https://thehill.com/homenews/media/419730-wapost-fact-checker-gives-ocasio-cortez-four-pinocchios-for-pentagon-claim
The Washington Post "fact checker" column awarded Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) "four Pinocchios" on Tuesday after she said in a tweet that a "$21 trillion mistake" by the Pentagon could have paid for about two-thirds the cost of a Medicare for all bill. --- Do you accept the charges? ...

This woman is getting grilled over everything and she hasn't even been sworn in yet. I hope she never stops.

Interesting that her mistake is more concerning for some than the fact that the military lost track of over $21 trillion over 17 years(that's more than a trillion dollars per year). Where did it go? Did it exist? What other errors did they make that we're not even aware of?

Sure. So how many times are you guys gonna post about this? I learned that she was being overzealous the first time this was posted here.

Sometimes her inexperience shows. She also mangled an interview or two in a similar way, leading up to the election. Over all though, I'm extremely impressed with her. She ran her primary like a total pro and she's deftly handling the obsessive amount of criticism coming at her from the Right. I wish I agreed more with her on policy, because I think she might lead the Democratic Party some day.

It would be interesting if she keeps pulling a Trump by never apologizing and keep stating things that support her political causes regardless if the facts are true or not. Seems to work with Trump. He now lies all the time (much worse than Ocasio-Cortez) and no one does anything about it.

This woman is basically the left's Trump In a political strategy she is the closest analog to Trump. Always attacking and never backing down. If she starts apologizing I bet her influence is going to significantly go down. --- We all live in a Yellow SUV! a Yellow SUV! ... Copied to Clipboard!

She's no where near as bad cmon. Attitude, no. But she's just as blatantly wrong as Trump about a large amount of things yet pushes forwards with them anyways. I guess you could argue that she actually believes in what she stands for rather than Trump who's just in it for his ego. --- A Beach in Winter ... Copied to Clipboard!

good on the WP for calling out someone on the left for misrepresenting facts Honestly if OC wants to be more prolific in politics than she better up her game if she wants to play a larger role. This if anything is a shot in the arm to get her to be better at "politics" Secondly, WP is just going to casually drop that the Pentagon has "lost" over 21 TRILLION DOLLARS like its nothing. I feel like the bigger story is ignored here. --- "Cyberspace is - or can be - a good, friendly and egalitarian place to meet." - Douglas Adams ... Copied to Clipboard!
