Ocasio-Cortez Primary Challenger Badrun Khan Comes Out Swinging In First Televised Interview

Badrun Khan, the Democratic activist challenging Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in a primary fight to represent the state’s fourteenth congressional district, spoke to Fox News anchor Martha MacCallum in her first televised interview Thursday evening.

“When she came out, she came out being a very strong person who’s going to be for our congressional district, but right now, what happened with our old congressman, he was Washington and Virginia, she’s Hollywood and Washington,” Khan told MacCallum. “She’s never in the district. She’s not sure what’s happening in the district. She opened her office pretty late after she was elected and her ideas are extremely — socialism is not what most of our 14 congressional districts are looking for.”

Khan took issue with Ocasio-Cortez’s role in nixing a potential deal with Amazon, calling it “not fair for that community.”
