The liberal media has given Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez a free pass for years.
Ocasio-Cortez was finally held to account.
And Megyn Kelly exposed the sick way AOC just got away with murder.
AOC’s ‘Woke 1’ Gaffe
AOC set off a firestorm when, in an interview with ABC, she sloughed off Democrat Socialist Francesa Hong, who was running for Governor of Wisconsin, calling for a ban on Thanksgiving because it represented racism and colonialism as an unrefined version of wokeism.
“Woke 1 was crazy,” Ocasio-Cortez quipped.
“During this time, and especially during Covid, there was a huge opening of the Overton window… and I think the doors were really opened in trying to entertain any and every policy that was going to get us to a better place,” Ocasio-Cortez went on to say. “And I actually think the discussions that were had in that time were quite fruitful.”
Megyn Kelly was horrified by what she saw.
ABC’s Jonathan Karl laughed along with Ocasio-Cortez as she waved away “Woke 1” as harmless excesses without pressing Ocasio-Cortez on how Democrats would avoid a “Woke 2” or if she understood why voters turned against her party over woke ideology.
“The performance of Jonathan Karl of ABC News across from her when she tried that was abysmal. He embarrassed himself; he embarrassed the profession of journalism,” Kelly declared. “He was looking at her with his cow eyes like ‘Ha ha ha, right, yeah?’ It was just embarrassing, and let her get away with murder.”
Kelly Says AOC ‘Literally Got Away with Murder’
Kelly explained that as the ringleader of the defund the police movement during the summer of 2020, the period Ocasio-Cortez described as “Woke 1,” which led to Americans losing their lives – something Kelly maintained Ocasio-Cortez bore responsibility for.
“I mean, literally get away with murder. And didn’t even seem embarrassed about it, because that’s his team,” Kelly told her audience.
“She is the reason we have ‘woke,’ and there is no ‘woke 1.0’ or 2.0,” Kelly remarked. “There is only one woke, and it’s still here, and it’s disgusting. It’s like this toxic film that’s all over us, this cancer that’s still in some of our cells that we need a little chemo to excise.”
Kelly argued that the 2,500 black Americans killed by gun violence in America’s cities since 2020 were at the feet of AOC; she supported defunding the police and crippling law enforcement.
“That’s squarely on AOC,” Kelly contended. “I blame her. She’s not the only one, but she bears a lot of the blame and was pushing to defund police.”
