Constituent Kristin Fellows, 62, asked the Democrats how they are pushing back against Musk and President Donald Trump.
“We know that you are against these current awful happenings going on in the world, but it is simply not enough for you to repeatedly tell us that you are,” Fellows said, according to the Associated Press, and the question was met with a round of applause from the audience.
“My job is to be more than just an activist. It is to answer the call when there’s an immigration raid and we need to figure out where our people are,” Slotkin said. “All of those things require me to be more than just an AOC.”
These “moderate” Dems sound like they belong on Fox News. She just couldn’t resist taking a shot at a progressive to try to score political points with the fascists.
The thing is, they just see her as a pandering weakling who’s too much of a coward to pick a side. And they’re right.
Learned helplessness from the controlled opposition. It’s like listening to a member of the Washington Generals explain how next time, they’ll beat those Globetrotters.
How incredibly inhumane. Immigrants built this country. If anyone here isn’t the descendant of an immigrant; they are an either an descendant of a native American to survived the genocide, or of a chattel slave who survived the anti-black violence that’s been prevalent in this country for over a hundred years.
If the ideal version of America is supposed to be freedom and democracy where anyone looking to make a better life for themselves is welcome, then anti-immigrant sentiment is anti-american.
Slotkin ought to know where “our people” are since she voted for legislation requiring any immigrant who’s baselessly charged with petty nonsense like shoplifting to be detained (archived).
How patronizing, coming from a do-nothing time-serving coward.

It makes me want to sing “Which Side Are You On” just hearing her blithering bullshit.
Fuck these people.
I used to be a Moderate. But then the Right blew up the Overton Window and went full Fascist.
I didn’t move along with them. I stayed fucking put. But now, relative to them, I am a Radical.
And I’m ok with that.
We shouldn’t be forced to move right.
They work so hard to be uninspiring. Right now it would take so little. Just, anything. But instead they chide us for expecting anything…
Edit: worst typo ever

I think you mean descendant.
Yes! That’s the right word. Fixed, thanks
I’m sure she still has friends at the CIA who can find them for her.
