Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez snapped back at left-wing accusations of hypocrisy for co-hosting a high school military recruitment event after fighting to ban similar efforts on steaming platforms.
for high schoolers in the Bronx to"learn about the resources available to students" through the district office and connect them with service academies, according to a flyer for the event.
"Politics is so crazy because people can just wake up and make up whatever they want to say about you," Ocasio-Cortez said on her Instagram account Monday evening."Today, someone made up a rumor that I, me, was hosting a military recruitment fair for high schoolers. Does that sound like something I would do? No… But Somebody started a rumor that that’s what was going on. Everyone just believed it and accepted it.
"We have a responsibility to inform people of that process and there were a couple of people there to talk about that," Ocasio-Cortez said trying to set the record straight regarding the military guests involvement at the event."And even that was such a small fraction of the tables and what was there."
She went on to say that large accounts,"especially for activists and left leaning spaces, are going to get it wrong. And if they just pretend that they never get it wrong, how are they any different from other positions of power and how people operate when they get that."
