Full Title: Ocasio-Cortez Gets Head Stuck In Bucket, Journalists Rush To Explain Why It Was Actually A Genius Move
WASHINGTON, D.C.—On Wednesday, New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez somehow got her head stuck inside a bucket. She was heard yelling, “Who turned out the lights?” while repeatedly running full speed into walls. Republicans immediately pounced, using this as proof that Ocasio-Cortez is “kind of a dummy.” Many journalists, on the other hand, leaped to Ocasio-Cortez’s defense, saying her getting her head firmly wedged inside of a plastic bucket was further proof of her being an intelligent and dynamic politician.
“Most people don’t have her scientific curiosity and intelligence,” said MSNBC pundit Chris Hayes. “Someone incurious like Trump would never look at a bucket and ask ‘Could my head fit inside that?’ But Ocasio-Cortez dives into such questions head first.”
“She is making a bold statement,” said CNN’s Chris Cuomo. “The bucket on her head is from Walmart, and she is saying loud and clear that corporations have blinded us all.”
Many activists also defended Ocasio-Cortez on Twitter, though they seemed confused about exactly how to defend her, some talking about how buckets are important to society and others calling for the destruction of all buckets.
As for Ocasio-Cortez, she is doubling down and refusing to apologize, even though the incident caused a huge delay for the Capitol janitorial staff.
Did AOC misinterpret a Bucket Challenge?
When asked is she was okay with boyfriend calling her “Ass Face” she responded heartliy “Hee Hawlways” says that...
That gave me my best laugh of the day!
A good joke usually contains a fair amount of truth.

She wears the Cone of Shame!
Queue Kramer’s bucket helmeted mailman dummy.
Buckets are RACIST!!
I think Chris Hayes would actually say something like that.....
This is obviously satire! Her head is permanently wedged up her @$$
It was the first thing on her Bucket List! Whud up?
Thanks for putting “Satire” in the headline. Saved me some clicks. Good FReeper etiquette.
I do believe there is a rule to mark Satire as such.
OH, what comedy gold. Satire to be sure, but the perfect analogy. Just slightly a shade away from the depths dementiacrats race to the bottom. Circling the wagons on stupid decisions and doubling down on dumb. The end result be damned for the worship at the altar of liberalism destructive.
Or something
I agree that’s a great rule. Now if FReepers would just follow the rule...
She should just forget about the oats on the bottom. The trainer will put more feed in there eventually.
I’m dying to know the names of the actual writers for the Babylon Bee.
Those guys are rockstars.
If they were writing for SNL, I’d start watching again.
