Check out the rating Snopes is giving stories that point out AOC's lie about nearly dying at the Capitol

Joel Abbott   |   Feb 4th, 2021 11:55 am

Remember how millions watched AOC do an Instagram livestream where she re-enacted the horrors of the Capitol riot earlier this month, breaking down on camera as she talked about her brush with certain death?

Remember how the story broke that AOC wasn't even in the Capitol at the time of the riot, and how the "mob" coming for her were actually law enforcement sent to keep her safe?

Remember how she's actively accusing Sen. Ted Cruz and other GOP members of being murderers and insurrectionists, as well as calling for the end of wrongthink and free speech?

Well if you do remember, there's no need to think about it any more. Snopes led the charge of flushing this one down the memory hole with an absolutely laughable fAcT-cHeCk.

Here's what they said:

Quote
"Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez exaggerated the danger she was in during the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, in that she 'wasn't even in the Capitol building' when the rioting occurred."

Here was their rating:

Is there any doubt left that Snopes is a DNC propaganda outlet?

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

They are such a joke that if anyone uses them as a source they are laughed at.  There is a reason why we call it "Nopes".
