xobekim 'Boost candidates' is code to primary Democrats. forcing them to spend their political and financial Capital, weakening their ability to go on and win against the fascist. More Bernie bullshit... Just like Trump tear it all down.
Aren’t your 15 minutes of fame up already...
We need senators too really bad
It’s nothing to do with that PAC money, she’s just so morally superior
Gdad1 I like her a lot. I just have to wonder about her Bernie endorsement
Why is color and a vagina more important then policies ? All you get is AOC or an Elizabeth Warren. No substance an no common sense. Forget math .... It just should be about what they know man or woman of color or not !
Go on with your bad self
You're just a face.
Keep tabs on that $ trail.....
OMG . . . More Teen Queen Wannabes that were always on the outside, looking in. I’d prefer more educated and diversified women with real world knowledge and not the recent imature, dull, political gold-diggers looking for their 15-minutes of fame just for shits & giggles.
Why would anyone care about the race or gender identity of a candidate? Dont we judge based on content of character or nah
Do they all have to be of sub average IQ like Sandy Cortez?
Ah... yes, the most important components of a candidate's campaign: their sex and their race.
'a slate of seven endorsements for female candidates who in some cases are competing against other Democrats backed by party campaign committees.' 'Join us, or we'll primary you'. I call this 'the B(u)rnie effect'. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
it’s a PAC. you can say PAC - u know, like you do with all your other political candidates’ coverage (*this is a gr8 initiative i’m just clarifying bc many ppl on this hellhole site seem to not know the full meaning of PAC & just rage against them regardless of context🙄)
Vote for ScherieMurray ❤️❤️❤️
Fill the quota
AOC : 'PACS are EVIL!' 'Unless of course, I launch one.' 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
NPR SUPPORTS AOC ? ARE YOU NUTS?
AOC should raise money to buy one way tickets to Cuba, Venezuela, China etc. Maybe and just maybe, after that, this ignorant will learn the real meaning of socialism
How many of her endorsed candidates are challengers to Democrat incumbents?
You’re doing awesome inspiring work
aoc is changing our party! sorry dnc it’s going to happen 😜 don’t try to stop it ☺️

Good
But the president has to be an old white man. -- AOC
AOC
Ahhhhh...so she's sexist. Got it.
Cool beans...what’s your job again? I guess it’s going to be about getting people elected to office 🤔 I dont believe that’s the job of an elected official, civil servant of the people, by the people and for the people.
Oh it is gonna be so crooked
One term Congresswoman. Hopefully. Thank God,
Her first PAC was fraudulent.... More dark money.
Guess she needs more spending money
All lefties?
Here comes the dark money baby
No more please. Too squishy.
Was more than impressed by and a firm supporter of AOC . Until. She came out in support of SenSanders 😫
I’m all for her. She has chutzpah and intelligence. She may seem extreme, but this is the time of the Millennials. We had our heyday. Now it’s up to her generation to carry us forward. It’s their world now, really.
so she created a super pac
The OAC-PAC will be DOA⚰️
Why people call lefty “ progressive “ when they are more close to fascist when they became power? Progressive is another thing , no lefty.
Is AOC still a representative for NY? When is her 15 minutes of usefulness going to be done?
She is good.
I don't care if she names 1000 female candidates. AOC does not speak for/nor understand the Dem party. NEW RULES GOING FORWARD: Not be allowed to run in Dem party, with all its advantages. Require them to run in own party. No more using and abusing Democrats.
With all the money she stole from the campaign fund?
yay! Super PAC’s & dark money in elections is cool now!
Defund Cooperate Candidates
LoL. Free drinks for all these losers. AOC is lowering the bar.
Elites and their followers hate her because she was a bartender and she is beating them at their games
