    Get back to me when it is actually passed into law.

    Anybody can "propose" anything.

    A legislator could "propose" making Bigfoot's Birthday a National Holiday.

    When it is actually passed into Law, I may take the Mock Outrage of the Link in the OP seriously.

    Until then?:bored:

    PS--Isn't it amazing how easily that AOC trolls the RW?

    And, the RW Always takes the bait?

    The RW's AOC Obsession is really something to behold.:salute:

    Isn't she the new face of the Democrats? Driving the new agenda?

    Of course she is.

    Oh, but they did until her mouth started looking bad on Democrats. Now everybody is trying to distance from her.

    lol

    Now the squad wants to kill min. wage, just to spite other Democrats.

    https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019...reaten-kill-minimum-wage-bill-spite-moderates

    In what appears to be one of the most deliberate examples yet of the Democrats progressive caucus sabotaging the party's own agenda because it didn't get exactly what it wanted, the Hill reports that some House Dems are prepared to scuttle a bill to raise the national minimum wage to $15 an hour if a procedural motion from the Republicans is added to the bill.

    So does that mean Trump was trolling the LW last Sunday and they took the bait?

    An ICE facility was attacked last week by a transgender antifa activist who used AOC's rhetoric.


    SHE is defacto evidence that ICE isn't going anywhere.

    They are members of progressive hatred and intolerance.

    You seriously can't make this TOTAL LUNACY up. How long until the democrat party denounces these 4 idiots?

    These attempts to eliminate agencies is as stupid as the gop wanting to abolish the IRS. Some other agency will just have to do the same job.

    Your position is unreasonable. Why is waiting for something to be passed necessary before people can discuss it on a political forum?

    Of course it can be discussed. But all threads about AOC seem to be started and dominated by RW members. No problem with that, of course, but it isn't a discussion. Few support AOC's ideas on the left (here) and you won't find people to support them. So it would appear that there is nothing to discuss.

    Just because a person is an elected Dem does not automatically mean that all Dem voters support them or their ideas.

    I'm no AOC supporter - but the country got along just fine before the creation of ICE and Homeland Security. Saving money by consolidating government is not a bad thing. I thought conservatives were all for smaller government ... guess they lied.

    Perhaps a good idea, but both parties are invested in power.

    The proposal has no choice.

    Sadly the party faithful would continue to vote for Rep. Sasquatch then proceed to purchase gifts for Bigfoot's birthday party.

    AOC is a low IQ individual and she's championed by the democrat party.

    She's a top democrat.

    Its a sweet catch 22.

    Fair point. If she is reelected, it will be a different story!

    Omar represents her district only and not even a big minority of the Dem Party.
