DEBUNKED: AOC Wasn’t Hiding In The Capitol On Jan 6, ‘Insurrectionists’ Who ‘Tried To Kill’ Her Never Entered Her Building

The histrionics of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), who claimed she feared for her life and hid in a bathroom from pro-Trump insurrectionists during Capitol protests that invoked her past “trauma” as a “sexual assault survivor,” suffered a serious credibility blow Wednesday after it was revealed that Ocasio-Cortez was reportedly safely ensconced in the Cannon Building and Longworth House Office Building during the protests. Neither building was breached by protesters on Jan. 6.

Earlier this week, Ocasio-Cortez took to Instagram live to recount lurid tales of the terrors she endured both in her office and the office of fellow Rep. Katie Porter in the nearby Longworth House Office Building, during which she was sure an “insurrectionist” would storm the halls with a firearm and she would die.

Unfortunately for Ocasio-Cortez, it was revealed Wednesday that she was not even inside the Capitol, but the Cannon building, where her office is located. Her attempts to explain away this key omission only made a further subject of mockery on social media.

Fellow Rep. Nancy Mace debunked claims which proliferated on social media this week that insurrectionists stormed Ocasio-Cortez’s office.

Ocasio-Cortez, who frequently receives massive positive engagement on Twitter, was ultimately ratioed on her tweet trying to explain away her account of the Jan. 6 protests.

She was also roundly mocked for her attempts to stoke fear about pro-Trump protests after enthusiastically endorsing Black Lives Matter riots during the summer of 2020.

Ocasio-Cortez’s account of the events on Jan. 6, during which she states that “trauma compounds on each other,” was reported on Monday by National File:

“I am at a full ten, fight or flight, thought I was going to die, like, ten minutes ago, then thought I was going to die again because I have to tell you when I was banging on this door, I had thought that … the building had been breached and there were people walking the hallways,” said Ocasio-Cortez, 31.

“And I’m banging on this door, and I’m thinking, and I’m fully expecting, um, one of these insurrectionists to turn the corner with a gun, and that it would be over again,” the female freshman rep. recalled. Civilian possession of firearms is banned within the District of Columbia, and none of the pro-Trump protesters who entered the Capitol were armed.

Ocasio-Cortez went on to say that she “tore through” a colleagues office “like a madwoman,” scouring closets for places to hide, even as Congressional colleagues remained calm and believed there was no imminent threat to their lives.

“I’m a survivor of sexual assault, and I haven’t told many people that in my life,” Ocasio-Cortez sobbed, gesticulating to add emphasis. “But when we go through trauma, trauma compounds on each other.”

Multiple Trump supporters died during the protests, and no members of Congress were injured.
