409-2?! And the only nay votes were republicans?! What the actual fuck?!
And this is why I'm not surprised at all the US is in the situation it is in right now. We have two viable political parties: one is a pack of gremlins doing their best to destroy anything good, and a party of "the adults in the room" that don't have the juice, the wherewithal, or the drive to do anything about it. Even if you're one to believe that the Democrats are the "good guys", they're the proverbial good men who do nothing that let evil thrive. Rational or not (not), people have been pushed into making more and more extreme choices in a collective attempt to make the powers that be listen to them. Now we all have to pay for it.
So AOC voted for this?
Yes, see under Ocasio-Cortez in the 'yea's

Welp so much for her being the progressive and hope we had.
She still insists on being a Democrat, despite constantly shit-talking other Dems, instead of going independent like Bernie or starting a new party. She's always been one to yell and shout but when the time comes to actually do something, she always mysterious disappears or falls in line.
Believe it or not Nancy Pelosi was once for universal healthcare. I bet 20 years AOC if staying on this path will be no better then her
She'll be rich tho :D
She and Harris, they want to be seen as leaders of the opposition but don’t actually do any opposing
They do vote on thousands of these per year and often rely heavily on the advice of their team (as in their own policy advisor and staff, not the Democrats) so it may have just been a bad call.
Im not from the US but I wouldn't throw out AOC over one bad vote. If I was her constituent I'd definitely call/email her to let her know how I felt about this issue and that it was an enormous letdown though. Gotta advocate.
And Ilhan Omar? Even the “radical” ones fall in line, huh
I wonder why
Maybe because AI porn of her is very popular on 4chan.
Just when I think that the Dems might stop being fucking stupid, they capitulate to the fascists
They're not stupid at all. They're all playing us like the fools that we are.
"Nothing I could do." - Phil 'Democrat' Burnell
Democrats would rather lose to fascists than win as the people's champions.
There's no bribe money in the latter.
When Trump fervently supports your bill you know it's a good idea. /s
Then why the fuck did you vote for it?
I guess the first amendment just isn't that important to her. Or maybe she was threatened with violence.
What the fuck
