during Trump press secretary Kayleigh McEnany’s briefing, she referred to AOC as a Biden adviser, but it was preceded by a fact that of course isn’t included in this tweet from Politico’s Jake Sherman, who tagged AOC for tattling purposes:
>@PressSec from the podium: “Biden adviser Alexandria Ocasio Cortez.” cc @AOC
— Jake Sherman
And Sherman’s tweet was all AOC needed for a response that was more than predictable, full context-be-damned:
.@PressSec wouldn’t be the first person to mistake a women of color for having a lower position or title than she does, but Kayleigh – in case you haven’t picked up a newspaper in two years, I’m a Congresswoman.
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
The @PressSec comment is steeped in a long, hurtful, & horrendous history of stripping women of color of titles and diminishing them to “the help.”
Perhaps she isn’t aware that what she did is mired in racist history. If that is the case, I look forward to her apology tomorrow.
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
But it’s actually AOC who should be delivering the apology:

— Kayleigh McEnany (@PressSec) June 8, 2020
Direct quote: "The President is appalled by the 'defund police' movement. The fact that you have SITTING CONGRESSWOMEN wanting to defund the police—notably Rashida Tlaib, notably Biden advisor Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez…"

Did AOC recently become black?????????????????

Progressives applaud the former vice president’s embrace of Bernie Sanders’ climate advisors. One analyst called the panel “the Climate Dream Team for Democrats.”
AOC is too stupid to live.

A woman who is sensible and talented does not use the race bait of color or race. They can stand on their own abilities and don’t need to use the political crutch.
Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't.
Margaret Thatcher
She does seem to consider herself a “person of color”.
Shrug, so does Rachel Dolezal.

Did AOC recently become black?

Her heart sure is. I don’t know about the rest of her. Mostly it’s just butt ugly.
Kayleigh DID call her a congresswoman. But she used a lower case “c” that bent the big mouth out of shape.
There’s nothing particularly useful or impressive about being a Congress person, so who really cares? She’s really full of herself, in addition to being a racist who is oblivious to her own racism.
From AOC:
PressSec wouldn’t be the first person to mistake a women of color for having a lower position....
::::
Honey, pay attention in class so you will know that the singular form is “woman” and the plural form is “women”.
In the future I shall refer to myself as a person of color.
HONKY is a color,too.
Where can I go to get my free stuff?

Perhaps she can explain how she is now a multi-millionaire after two years in DC?
The blithering idiot AOC (soon to be a bartender again) has spoken. No offense intended to bartenders for lumping AOC with you.
What makes you think AOC can read?
There’s a reason a group of baboons is called a “congress.”
She is not a “woman of color.”
Shaun King be damned.
White and black being colors depends entirely on whether you’re using additive color addition or subtractive color addition. Either situation, one is a blank canvas of no color, and the other is a mix of all colors.
“of color”
Everybody is “of color”. Some colors are apparently more special.
