As Twitchy readers know, Nancy Pelosi has understandably grown tired of the immature and embarrassing antics of Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Presley, and of course, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Would appear the House Speaker is especially unimpressed with their behavior in social media.
We agree with her.
And since Pelosi DARED criticize the flailing foursome, AOC was front and center with a little clapback of her own, and it’s just painful.
That public “whatever” is called public sentiment.
And wielding the power to shift it is how we actually achieve meaningful change in this country. https://t.co/u6JtgwwRsk

Twitter is public sentiment?
Eh.
It’s more like noise on top of noise but whatever helps her sleep better at night.
I find it strange when members act as though social media isn’t important.
They set millions of ? on ? to run TV ads so people can see their message.
I haven’t dialed for dollars *once* this year, & have more time to do my actual job. Yet we’d rather campaign like it’s 2008.

Uh-huh, she’s mad.
Note, she might want to consider doing a little dialing for dollars or investing in some ads because if her own district polling is any indication, she could very well be a one-term rep.
I don’t believe it was a good idea for Dems to blindly trust the Trump admin when so many kids have died in their custody. It’s a huge mistake.
This admin also refuses to hand over docs to Congress on the whereabouts of families. People’s lives are getting bargained, & for what? https://t.co/h7gP8Wous1

REEEEEEE.
Guess Pelosi didn’t have time to fake a bunch of photos in front of an empty, fenced parking lot or go down to the border and claim a bunch of horrible things about CBP officers. She was too busy actually going to work.
It surely pains Trump to see children suffer.
He’s not a Machiavellian driven by a totalitarian ideology allowing him to justify large-scale human suffering for some imagined greater good.
That is, he’s not a socialist.https://t.co/lUO3iFtw2W

I don't think it's a good idea to trust a woman who cried at an empty parking lot, who said women were being forced to drink out of toilets, and who voted AGAINST funding to help these poor people at the border.

Don't forget lead a boycott of a business that was working to get beds for those being held.

AOC’s track record isn’t what we’d call … good.
List how many have died and the causes of each. Because what’s been in the news places no blame on CBP or ICE.
Be honest for a change. ?— Jason Claes (@JasonAClaes) July 7, 2019
"So many kids"? There have been 6, many of which were gravely ill when they arrived. 24 total deaths since 2016. ICE was holding an average of 42,000 people a day in 2018. You don't do math #AOC, you do very bad drama.

@AOC never cared about the well being of detainees that's why she should would not give struggling detention facilities any $$$. @RepAOC needs photos of dirty hungry children to drive her social media accounts and fill her campaign coffers.

Every death could have been avoided if we had a more secure border. pic.twitter.com/ioZbu0Xs7z

FYI, AOC has since blocked Liz Wheeler but that’s another story.

Oh, so THAT’S why she was really crying.
It all makes sense now.
