Ocasio-Cortez made the remark on Twitter while commenting on a retweet of a photo captioned “Today we are all @AOC.” The photo shows Ocasio-Cortez glaring at the back of Manchin’s head as he stood and clapped while former President Donald Trump delivered his 2019 State of the Union address. “Just thinking about how after this photo ran Wall Street Journal columnists spent more time criticizing me for not smiling enough than asking Manchin precisely what areas of ‘common ground’ he had in mind when he stood up for the GOP,” tweeted Ocasio-Cortez....

This is most obvious at the end of the latest Greyhill Incident trailer, where the player character hears strange sounds from their radio that mimics similar noises from Signs, and with the character Bob “The Lunatic” Baker, who wears a tinfoil hat much like Joaquin Phoenix’s character in the film....
