I fear that the Boomer Generation is largely at fault for raising so many selfish, entitled, weak, whiny and useless assholes. AOC reminds me of the toddler throwing herself on the floor in the supermarket or mall or restaurant and throwing a tantrum because she didn't get her way. "Enlightened" parents listened to childless parenting authors and just ignored the tantrums or gave in, when they really need to be taken to the woodshed for an attitude adjustment.

So that tantrum throwing toddler grew into an adult and we see them on the news at these protests every day. It was inevitable that some of them would screech their way into public office.

Don't these idiots have jobs or lives outside the hissy fit circuit? Have any of them ever done anything to produce a product or to make lives better? They need to be marginalized and pushed to the side but the media continues giving them voice. We really need strong media pushback on this ilk to expose them as the parasitic assholes that they are.

For AOC she has no worries, her district is so progressive, liberal and hip she’s going to be re-elected regardless of the Red Wave. She cost her city thousands of jobs and was re-elected. Can’t fix stupid, not matter how hard you try.

AOC PRETENDS to be *handcuffed* in fake arrest protesting Supreme Court -- then raises her fist, breaking her fake handcuffs CLOWN WORLD LOL

Cuffs for thee,
Not for AOCee...

AOC: Prison changed me

Ma'am, you didn't go to prison

AOC: I still experienced what it was like to be arrested

Ma'am, you weren't arrested

AOC: I had handcuffs on

Ma'am, you were not cuffed

AOC: WHY DO YOU WANT TO DATE ME?

I can understand the idiot part - you get no argument from me - and I think calling her an idiot is being generous

however, I am having a great deal of angst in trying to figure out the useful part

for the life of me, I don't see anything useful about her at all

I see the Muslim ladies were "arrested" with her. Interesting, since they wear their religion on their sleeves, Islam generally forbids abortion unless life of mother is threatened or bad abnormalities are present. And the abortion, if allowed, must be within 120 days (prior to "ensoulement")- that's 16 weeks.

So why are they not protesting all those Muslim nations?

Useful?

AOC is able to raise lots of campaign cash for herself and for national democratic candidates throughout the country. Raising campaign cash counts far more than brains or common sense. Additionally, she was able to generate almost 5 million dollars (one million in less than a day) for Texans hit by power outages during the winter of 2021.

Her stunt outside of the Supreme Court will probably end up securing her reelection.

I don’t like it but she will be a force to be reckoned with for many years to come.

I have a fantasy of giving that woman a hickory shampoo.

Nah, do it like in the Olde Days.

Put her in a pillory in the town square and let passers-by throw over-ripe fruit and vegetables at her.

“I don’t like it but she will be a force to be reckoned with for many years to come.”

Hit the nail on the head.

The worst part is she isn't the only idiot on the hill and may not even qualify as the dumbest.

She's just the most visible imbecile of all.

One of the other commie morons, Ilhan Omar did the same exact thing, proving this was a planned stunt.

In political jargon, a useful idiot is a derogatory term for a person perceived as propagandizing for a cause without fully comprehending the cause's goals, and who is cynically used by the cause's leaders.[1][2] The term was originally used during the Cold War to describe non-communists regarded as susceptible to communist propaganda and manipulation.[1] The term has often been attributed to Vladimir Lenin, but this attribution has not been substantiated.[3][4]

I wondered the same thing. were they hollywood-style actors in costume, or real cops?

The cops were real, the stunt/hoax was them pretending to be handcuffed, because they knew they weren't going to be booked and arrested. They were merely taken to another area and let go later.

And it worked; all of the major media outlets reported that they were "arrested" and carefully only showing footage and images of them "handcuffed".

Those are US Capital police, not Supreme court police who would be protecting the court. While the hands behind the back is a stunt this entire thing seems off.

Pure optics, it has nothing to do with reality, nothing. It makes sense when you're a politician playing to a constituency that believes this horse crap.

AOC and Ilhan Omar coordinated Supreme Court arrest stunt with Soros-funded dark money group

https://www.washingtonexaminer...t-staged-soros-group

Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), and the 15 other Democratic lawmakers who were arrested Tuesday outside the Supreme Court coordinated the stunt with a progressive dark money group funded by billionaire George Soros.

Getting arrested was the whole point of the stunt, Ocasio-Cortez said in an Instagram post on Tuesday. She said organizers of the Center for Popular Democracy Action Fund asked her and her colleagues to "submit themselves for arrest in front of the Supreme Court."

The New York lawmaker insisted in the post what she and her colleagues did was "very different than a 'publicity stunt.'"

Omar spokesman Jeremy Slevin tweeted about 30 minutes before the lawmakers hit the street that a film crew with the dark money group would be on the scene live streaming the event.

"Members of Congress, including [Omar] will be participating in a civil disobedience at the Supreme Court, potentially including arrests, shortly," Slevin tweeted before the lawmakers began illegally obstructing the street outside the Supreme Court. "@CPDAction is live streaming it. Follow along!"

ndrew Friedman, the co-executive director of CPD Action, told the Washington Post in 2018 that the group and its sister organization, Center for Popular Democracy, receive over $1 million a year from Soros's Open Society Foundations.

As a 501(c)(4) nonprofit group, CPD Action isn't required to disclose the identity of its donors.

CPD Action said its leaders were among the 18 nonmembers of Congress who were arrested alongside Ocasio-Cortez and the other Democratic lawmakers on Tuesday.

"Moments ago, leaders from CPD Action network organizations, members of Congress & more participated in a powerful civil disobedience demonstration & got arrested to protect our RIGHT to SAFE & LEGAL abortions," the dark money group posted on Facebook Tuesday afternoon.

"This is a clear message to SCOTUS and lawmakers that #WeWontBackDown until ALL pregnancy-abled people are treated as full human beings with the autonomy to make decisions about OUR OWN bodies," the group added.

CPD Action linked to a fundraising page in its Facebook post that urged activists to "continue acts of civil disobedience," such as the one it coordinated with the 17 arrested members of Congress on Tuesday, to secure access to abortion across the country.

Ocasio-Cortez was widely mocked by conservative commentators for creating the impression that she was handcuffed by police during her arrest. The New York lawmaker was filmed crossing her hands behind her back while she was being escorted off the scene by police. She then pumped her fist toward a crowd of supporters while still detained by police.

Ocasio-Cortez insisted she wasn't pretending to be in handcuffs during her arrest.

"No faking here," Ocasio-Cortez said in a tweet on Wednesday. "Putting your hands behind your back is a best practice while detained, handcuffed or not, to avoid escalating charges like resisting arrest. But given how you lied about a fellow rape survivor for 'points,' as you put it to me, I don't expect much else from you."

A Capitol Police spokesperson told the Washington Examiner that nobody arrested outside the Supreme Court on Tuesday was handcuffed.

"As is standard for peaceful, planned protests, those who were arrested were ticketed and released on site," the spokesperson said. "Nobody was handcuffed, as is standard for a noncustodial arrest. Everyone was arrested for Crowding, Obstructing, or Incommoding (DC Code § 22–1307). They have up to 15 days to pay a $50 fine or they can have a hearing.
