Ocasio-Cortez Is A Fraud Through And Through

By Daily Wire

On Monday’s episode of “The Michael Knowles Show,” the host discusses Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s attempt to pander to an audience by mimicking a stereotyped accent. Knowles suggests this is yet more evidence that the freshman New York lawmaker is a “fraud.” Transcript and video below.

She says she’s “code-switching.” Which code is she switching to? She’s not code-switching, and she is not reverting back to her authentic accent. She is performing a caricature of what she thinks a Southern black drawl sounds like, and it sounds nearly as fake as when Hillary Clinton did it. And then what does she do? She immediately refers to her allegedly hardscrabble upbringing and her false claim that she grew up in the Bronx. This is a lie. On her campaign website in 2018, she said that her life was defined by the forty-minute commute between her family in the Bronx and school in the suburbs. Not true. In the state of New York, you don’t just get to commute from a bad neighborhood in the Bronx to whatever public school you want to go to upstate.

That’s not how it works. You get districted into your school. If that were the case everybody in a bad school district in the city would just commute up to the suburbs. She did not commute — she lived there. She lived there from the age of five all the way until 2016, according to Westchester land records. According to Westchester County land records, until a year or two before she ran for Congress, from Queens, she lived with her parents not just in Westchester but in a very ritzy part of northern Westchester. That is not her upbringing. It’s not being weaponized against her.

The only thing that is being used as a weapon against her is her obvious lie about where she comes from. Some people have said to me “Michael, stop it. Don’t talk about her obvious fraud and just talk about the craziness of her proposals.” No. This is a bad idea. You have to point out that she is a fraud through and through.
