How dare Trump make that old lady's roof leak.  There is only one solution.  Free Puerto Rico from White Colonial Oppression.

Independence for Puerto Rico now!

Then it will be free to become a democratic socialist paradise!

I'm for it. Cut Puerto Rico loose from Uncle Sugar entirely. The United States does not need Puerto Rico. Cut the ties and make them an independent country.

Exactly.  Don't even give them a vote, just cut them loose.

There's no need or reason to give them a vote. When the idea has been floated of making Puerto Rico a state, they have basically said FU -- only if you make Spanish the official language. In other words, they don't want to be one of the United States of America -- they want to make everyone else part of the Estados Unidos de Puerto Rico.

I agree with letting PR go off on their own. Besides what is always in the news, I have heard too many stories from acquaintances that have lived there or stayed for extended periods to believe it would be nothing but a giant welfare office lobby. The left likes to use the word "systemic" a lot these days. The hand-out culture in the PR is systemic. Not to mention the bureaucratic shenanigans.  Cuba can have them.

I wonder how many millions of dollars of physical emergency aid is still sitting on pallets all over the island.

It gets a little bit weird

UPDATE: “someone” in AOC’s abuela’s family told GoFundMe that she won’t take the money, even though AOC previously claimed that her grandma was in dire straits (and it was Trump’s fault). @AOC still hasn’t acknowledged this effort or thanked us. Here’s the email from GoFundMe:

In the end, our campaign raised 100 thousand dollars and could have solved a problem in ten hours that AOC couldn’t solve in four years. We can all be proud of that. As for abuela, all we can do now is pray.

Maybe they're afraid someone will find out she's actually living high on the hog and/or this is shining a light on AOC hypocrisy?

AOC claims that reports of increased crime in big cities is "hysteria". This is the same woman who was screaming that Ted Cruz tried to have her murdered. Also that has a security detail when she visits her district, where she wants the police defunded.

The hysteria of the right about this chick is unreal. Clickbait I guess. Let them talk, never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake.

Hysteria? More like watching a train wreck that keeps on wrecking.

Hysteria?  no.  Clickbait is probably correct as AOC is an endless well of quotable comments.  I don't think anyone has officially told her to shut up, though I am sure someone has.

Attends the Met gala, where tickets START at $30,000, while wearing a "tax the rich" dress.

At least I'm seeing even democrats call her out on this. She could have taken the $30,000 and given it to a soup kitchen in the Bronx, and then spent whatever time she spent at the Met at the soup kitchen instead, handing out food to her poor constituents. As much as I despise her, I would have respected that.

There were suggestions in her defense that the ticket was a gift. There is a $50 per gift limit with a $100 per year limit for Congress. So if it was a gift, she should not stop at "Go" but go directly to jail.

Never heard of the Met Gala before, and frankly couldn't give a *expletive deleted*it about it.

I couldn't care less about it either, except when my tax dollars are paying for one of my employees to attend it.

“Tax the rich” is really code for “tax the *expletive deleted*ck out of the middle class” because they always write in carefully crafted exceptions for their wealthy liberal buddies while squeezing us more

"Rich" is just upper middle class (if not all of it).  The wealthy and connected leftists are the elites and don't have to follow all those silly laws.

AOC has many [many] faults, but I think she's a true believer.  She actually means "Tax the Rich".  Then probably onto a firing squad or communal farm for them.  She didn't wear that dress to that gala by accident or to be unintentionally ironic, she was threatening the other people there.

Even a cursory glance at her Instagram or Twitter shows she give zero *expletive deleted*s about donors and rich support.  The thinks she's a populist.
