Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Falsely Claims to be Native American
Front Page ^ | February 8, 2019 | Daniel Greenfield

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez falsely claimed to be a girl from the Bronx, when she was actually an architect's daughter from Westchester. Then she decided to claim Jewish ancestry and now, joins Senator Elizabeth Warren in claiming to be Indian.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said that America needs to allow illegal immigrants, who are Latino, to stay in the country because they are descendants of Native Americans, and the United States is on native lands. She made the remarks during a press conference in which she called for the abolishment of ICE on Thursday.

“We have to have respect for children, respect for families, respect for human rights, and respect for the right of human mobility because it is a right,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “It is a right because we are standing on native land, and Latino people are descendants of native people, and we can not be told and criminalized simply for our identity or our status, period.”

You're a descendant of European colonists. You share a last name with Cortes, one of the most infamous Spanish colonist leaders.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez is no more a descendant of "native peoples" than Senator Elizabeth Warren is.

AOC has also claimed to be Jewish and claimed to have grown up in the Bronx when she actually grew up in Westchester.

Just one more lying Democrat politician.

From her bio:

During college, she served as an intern in the immigration office during the final year of U.S. Senator Ted Kennedy's tenure. "I was the only Spanish speaker, and as a result, as basically a kid—a 19-, 20-year-old kid—whenever a frantic call would come into the office because someone is looking for their husband because they have been snatched off the street by ICE, I was the one that had to pick up that phone," Ocasio-Cortez said. "I was the one that had to help that person navigate that system."

Silly article. She is brown because she is Mestizo, which means she has native ancestry. White Hispanics are white because they’re either purely European or mostly European.

You know how new Jello looks in the bowl before it sets fully? Wobbly and squishy and flexible?

That’s how Dems think of the truth.

Scandinavians have a stronger claim to North America than do Central and South Americans since they have been stomping around North America and the Atlantic Ocean since 800 AD and the Central and South Americans didn't show up until 35 years or so. The native tribes in the US are separation and distinct people from the Mesoamerican tribes and to conflate the two groups is a gigantic lie. Also when we took land from Mexico the Mexicans on our lands stayed in the US and became citizens - they did not flee into Mexico because it was a lawless shithole even then.

I’m Native American. I was born here, as were my parents, my grandparents, my great-grandparents, and my great-great-grandparents.

Don’t let the Ancient Aliens researchers hear that. A “tribal elder” explained the ancestors came from a star in the sky. Actually a planet. They taught a lot of survival stuff and then left.

Then we Americans are third in line and practically new arrival immigrants and get benefits. Gimme.

Whatever happened to the old adage “To the winner go the spoils”? Somebody needs to tell this to people who claim they are the true “native” and own everything here.

Her problem is ignorance, exuberance, arrogance and ideological blindness all together thrust into the spotlight, and told to speak some words into the microphone.

The result is the half-digested vomit we read about constantly now.
