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? “Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present Generation to preserve your Freedom! I hope you will make good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven, that I ever took half the Pains to preserve it.” ― John Adams "Fire can be our friend; whether it's toasting marshmallows, or raining down on Charlie." - Principal Skinner. | |||

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. Silent | |||

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. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

“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. | |||

Back, and to the left |
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. https://twitter.com/IlhanMN/st...-of-supreme-court%2F "I’m not going to read Time Magazine, I’m not going to read Newsweek, I’m not going to read any of these magazines; I mean, because they have too much to lose by printing the truth"- Bob Dylan, 1965 | |||

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] . | |||

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. __________________________________ NRA Benefactor I lost all my weapons in a boating, umm, accident. http://www.aufamily.com/forums/ | |||

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. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."
