Dem Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez posted an Instagram story of her walking to get a manicure.
In the story, she said she was doing it as “an act of resistance” against the recent Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v Wade.
“Hello everybody. Happy Friday and I say happy because joy too can be an act of resistance. Um I want to talk about personal acts of reclamation because sometimes people will say there’s nothing I can do. I can’t do. I feel so powerless and there is no act too small that you can engage in and even today, I have a personal errand. I need to redo my nails and I’ve decided that I’m going to use my new manicure as almost like a personal act of reclamation for me and my story.

She also said she wore red lipstick on the campaign trail because her family was socially conservative and they didn’t like that.

She was called out on Twitter:
Tragically, this is not an unfair characterization of what AOC said in the clip https://t.co/DoBPkzdQkQ

The people of her district can't afford food or gas, but she's gonna have nice nails, so there's that. #Moron https://t.co/7xMhRTorDt

A case study in how Liberals can justify absolutely anything!
