Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said she is in therapy as a result of the January 6 Capitol breach, or what she described as an “all-out, attempted coup that had a lot of us, especially Latino communities, in a very reactive mode.”
Speaking to the radio show Latino USA, the far-left Democrat said U.S. lawmakers effectively “served in war” and explained she “took some time” after the event. She confided in fellow “Squad” member Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), who told her she needed to “recognize trauma.”
Recalling the event, Ocasio-Cortez described how former Vice President Mike Pence was taken out of the chamber a mere minute before “these terrorists, insurrectionists got into the Senate chamber.”
“Pence was the one person, arguably, that had one of the most important roles in making sure that procedurally the Electoral College counts went on as proceeded,” she said.
“Sixty seconds could have meant potentially the difference between what we have right now and a martial state,” the far-left lawmaker continued. “This was an all-out attempted coup.”
“If 60 seconds went differently, if a different door was opened, if a chair wasn’t barricaded in a certain way, we could have a completely different reality right now,” she added. “We don’t want to acknowledge that that’s how close we got, but that is how close we got.”
How do you stop a woman from acting hysterical? Don’t pay any attention to her.
not the bee?
What drama queen.
She needed to be in therapy long before Jan 6th. Indeed, a brain transplant would be an improvement.
Well it was obvious from the get go she needed help.
iirc she wasn’t even in the building.
Does she have a “pretend therapist” for her “pretend trauma” incurred at a “pretend event”?
She was nuts long before January 6th.
Poor Sandy.
Thousands roamed the street, burning buildings, killing cops, destroying whole towns...and it was no big deal because it was about supporting blacks.
Insanity!!
IS SHE paying for it? OR are the USA taxpayers paying for it?
Almost 5 months later.
All kidding aside, why do we allow such idiots to serve in public office? Why is she not dragged out and put in an insane asylum? Why does the media not laugh her out of her office? Enough of this ****.
Far far past time to start making leftists ashamed, afraid, and ready to move.
Period.
Yes, Sandy, for the want of a nail a kingdom was lost.
Drama queen bitch.
