AOC Tries To Use The Bible To Justify Her Tactics, It Falls Flat

WATCH: Christians are tired of being bullied for faith

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has been trying to pick fights with the Christian right. On Friday, she went on a bizarre rant and attempted to establish a really weird moral argument.

To the GOP extremists trying to invoke “the unborn” to jail people for abortion:

Where are you on climate change? OH right, you want to burn fossil fuels til there’s hell on Earth.

If they were truthful about their motives, they’d be consistent in their principles. They’re not.

The GOP doesn’t care about babies at all – especially brown, black, or poor ones. If they did, they’d:
– cosponsor the Green New Deal or at LEAST have a real climate plan
– guarantee healthcare so ALL can get prenatal care
– not stand for the death+caging of babies on our border

If you believe that abortion is murder and acknowledge that climate change hysteria is HYSTERIA, what’s the problem? One has nothing to do with the other.

What angers me about the GOP’s attempts to turn the United States into a far-right Christian theocracy is how dishonest they are about it.

At least be forthright about your desire to subvert and dismantle our democracy into a creepy theological order led by a mad king.

This is really about her disdain for Judeo-Christian values.

Here we go again. She’s– once again– trying to make Christians out to be hypocrites by daring them to abide by their own morals.

Usury – aka high interest – happens to be explicitly denounced in the Bible (& in many other religions).

Looking forward to having the religious right uphold their principles + sign onto my bill. 😇

Unless of course they’re only invoking religion to punish women + queer people. https://t.co/h7FxTaMxKb

Don’t you love when people who have no fundamental understanding of the Bible try to lecture you about it?

Yep! I’m just carrying it in the House and whipping votes there 😉 but if Mitch McConnell wants to actually use religious principles for good + reinstate usury laws, he’s more than welcome.

I know she’s just trying to mock us, but if she really wants us to uphold our moral standards, she better STHU about these pro-life bills, because we will support them endlessly.
