The Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Golden Shovel Award goes to the inspirer herself
Challenged by Senator Cruz, OCA beclowns herself
The spat began Thursday when Ocasio-Cortez criticized President Donald Trump for putting Vice President Mike Pence in charge of the task force responding to Coronavirus. Cruz responded by asking the self-proclaimed oracle of science “Three scientific questions:
What exactly is a Y chromosome?
At what age of gestation does science tell us that an unborn child feels physical pain?”
Of the 195 countries on planet Earth, which country produced the greatest total reduction in CO2 emissions in 2019?
Cortez didn’t answer the questions, she deflected:
“Two double-shots of espresso and a jigger of rum, you achieve … well, something!”
So.
Turns out, “Intel global finalist” was second prize in a high school science fair.
A “multi-year intern for Ted Kenndy was a summer gig for the champion of women and integrity while he was out of action from terminal brain cancer.
A “Former educational director for national organization” turns out to be (per Wikipedia), “an educational director for the 2017 Northeast Collegiate World Series, for the National Hispanic Institute”.
And while a B-level graduate of BU, might have been a significant achievement when John Silber ran the place, it meant nothing by 2011, when OCA received her social promotion. As her own mouth makes so clear, she managed to graduate with a degree in economics while knowing nothing about the subject matter.
And she has yet to answer Cruz’s question.
