@aoc - Twitter Profile Analysis

Excited and humbled to share that this evening I was selected to serve as @RepRaskin’s #2 on the House Oversight Committee. Thank you to my colleagues on @OversightDems for entrusting me with this responsibility. I’m thrilled to get to work with our incredible Oversight team!

The effort to separate the officers who murdered Tyre Nichols from the system of policing that produced them is palpable. Police killings in the US reached a record high in 2022. That has only been rewarded with more funding at the expense of schools, hospitals, housing, & more.

Woof. Even my psilocybin amendment did better than this 😅 https://t.co/ZuyUYRl6QI

In case you’re curious about why this man is so angry with me, it may be because I introduced an amendment to a GOP bill that would prohibit oil and gas companies who engage in stock buybacks from leasing federal lands. Seems as though I hit a nerve! 😇 https://t.co/AoLRNQDh8f

Fewer things are more predictable than Republicans having a meltdown when I’m clearing them in debate. 💅🏽 https://t.co/AoLRNQDh8f

brb crying because Ms. Jacobs, my second grade teacher, showed up to surprise me at our monthly town hall and kept a note I wrote her over 20 years ago 😭😭

What’s the thinking behind publicly insulting the very Dem votes one needs (but doesn’t have) to pass a controversial judicial candidate…? @NYSenatorRivera is a champion for our Latine community and leader on single payer healthcare. Cuomo-style bullying isn’t gonna fly here. https://t.co/9FQDxVSIVb

Did you know that ongoing exposure to NO2 from gas stoves is linked to reduced cognitive performance https://t.co/1bjmHqnHVa

Nearly 2 years to the day the US Capitol was attacked by fascists, we see fascist movements abroad attempt to do the same in Brazil. We must stand in solidarity with @LulaOficial’s democratically elected government. 🇧🇷 The US must cease granting refuge to Bolsonaro in Florida. https://t.co/rzsZl9jwZY

I thought under this new GOP majority we were supposed to get 72 hours notice on legislation? Or @RepMTG are you already folding on the principle of this “concession” from McCarthy in your very first vote? 😂 https://t.co/M60h9XwFhO

😴

If only! If Dems took a shot every time McCarthy lost a Republican, we’d all be unconscious by now🍹 https://t.co/Vb1i29o4rv

😂😂😂 https://t.co/kgNDo0PTuL

What is it with people randomly blaming the mere existence of others for their own descent into embracing neo-nazism? Like girl you did that all on your own. Unless her suggestion here is she started endorsing great replacement theory because she couldn’t treat me like the help https://t.co/5dC2JsKoNY

NYC has a rich history of electing powerful, progressive Latine officials who advance workers’ rights, defend our right to bodily autonomy, and work for a better justice system. I strongly urge our State Senate to reject LaSalle’s nomination. We deserve so much better than this. https://t.co/0r7XitVKcD

Why do you need a full week to confirm if you live where you said you did, worked where you said you did, went to school where you said you did…? https://t.co/ioGFGVVvV7

Thank you for calling attention to my “pet project” of making New York State a global leader in combating climate change and creating tons of good, high-paying jobs for people in the process. I’m proud of it! 🌎🗽 What’s your pet project? Being a hater for a living? https://t.co/VkpBLQyNdu

The timeline of when Zuckerberg became aware of Cambridge Analytica and their election efforts is a matter of extraordinary importance. That’s why I questioned him about it. His testimony to Congress said March 2018. Newly exposed documents reveal he knew as early as Jan 2017. https://t.co/KMRLUxrc0R

When the worst people you know are all fighting https://t.co/2iedzNPz68

And yet y’all still voted against raising the minimum wage https://t.co/tFkTHf2OAO

ASÍ SE HACE 🇦🇷

Journalism is supposed to speak truth to power, not bow to it. https://t.co/RRa3IqiQaN

🚨NYC: Do NOT use Uber this Monday, Dec 19th! Local drivers won a raise that was set to kick in 12/19. Uber sued to stop it, despite hiking prices 37% higher than they did in 2019. How to help: - Turn off your Uber app on Monday, - Use another service, & - SPREAD THE WORD! 🚘💰 https://t.co/jPRyt2La7f

You’re a public figure. An extremely controversial and powerful one. I get feeling unsafe, but descending into abuse of power + erratically banning journalists only increases the intensity around you. Take a beat and lay off the proto-fascism. Maybe try putting down your phone. https://t.co/BniyYUqWMY

Somos Boricuas, pa’ que tú lo sepas 😉🇵🇷 https://t.co/hC0nDtNRuk

Breakdown of FTX timeline: 1. Nov 9th: SBF emails the Bahamian AG with an offer to unfreeze FTX withdrawals in the Bahamas 2. On Nov 10, Bahamian gov puts FTX in foreign provisional liquidation. This was the day before FTX was supposed to file bankruptcy in the US. Then… https://t.co/QfHKRxIcPD

Bankman-Fried was set to testify before the House tomorrow. Tonight he was arrested. While I am disappointed we will not have the opportunity to present our line of questioning, we look forward to more information coming to light and justice being served in this case. https://t.co/HS9u1n5Kur

Been there. This is one of many ways Congress structures itself to exclude and push out the few working class people who *do* get elected. These systems are built for people who can lean on wealth. It’s shocking how detached from reality a lot of the details are - but I got you! https://t.co/nHTnbQZp0u

Not once in this long soliloquy does Sinema offer a single concrete value or policy she believes in. She lays out no goals for Arizonans, no vision, no commitments. It’s “no healthcare, just vibes” for Senate. People deserve more. Grateful this race & nomination has opened up. https://t.co/qWvuKCT50r

We must challenge the notion that militarized policing equates public safety. The footage that is being shared is extremely traumatizing. You do not have to watch the video to know cosmetic change is not enough. It's time to reimagine what community safety for all looks like.

on that point: this squad was created as part of Memphis' response to rising violent crime in recent years, deploying what's known as "hot spot" policing -heavy enforcement on small groups of people. In this way, Nichols' death seems linked to our moment's reactionary politics

#TyreNichols family asked this be the video we share of him. Watch it & know Tyre, like all our loved ones, deserved to live a long beautiful life free from state sanctioned murder. For Black & brown folks around the US, police violence is the greatest threat to that future. https://t.co/hT15Emss8T

Great to see @AOC highlight that Title 42 isn’t just amoral, it’s illegal. “Last year Pres Biden promised to end Title 42. Instead he's now expanding restrictions on asylum. But the right to seek asylum is enshrined in domestic and international law.”

Duncan: Educate Yourself AOC: While I cannot control the fact that the other side has made the assumption that I am uneducated, one of the things that I can say is that I may not be here with the mission to increase profits for corporations..

AOC: Let's break down this myth that oil companies need even more permits.. The oil industry already possesses 9000 unused permits on federal land. Nearly 5000 permitted in 2021 alone. The oil industry already has 10 years of unused leases…

since this will come up a lot in media coverage of Tyre Nichols in Memphis: while I get that it seems narratively significant that the officers are black. Statistically, it is unsurprising. In tracking police violence, we never found that race of the officer made much difference

.@RepAOC @aoc: "We are willing to hold administrations accountable for the rights of immigrants and immigrant families regardless of party or allegiance...Last year President Biden promised to end Title 42, instead he is now expanding restrictions on asylum seekers..."

77 congressional Democrats write to Biden: “We write to express our great concern over the new asylum restrictions announced by your administration.” The letter is led by @AOC @SenatorMenendez @CoryBooker. https://t.co/5SO5bhVYJY

Palestinians may be banned from flying their flag under an apartheid government, but we can still proudly do it at my office. I’m proud to be a Palestinian American and I want the Palestinian people to know that not all Americans support apartheid. No one can erase our existence.

In a stunning move, @CorrectionNYC is walking back its commitment to transparency by blocking @NYC_BOC from accessing Rikers video footage needed for oversight and safety. https://t.co/kJn6uMAXY3

Three years ago I miscarried in the second trimester of a pregnancy. It’s a painful memory but something many women have experienced.   I traveled hours to the nearest clinic, and I encountered anti-choice protesters. Thankfully I got the care I needed that day.

Help, Housing, and Hope: For 57 years @elmcor has been changing lives. Now they are opening up a new building of affordable housing this year. @aoc @repaoc is helping make it happen. Watch at 4:20, 5:55, and 6:55! For more information https://t.co/UjLfWQPmx0 718-651-0096

oh hey gosh it turns out democrats like @katieporteroc @ewarren @JoeBiden @AOC were right about inflation being driven by corporate price gouging kansas city federal reserve report here: https://t.co/sC9szwPQ0z https://t.co/g5YczBodrD

Choice words from a gas exec in emails foiaed by by @ccspatz confirmed the hunch: the gas industry was worried about the public turning against the gas stove https://t.co/zP11I3SYDT

Congratulations to the nurses of Mount Sinai and Montefiore Medical Center for reaching a tentative agreement this morning. Hospital management is now committed to an aggressive hiring plan and to immediately implementing safe staffing ratios. Solidarity with @NYNurses 💪🏽

The man holding the door for George Santos is Vish Burra, a Steve Bannon henchman and leader of the New York Young Republican Club. NYYRC is an elite fascist networking nexus with strong ties to far-right foreign political parties. Burra is Santos' "operations director." https://t.co/YIPJuq8Uy4

It’s just funny that as the quality of everything from airlines to infrastructure to food safety and availability to healthcare continues to precipitously erode around us millions of people blame socialism, an economic system that we do not live under

INBOX — @AOC: "I believe that ICE, an agency that was just formed in 2003 during the Patriot Act era, is a rogue agency that should not exist."

Some street safety news for western Queens: one of the worst intersections in Astoria, at the entrance of the RFK/Triboro, will get a redesign (curb extensions, crosswalks, new bus stops) with new funds allocated by @AOC to @NYC_DOT. https://t.co/OgCOwyJRyF

Kevin gives the keys to the kingdom to the Freedom Caucus arsonists and there is just 1 no vote from the “moderates”. Tells you everything about the current state of the GOP conference. https://t.co/nCQppRdxPh

To all of our patients, to all New Yorkers, we want to be absolutely clear: If you are sick, please do not delay getting medical care, regardless of whether we are on strike. In fact, we invite you to come join us on the strike line after you've gotten the care you need. https://t.co/019D03aalS

NEW: The IRS targeted low-income wage earners for audits vastly more than other American taxpayers in 2022. They were audited at a rate 5.5x higher than people in virtually every other tax bracket, per a new Syracuse University analysis.

That feeling when you finally get sworn-in for your third term in Congress. Centering the people always. 118th, let’s go.

Sworn in to the 118th U.S. Congress just before 2 AM 🙃

Some of y’all are okay with this but had a fit when I got denied for an apartment. 🤦🏾‍♂️

.@cspan's #HouseSpeaker vote coverage is getting kudos. FYI: Our non-profit network doesn't get a dime of gov $$. Sadly, we're not avail to all pay TV customers, importantly @YouTubeTV and @hulu. Please help convince them to add C-SPAN to their lineups by liking and retweeting.

Fox News host Brian Kilmeade calls House Freedom Caucus members voting against McCarthy “insurrectionists” without a hint of irony two years after rioters stormed the Capitol to unlawfully stop Biden’s certification https://t.co/TsmQbToN0z

LOL incredible stuff here with @Walllgreens CFO admitting that despite all the relentless noise made about retail theft last year, "we're quite happy with where we are," and literally telling investors "we probably cried too much." https://t.co/cgBVxPmNu4

NYC Uber drivers are ON STRIKE!!! Our strike goes until 11:59 pm tonight. We’re fighting for the raises that Uber stole from us! Please do not cross our virtual picket line! #UberStrike #boycottuber
