If there were an official title for queen of bullsh*t, many would argue Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) would proudly wear the crown for her constant babbling of nonsense that has no basis in reality.
The Democrat diva once again showed off her profound ignorance of history and shameless willingness to spin commonly accepted facts to suit her left-wing ideology, this time a completely fabricated take on the American Revolution.
During a Friday appearance at the University of Chicago’s Institute of Politics with longtime Democrat strategist and Obama whisperer David Axelrod, AOC wildly claimed that America’s founding war to cast off the tyranny of the British monarchy was really a Marxian class warfare struggle against the “billionaires of their time.”

“The American Revolution was against the billionaires of their time, and we are declaring independence from such an extreme marriage of wealth and the state…,” she proclaimed, remarks that underscore the Democratic Party’s cynical exploitation of their gullible base and other low information types who view Ocasio-Cortez as a serious figure who is White House material despite ample evidence that she’s never been anything more than a glorified social media influencer.
The congresswoman’s historical revisionism was fact-checked by X users who did the job that Axelrod wouldn’t.
No, AOC, the American Revolution was NOT “against the billionaires of their time.”
It was against a large, distant, overly intrusive government that recognized no limits over its own authority to tax, regulate, and eat out the substance of the citizens it claimed to serve. https://t.co/OzQegCugsZ pic.twitter.com/F96FSwNHJ4

Thomas Sowell on AOC:
“As I listened to her, I was amazed that there seems to be no factual issue as far as she is concerned. She just pronounces things to be so and that’s the end of it.” https://t.co/qXchQwBwnl

The confidence with which she speaks false, ahistorical nonsense is always something.
There’s a certain, almost psychotic nature to it. https://t.co/wzC4ujvUF4

As for her presidential aspirations, the mouth that never shuts addressed those in a rambling non-answer to the longtime Democrat hack, suggesting that it was the Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post that started the rumor that she had an eye on the White House.
Axelrod: There are a lot of people who would like you to run for president in 2028. And there are others who would like you to run for the senate.
AOC: In this op-ed that Bezos paid for in The Washington Post, there was a veiled threat—it was the elite saying if you want this… pic.twitter.com/ZjyuXPVu1G

“And what’s funny about that is that they assume that my ambition is positional. They assume that my ambition is a title or a seat. And my ambition is way bigger than that, my ambition is to change this country,” Ocasio-Cortez said, according to a transcript. “Presidents come and go, Senate, House seats, elected officials, come and go, but single-payer healthcare is forever. A living wage is forever. Workers’ rights are forever. Women’s rights — all of that.”
“And so, anyways, a finer point to your question is that, when you aren’t attached, right?” AOC continued. “When you haven’t been, like, fantasizing about being this or that since the time you were seven years old, um, it is tremendously liberating, because I get to wake up every day and say, ‘How am I gonna meet the moment?'”
Truly the undisputed queen of B.S.
