A Bronx office of the US House member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was vandalized early on Monday, according to New York City police, who say they are investigating.
The vandalism occurred after Ocasio-Cortez on Friday voted against a defense spending bill amendment authored by the Republican congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia that would have eliminated funding for the system protecting Israel from missiles.
Her vote on Greene’s amendment prompted the Democratic Socialists of America to issue a statement accusing Ocasio-Cortez of backing Israel’s “eliminationist campaign against the Palestinian people”.
I think American progressives need to focus on repairing their democracy before expecting it to reflect their values.
For a decade I’ve seen this pattern of progressives putting the carriage before the horse. You guys get lost in the issues and forget that you need to actually win the election for any positive change to materialize.
Lots of Do Nothing Cunts in the DNC… but this backlash against AOC is both misplaced and unproductive. You guys made this mistake with Harris and now your economy is likely permanently reduced.
If Harris had won at least you guys could have protested this issue without having the president sic ICE and active military on you.
