When two mosques in New Zealand were attacked last month and 50 worshipers were murdered, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez went on a twitter rampage firing off 14 tweets about the shootings. She mocked “thoughts and prayers” offered to the victims and attacked the NRA.
Following the shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue she again went ballistic, not waiting for the bodies to cool before politicizing the tragedy
There was another tragedy which left AOC uncharacteristically mute- the carnage in Sri Lanka.
Ocasio-Cortez’s reaction differs starkly compared with the aftermath of the terror attack in New Zealand last month, where 50 Muslims were brutally gunned down by a white supremacist.
Following the attack in New Zealand, Ocasio-Cortez tweeted numerous times, seizing on the terror attack to criticize the Trump administration and propose tougher gun control measures in the U.S.
“At 1st I thought of saying, ‘Imagine being told your house of faith isn’t safe anymore.’ But I couldn’t say ‘imagine.’ Because of Charleston. Pittsburgh. Sutherland Springs. What good are your thoughts & prayers when they don’t even keep the pews safe?” one of her tweets read.
Fact:@AOC tweeted about the horrific tragedy in New Zealand 14 times
She tweeted about the attack on Christians in Sri Lanka zero times
Why?

Twitter-obsessed @AOC posted 14 times about the terror attack on Muslims in New Zealand, but has posted nothing about the terror attack on Christians by Muslim extremists in Sri Lanka.

What do the attacks in New Zealand and Pittsburgh have in common?
White supremacists.
They’re an easy target for AOC. The perpetrators in Sri Lanka? ISIS has taken credit for the attacks.
Muslims.
Why would AOC be leery of hammering ISIS?
Because they’re Muslims.
Why would AOC hesitate?
Her BFF’s in Congress.
Here’s AOC with the representative from ISIS
And here’s AOC with the representative from Hamas.
No disenfranchising her pals. No sir.
‘Nuff said.
