thing is too, she understands a lot of issues, especially for working class people as well as migrants. She has had so many interviews where she nails it, better than the vast majority of politicians we've had but then her voting record and shit just does not reflect her so called values. it's truly mind numbing. When she first came on the scene I was excited that a young person who shared a lot of my views would be in congress and idk maybe like get some shit fixed but lol, all hope for her has died, especially her geopolitics are pure garbo
She crossed the picket line by grabbing a sign and doing a few chants, and then quickly snuck across while everyone was distracted by a rousing chorus of "Which Side Are You On?".
If I understand correctly there was a divide between teamster leadership and the actual striking workers, AOC picketed for the teamster leadership who pushed through an end to the strike without securing the demands of the striking workers, as well as without giving them monetary aid during the strike.
Thats what the twitter thread/comment seems to say at least.
AOC has been doing what Pelosi wanted 99% of the time, it would be hilarious if they kicked her out for being "too left wing"

wasn't she an intern for some senator, and only bartended for 6 months?
Not just some senator, but Ted Kennedy. Yeah her bartending is pretty exaggerated compared to the other shit she did
Oof. Lucky she didn't end up facedown in a pond.
As Ted Kennedy says, we’ll drive over that bridge when we get to it.
what is the source of that conflict between words and vote record?

she picketed and was a scab at the same time?

She’s a democrat though. Not a socialist fascist like Bernie sanders who supports brocialist labor
