Which is why I'm honestly surprised reich-wingers haven't tried to murder her
Knocking on wood.
There was that creepy anime assassination video by fellow congressman gosar, AOC has mentioned receiving multiple death threats and one of the capital rioters said he'd bring guns next time to "assassinate AOC", so awful threats are happening.
Same guy that tweeted a selfie from inside the capital "just want to incriminate myself a little lol.”
AOC is very clear that she believes had they not escaped during the riot, assassinations would have occurred.
I'm happy that she is safe.
Knock on wood.
I have no doubt they'd have killed more then have people there if given the chance.
I just want you to know, I read this comment after a single toke and got concerned someone laced my weed with something.
Are you trying to say that you walked to school, or brought your lunch?
She hasn't done anything to directly go after Fuckface 45. Once she does that...
The rapist with 34 felonies. I won't give the honor of calling him 45.
I've been calling him that since he was in office and Colbert called him "Putin's cock holster".
They did, though, on January 6th! They were looking for her and others.
I’m sure they have tried, I’m also sure she’s probably pretty careful about her day to day life knowing the amount of potential enemies she has
