Ocasio-Cortez Blames Guns For Assass

New York Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez immediately blamed guns and, by extension,

Republican inaction on limiting access to certain guns, in the aftermath of the

assassination of Turning Point USA founder and leading conservative advocate Charlie Kirk.

In a video posted by the Daily Caller News Foundation, AOC, surrounded by reporters,

deferred to the typical Democratic talking point when asked for her thoughts about her the doomsday rhetoric that her

party often uses when describing President Donald Trump and his America First movement.

“You know, beyond rhetoric, we need to talk about action,” she began. “Yes, we need to talk about…

there are words…but most importantly, we are in the job of leadership.

We are in a job of action. We are in a role, a position, where the American people are looking to us to do something about this.

“Every single day people are dying due to gun violence in America, and every single day,

there are people in this building that continue to vote against doing anything,” she added as she pointed to the Capitol behind her.
