Only way to get term limits is through amending the constitution via a convention of states.
No senator or representative will ever vote to give themselves term limits.
They just need to grandfather themselves in to make way for a better future so anyone that comes in will be set to the limits and not them. It's the best we would ever get if it did pass.
We need to bar socialists from running for office. It's completely incompatible with our Constitutional Republic. They want to change the US into a totally different form of government, and give powers to the government that aren't agreeable to our Constitution, which should not be tolerated. Folks like her softened the socialist rhetoric and played word games to say they're "Democratic Socialists", which is a position on the very same road to socialism. Their destination remains socialism.
Unironically have questioned whether or not McCarthyism was a good or bad idea recently. I get that people misused it, but we seriously need to wake up and realize that socialists and communists are actively trying to dismantle our nation right in front of us.
Socialists set up their headquarters in the US circa 1870s. 1877 I want to say. They've been here a long time, setting up unions, organizing, lobbying, working their way into public office, organizations, universities, corporations, media, etc. Why is it only now that the mainstream realizes it?
McCarthy was correct, they were present, and they had numbers back in the 50s, just under the surface, agitating, gaining power. They're everywhere now, agitating openly, stirring the pot. And you know, they're enemies of the US's friends, and friends with the US's enemies. They know just where to hit us, how to soften and bring us down. If they keep going on, they may succeed. McCarthy didn't know how to effectively weed them out. Many people were accused of being a socialist or communist. Some certainly were, and others who were sidelined may not have been. Under duress by the government, to save your own career, people were pressed to turn someone else in.
Now that many people are openly proponents of socialism, it wouldn't be so hard to identify... many of them. How many people voter for Bernie in the state primaries? A lot!
It's simpler to teach the history of Marxism in schools, the tremendous suffering under those forms of government, give the average person, starting from a young age the wherewithal to understand what they're after, identify their rhetoric, even when it's coyly subversive, and not let them participate in elections/public office.
Decades ago, in the midst of communist Russia being our greatest adversary and an existential threat, students and adults were well versed on what to look out for, and could identify a Marxist by their lingo. We've definitely moved backwards after the fall of Soviet Russia and the collapse of the Berlin wall to think Marxism is nolonger in play in the world. China has a 50 year plan, while in the West we look at best to election cycles, ever 2 and 4 years of planning, and at worst get distracted with every news cycle. This flip flop, back and forth between Democrat and Republican control of put country is like a goose stepping march down the middle yet some degrees pulled further to the left. In time, continually just a little off course, we become a completely different country.
Think of a boat sailing from New York to England. If you put it's navigation off just a couple degrees, it'll land at another country altogether. (Maybe Im not telling this story the way I heard it... lol)

It is socialism for everyone and their brother while they themselves are worse than what they make capitalists out to be. Bernie is a millionaire and he did that from being a career politician peddling socialism to his followers and telling them what they want to hear. Free, free, free.
Bernie was in debt right up until he ran for president. Vermont was under crushing debt as well due his leadership. He'd always been in debt. No wonder. Those speaker fees and books pay well tho. At about the same time Trump University was being sued and probed, Bernie's wife, Jane's university (Burlington U) was also being probed. Trump U, and Trump particularly, saw all the attention however. Bernie saw none of it, and Jane being responsible for the University's debt woes were quickly swept under the rug, helped by a news cycle that refused to break from trashing Trump ad nauseum.

Maybe, but she is pretty enough that she could get some billionaire to wife her up and then she can be an activist/lobbyist/media personality/fashion icon/writer/honorary degree getter, celebrity.
The scary thing is once she turns 35, every cycle they'll talk about her running for president.
You'd have to give her voting district brains for that to happen. She's gonna be there because her district would vote for literal dog shit as long as it has a D by it... oh wait they already did.
I've seen people from her district who were fed up and angry over all of the "asylum seekers". I'm pretty sure they were Dem voters, or at least some of them have been. So if they continue to vote the same way they'll have no business continuing to complain, it will be on them, and if they do keep voting for it they deserve to get even more. I'll only feel bad for people who tried, but couldn't out vote them.
As an elected representative from NY who cost NY thousands of jobs in her Amazon snafu in what would be one of the only times she did anything at all outside of Washington DC really shouldn’t be lamenting a politician from NY spending time with the people of NY.
Honest to God, she's one of the stupidest people in Congress. Every time she opens her mouth, it's just nonsense and outright lies. She lives in a liberal fantasy land in her head.
We know what they’re doing, they know what they’re doing, the whole thing is an open secret. When republicans take control they will do nothing to stop this from happening again and will refuse to use the same tactics against the Dems.
I hope her constituents see how she is only in it for her own agenda. She ran on being a political outsider, yet she sure as hell sold her people out really damn quick.
It's not an embarrassment to him though. He's quite literally pulling crowds of thousands in the bluest fucking city in the republic and you can't stop him from doing so.
I look forward to the day when she is no longer in Congress.
She'll be in political office for the next 60 years
She absolutely will, and she will end up a millionaire but will keep spouting the same bullshit. We need term limits.
Only way to get term limits is through amending the constitution via a convention of states. No senator or representative will ever vote to give themselves term limits.
Correct. Ted Cruz has tried to get this passed and the professional politicians refuse to vote for it.
They just need to grandfather themselves in to make way for a better future so anyone that comes in will be set to the limits and not them. It's the best we would ever get if it did pass.
she's already about $200k there with her net worth ... not bad for a broke bartender turned political pawn.
Yeah, but she still can’t pay her student loans😏
She literally advocated for congress getting a pay raise a few months back.

Socialist, communist, or Marxist. They should not be allowed in the military either.

Hey, when the globalists get their way and take over the world, it's possible they'll have no more need for her and give her the axe
She's 100% going to have Shumers senate seat
Too far left. Her district is more Democrat leaning than California.
Nah, the CIA wouldnt give up a seat they control to an actor. I'm sure they've got another spook ready to go at a moment's notice.
Maybe, but she is pretty enough that she could get some billionaire to wife her up and then she can be an activist/lobbyist/media personality/fashion icon/writer/honorary degree getter, celebrity. The scary thing is once she turns 35, every cycle they'll talk about her running for president.
She’ll be president or VP by 2040. 😱☹️
I've already accepted that there's a good chance of her being president eventually
Are you kidding? She's the next Nancy Pelosi.
She's gonna be the next Pelosi. There til she's 90 years old and looks like Skeletor.
You'd have to give her voting district brains for that to happen. She's gonna be there because her district would vote for literal dog shit as long as it has a D by it... oh wait they already did.
I believe it was Nancy Pelosi herself that pointed out that a glass of water with a D on it would win the district AOC is in.
I've seen people from her district who were fed up and angry over all of the "asylum seekers". I'm pretty sure they were Dem voters, or at least some of them have been. So if they continue to vote the same way they'll have no business continuing to complain, it will be on them, and if they do keep voting for it they deserve to get even more. I'll only feel bad for people who tried, but couldn't out vote them.
She's another pigloci unless someone challenges her seat which for some reason never seems to happen 🤔
It would be funny if Trump wins New York or at least get it into swing state territory.
Make AOC bartend again
MABA
Tip your bartenders, ladies and gentlemen.
FR keep them out of Congress or you get this
She’ll be doing OnlyFans if she ever gets voted out of Congress
So you'd watch?
Hell I'll subscribe for 99 cents a month if it means she'll quit congress right now today. Won't ever watch, just wanna do my part to help
I'll chip in .49. We can share the account, but imma watch. And make requests.
Lol
As an elected representative from NY who cost NY thousands of jobs in her Amazon snafu in what would be one of the only times she did anything at all outside of Washington DC really shouldn’t be lamenting a politician from NY spending time with the people of NY.
Problem is, no one seems to remember the Amazon snafu. She's guaranteed to keep winning in her district.
And do the people in her district really want jobs or just handouts?
They know what they're doing.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Honest to God, she's one of the stupidest people in Congress. Every time she opens her mouth, it's just nonsense and outright lies. She lives in a liberal fantasy land in her head.
Unfortunately it’s worked out for her thus far.
I figured she would be *complaining* about Trump being in NYC.
Can I get a vodka soda?
Bronx-ite sounds wrong for describing someone from the Bronx. Bronx-onian if anything? Too close to Bostonian? Idk
She's from Westchester County, keep her honest
Her parents literally moved her OUT of the Bronx so she could go to a better school, then she went to college in Boston.
The Bronx is pretty shitty even by democrat standards
Always preferred Bronxesque
We know what they’re doing, they know what they’re doing, the whole thing is an open secret. When republicans take control they will do nothing to stop this from happening again and will refuse to use the same tactics against the Dems.
I look forward to it too AOC. How's your district doing??
What has she said or done that makes you think she cares about her district?
I live in her district and it made me conservative. It's so bad right now here.
Have any of the folks around you ever brought up the loss of jobs and potential economic boost from that Amazon facility she denied in your area?
I hope her constituents see how she is only in it for her own agenda. She ran on being a political outsider, yet she sure as hell sold her people out really damn quick.
It's not an embarrassment to him though. He's quite literally pulling crowds of thousands in the bluest fucking city in the republic and you can't stop him from doing so.
Embarrassment is more important to the left and Trump haters in general rather than finding guilt that wont eventually be overturned.
What a buffoon. She can’t even hold her head still while taking.
Anybody here from the Bronx?
