Socialist Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is in news yet again for yet another boneheaded statement.
And this time the first Green Beret in Congress is shutting her down.
Claiming the Jan. 6 Capitol riot was “extraordinarily traumatic” for her, Ocasio-Cortez claimed the event means she “effectively served in war” and needed the same mental health support services as combat veterans.
Claiming she “served in war” is somehow not the stupidest thing she’s said this year, but it drew a quick reaction from Congressman Mike Waltz (R-FL.)
Waltz is a combat veteran and the first Green Beret elected to Congress.
“January 6 was a terrible day for sure and those involved will be brought to justice but this is a sad and ignorant comparison to make…and a disservice to those who actually served,” Waltz posted to Twitter.

“AOC doesn’t know what it’s like to come under attack by machine-gun fire, mortars or RPGs,” Waltz continued.
“She hasn’t seen the horror of roadside IED explosions on bystanders & children. She hasn’t lost fellow soldiers on the battlefield or seen friends permanently disfigured by Taliban attacks,” he tweeted.
“Don’t use false equivalencies to make a point. Especially as it relates to war,” Waltz ended.
It’s not the first Ocasio-Cortez claimed to be “traumatized.” In a heavily-mocked 2019 Instagram video, she claimed her luxury apartment’s garbage disposal “scared the daylights out of me” and asked followers to explain the device, which utterly confused her.

Maybe she was on the plane with Hillary, when our brave First Lady was subjected to Sniper Fire! Here’s a good Hillary Joke. Bill and Hillary were attending a baseball game. As the opening ceremony time neared, a secret service agent approached the president, whispering a message to him. The president looked at the agent with a confused expression, and the agent again repeated the message. Clinton shrugged his shoulders, grabbed Hillary, and threw her onto the infield. The surprised agent quickly rushed to Mrs. Clinton’s side, picked her up off the grass, and glared at the president, yelling “SIR, I SAID THROW OUT THE FIRST P-I-T-C-H!!!!”
LOL!!! A good one!!!
The only time she ever wore a uniform was guesting at a bachelor party
Maybe she equates Bar Fights with combat theaters.
The Bubba Joke is funny.
Q. What was a worse disaster, The Clinton Presidency or the Titanic Sinking?
A. The Clinton Presidency. Only 200 women went down on the Titanic.
According to her friends, AOC actually had an orgasm during the Jan. 6 riot on the Capital.
0
And then she realized that the capitol invasion was only globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep wearing MAGA hats and MAGA shirts .
Now that is FUNNY!!!
The sad thing is that she’ll be in office forever if she stays in NY. Unfortunately, the dummies out number the normal people as evidenced by her, deblasio, schumer, nadler, cuomo, and a few other imbeciles that keep getting reelected, no matter how stupid or evil they are.
Retroactive Term Limits and statutes preventing nepotism would end these regimes. Once a congressional representative learns the ropes about how to hoodwink folks within their districts, they become a liability.
Your reference to them was much to kind .
Maybe they cheat
almost all of them are CATHOLIC TRAITORS. All CATHOLICS are TRAITORS.
That is just not cool. I have family who are catholics and are Republican. That’s a very broad and unfair claim.
That’s what alfie does, give UNEDUCATED comments about Catholic’s!!! I’m a disabled veteran and Catholic!!! This is an IDIOT!!!
Asswipe
You show your ignorance.
They sacrifice their altar boy sons to altar boy raping priests and sacrifice their daughters to globalist puppet, chester the molester biden .
How about treason? Soros put those 4 #### in just to undermine everything America stands for! And we know that all the voting was crooked. She is a massive liar and drama queen
Soros is a Globalist, and there are many congressional representatives who subscribe to that ideology. Basically, their doctrine calls for dissolving borders, while subordinating the people of those former countries to international ruling bodies. Odumbo demonstrated his acceptance of this scheme with the TPP, but there are additional steps recommended to implement their plan, including the disarming of populations, and reducing the world population substantially. I’m afraid we’ve lost our ‘Free Press’, since they’re daily parroting the salient narrative of these Globalist potentates. (Does it not seem strange that ALL forms of communication/media are now under the control of a few very rich CEOs?) For nations to survive, they must contain their people, leaders, laws, cultures, resources and defensive forces within established borders. As we’re learning now, the latter are increasingly being dissolved.
I actually believe they rig the election all the time. Do you actually believe the people of Chicago haven’t ever gotten tired of Democrats, the last 90 years.
Quick… name a Dem/leftist who ISN’T a victim. Anyone ??
We’re all victims of some scam, violence, malfeasance, corruption or the onset of diseases, but those crimes and travails were not motivated by “Hate”. That worn out canard has carried certain people into public office, media dominance, ostentatious wealth and a permanent status as ‘victims’.
Meghan Markle and her ginger sidekick!!! Oh no, they are the biggest victims going. Both throw their families under buses telling pure evil lies.
globalists rely on the globalist puppet, royal family opium drug trade to keep globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep addicted and stupid and refuse to leave the globalist puppet, democrat criminal party plantation. and I hurt another libby snow flake sheep, moderator little feelings and he will run home to his mommy .
She’s making more noise to be in front of the camera. She’s running for Nancy’s job…..she’s just as stupid so she’s got that going for her.
She’s so stupid that she thinks mobey dick is a venerable disease
Sadly, AOC thought Israel was a person, instead of a nation. For real. Thirty years in New York and she couldn’t figure that out.
OAC is CATHOLIC. Have you ever heard of a CATHOLIC nation that does not have corruption? Have you ever heard of a CATHOLIC nation that does not have failure? Have you ever heard of a CATHOLIC nation that does have success???? AOC says it all with her lies. Vote for ANY CATHOLIC and you vote for a traitor and a thousand years of exactly 100% failure.
Ireland, for one.
Let’s face it! As a bartender you have to learn how to lie at the drop of a hat. And AOC has learned her lesson well! In addition to being perhaps the stupidest Democrat in Congress, she is also one of the very best liars – running a dead heat with Nancy Pelosi in that regard. Americans – when oh when are we going to be rid of this Congressional trash?
Only globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep would consider globalist puppet aoc good at anything .
AOC deserves a firing squad… And I would like to volunteer my services.
AOC, how is she still able to even speak or sit in a chair that is clearly meant for an intelligent person.
And, what is wrong with those that voted for this #NUTCASE?
Hello well didn’t we have report’s that she wasn’t even in washington on jan.jan. 6th i think it’s time for someone to challenge her for her seat in congress let her go back bar-tending in new york and see what being in a war is like she’s got a go loudmouth
I agree. I definitely believe AOC needs ALL the mental help she can get right now, but NOT because of January 6, 2021. She needs to be tested rigorously to see IF there is any brain activity going on at all in that empty head.
She’s an ideologue, but she’s very wet behind the ears. AOC is riding the feminist hubris, which somehow lofts these crusaders for equality above and beyond the quagmire of human advancement based upon merit and effort, bestowing upon these sainted martyrs some ‘special’ qualities and a designated status as a government protected/advantaged segment of our population. Though that’s not the function of our government, as long as Americans put up with this activity, people like AOC will ride high in their chairs spouting such nonsense.
This idiot of a person WAS NOT IN THE CAPITAL THAT DAY, SHE WAS ACROSS THE STREET, she like her bosses don’t have the ability to tell the truth!!! WHAT AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE THESE PEOPLE ARE!!! Send aoc to hamas with her “squad” WITH ANY HOPE, A ROCKET WILL TAKE THEM ALL!!! And isn’t great the way biden/harris addressed MEMORIAL DAY? biden said NOTHING, and harris says it’s a long weekend!!! And harris meets with blm TERRORISTS and a rapper, but still does NOTHING about their border CATASTROPHE
THIS ISN’T AMERICA right now, but it will be again!!! Mountains of fraud are coming, even with msm taking their side, THEY WILL ALL LOSE.
god is too busy blessing globalists and globalist puppet democrat criminal party and globalist puppet rino criminal party and globalist media and altar boy raping priests .
Absolutely Obtuse Cortez (AOC) has been woke as Anus Orifice Cortez!
I hope someone finally gets to you. Once you experience real threat, then you can move your lips and mouth off.
She needed to watch the PBS Memorial Day specials to see an example of what our men went thru. Unfortunately it’s idiots like her who know nothing that will try to lead our country.
AOC=MORON PLAIN AND SIMPLE. GET HER OUT OF OFFICE SHE IS DESTROYING OUR COUNTRY!
That is the only reason globalist voter fraud appointed globalist puppet aoc and all globalist puppets .
D head globalist moderators !
Sure, AOC was involved in a deadly altercation with a renegade powder puff.
We could send her in real harms way to educate her.
That will be the litmus test for the Female Draft. Since it appears Numb Nuts is going to finagle a war, our now-demoralized troops will need replacements. Depending on where that dumbbell orchestrates his bellicose legacy, America will need to resume the Draft, and women will be required to register. Once those yellow notices start to appear in their mail (Is that term still legal?) boxes, suddenly, we’ll witness first hand how Pregnancy Rates will skyrocket among those draft age females.
Utterly incapable of telling the truth. The worst part is that ANYONE listens to her.
Only globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep are stupid enough to listen to her and believe her, like the libby snow flake sheep moderators .
AOC, got bad news for you! Democratically supported and funded and instigated rioters (BLM and Antifa) caused the “attack” Capitol Police opened the door and even escorted them to where they wanted to go! Pelosi, McConnel, Pence and others plotted this. Military have all teh evidence on film
AOC should be president someday. She would help the nations come together under one leadership. Wouldn’t that be wonderful. No more racial inequality. No more shootings. We would be totally free. Nobody would be hungry or lack medical care again. No borders. One language. And people of color would take their places to help rule.
dreamy the globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep says; “baa, baa, baa”.
Always the bar maid, making up stories to entertain the unaware!
These socialist people know no bounds of reason. Pompous and spurious claims are the basis of their bombastic rhetoric. I thought that the words of a Professor that was interviewed by Tucker C. were the most salient of any I have ever heard. In referring to Rene Descartes “I think therefore I am” he said, That we suffer from the Democratic socialists ” epistemology of I think therefore I am RIGHT”!!! That sums up the reasoning of AOC, Hillary, B.Sanders and many others.
How do you get mental treatment when she doesn’t have brain. Like trying to start a car with no engine installed. GOD BELSS AMERICA and ALL that SERVED! Thank You for your Service!
god bless AMERICA the same way he is blessing globalists and democrat criminal party and rino criminal party and globalist media and libby snow flake sheep AND altar boy raping priests .
Hey! If she is that stupid, she is too stupid to be in Congress. Heck, she’s too stupid even to know how to mix a drink.
Unfortunately breathing is a natural act or libby snow flake sheep would be too stupid to breathe .
She does need mental health therapy, that’s for sure. But, she has no brain that could benefit from therapy. Great entertainment though!
But it’s OK that MTG compares every inconvenience to her the same as being a Holocaust survivor? Hyperbole for sure but she is trying to point out that being targeted by domestic terrorists has left her with some PTSD to deal with.
It would be Wonderful for ALL CONCERNED if AOC went back to serving Drinks!
she keeps libby snow flake sheep drunk and stupid enough .
I believe it was 100X worse for those innocent people who had to put up with the riots and looting that went on for months and months. Someone needs to drop AOC out in the woods 5-6 miles out, she would die out there.
Hey China president Xi Jinping
Hey Russian President Vladimir Putin
Are you guys paying attention to what’s going on over here in Amerika??
Are you paying attention to the kinds of azz
holes that stupid, indoctrinated WOKE Americans are electing like AOC, ilhan, rashida and we can’t forget the traditional ones like pelosi, Schumer, nadler and the entire cast of goofs?
Hope you guys are watching!!!
There are more intelligent Americans that there are stupid libby snow flake sheep and globalist puppets rely on globalist voter fraud to appoint/reappoint them .
AOC will go down in infamy for her famous war stories. She will be known as the greatest embarrassment Congress produced on Jan 6th. It was a tie between her and ol’ nan and her infamous behavior but AOC wins since she can’t shut up about her “near death” experience on that date. Ol’ nan is runner up.
Green Beret or what ever, that little protest wasn’t anything and punishing people for what you bone head. Why don’t you talk about the real riots, you know those “peaceful protests” of blm/antifa. I mean talk about destruction, violence, deaths, yet you have the gull to sat that people in that peaceful protest should be brought to justice, “January 6 was a terrible day for sure and those involved will be brought to justice” and calling it a terrible day. You sell out easy don’t you. Your just another bought and paid for idiot that is putting on this “dog and pony” show. The only person that died was a lady that was in the Air Force and she was shot by a chicken s..t cop who shoukd not have shot. Now when a cop shoots a black that is giving reasons to be shot vs. this incident, and you lying about this incident well I really wouldn’t want you on my side cause you shoot me in the back, as I see it.
According to her friends, AOC actually had an orgasm during the Jan. 6 riot on the Capital.
aoc should be sent to China with the rest of the squat no refund no return they are so full of shit!
But false equivalencies is all AOC has. I’m sure her mind is like a war zone.
One thing she said that I’ll agree with, she definitely needs mental health treatment. I can’t believe an entire Congressional District that keeps electing her, isn’t suffering from the same mental health issues as AOC.
She is looking for support to get her the medal of honor.
She is such a idiot and we need term limits
