AOC was a waitress after attending Boston University where she double-majored in international relations and economics.
Fugate (the chose in the picture) attended UT SA until 2024 with no documented majors. no military experience. no counterterrorism training.
he did work as an intern at the Heritage Foundation until his appointment to this current position.
so tell me, why do you feel the need to draw a relationship between Fugate and AOC when they are obviously no where near related?
The things you mentioned are completely relevant and are what people should be citing about this guy. The fact that he used to pull weeds is as irrelevant as the fact that AOC used to wait tables. I don't see what's difficult at all to understand about that, or why people have any issues with this simple truth. It's not like criticizing an improper criticism of the bad guys supports the bad guys, I'm supporting legitimate criticism vs silly pettiness.
