Rep. Ocasio-Cortez Won’t Be Bullied

Biography | Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

This headline from CNN is typical: “Marjorie Taylor Greene confronts Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez outside House chamber.” But that’s not what happened.

What happened was that Representative Ocasio-Cortez wouldn’t let herself be pushed around by a sleazy bully. When the bully persisted, AOC turned around, threw up her hands, and walked away. There was no confrontation, no accosting. She — quite properly — refused to lower herself to the bully’s level. Good for her.

I’ve seen not a single headline, anywhere, that got this bizarre incident right.
