Ocasio-Cortez bans media from community meetings

[Common]

Congressional candidate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez banned the press from two community meetings in The Bronx and Queens that were open to all other members of the public — and now she’s taking heat for it.

The 28-year-old Democratic socialist has been a darling of the left since toppling Rep. Joe Crowley, the Queens Democratic leader, in June’s primary and appears to be a shoo-in for election in November.


As part of a “listening tour,” she invited future constituents to a meeting in The Bronx on Aug. 8 and in Corona, Queens on Sunday.


But reporters — including from the local Queens Chronicle that specializes in covering such events — were barred.

She realized that her answers to reporters bordered on retardation?

How does this numbskull imagine this will work in her favor? She is swirling the bowl already.

She can't unring that bell. Also, she can't avoid making public statements.

I know the conventional wisdom says that she's a lock for being elected because of the area she represents, but I'm not so sure if the conventional wisdom is accurate in this case.

I would only hope that her constituents wake up to her unfitness.
