Ocasio-Cortez Blasts Politifact, WaPo for Fact Checking

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) on Monday blasted multiple fact-checking media sources for their coverage of her statements, saying, "I say true things all the time."

Ocasio-Cortez, who was sworn into office last Thursday, is evidently not happy about the scrutiny she's received from fact-checkers. In a Twitter thread, she targeted the Washington Post and Politifact, saying "false equivalency [and] bias creeps in" with their fact checks.

She's a lightning rod for MSM and Conservative news outlets. Paying less attention to her would be good, just giving us a list of her dumb and false statements at the end of each month would suffice.

And leave the pictures out; we already know what she looks like and don't need a reminder.

She's playing nice with the press right now. Let them keep this up, and I think you will see her get louder and uglier with her criticisms of them.And then she'll start with the victim bs.

Get used to it. You and your mouth are now under a microscope. There is a saying, it's better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you are stupid, rather than open it and prove it!

I think the news media should give us a DAILY Cortez, Pelosi, Waters update.
It would be the best satire this country had in a long time.

So cavalier - so dumb. How did she ever make it into college. Someone needs to investigate what they teach students.
