Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y. is criticizing Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema after she announced her decision to leave the Democratic Party and register as an independent on Friday.

Sinema announced the decision in an Arizona Republic op-ed published on Friday, criticizing America's two party system.

"Americans are told that we have only two choices – Democrat or Republican – and that we must subscribe wholesale to policy views the parties hold, views that have been pulled further and further toward the extremes," Sinema wrote. "Most Arizonans believe this is a false choice, and when I ran for the U.S. House and the Senate, I promised Arizonans something different."

In response, Ocasio-Cortez said that Sinema doesn't offer "a single concrete value or policy she believes in

Its about her political career, she wants to avoid being primaried by a Dem, I’d guess

She’s treading the needle to get re-elected. I don’t see that turning out well, but who knows. AZ is corrupt to the core. There are no fair elections in AZ.

I’m sure AOC’s displeasure is causing real sleepless nights in the Sinema household.

Don’t kid yourself Sinema did not do this out of a sense of decency. It protects her from the primary and it changes nothing, she is still caucusing with the rats.

Sinema’s move means nothing, for now.

Schumer is letting her keep her committed positions. Telling me that this is more of a political than ideological move and that she has promised Schumer that she’ll still be voting with the Democrats.

But, Title 42 is about to end. Illegals are camped out on the border waiting for it to end. When it does, they will be flooding hospitals, docs in a box, and urgent care clinics all over the border. Overwhelming them.

They’ll start closing or worse

And she supported her Democrat President and her fellow Democrat member of Congress in bringing it all on.

Arizona is about to catch holy hell. And if Abbott can tighten up the Texas border even more, the human flow will just shift left and head to Az, NM, Cali

AOC....Another Obnoxious Communist....is upset because her bogus party is losing control of the House on January 3rd, and it’s getting to her.

We are already overwhelmed here in NYC, where many of them came. Medical care is the first to suffer.

Maybe there will more defections from the Dems to come, and for better reasons. Let’s hope.

NYC is now dealing with problems that states on the SW border have been dealing with for decades.

Watch this video so your blood can boil. Goes back to 2009, I believe.

Outrageous! Illegal immigrants and how they drive up our health care costs.

‘People deserve more’

Cortez has no room about who deserve more all she’s ever served was her skank self.

Yes, that video is what’s happening here. Thanks for sending it.

Hospital emergency rooms are overwhelmed. At one hospital here, they treat the ER patients first in the course of the day, probably because they don’t want to incur the cost of admitting them and having to keep them overnight or longer. That means the hospital patients have to wait till late in the day for their operations, forcing them to refrain from food and water from 12 midnight until sometimes the evening.

Some doctors have started refusing to treat ALL Medicare patients. Others treat them but a patient has to wait months for an appointment.
