AOC says Capitol Police were 'opening the doors' for Jan. 6 rioters

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) tore into U.S. Capitol Police for failing to forestall the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, alleging some officers were sympathetic to the event.

Ocasio-Cortez stressed that authorities never "got to the bottom" of whether officers aided and were "opening the doors" to rioters who stormed the Capitol while warning fellow lawmakers, "We're not safe" at the Capitol.

"There were actual officers working with this, and we never got to the bottom of that, and we never got any answers about that," Ocasio-Cortez said Wednesday. "I have no idea what happened to the people on the inside, who were very clearly sympathetic with what was going on and opening the doors wide open for that."

It is not clear what Ocasio-Cortez was referencing when she mentioned officers were "opening the doors" to the rioters, but dozens arrested in the riot argued in court documents that officers had either not stopped them from entering the building or never told them they weren't allowed inside.

Lol. This dumb bish is flubbing their narrative. Stick to the script.

Actually, it was Pelosi who ordered the Capitol police to let the rioters in, in order to have what she called an ‘insurrection’ to charge Trump with.

It was all part of a set-up against Trump.

AOC should take it up with Nancy.

Pandora, I don’t think you really want to open that box. There’s a lot of people like Matt Goetz who would back you all the way if you want to go down this road.

She blurted out the truth. The memo was probably to suppress this fact.

I heard Trump had secretly tapped into their brainwaves, forcing them to open the doors...

And none of them have been arrested for “insurrection”. These guys in jail all need to have their convictions tossed. They are fraudulent and just a bunch of “political bombshells” for the DNC’s America-hating, “mainstream media”.

Because they don’t want to get to the bottom of it! It was staged.

“There were actual officers working with this, and we never got to the bottom of that, and we never got any answers about that,”

Such insurrectionist lies! This is as bad as the inciting comments Trump made. Maybe the 1/6 inquisitors should put her in the docket.
