President Joe Biden made waves this week when the White House compelled Trump-appointed members of Military advisory boards to either resign or be fired from what would've been their three year terms.

Among those to get the proverbial pink slip were some of the most infamous in Trump's administration, such as his first White House press secretary Sean Spicer and—of course—former presidential counsellor Kellyanne Conway.


Conway became infamous for her defense of Trump in the late stages of the 2016 primaries and onto the final year of his administration. Her tenure was defined by repeated violations of the Hatch Act and an all-too-familiar willingness to lie on behalf of the former President.

After all, it was she who coined the term "alternative facts."

Conway posted her response to Biden's resignation request on Twitter, fuming against the supposed "break from presidential norms."

She wrote:

"Your decision is disappointing but understandable given the need to distract from a news cycle that has you mired in multiple self-inflicted crises and plummeting poll numbers[.] ... I'm not resigning, but you should."

The letter was criticized across social media, but few retorts resonated more than that of Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the firebrand progressive from New York.

The Congresswoman, colloquially known as "AOC," berated Conway's "fascist victim complex" and alluded to the Republican party's embrace of election fraud conspiracy theories—fantasies which led elected officials to try to throw out certified electoral votes, and which motivated a mob of pro-Trump extremists to storm the United States Capitol in a deadly failed insurrection.

People thought AOC was spot-on.





Others offered their own takes.


It's unclear if Conway's dismissal is in effect.

The 43-second clip, from an over one hour interview, featured the pair laughing about the disparity between the prosecution of the violent insurrectionists who stormed the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021, versus Jeffrey Epstein's friends and clients who trafficked and sexually exploited young women and children.

C-SPAN Issues Clarification After Video Goes Viral Of Man Who Sounds Like Trump Calling Into C-SPAN Under Fake Name

C-SPAN issued a clarification after a caller identifying himself as “John Barron” — a pseudonym long associated with Donald Trump — phoned into its program Washington Journal, leading some viewers to suspect the president had personally joined the broadcast.

The caller, identified as "John Barron" and described as a Republican from Virginia, drew attention for a voice that closely resembled that of Trump as he criticized what he called the Supreme Court’s “worst decision” against his emergency tariffs. The name itself raised eyebrows, since "John Barron" was a pseudonym Trump frequently used in the 1980s when speaking to reporters while posing as his own spokesman.

MAGA Senator Compared ICE Agents To Mexican Cartel Hitmen In Accidentally Accurate X Post—And He Just Deleted It

Utah MAGA Republican Senator Mike Lee deleted a post he made on X about Mexican drug cartel hitmen being like Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. But it wasn't because of the racist xenophobia and Democrat bashing his post was trying to promote.

Lee deleted his latest social media blunder because too many people pointed out his comparison of cartel hitmen to MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's ICE wasn't the gotcha to "leftists" that he intended.
