You know, like the old "I can haz cheezburger?"
AOC publicly announced she's freezing her eggs so the world has a long-term future possibility of little AOC-lets popping up.
The piece has all the other funness you'd expect.
First, there's her distancing herself from the radical Democratic Socialists of America while still trying to triangulate off them for support of a lot of people who do back them. That said, per my riff on Klip, she was already creating her own Overton Window on Israel on official foreign policy a full year ago. And, even before that, she was one of the leading Pergressuve Cucks in the push to throw Ilhan Omar under the bus over "the Benjamins." THAT, in turn, was way back in 2019; a full year before that, she showed herself a squish on BDS.
Second, there's the attempt to thrust herself into the headlines by saying she's "open" to running for US Senate or President. She is old enough to be already eligible for the former, and for the latter as of 2028.
On the Senate? Chuck Schumer's seat comes up in 2028. To successfully primary him, she'd definitely have to fully claim an anti-Zionist line she's been reluctant to grasp. Frankly, I don't think she can pull it off. She'd also probably have to be honest, and not merely performative as in the past, on any "tax the rich" angle vs Chuck being in bed with Wall Street. He'd still be under 80 and would surely run for re-election. Kirsten Gillibrand comes up again in 2030.
Indeed, AOC the presumable pretendian JAP might shift yet more right vs Schnorrer Schumer.
President? With her tacking right while Kamala is a Zionist Cop pretends to tack left on Israel, two women of color will have overlapping lanes.
