AOC wasn't in the Capitol Building at the time of the Jan. 6 riot—she was in another building entirely

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has spoken at length about her experience during the Capitol Hill riot on Jan. 6. From her live Instagram videos, it has seemed like she was on the front line, facing down Trump supporting rioters in the halls outside her office. But it turns out, Ocasio-Cortez wasn't in the Capitol at the time of the assault on Congress, she was in her office another building entirely.

Ocasio-Cortez's congressional office is in the Cannon House Office Building, according to her website, her Washington, DC address is 229 Cannon HOB. The Cannon HOB is accessible to the Capitol via tunnel. On Tuesday, Ocasio-Cortez spoke to millions of fans on Instragram relaying her past experience of sexual assault, which she said left her traumatized. This experience, she said, was compounded by her what happened to her during the Capitol Hill riot.

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) said that her office is in the same hallway as Ocasio-Cortez, two doors down, and that there were no rioters in that area at any time. She called out the New York representative for her "egregious" claims.

Taking emotion out of the equation, it appears that what happened was that Ocasio-Cortez was in her office in a building on congressional campus at the time the Capitol Building was unlawfully accessed by a mob of violent rioters seeking to disrupt Congress. Ocasio-Cortez was afraid, in her office in another building, and hid in the bathroom.

I think this makes AOC a virutal insurrectionist.

Then the Republicans should be calling for her to be censured.
That’s how it works now, right?

Reminds me of that POS Hogg from the school shooting. I never want to call people liars and generally give the benefit of doubt but liberals and psychopaths always lie and the media never tells the truth if it is not fitting their narrative and agenda. AOC is a demented drama queen who holds power and that is unsettling. 1/6 is one big fraud and lie.

Blatantly lying should get her kicked off a few committees.

Whether she was in the Capitol or not isn’t the point. She was somewhat awake and that is enough to cause her to recognize and regurgitate adnauseum her fear.

She was in another building because she knew the “riot” was going to happen.

Hogg was in a closet with others. After the school was cleared, he went home for his camera and biked back to school.

It’s not the facts, it’s the narrative that matters.

Drama queens down through the ages have led to a great deal of mischief and misplaced effort on the part of others. Attempting to placate the little screech-owl, just because, like the empty vessel she is, she is making a most unpleasant amount of nonsense, is a fool’s errand.

In her universe, Point A does not have to connect to Point B. Wholly unrelated facts get paired up, and nobody calls her to account. Frankly, I think folks are mostly afraid to.
