AOC spins a tale
The incredibly stupid congresswoman from New York spun us a little tale the other day. It seems that she was in the mood to embellish a bit on the riot on the Capitol last month. She posted a video in which she described a confrontation with Capitol Police at her office, which is located on the larger Capitol complex but not in the Capitol itself.
Did anyone notice the false non-existent tears?
Does she think she is talking to children?
Then there is this piece of work:
Please note when the video gets close to 49 seconds her impression of the police officer who came to help her - if any of it can be believed.
"On Wednesday, she faced a wave of backlash. Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., also blasted media coverage, tweeting that insurrectionists never stormed the hallway that she shares with Ocasio-Cortez. The hashtag #AlexandriaOcasioSmollet trended, an apparent comparison to actor Jussie Smollett, who falsely claimed to be the victim of a hate crime."

What we have here is a narcissist of epic proportions. Someone who loves herself and being the focus of attention. Someone who loves the camera. If you look closely you can see she is composing that silly story as she went along. Does she really think that intelligent people buy any of that nonsense?
The most feeble mind would have difficulty sitting through it, but a radical leftist probably would find her charismatic or as some members here have described her - "cute."
I still find it amazing that this ignoramus graduated from BU, but then again - I am always noting how many ignorant people hold degrees.

She wasn’t even in the Capitol building during her sensationalized ‘near death experience.’
Nope. In fact both her and Katie Porter, her mommy figure during the "ordeal", have offices alright. A few blocks away from the actual capitol building. And they are connected via an underground tunnel that they, and aides, use to shuttle mail and other correspondence as well as access to the capitol.
Who can forget more fake tears at that setup section of fencing that supposedly separated immigrant child from their parents,
and that they were forced to drink water from the toilet.?
She is mental midget childish idiot drama queen trapped in a women's body.
Time for her grow up.
It's the kind of self-created drama one normally sees in say, a 9 year-old.
I couldn't agree more.
What a bunch of unmitigated drama queen horse manure from AOC!
Correct. She was in the Cannon Building in her 2nd floor private office and bathroom.
Unlike AOC, maps created by an Architect of the Capitol don't lie.
Good one!
AOC is 31 years old, one of the youngest people in Congress, and grew into adulthood in an era when making videos featuring yourself became a thing to do. I don't particularly like that she makes videos to explain her inner feelings and all that, I dont think it is an appropriate activity for a national political leader, which she is on the way to becoming, but on the whole it is more understandable because she grew up thinking this is somewhat normal. I think as time goes by and she gets a little older her "self-absorption" will fall away.
As to the accuracy of her statements, let whatever proof is available be revealed and people can make up their own minds whether she is exaggerating anything.
Don't recall you seeding any articles about the thousands of times Trump exaggerated. Not to mention the current fool in chief MTG.
Gee I don't recall Mr. Trump ever being "threatened" in person other than once rushed on a stage. You and several others would have called him a pussy or a drama queen as he has SS to protect him. This is in true Smollett form.
So, you're talking 'bout Biden who hid in his basement during the entire campaign for Presidency? That . . . . . . . ?????
To the best of my knowledge, Biden hasn't left the WH/Oval Office except for that one trip to Walter Reed since Jan. 20.
I'm shocked. She talks like a ten year old.
and grew up in an era when making videos featuring yourself became a thing to do.
You mean we have a generation of narcissist liars? No wonder Stacey Abrams is out trying to get them ballots!

You are really going to claim you don't know whether it's true or false? She's already been called out.
Btw you might want to address comments to me by using the reply button.
I havent looked into this in any detail. I will see what both sides have to say and not base my opinion of it on right wing media. If it turns out she was notably inaccurate in her account then she should be made to take responsibility for any false statements she made. Maybe Pelosi will remove her from all her committees. Will that satisfy you?
And you think anyone in the media or her comrades are going to call her on it?
LMAO
So you admit there are actually two sides involved here?
I'm only going by what is in this article, which is an accusation that AOC exaggerated her "ordeal" on the 6th of January. I expect I will see the other side of the story when I read something else other than this seed.
You may post a support piece but the fact remains. She was NOT in the Capitol Building when the shit hit the fan. And even Katie Porter knows it as AOC was in HER office clutching.
This is a NY Post article on the topic.
NY Post is one step above misinformation these days. The two consrvative media figures cited as leading the charge disputing AOC are far right conspiracy monger Jack Posobiec and Fox News dissembler Tucker Carlson, neither of which is a beacon of objective reporting.
I will await further light to be shed on this "crisis".
Remove somebody from a committee for telling a lie? I guess we would have to start with Adam Schiff.
When a member of congress does something like this there is a mechanism for dealing with it. Remember what Republicans dis with Joe McCarthy?
"Republican Senators Ralph Flanders of Vermont, Arthur Watkins of Utah, and Margaret Chase Smith of Maine led the efforts to discipline McCarthy. Flanders introduced two separate resolutions against McCarthy, one removing McCarthy from his chairmanships and the other calling for his censure."
To the contrary, the New York Post has become the feared source of truth for those on the left. Thus the need to suppress an accurate news story during the election!

Despite your gaslighting, you may have noted that it was Rep. Nancy Mace whom I cited for having the guts to call out little miss space shot.
I will await further light to be shed on this "crisis".
As well as waiting on her charge of attempted murder by Sen Cruz and her claim that the world will end in 12 years.
LOL. You consider Jack Posobiec, ( John Michael Posobiec III ( / p ə ˈ s oʊ b ɪ k / pə-SOH-bik ; born December 14, 1985) [1] is an American alt-right [2] [3] [4] political activist, conspiracy theorist [5] and Internet troll . [6] [7] [8] [9] ) who is evidently leading the charge on exposing this "scandal" , to be a "source for truth" ? Evidently the NY Post does.
He isn't part of the conversation, nor is Tucker Carlson, whom you linked with Posobiec. One has nothing to do with the other and neither have anything to do with my article.
The NY Post article specifically names Posobiec and Carlson as two people spreading this story about AOC.
That's fine. I'm only concerned with the direct calling out by a fellow representative. I'm not interested in dredging up anyone who gave an opinion so that you can assess their credibility. I have someone who is a representative and knows where AOC's office was and was there on January 6th!
so what?
If the Capitol Police come out and say there were zero intruders in AOC's area I will of course take that as strong evidence she is wrong.
One other congressperson may not have all the facts.
I'm glad to hear that you would trust the Capitol Police. Evidently Ms Ocasio-Cortez does not.
As well as Eric Swalwell.
Wait a minute - "Notably inaccurate"?????? Oh shyte - another non-existent goal post to be moved by the minute, eh????
Sorry...
To quote you...
I don't read your links.
Not to mention Jerry Nadler!
These men were very young, too, John, and achieved high elected positions decades before the Internet: JFK (US House at age 30, US Senate at age 36) and Joe Biden (New Castle City Council at age 28, US Senate at age 36).
Q: What does "making videos featuring yourself" have to do with her LYING about where she really was?
A: Nothing.
Your point?
One more thing: maps of the US Capitol Bldg vs. where AOC was in the Cannon Bldg prove that she LIED.
Another thing, John ... I took the time to look at maps. See comment 1.4 .
She’s obviously a drama queen who needs to make herself the center of attention. Remember the production she staged at the border where she brought cameras to stage a breakdown while looking at an open road behind a fence?
Oh yes.
It was just a section of fencing, open at both ends.
Set up and staged for the young and ignorant congress woman.
Was that her visit when she falsely claimed that illegals were forced to drink water out of dirty toilet bowls? She lied then, too, by saying she didn't know that the fountain/sink at the top was potable water and not connected to the toilet even though she was TOLD that the water lines were separate.
I think any of them might have had some legitimate reason for concern at the time, whether they were right there or a block away. This does come off, though, as someone who has let their imagination inflate the drama of things. I feel like I'm watching a 3rd grader.
Does she really go on like that for an hour and a half? Amazing.
Misnomer. Again, another misnomer.
I find this funny
