways that are consistent with arising in a common ancestor. That is, gene X would be most similar between chimps and humans and less similar between humans and non-primates.
Treat a Liberal like they treat a Conservative and let the Fireworks begin.
I’m still wondering why she hasn’t Married her “partner”?
Is it because he gets paid as part of her “Staff”?
Again you are making assumptions that cannot be proven.
Why would anyone assume that God would choose to do the same function the same way in all instances? He is a very creative God.
The whole genetic record of the world is ALSO consistent with creation. You cannot “pick favorites” when the evidence shows either option is possible.
(The bible shows a sequence of creation events over a period of time, not just one event)
