Showing Original Post only (View all)AOC is not who you may think she is... [View all]
Here is what Ocasio-Cortez said to activists:
Should Leader Pelosi become the next Speaker of the House, we need to tell her that weve got her back in showing and pursuing the most progressive energy agenda that this country has ever seen.
Should Leader Pelosi become the next Speaker of the House, we need to tell her that weve got her back in showing and pursuing the most progressive energy agenda that this country has ever seen.
And
One of the things I admire so much about Leader Pelosi is that she comes from a space of activism and organizing. And so I think that she really appreciates civic engagement. What Im here to do is to support the folks who are here.
She supports Pelosis bid for Speaker. AOC believes in a progressive agenda, just like Pelosi.
Be proud of these new leaders and support them. They are the future of our Party. We need everyone. Stop buying the bullshit from rightwing media sources.

I wonder why he never endorsed Sharice Davids (indeed, he campaigned against her in the primary)?

I wonder if Pelosi knew in advance that they were going to hold the sit-in. I doubt it...

Not a 50/50 chance that she did. If she did, it's a 100% chance, if she didn't it's 0% chance....

She is (or was, they've removed that page from their website) on the Board of Justice Democrats.
