Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez bashed US foreign policy during a private meeting with Bronx community leaders, prompting two military veterans to storm out.

“She knocks the country, she knocks the president. And that’s not what America is about,” said Silvio Mazzella, a Vietnam War vet and treasurer of Community Board 11.

Anthony Vitaliano — an Army veteran who worked in the NYPD for 38 years, and commanded the Bronx’s homicide detectives — was sitting between Ocasio-Cortez and a staffer for the freshman Dem.

Who'd you vote for last time around, Mr. Mazzella ...?

The bartender in the Bronx said it didn't happen.  No one walked out.  She poured it on and poured another round, and all was good.  The sweater puppies rules.

New  York Cop for 38 years, VN veteran per article. I don't quite need to ask who he voted for.... everyone can make their judgements though.

Who among us would not have tapped that in our younger, pre-wild oats days?  That's why they make paper bags and ball gags, right?
