Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez was harassed by a heckler as she walked up the Capitol steps.
The problem: Miranda Devine’s column on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s response to a heckler.
Thanks to Miranda Devine for a factual column relating to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (“Only one NYer AOC fights for: herself,” July 18).
Because the day she was elected, her one precedence continues to be each day media consideration. Her social-media antics are a humiliation. She lives by the philosophy: “Do as I say, not as I do.”
The true query is: What has she completed for her constituents? The reply is: completely nothing.
With this being mentioned, why would the district’s voters proceed to assist this baby in grownup clothes?

Devine’s piece was the right description of the narcissistic, self-aggrandizing baby that AOC is.
Her hyperbolic response to the obnoxious feedback of Alex Stein was typical of how thin-skinned she is. Her tirade in opposition to the Capitol police afterward was absurd.
AOC is a superb instance of favor over substance. She fancies herself as this nationwide chief, however when was the final time she sponsored any form of vital laws?
Her district is ravaged by crime, however when was the final time she walked the streets of her district and spoke to her constituents? She’s too essential for that.
In any case, she’s a nationwide determine, and so they’re simply widespread of us. The very fact is that AOC represents all the things unsuitable with our legislators. She’s a phony and a shame. Interval.

The place is AOC now with all this crime in her beloved metropolis?
She has nothing to say in regards to the migrant deaths on the border? No tears to shed?
She is the worst form of politician — one who's extra taken with preventing for her personal agenda than for the wants of her constituents.
But the media retains giving her consideration, and the sheep maintain voting for her. What has she performed?

Whereas I admit that what alleged “comic” Alex Stein mentioned was impolite and crude, it wasn’t almost as dangerous as having somebody come to your home to homicide you, as somebody allegedly did to Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
With AOC’s magnificence, charisma and following, she might actually result in change to this nation. However alas, she’s solely taken with herself and her social-media clicks.
Hopefully, after the midterm elections, she will likely be simply an afterthought and a ache within the butt to the Republican in cost.

The problem: Transgender swimmer Lia Thomas being nominated for the NCAA’s Girl of the Yr Award.
Simply once I thought our nation couldn’t get any extra silly, loopy and mindless, we at the moment are nominating individuals for awards they don’t deserve (“Gal of the Yr?” July 18).
Lia Thomas is a particularly gifted swimmer however shouldn't be competing with females.

Ought to transgender athletes be allowed to compete in sports activities? It’s a tough topic, to make certain.
Nearly all of such circumstances are usually male-at-birth athletes now competing as females. There's a lot that may be performed to stability the taking part in subject by way of testosterone ranges, however there isn't any denying that a male-born athlete has the next middle of gravity, typically has the next bone density and the next most energy output, and these attributes create an imbalance in lots of types of bodily competitors.
For the integrity of the sports activities and the accompanying accolades granted, transgender athletes have to compete individually.
