Ocasio-Cortez Attacks Black Fox News Reporter, Gets a Huge Reality Check

WATCH: Look who Ocasio-Cortez blames for her growing ‘unfavorability’

Another day, another stupid tweet from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

She recently decided to take on Fox News, accusing the network of attempting to make the border crisis look worse than it truly is.

It all started with this tweet from Lawrence Jones:

There is a crisis on the border. It’s time to stop playing politics. Liberals continue to ignore the problem and call those who are worried about it racists. They continue to accuse us of manufacturing a crisis.

Does “live from the border” mean Party City?

Fox is really out here doing the most on a budget to make the border look more dangerous than it is 😂

Are you kidding me? Say what you want about his get-up, but it’s foolish to ignore the Actual Violence on the border.

She retweeted this too.

This is totally ridiculous.

I have never once worn a bulletproof vest at the border, nor has CBP ever asked me to — even while on a chase with Border Patrol to apprehend migrants in remote Arizona desert in the middle of the night.

Because. The. Border. Is. Not. A. War. Zone. https://t.co/Q1V95e7N5x

Lawrence hit back. He said the agent instructed him to wear it. He wasn’t trying to put on a show.

“Just two months ago, there was a shooting. … We control this side of the border, but the cartel controls the other side of the border. There’s been gun fights,” he explained.

Easy. The agent standing right in front of me RIGHT NOW said, “when you’re with me I’m responsible for your safety. So you’re putting on a vest.” https://t.co/hHbxZc5EML

Just two months ago, AOC. JUST TWO MONTHS AGO.

AOC also got a huge reality check on Twitter.

I dare you to take your 100 pound self to the border with no security and let us see if it's not an emergency.

The guy doesn't look like border patrol since he's not in uniform and appears to be a reporter. I would take educated guess they gave him one for his safety/liability concerns.

Get a clue, AOC.
