Is Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez telling the truth about that unpleasant encounter with Rep. Ted Yoho?
The conservative congressman from Gainesville, Florida, according to Ocasio-Cortez, accosted her on the Capitol steps when she was just "minding her own business" as she described it, and then wound up an unhappy discussion about whether the vast looting orgy going on in New York and beyond was just a matter of shoplifters looking for bread as Ocasio-Cortez said. Ocasio-Cortez then claimed that Yoho ended his discussion about her policy with 'F***ing b***h!'
Which led to great haymaking on the congressional floor, with Ocasio-Cortez dressed up in her best bright red jacket and bright red lipstick in a point of personal privilege to maudlinly describe how she was her 'mother's daughter' and other snowflakery about how Ted hurt her feelings. It was also politically useful to her in a second sense, because she's under tremendous heat for her strange Victor Hugo-style canard about how the poor kicking in and looting the Nike stores on Madison Avenue are all just poor people looking for bread. That we all know is pure fiction.
It was a breathtaking speech that drew the beating of flippers from the trained seals of the press.
