Ocasio-Cortez Attacks Senate GOP for Ignoring Bill That Hasn’t Passed House
The Washington Free Beacon ^ | 11 FEB 2019 | Alex Griswold

Posted on 02/12/2019 5:44:05 AM PST by ManHunter

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) attacked Senate Republicans Monday for sitting on a bill that in actuality has not passed the House of Representatives.

Ocasio-Cortez received thousands of retweets for a tweet claiming that the "For the People Act" had passed the House with over two hundred cosponsors. "Now it’s at the Senate," she wrote. "GOP is calling getting money out of politics a ‘power grab.'"

Some people seem to be ignorant of the concept of hyperbole.

"If I've told you once, I've told you a million times, don't exaggerate!"

Hyperbole can be found in the Bible. The last verse of the Gospel according to John is a good example.

I simply adore this woman.

Yup. President Trump is a very lucky man indeed. Ocasio is is one of the best things. that could have happened for his reelection. Every time she opens her mouth, more people switch to the Republican Party. Add in the governor of Virginia plus the deranged US Reps from Somalia and the Palestinian and the attack ads against the Dems will write themselves.

I’m convinced what we’re seeing is a representative who has no “help” from her party. Imagine how many idiots would be saying/tweeting/posting idiotic statements like this if the party wasn’t helping them from making fools of themselves.

Good point, hadn't thought of that. Perhaps Pelosi is deliberately letting her wade into the deep water without a flotation device, seeing how quickly she drowns.

Actually she is very dangerous.
Someone who clearly has control of Obama’s Army, has no regard for law or personal rights is exactly how the Cambodia Killing Fields came to be.

She speaks more than Pelosi does!!!

In a way, I’m glad this is happening so that all can see what an airhead AOC is. Then again, many think she’s a rising star within the Democrat party.

Look up the meaning of “Judas Goat” and then write a check to AOC’s reelection fund.

Now why would Nancy want to help someone who knocked off her good friend in the primary, threatens her Queen Bee status by stealing the spotlight and openly blabs about the Dem dark side forcing Dems to tack further to the left?

“The only thing more amazing than her stupidity is the lack of accountability from the "fact checkers" in the LSM.”

It’s much worse than that—by and large, they simply ignore her gaffes.

How many non-“Free Beacon” readers will even hear about this?
