Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Says House GOP Has ‘Legitimate White Supremacist Sympathizers’
Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has accused House Republicans of kowtowing to white supremacist groups in their refusal to back consequences for the storming of the Capitol earlier this month by a far-right, pro-President Donald Trump mob bent on overturning the election results.
Speaking with MSNBC‘s Chris Hayes on Wednesday, Ocasio-Cortez suggested the House GOP is turning into “something much more nefarious” having been stripped of their leader in the White House, and are now turning to white supremacist organizations “as a political tool.”
