    AOC just broke into tears on Instagram live and said she’s a survivor of sexual assault, and the Republicans telling her to “just move on” from the attack on the Capitol, in which her life was threatened, are using abusers’ tactics.

        The degree to which the entire Trump presidency was triggering to sexual assault/abuse survivors has been under covered.

        This is so true. I'm a therapist and my whole private practice had a four year long meltdown over this. It's disgusting and I can't believe it gets no media attention.

        Wow. It will be interesting to see if she receives any support from her GOP colleagues in the House. Frankly, I can’t think of many who are not creeps.

        That's awful. She's right about their tactics 100%. They just keep gaslighting and making new threats.

        Having 45 and his abuser friends in the government and the news has caused mental health issues for a lot of people. The r's are in massive denial and make it worse.
