Ocasio-Cortez attacks fact-checkers for calling her out / exposing her lies

[Thinker101]

Do alert us when she goes all "fake news"/"alternative facts" with this type of thing, K?

Why bother, if you're too stupid now, you'll be just as stupid tomorrow.

Not stupid enough to watch Don do all whined about here daily and remain in denial.

Yup, you're way too busy being in denial regarding the democrats.

The one thing she did that was smart...
She did not use her 60 Minutes interview to attack Trump.

"Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., has been called out by fact-checkers at a steady clip since her upset primary win last year over then-Rep. Joe Crowley. She's apparently had enough. On Monday, she took aim at PolitiFact and The Washington Post fact-check unit for supposedly singling her out.

“Facts are facts, America. We should care about getting things right. Yet standards of who gets fact-checked, how often + why are unclear,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted Monday. “This is where false equivalency + bias creeps in, allowing climate deniers to be put on par w/ scientists, for example.”

So AOC claims the fact-checkers are guilty of false equivalency & bias for pointing out her lies because they allow people who do not agree with her radical stance on Global Warming are allowed to say things she disagrees with?

She also suggested the reason she has been caught in so many lies, which she does not really deny are lies, is because the fact-checkers CHECK HER STATEMENTS FOR VALIDITY JUST AS OFTEN AS THEY CHECK THOSE OF THE WH AND PRESIDENT, that if they spent MORE of their time fact-checking the WH and President instead of checking them all equally she would be caught lying a whole lot less often!

"Her argument was not so much that the columns were wrong but that they should be scrutinizing the Trump White House more. Ocasio-Cortez complained that PolitiFact fact-checked her the “same” amount of times as White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders."

I clicked on the link. It didn’t take me to any fact check. It took me to Fox news.

No shit?! So you clicked on the link I provided, and it took you to the story I was referencing that tells the whole story of what I was discussing, about how AOC was attacking the Fact Check Sites for unfairly checking her claims' validity as often as they do the WH and's and President's.......

And that is weird to you?

Bwuhahahahaha.......

Ya gotta love her It's ok to factually incorrect as long as your heart is "in the right place".

"Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) said on "60 Minutes" Sunday that the focus on her factual errors by political opponents was "missing the forest for the trees" and having her facts right wasn't as important as being "morally right."

How in the hell can you be "morally right" if you're basing it on bullshit?

The top 20% pay 88% of Federal Income Taxes, according to the CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE, yet that's not enough for Cortez!

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) recently proposed a 70 percent top federal income tax rate. This would nearly double the current top tax bracket, which is currently at 37 percent. Ocasio-Cortez fails to mention that the tax code is already steeply progressive.



According to the Congressional Budget Office:

-The top one percent of households pay 39.4 percent of federal income taxes and 26.2 percent of total federal taxes.

- The top 20 percent of households pay 88.1 percent of federal income taxes and 69.5 percent of total federal taxes.

- The top one percent of households pay an average income tax rate of 24 percent while the middle quintile pays an average income tax rate of 3 percent.

- The top one percent of households pay an average total tax rate of 33.3 percent while the middle quintile pays an average total tax rate of over 14 percent.

- The top 20 percent of households pay an average total tax rate of 26.7 percent while the middle quintile pays an average total tax rate of 14 percent.

Well of course. Republicans have been looting the country for decades on behalf of the super rich, so naturally they would pay more, because they own everything.

It's not rocket science.

In other words, you just look at Fox and you don't bother actually looking at the fact check you are crowing about.

I rode in a cab once and the driver started spouting Biblical nonsense. Clearly, he had never read the Bible from the BS he was saying.

So I asked him if he ever read the Bible and he said he didn't have too. Because his pastor told him what it said.

True story.

Don't call me names for putting out facts and telling the truth. If I were lying, you would attack my "facts". But when you attack me, it's because you can't attack the "facts".
Sorry.

Yeah, this never happened. NO sect of Christianity believes that a person shouldn't read the Bible for themselves.

Muslims are the ones who believe only the imam can interpret the Koran.

I've only been here since the end of November, but I've yet to see you post an actual fact.

Wow she just condemned the entire Mueller

Yet, you'll take the Tax Cuts, Great Economy, Historically Low Unemployment, Job Creation, Low Gasoline, and Energy Prices that Trump helped enable?

Gotta love effing hypocrites.

In other words, you just look at Fox and you don't bother actually looking at the fact check you are crowing about.

In other words I gave you the link to the report I was discussing, the report gives all the facts that even AOC is not denying. You are not even disputing the facts or attempting to disprove them. You are just attempting to dismiss the entire 'inconvenient truth' based on the source, which you personally hate.

Like Nancy Pelosi, you just declared, "I reject your FACTS!"

Bwuhahahaha.....

What does this rambling result of TDS have to do with AOC complaining about being busted repeatedly for lying?

That's our girl AOC. Clearly a mental giant.
