Freshman New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D) in an interview late Monday said she gives "zero" f---s about criticism shes received from members of her own party.
Now, congresswoman, for you and other freshmen members of Congress, you're getting a fair amount of pushback from even members of your own party saying wait your turn, go slow, don't ask for so much so fast right now, you're new, wait your turn for everything and don't make waves,'" late-night host Stephen Colbert said to the rising progressive star on CBS's "The Late Show."
I want to ask this question in a respectful manner, knowing also that you're from Queens, so you will understand this question, he continued.
And the BX, Ocasio-Cortez, who is also from the Bronx, laughingly injected.
On a scale from zero to some, how many f---s do you give?
After taking a moment to deliberate, Ocasio-Cortez reached into her side and pulled out her hand to make a circle, saying: I think its zero.
Thats my thought! Colbert exclaimed.
When pressed further about her response to lawmakers who say her actions show a divided front for the Democratic Party, Ocasio-Cortez responded: Its how we choose to interpret items and how we choose to interpret events and things like activism and advocacy.
If you think activism is inherently divisive I mean, today is Martin Luther King Day, she continued. People called Martin Luther King divisive in his time. We forget he was wildly unpopular when advocating for the Civil Rights Act. I think that what we really need to realize is that social movements are the moral compass and should be the moral compass for our politics.

Sade (as in Marquis de) or Sadie?
“... how many f-—s do you give?”
I’m just an old guy. But, what on earth does that term really mean?? Is that whore house talk??
It’s a vulgar synonym for “cares”
Sade.
All I can say is...NY Senators better watch their ‘6’, because Occasional Kotex plans to be the next US Senator of NY.
Like I tell others: She’s the greatest gift the GOP could get.
>>>Someone needs her mouth washed out with soap
What is inappropriate about her response “I think its zero?
It was Colbert and the headline writer that used f——s.
She needs to be taken down. She is a leftist and that is all I need to know about her.
The bigger problem is the idiots that vote for the likes of her. She’s just a symptom of the disease.
You can’t converse with the devil nor deal with Marxists.
It is time for the right to realize there is no compromise.
