Deeply shameful, indeed, but for a much longer list of shortcomings, misdeeds and atrocities.

Why would anyone want this idiot to be Ambassador to a Country we are allies with? Can’t he be Ambassador to Syria, Afghanistan, CUba, North Korea or Venezuela?

Whatever spurs us on to dive into the yuge popcorn bowl is entertaining and fun so I won’t knock it.

But shouldn’t AOC remember that Rahm is Obama’s long term Chicago buddy and Obama is, ahem, a person of color? So hands off? Or is AOC too big a celebrity and high up on the pedestal of Marxist Leninist feminism now to worry about that stuff?

If you are referring to “Pubes”, I think he really hit the nail on the “head” so to speak.

The least of his crimes.

No worries. Derps will shut her down, like they do. She's just about the noise.
