So what happened between 3:19pm and 5:08pm on Jan 6th? 4:08pm: Pence makes an urgent call. He told the Sec of Defense to “Clear the Capitol.” At 4:32pm, hours after seige began but minutes after Pence call, the SecDef gave *verbal* authorization to send Nat Guard to Capitol — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

By only stepping in to name Hamas’ actions - which are condemnable - & refusing to acknowledge the rights of Palestinians, Biden reinforces the false idea that Palestinians instigated this cycle of violence. This is not neutral language. It takes a side - the side of occupation. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

Blanket statements like these w/ little context or acknowledgement of what precipitated this cycle of violence - namely, the expulsions of Palestinians and attacks on Al Aqsa - dehumanize Palestinians & imply the US will look the other way at human rights violations. It’s wrong. — PolitiTweet.org

Utterly shameful for Yang to try to show up to an Eid event after sending out a chest-thumping statement of support for a strike killing 9 children, especially after his silence as Al-Aqsa was attacked. But then to try that in Astoria? During Ramadan?! They will let you know. — PolitiTweet.org

From the paramilitary violence in Colombia and Shiekh Jarrah, to the detention of children on our own border and the militarization of US police departments, the United States must seriously assess its role in state violence and condition aid. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

We stand in solidarity with the Palestinian residents of Sheikh Jarrah in East Jerusalem. Israeli forces are forcing families from their homes during Ramadan and inflicting violence. It is inhumane and the US must show leadership in safeguarding the human rights of Palestinians. — PolitiTweet.org

Moral of the story is that the US Chamber of Commerce is a corporate lobbyist group with 0 credibility in helping everyday people. Huge, big-box corporations hire them to lobby Congress into prioritizing profits over people and planet. Ignore them 🙂 — PolitiTweet.org

If you’re interested in learning more about their secretive/bizarre lobbying operation, check out this archived piece from @MotherJones “the Chamber had been routinely inflating its membership numbers by 900 percent” https://t.co/wk3c1cQrKG — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

Fun fact: the US Chamber of Commerce is a secretive business lobby that supported a $3M effort to primary me out of office last year bc I stand up to Wall Street. (They lost 🤗) Wal-mart was outed as a secret client. If UI > wages, the solution is to actually pay a living wage. — PolitiTweet.org
