Tucker Carlson Guest Calls AOC's District 'Dirty' and 'One of the Most Un-American Districts in the Country' and People Aren't Having It

Tucker Carlson Guest Calls AOC's District 'Dirty' and 'One of the Most Un-American Districts in the Country' and People Aren't Having It
Fox News

Far-Right Fox News host Tucker Carlson frequently uses his primetime hour to rail against women, immigrants, veterans, and anyone else whose viewpoints and experiences match his own.

More often than not, his guests share these views as well. Such was the case when Tucker brought Conservative editor Seth Barron on his show to talk about the 14th District of New York, the section of the Bronx and Queens represented in Congress by Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.


The segment claimed the Congresswoman's district was disproportionately dirty and littered, compared to other neighborhoods in cities across the United States, which the hosts said undercut Ocasio-Cortez's vocal support for a Green New Deal. Her massive district holds nearly one million people in one of the most populated cities in the world.

The cause of trash, according to Barron? Undocumented immigrants.

Watch below.

Barron said:

"Well, part of the reason is because her district is actually one of the least American districts in the country, and by that, I don't mean that it's not part of America, but it's occupied by relatively few American citizens. A very high percentage of her district is, in fact, illegal aliens."

The comments fed into tropes that immigrants are inherently dirtier and more harmful to society than those born in the United States.

People didn't hesitate to call the duo out.







Ocasio-Cortez has yet to respond, but given her propensity for clapping back on Twitter, a rebuke seems more than likely.
