Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) continues to be the member of Congress who best demonstrates the qualities of leadership so badly needed by her party. She will not succeed in impeaching these Supreme Court justices, but she will shine a light on their corruption and lay down a marker for voters.

Every Democrat should learn from her example.

@JamesGleick I used to have a tweet pinned to my feed (when i was on twitter) that was my AOC disappointment canary: it said "if this tweet is still here, AOC hasn't disappointed me, yet."

If I were still on twitter, that tweet would probably still be up.

She will disappoint me because that's how politics and reality work. However, comparing her as a politician to every other politician I've paid any attention to in the past 30 years... there's just no real comparison. If we had 50 AOCs in Congress it would be about half as many as we need.
