RIOTS FOR THEE, BUT NOT FOR ME:
● Shot: AOC questions if Capitol Police officer tried to put her in a ‘vulnerable situation.’
—Fox News, Tuesday.
● Chaser: Ocasio-Cortez dismisses proposed $1B cut: ‘Defunding police means defunding police.’
—The Hill, June 30th, 2020.
● Hangover: Why is ‘Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Smollett’ trending?
—The London Sun, today.
UPDATE: As Jim Treacher writes, “If a Capitol Police officer really did threaten Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez or any other member of Congress, he needs to be identified. He needs to explain himself. If AOC is telling the truth, he should be fired. If it’s not true… why did she say it? And what should happen to a member of Congress who would lie about such a thing?”
