She literally clarified the point in a follow up tweet the same day and the Post just went with the "that doesn't count" approach on that tidbit; as if character limits might not create some issues with nuance that lead to people needing multiple tweets to make their points frequently
:mjlol:




So now she's accusing the Pentagon of making up numbers. She has no proof of what she's saying.

I think her issue is she's over the place. She's made promises that requires money and she doesn't have the slightest idea of how to implement them.

Just recently be said unpaid interns should be paid. Wtf?! Interns are interns because it's part of their curriculum, sometimes they will need to take second jobs and sometimes they will get stipends or other money to help but if you're rich you will have an advantage . That's just how it is, but you don't remedy it by throwing money at them.


Every issue she brings up, she's whining about "we need more money to spend"

Shes dangerously naive but speaks the language of the people who want free stuff

How do you not know about that story already? Your caping for military spending has Ike rolling in his grave at this point.

We already spend more money on health care than any other country in the world, while getting substandard results. It's EASY to find the money for a better health care system, we're literally already spending it.

Your :cape: for the establishment is unreal. Paying people for doing an actual job is now "throwing money at them" and setting up lucrative systems that advantage the rich is "just how it is." All the trillions of dollars floating around D.C., and you're talking like actually paying the low-level people on your staff is going to be the straw that breaks the bank.

:heh:

You throw out dog whistles as often as the most obnoxious white right-wing pro-capitalist radio host I've ever heard. :dead:



Fess up, whose alias ARE you? You suddenly appeared in higher learning like two weeks ago with the most naive hot takes and evidence-denying positions that you double-down on for pages. No one goes from 0 to 100 like that.

Come on, what was your other SN before that one got banned/put on ignore? :sas2:

They misplaced trillions due to accounting errors that's the definition of "making up numbers"? :mjlol:

only thing I disagree with her on is being too open on social media.

She's going to be making some uncomfortable votes in the future and she's going to play herself when she's mum on some serious issues.
I would normally agree but this generation is about that life of recording all of their fails and wins. thats just what they do. they dont know a world that everything is not exposed. so it is, what it is. be open, be transparent even in your growing stage when you will make some mistakes just from being naive and young or just ignorant of some things. So what. as long as i know you made the mistake due to those things and not due to you being evil or trying to be slick.
By putting all this info out there. it will help other grassroots regular people that always wanted to run but just were scared and didnt have the no how or what its like. so to have a possble real person in there that will keep it a Buck. is a good thing. this may help to push other regulars to start running for office.

hey stupid. Interns are paid because they aren't typically qualified (experience or education wise yet) and it's the opportunity to learn a trade (politics) ,which is something you can't get in school. So basically AOC wants the college to be free and the internship to be fully paid for. That's no longer an internship, it's a job. There's a cost to onboarding and trianing these kids, if they are going to cost money people are going to hire more qualified people and then you're going to have no interns being brought in.

My company just had a summer internship and we paid them some small amount. If they cost $20K (a livable wage ) we wouldnt' have gotten them. And who loses out? Us or the kids who is now sitting at home playing video games?

Lastly poor accounting practices doesn't mean you lost money, the money was spent on items and just wasnt tracked with the rigor we would like. Other money might be intentionally hidden for other reasons. but there's no "lost money".

@Perfectson out here sounding like a random Fox News host caping for crooks in DC while hating on a young minority.
Yea you must be a CaC :mjpls:


I don't agree with stupidity and she speaks alot of BS and simpletons like yourself eat it up. There's alot of bullshyt and because she can't talk smack back, yall are in love. There's no substance to the actual subjects and topics that speaks about. and she's all over the place and it's been less than 3 months.

sir, do you even know what a strawman is? Her saying the pentagon lost money is a strawman to why she wants free shyt (healthcare, colleges, internships, etc etc). I mean everything this lady wants is about funding some program that is going to give out money from tax payers. How do you not see this?
