Does AOC know something about Boebert seeking a pardon?

[zuul]

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC)

Hey quick question Boebert, did you ask for a pardon after tweeting the Speaker’s location on Jan 6th? You and the KKK Caucus have been really quiet about it today and given how much y’all have to say I’m not sure why no one’s responding to this simple question.

Maybe your friend @RepMTG can answer! Did either of you seek a pardon? Just trying to clear some things up.

2. Recommended.

I think so!

3. K&R,

[aeromanKC]

4. 1984 called?

No worries Bobo. Liz traced the call and has the receipts.

[Quakerfriend]

15. Yeah really, 1984 ?? WTH does that mean?

[calimary]

20. Hey we were all afraid that 1984 was the end of the world

because of the George Orwell book! Turned out to be nothing much. Except Reagan got re-elected. That was kind of a bummer. What else was it about 1984 that was so dreadful? We hosted the Summer Olympics in L.A. that year. I covered some of it because I was still working back then. *

Her birth date is December 19, 1986.

(*Edited -I was doing the math in the wrong direction!)

22. 1984?

My 2nd year of college after my Navy stint. Met my soon to be better half. It was a blast start to finish. You mean bang, bang barbie wasn't even alive yet? No wonder it was a hell of a good year.

[onenote]

30. There is virtually no chance Boebert has actually read 1984.

Maybe she read the Cliff Notes.

[paleotn]

31. I don't think she could read even that.

[colorado_ufo]

36. Or ever in her life has used the word "dystopian."

I wonder who wrote this for her?

[madinmaryland]

47. She and empty-g were drinking boxed wine with Jeanine Pirro and Pirro, after a box of wine..

Suggested they make fun of educated people’s vocabulary. Since the two dunces didn’t understand that they just went along and got drunker whilst screaming that word while all were dancing naked.

[colorado_ufo]

58. LOL!!!

[LuckyLib]

63. My take as well. Too many multi-syllable words.

[Irish_Dem]

39. No chance she wrote that text.

Too many big words.

She never read 1984 and doesn't know what dystopia even means.

[ewagner]

56. Agree....

I think it's a lame attempt at projection....somehow trying to like AOC and Dems to a dystopian future for the nation....

...and yes, I DO SUSPECT a great deal of wine was involved in making the tweet..

[Irish_Dem]

57. She was drinking wine while her publicist wrote the tweet.

Actually it is a pretty good tweet, I have to admit.

Literate, witty, with reference to iconic work of modern literature.

Yes of course it is pure projection. The GOP is going to deliver to the US a most dismal dystopian future.

[MontanaMama]

43. Thanks calimary...

I was going going to say that Boebert wasn’t even born in 1984 and I doubt she ever even read the book.

[jmowreader]

51. She wasn't two in 1984

She was two years from being born in 1984.

1984 was a decent year for me...I rode a motorcycle from Tennessee to Idaho and spent the last six months of it in Korea.

[calimary]

52. Exactly!

Fixed my error up there. D’Oh!

[Tetrachloride]

5. I can imagine that AOC is waving the red flag in front of a bull

AOC herself is the bait, trying to draw out the perps.

[TheBlackAdder]

23. And there is a big ass anvil behind it.

24. thanks for the memories

25. Bugs did it like a boss!

6. K&R. nt

[rubbersole]

7. Don't mess with AOC.

She is brilliant on social media. And as smart as any of the younger generation members in congress. I'd like to see this exchange continue. Popcorn 🍿!

[Autumn]

8. That woman knows how to do things.

Perfection. I'm betting AOC knows boobert and empty asked for pardons.

[Cracklin Charlie]

14. I don't think the pardons were just there for the askin'.

They probly couldn’t go Jared’s prices.

Oh, well…sucks to be them.

[dchill]

26. They went to Jared?

[SilasSouleII]

34. I see what you did there

[Talitha]

37. "They went to Jared?"

Nicely played!!!

[tishaLA]

40. In the video testimony last night, he said

that when people were "whining" about quitting if whatshisname did certain things so he just ignored it, ,he was focused on pardons. Unless I misheard him.

[70sEraVet]

42. I caught that, too. Probably the most work he did throughout the admin.

Though I'm sure he took his cut.

[GreenEyedLefty]

54. That tidbit was 100% included on purpose

[2naSalit]

9. I have heard in the past...

That pardons for crimes committed during the coup attempt are null and void anyway.

Now I have to go find a citation, stand by.

[MontanaMama]

44. Wait.

Did you mean to tell us to stand back and stand by?

[2naSalit]

45. Why, yes.

Though there's not likely going to be a tweet inviting anyone to a wild anything anywhere at any time.

[MontanaMama]

10. Love that AOC just calls her "Boebert"!

I'll bet she knows something Bobo doesn't want her to know....chumming the water like a pro.

[cilla4progress]

11. Definitely!

Don't mess with AOC, Bobert.

She will smack you done every time!

That's what smart does!

Cowardly bullies!!

[cilla4progress]

13. Definitely!

Don't mess with AOC, Bobert.

She will smack you done every time!

That's what smart does!

Cowardly bullies!!

[ultralite001]

12. Someone needs to rat out the pipe bomber...

That is all…

[Patterson]

16. That's probably MTG.

[notinkansas]

61. Just watching the footage of the bomber

I immediately thought - that looks to me like a woman's gait.

[czarjak]

18. I personally know four Trumpbillies that were there that WON'T account for their activities.

[dalton99a]

17. Kick

[ProudMNDemocrat]

19. The Double Economics and International Relations Major vs. the HS Dropout..

Certainly not a fair fight.

AOC is one smart woman and has a way with words.

[hoosierspud]

21. No way Boebert wrote that tweet!

1. She probably never heard of "1984", much less read it.

2. The big words describing it are way beyond her skills.

[ProfessorGAC]

28. Beat Me To It!

Totally agree that there is zero chance she wrote that.
Bang Bang not only wouldn't know what dystopian means, she wouldn't be able to spell it correctly.

[2naSalit]

46. There were even...

A couple properly placed commas in there too! I doubt she wrote it too.

[jcgoldie]

29. 1984???

Wasnt that fucking “morning in America”?? Does she even know who the president was?

[niyad]

49. Think it refers to the novel.

[Celerity]

64. That irony was the first thing I thought of.

Lil Gunny meant the Orwell novel, but for real world US Rethugs, 1984 was all Reaganite 'Morning in 'Murica' posturing (that was, unfortunately, extraordinarily effective)

[Blue Owl]

48. Thinking she stole a Tiedrich

[area51]

53. +1 n/t

[SouthBayDem]

27. Does Boebert even READ?

I doubt her 1984 reference is based on real knowledge of the book. AOC was a bit too generous right there.

[FakeNoose]

35. Maybe she reads her paycheck, but that's about it

I'll guarantee you Boebert didn't write this nasty "burn" reply to AOC. Someone else wrote it for her, and it's somebody much smarter. Boebert flunked her GED 3 times (so I've heard) and I doubt she can even spell "dystopian," let alone tell you what the word means.

[Emile]

32. Judgement day is coming! She will face the music too!

[RealityBasedNewYorkr]

33. Treason Barbie says what?

What an utter pillock Boebert is

[Marcuse]

38. She said that as if she thought Orwellian dystopia was a bad thing. Is Boebert rejecting Trumpery?

[usonian]

41. Did I miss any committee mention of the "recon" tours certain people gave before Jan 6?

That might be the Hitchcock/Serling surprise.
Hope so.

[SpankMe]

50. [B]leak, immoral, thuggish and deadly totalitarian dystopian

Describes the current Republican party to a tee. Project very much?

[Hotler]

55. Some say that the person in video planting the pipe bombs in DC walks like MTG.

Need to find video of Boebert walking so we can compare. She'd be dumb enough to be talked in to doing something as stupid. Now I wonder if the ones seeking pardons had anything to do with the pipe bombs. That investigation seems to have gone dark.

59. The tweet/video

Was written in 1984.
