Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was in Memphis, TN, on Friday. She appeared with State Representative Justin Pearson and fellow Congressional Democrats Summer Lee and Ayanna Pressley. The group was protesting the xAI data center in the southwest area of the Bluff City. Residents claim pollution from the supercomputer facility is making it hard for them to breathe.
Unfortunately, AOC had no such trouble as she trotted out a new bl'accent for the occasion. (WATCH)
We can’t blame artificial intelligence for what we’re hearing, just AOC’s lack of intelligence.
One poster had the right idea to watch the video with the sound off.
