Your missing the essential quote to that:

https://twitter.com/ParkerMolloy/status/1082351618119659521

She specifically apologizes and says she was wrong. Washington Post's Fact Check guy chose to openly leave that out to make it seem like she was saying something else.

I'm talking specifically about her response to AC where she basically says being wrong doesn't matter because the ends justify the means and Trump does it too.

I'm gonna disagree. She's specifically saying that the facts may not be immediately present at the time, and that she is fully willing to admit when called out on it, leaving out her last sentence makes it appear like justifying Trump's alternate facts, but she openly says that when called out she'd apologize.

It completely changes the tone of what she said.

psydude posted:

e: It's only after AC calls her out on that that she backtracks.

Its the same sentence. When did he call her out on it?

Let's also be honest: AC Anderson openly was shocked when AOC called Trump a racist. why?

She wildly misrepresented some numbers regarding the Pentagon's accounting and got dinged for it. But that isn't really the issue.

But is she really wrong? You mean the same Pentagon that basically under an immense audit for squandering funds? Like $21 Trillion in funds?

I like that expecting the Democratic party and its elected candidates to walk the walk with respect to not doing the same bullshit as Republicans somehow makes me a centrist.

Misquoting someone to make it look worse, and then being more stringent on that person than you have been on the sitting US President and his Press Secretary is the issue.

CNN has openly been more stringent on AOC that it has on the entire Administration. And she's only been in Congress a couple weeks

Relying on bullshit facts is different from rolling over due to decorum. You can't call your opponents out when they're full of poo poo if you're full of poo poo yourself.

The fact checker calling her out specifically said he didn't include the quote because he ran out of Twitter space.

People openly demonstrated he lied. So why did he leave the quote out unless he had a motive to reframe her claims.

THATS the issue.

The biggest concern I have about this is the natsec angle. You could use my phone to track my comings and goings, and it doesn't even have to be a smartphone, a 20 dollar AT&T burner can be tracked just as easily, and I'm sure you can track OnStar just the same, as it has a cell modem built into it. You can establish a most likely route for my daily travel and my routine of being in and out of the house (the data request includes the home address of the account!) and then plan an intercept of me or my family for whatever nefarious poo poo you were planning to do, like pressure someone into becoming an insider threat.

I could give a poo poo about a bounty hunter tracking someone who is skipping bail, but the fact that the data is being sold to anyone means that for ~300 bucks you can track someone who knows state secrets and then gently caress with them or abduct them.

I guarantee this data is being sold to foreign Intel agencies.

Do not “both sides” this poo poo. Congress had a clean CR for Trump and he rejected it. Not being complicit in his follow-on tantrum does not make the Democrats part responsible for the mess. The republicans are free to run another vote and override a veto if necessary.

This. Also: Trump has both Congress and the Senate, he could've passed this at any time, suddenly he loses the house and its a 'Emergency'

This mess belongs to Trump and the GOP.

McConnell supported a clean funding bill with the understanding that Trump was on board, but then Trump said no and made him look like a bigly idiot. And the only thing Mitch McConnell hates more than having a conscious is looking like an idiot, so now he's cowering in the corner while the portion of his caucus that's up for reelection in 2020 is silently freaking out.
