Republicans Think Sharing This Video of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Dancing on a Rooftop in College Is a Sick Burn--Well, It Backfired Spectacularly

That's all you got?

In yet another attempt to demonize Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Republican conspiracy theorists shared a video circulated by Dan Jordan of the newly-sworn in representative dancing in her college days.

The video was shared by a perpetrator of the QAnon conspiracy theory as an attempt to show "commie know-it-all" Ocasio-Cortez acting like the "clueless nitwit she is." It incorrectly stated that the video was from Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez's high school days, when it was actually a promotional video she took part in with other students for her alma mater Boston University (whose emblem is clearly visible across her shirt).


The edited video—which shows Ocasio-Cortez on a roof jamming a la The Breakfast Club—only made her even more endearing to Twitter.

Some quickly began reaching to justify resurfacing the video.

But it was too late—and even exacerbated the already embarrassing move.

It wasn't long before people started pointing out the hypocrisy.

Soon, users were sharing resurfaced photos of some of the Republican party's superstars.

Many pointed out what Brett Kavanaugh was reported to do in high school before still being confirmed to the Supreme Court.

Looks like yet another attempt to "own the libs" failed miserably.

Per an executive order from President Donald Trump, the Department of Veterans Affairs has introduced revised guidelines for VA hospitals nationwide, removing explicit protections that previously barred medical staff from discriminating against patients based on political beliefs or marital status—meaning these facilities can now discriminate against Democrats or unmarried veterans.

While federal law still mandates that veterans receive care regardless of race, color, religion, or sex, the new guidelines omit previous language that protected against discrimination based on political affiliation and marital status, reportedThe Guardian.

Resurfaced Trump Tweet Criticizing Obama Over Iran Comes Back To Bite Him

Amid tensions with Iran, President Donald Trump was criticized for hypocrisy after social media users resurfaced a 2013 tweet in which he accused former President Barack Obama of planning an attack on Iran because of his "inability to negotiate properly."

Trump has declined to clarify whether the U.S. is edging closer to launching strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, following a warning from Iran’s supreme leader against any attack and a rejection of Trump’s demand for surrender.
