Trump's D.C. Takeover - Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez



Donald Trump's D.C. takeover isn't about crime.

If Donald Trump truly cared about crime in D.C., he wouldn't have pardoned hundreds of rioters who attacked the police on January 6th. - 08/13/2025.

Oh yeah MTG was defending her. MTG is on a crusade against sexism. And I think she felt Stefanik has been screwed over too.

Yeah

Some sort of intra Maga war. There was a thread in GD yesterday about Loomer versus MTG that was..well it was something else. I don’t think Trump is good for the mental health of even his supporters..
