Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Fires Back at Sarah Palin
Democratic Congresswoman-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez fired back at former Republican Party nominee for vice president Sarah Palin on Tuesday for spreading a criticism that she fumbled basic civics.
Palin, a former governor of Alaska who had a failed bid in 2008 under GOP presidential nominee John McCain, on Monday tweeted a story from her website governorpalin.org titled, “YIKES: Ocasio-Cortez Fumbles Basic Civics TWICE In 1 Statement.”
The story was embedded with a tweet from The Daily Wire reporter Ryan Saavedra Sunday night mocking Ocasio-Cortez for her comments during a video call.
“If we work our butts off to make sure that we take back all three chambers of Congress—Uh, rather, all three chambers of government: the presidency, the Senate, and the House,” Ocasio-Cortez said in the clip. “We can’t start working in 2020.”
Saavedra commented with a correction: “The 3 branches of government: executive, legislative, judicial.”
The story on Palin’s site also embedded a tweet from Republican Ohio Representative Niraj Antani in which he made fun of her by saying, “What is a chamber of government,” along with a couple of curious-looking emojis.
Ocasio-Cortez replied to Antani: “Maybe instead of Republicans drooling over every minute of footage of me in slow-mo, waiting to chop up word slips that I correct in real-tomd (sic), they actually step up enough to make the argument they want to make: that they don’t believe people deserve a right to healthcare.”
