AOC Perfectly Shames Ted Cruz After He Tried to Blame Democrats for Failing to Pass Relief Package

People across the country are going hungry, COVID is set to explode, and Mitch McConnell dismissed the Senate last week.

I don't know how these people can sleep at night. I really don't.

Why is your party filibustering $500 billion in COVID relief?

And Joe Biden is cheering them on. Thinking that blocking relief somehow helps Dems win Georgia. https://t.co/b8PvuUpSa3

The House doesn't have filibusters, @tedcruz.

We also passed several COVID relief packages to the Senate that not only include >$500 billion, but also prioritize helping real people as opposed to Wall St bailouts the GOP tries to pass off as “relief."

Nice try though 👍🏽 https://t.co/X4YIdiXh5y

I hope someone else runs Cruz's Twitter account because it'd be pretty embarrassing if a US Senator didn't know this.

Almost as embarrassing as when Sen. @JohnCornyn didn't appear to know that Puerto Ricans don't get to vote in the Presidential

.@AOC seems not to know there are Democrats in the Senate.

Or that Joe Biden (also a Dem) is publicly calling on Senate Dems to continue filibustering COVID relief because he thinks it will help them win Georgia. https://t.co/vy5HG3h2qr

You know in the House, when we don't have the votes to pass something, we work on the bill until we pick up the votes to pass it. That includes GOP votes - & yes, GOP have voted for my leg too.

The Senate should try it sometime! People are going hungry as you tweet from vacay. https://t.co/INdMqmx1xr

If Ted Cruz spend all the energy he does use attacking AOC, he might actually do some good for his home state of Texas.... https://t.co/OzLYlF7y8h

@tedcruz putting on a stunning display of trying to mansplain how he gets nothing done https://t.co/7R8E8sRM2P

Ted Cruz—so-called 'evangelical,' totally devoid of truth, honor, integrity.

These GOP Senators are beyond hypocritical & shameless in their utterances.

Worse still, Cruz puts himself forward as an 'evangelical?'

Evangel=good news.
What 'good news' are you bearing, Cruz? https://t.co/CswUN5weEX
