Proving she’s not an establishment Dem by having the ability to read the fucking room.

    Are you a right wing moron or a genocide loving Zionist scumbag? Oops sorry, I said the same thing twice. I'll put you down for both.

    She's one of the only notable young Democrat leaders. Not hard to see why she gets support. Even bad socialism is better than whatever the fuck we currently have.

    The economic system where oligarchs use the military industrial complex, insider trading with market manipulation and tariffs to put tax money directly into their pockets?

    It’s beyond just the violations of capitalism. Now it’s just transparent corruption.

    They’ve invented something new. It’s called Crapitalism.

    Since 2011, more than $1 trillion has left developing countries annually in illicit financial outflows. A 2016 study found that $12 trillion had been siphoned out of developing economies.[15]

    In a 2011 forensic study of grand corruption cases, the World Bank found the United States was the leading victim of illegal incorporation of entities involved in money laundering schemes.[24] The Department of the Treasury estimates that $300 billion is laundered annually in the United States in violation of US law.[25]

    This kleptocratic financial system flourishes in the United States by illegally abusing the United States' liberal economic structure for two reasons.

    1. First, the United States does not have a beneficial ownership registry, and kleptocrats take advantage of this privacy benefit.[26]
    2. Second, kleptocrats take advantage of incorporation agents, lawyers, and realtors to unknowingly launder their money.

    Yeah that sounds about right. Probably conservative estimates, to boot.

    It was about to but then Trump cancelled it before it came in. Shocker.

    She's trusted, she's smart, she's always 10 steps ahead, and most of all, she's a GOOD person, and incorruptible. She's thinking about the people, and she makes it very clear she works for US. I don''t have to agree with everything she's for, but that's okay, she's still the kind of person I want to see in charge.

    Why is she incorruptible...? Calling people that seems of dubious wisdom to me 😅 its kinda hard to say whether she's corruptible until she's sat in a position of serious power long-term, and generally "incorruptible" isnt a good adjective for humans 😅

    Let's wait for perfect instead. That'll work out wonderfully!
