Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
:heavy_check_mark: @AOC

"Usury - aka high interest - happens to be explicitly denounced in the Bible (& in many other religions).

Looking forward to having the religious right uphold their principles + sign onto my bill. :innocent:

Unless of course they’re only invoking religion to punish women + queer people."

Love this woman. Just love her!!

It’ll go nowhere in the Senate, but at least these assholes are on record the next time they try to talk out of both sides of their mouth on this.

I somehow doubt the right wing will take her up on that challenge.

Many of those guys complain about gay people while eating a bacon cheeseburger, wearing a cotton polyester blend t shirt that also shows off all of their tattoos on their arms at a restaurant on a saturday afternoon… even though the same parts of the old testament that talked about gay people also chided them for wearing that shirt, having that ink, eating bacon along with mixing meat and dairy on the old testament sabbath lmao

Yup, religion as a club to beat those who challenge your ideas. Never something to actually try to live by. You know, all that stuff, even in the OT, about “caring for widows and orphans, the stranger in your land and the traveler.” Sounds way too lefty for the Righteous Right.

Painfully true. Of course, those who need to see this would consider it persecution.

Or did they all just get what they wanted from him (the SCOTUS they want to overturn Roe) and now they’ve giving him the “Donald Trump” treatment, i.e. pretending ypu never knew the corrupt sinner you used to get where you are in order to stay out of trouble with the (higher) Authorities…
