'So long as I can go home every single day and look to myself in the mirror and say ‘you did what you thought was right and you did not compromise people and their well being along the way,' Ocasio-Cortez said. 'That’s all I care about.'

Instagram live videos are nothing new for New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The freshman Democrat has previously taken to the social media platform to answer policy questions while cooking and highlighted her first week in Congress with a series of Instagram stories that garnered her more attention from supporters, critics and media.

Ocasio-Cortez took questions from those watching, discussing everything from why President Donald Trump hasn't released his tax returns to if she thinks Puerto Rico should become the 51st state. Ocasio-Cortez has drawn criticism for her Green New Deal, a wide-ranging policy that seeks to reduce the United States carbon emissions to zero by 2050. While most Democrats praised the resolution, Republicans have balked at the cost of such an endeavor, including Trump who has frequently asserted that Ocasio-Cortez wants to tear down every building in Manhattan and rebuild them.

"People who are trying to mock and delay this moment, I mean, I just feel bad for you. I just pity you for your role in history right now," Ocasio-Cortez added. New York Rep.

"I'm here to tell you that maybe Q2 profits are not more important than our grandchildren," she said."So, you can do whatever you want. You can troll me in the short term; you can rake me over the coals. You can make me look like an entire joke in front of society, just know that that’s a short term reality. And whether I’m here or I’m not here, the truth and the facts stay the same, brother.

I would love for AOC to put her money where her mouth is and debate benshapiro. Let's see how she can defend herself when confronted with another person that actually has facts.

Did AOC include how-to instructions on how to steal campaign donations?

Another successful project from AOC:

Why with her salary is she putting junk together. Why hasn't her paycheck helped her to get settled in. Why is she Tweeting and video taping silliness. This is like an average 12 yr old 'BRO', and some guys are eating it up.

She is far from wrong. She can be a joke now. But that wont last very long. Climate is a real threat .

AOC 5 seconds it is!! LMAO

More politicians should totally do this.

I'm sorry but AOC, she is really cool. By that I mean, substantive.

So what!!

What’s with the circus music, ? None of what she said was necessarily silly

😊👏👏👏AOC

What the hell was that? That's like a child, playing in her room.

I know 12 year olds with more maturity and logic than this.

She’s a multitasker

Why did you re-post this? Didn't like the comments section haha? (R)s do not like her because she is supremely unqualified and proves it every single day.

Lol

Cool
