US Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (Democrat, New York) isnāt fazed by Congressā failure to move forward with the impeachment of Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth.
From her perspective, Democrats have almost too many people to investigate once they gain control of Congress in January.
āThere are so many criminals in this administration, itās hard to figure out who should be, you know, the order of operations,ā Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview with CNNās Manu Raju on Tuesday.
āThere are going to be many, many, many investigations,ā she added. āI imagine many subpoenas, and we have to follow wherever the evidence takes us.ā
You know I hate tankies as much as anyone else, but Iāll honestly say JoMiran is one of the few .ml users who doesnāt seem to be one.
As in, theyāre actually capable of rational thought/discussion and has some decent takes from time to time, which a tankie would be utterly incapable of

Sigh. Anti-NATO and pro-China is not pro-Russia. If anything, we agree with you libs that China and the USA are fighting a proxy war using Russia and Ukraine as condoms.
The US provoked it, Russia started it, then China stepped in and used the opportunity to make Russia completely economically dependent on them.
Russia sucks in so many ways. Ukraine sucks way less because they were the ones who got invaded, and Iām far more on their side, but they have problems too. The people of both countries are being used and thrown away by unaccountable foreign bastards (and domestic bastards in Russiaās case).
Itās just a game to the people at the top. China wants to limit Western advancement on their western flank, and the US/NATO wants to kill Russians and advance their economic influence into countries previously dominated by Russia.
Itās two capitalist markets trying to gain power over each other. We at ml think the solution to this is to bring down capitalism, and the major other communist faction on Lemmy is to do that but bring down the state as well.
Now, does any of this sound like we are pro-Russian to you?
To your final question, yes.
Which part?
Wait what, when did anyone mention swastikas? I must have missed that part of the conversation. What I saw is that they said punks wore mickey mouse shirts. Which is a completely different thing.
Iām not here to defend .ml as an instance, I think itās garbage and most of its users are disingenuous trolls and accelerationist edge lords who would rather see the world burn with no plan to rebuild after rather than contribute in any meaningful or reasonable way to any sort of productive discussion whatsoever.
That being said, Iāve seen JoMiran around on different threads and they donāt act like the usual .ml user. Thereās a couple others too, but theyāre very much the exception rather than the rule over there. Thatās all Iām saying.
And I never listened to the sex pistols, but there are plenty of punk bands who hate nazis, and honestly the punk ethos is diametrically opposed to fascism, so that weird subgenre of nazi punk is not only an oxymoron, but theyāre also just a bunch of posers appropriating the aesthetic and not really punks. They would get chased out of any regular punk venue. Call it gatekeeping if you want but nazis are not punk, even when they try to call themselves that.
