	Alright, so let's get into some of these takes, okay?
	So... We were waiting... I was thinking about waiting to cover this endorsement until it actually happened, because, you know, AOC hasn't, like, formally endorsed Bernie yet.
	She's going to do it at a rally this Saturday.
	But the campaign is announcing it, it was already leaked to the press, and then the campaign confir- the Bernie Sanders campaign confirmed it.
	But I was like, you know, should we wait to talk about this until like the floodgates are actually open?
	But the floodgates pretty much opened.
	And anyway, we have a comment here that sort of, I think like you said, Tony, just confirms our decision to talk about it today instead of after AOC formally announces.
	Laura Manos Hay says, I love how they need to announce that.
	Let her speak for herself.
	We all know she's more than capable.
	Get it?
	And then Eric replies, Do you know how reporting works?
	And then Laura replies, Um, not the New York Times.
	Bernie's campaign.
	Ooh.
	Got him, kind of.
	She's upset because the New York Times is mansplaining AOC's endorsement to her.
	Mm-hmm.
	AOC's like, uh, listen, I wrote the fucking endorsement, okay?
	Don't need you to explain it to me.
	Yeah.
	The New York Times is like, this is called an endorsement.
	What that means is.
	They're talking to AOC.
	This person is going to go ahead and like co-sign this other person.
	I don't know if you, if you get that.
	That means you have to say you like Bernie Sanders.
	Yeah.
	Um, I like this take because it's like, it's a good way to be mad about the thing without admitting the real reasons you're mad about it.
	Yeah.
	Like, you're not saying you dislike Bernie, you're not saying you dislike AOC, but you are still mad about this endorsement.
	But it's just the way they did it.
	That's the only reason I'm mad.
	Until you, like, look closer at Laura's profile picture, which is her standing next to Elizabeth Warren.
	It's actually a straight up Elizabeth Warren selfie.
	Do you think this is a candidate one or did she wait in line recently for three hours?
	Oh yeah, this is the Harriet Tubman selfie.
	This is the one that's going to go down in history.
	This is the Franklin Douglas selfie.
	Yeah, this is how she's showing she's breaking stereotypes by taking a bunch of selfies.
	Yeah, it's amazing.
	That was the article, right?
	That just like Frederick Douglass, Elizabeth Warren is showing that a woman can be president by taking selfies.
	Will also be photographed.
	Literally comparing a time where this man's blackness was considered some sort of demonic trace along with the bewitchingness of photography.
	But his sheer intelligence and tenacity allowed him to be photographed more than anyone else in history.
	But she's like a white woman in the world of camera phones.
