With only this screenshot, i do not see her saying that. I think context is missing which is my whole initial point ๐คทโโ๏ธ you may be right, idk, but what you've posted doesnt say this.
Anyway, better things to do with my day
The context of AOC voting against other progressives? The rest is simply just a screenshot.
The screenshot is correcting your confusion but you're ignoring it. The screenshot is of the bill, not the amendment. She's showing you proof she voted no against the greater bill. Pretending the amendment is the bill is disingenuous.
AOC is disingenuously showing an entirely different vote than the one in question.
The vote in question was for an amendment and was a meaningless one that was never going to pass and get added to the bill.
The vote she showed is the bill that actually funded Israel and she voted against it. You are disingenuously claiming that a meaningless vote on a doomed amendment for a bill she wasn't going to vote in favor of is the same thing as voting in favor of the bill.
She disagreed with other people about ingredients for a meal she refuses to eat and you're pretending the ingredients argument disagreement was the same as eating the meal.
