The queen of extreme hyperbole had the tables turned on her in a major fashion.
An online video shows Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez surrounded by reporters when she’s asked if Planned Parenthood can be likened to a concentration camp for the unborn.
“Congresswoman, do you think Planned Parenthood and abortion clinics are like concentration camps for fetuses?” one reporter inquires.
“Um, absolutely not, sir … that’s kind of crazy,” the New York Representative responds, seemingly unaware that she’s been peddling in crazy since becoming a member of Congress.
In the video, Ocasio-Cortez then dons a trademark confused expression before being ushered away.
The reporter was clearly attempting to agitate Ocasio-Cortez by throwing her own extremist rhetoric back at her.
The socialist leader of the new Democrat party raised eyebrows last week when she chose to denigrate America by saying the federal government is operating “concentration camps” for illegal immigrants at the southern border.
Despite an outcry from Holocaust museums, remembrance groups, and victims of violence perpetrated by illegal immigrants, she insisted that her analogy was spot on and doubled, tripled, and quadrupled down on the reprehensible smear.
“I will never apologize for calling these camps what they are,” she stated. “If that makes you uncomfortable, fight the camps – not the nomenclature.”
To be clear, there should be no condoning the analogy. Concentration camps, the Holocaust, Nazi Germany – these all hold a terribly unique place in history and should be treated with respect and dignity and never forgotten.
The terms should not be thrown around wantonly to make political points.
Ocasio-Cortez, like most card-carrying liberals, supports the Planned Parenthood abortion mill while pretending to be concerned about children when it comes to allowing illegal immigrants into the United States.
She recently mocked pro-life laws – you know, the ones actually saving the lives of children – by claiming: “If these male GOP elected officials could get pregnant, there would be free abortion nationwide.”
The Democrat also retweeted Barbra Streisand saying, “If male politicians could get pregnant, there would be as many Planned Parenthood clinics as there are Post Offices.”
Why would she want so many places that kill unborn babies to pop up across the country? We thought she cared about the children.

Her and Joe must be related !!
O'Crazio Cortez, is a miserable excuse for a human being! hardly worthy of her elected job....."NOT A CLUE"......Her Electorate, is very low IQ, & un-educated!
There are more than two sides to the abortion issue. The middle ground compromise is being totally ignored. The issue is not "either pro-choice or pro-life" but government regulated "limited individual choice." The Communist Government of CHINA, with one of the largest populations in the world, HAS OUTLAWED HUMAN POPULATION INCREASE, claiming excess human reproduction is a form of environmental pollution.
China is neither pro-life nor pro-choice. Their totalitarian government eliminated about 40 million people during the Great Leap Forward. These people were either political resistors or economically burdensome for a transition to industrialism. China went from an economic disaster at the end of WWII to the Number Two Industrial Power in the world today. Has history vindicated Mao? Applause from the Left.
China then prohibited its married couples from having more than one child per family. This worked for 30 years to reduce and stabilize the population of China and aid in the better education of a predictable number of children. Now Chinese couples may have two children per family, BUT NO MORE. Illegal pregnancies are aborted by operation of China's Planned Parenthood Laws. Parents who are married have three choices; they may legally have zero, one or two children. If they get sexually sterilized, they can also have endless sex with no illegal consequences.
Great Platform for a Democrats running for President. Just kidding.
“If these male GOP elected officials could get pregnant, there would be free abortion nationwide.”
How about "If females kept their legs shut, there would be no need for abortion nationwide?" All this cr@p about "men get half the blame"; just say no.
Every other word out there is spewed by both sides daily. You do not become a humane being by giving your unbridled passions full reign. Civilization arises from RESTRICTIONS on activities; you know, like laws against theft, trespass and assault.
I guarantee the aforementioned will be reviled by members of Victim Nation.
Women want equality had best grow a spine first.
AOC does a lot of talking, frequently about things she has little or no real knowledge or experience with! Case in point, she failed to take the opportunity offered to her to visit and learn the truth about the holocaust that occurred during WWII! Yet she continues to make comments about it!
For an individual of my age 82 I personally find her comments and attitude quite despicable!
we have far too many politicians who say things just to take a political position regardless of the effect upon the country! I find them equally despicable!

A post office with a counter with people and hours that make sense? Very few, anymore. LOL
China, future of Family Planning.
During the Great Leap Forward, Mao's Communists post-aborted (murdered well after they were born) 40 million unnecessary agricultural workers and resistors. This was necessary to achieve the transition to an industrial state. They are now #2 globally.
The Chinese wanted to prevent an increase in the population. Over-population was claimed to be a form of environmental pollution needing to be brought under control. They passed a Law prohibiting married couples from having more than one child per family. This law was enforced for 30 years. It was recently changed to allow married couples to now have two children.
How did the Chinese Communists deal with extra pregnancies? They required pre-birth abortion of all extra (illegal) pregnancies, or the death of an earlier born child.
Why does no-one mention these facts when claiming that unlimited pro-choice is the “either or” alternative to any limits to fetal abortion? There are always more than two sides to every argument involving ethics. The hidden alternate in family planning may very well be China’s totalitarian “no individual choice.”
The obvious and permanent solution to "HUMAN CAUSED" climate change is not to limit CO2 emissions, thus limiting the quality of life for each individual, but to reduce the total number of humans. The 7 billion of today needs to be reduced to 1 billion. Eliminate all unnecessary humans. Try genocide, it works. Thanks Chairman Mao. Just kidding. CDS
Planned Parenthood is Auschwitz, Birkenau, and Treblinka all in one.
