Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

This is a deeply cynical & disgusting attack, @NancyMace. As the Capitol complex was stormed and people were being killed, none of us knew in the moment what areas were compromised. You previously told reporters yourself that you barricaded in your office, afraid you’d be hurt. https://t.co/7gW6yKO9gJ — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

Sen. @MarshaBlackburn, you were more than comfortable going on TV to disparage me as a House member, so your excuse here doesn’t add up. If you don’t support these racist, antisemitic conspiracy theories coming from your GOP House colleagues, why won’t you denounce them? — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

The sad thing about disinformation is that once the truth comes out, the damage has already been done. People have already been misled, radicalized & believe lies to a point where their hatred has brewed to violence. That’s what led to the 6th, and it’s happening right now. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

Honestly what message were Republicans trying to send by appointing to the Education and Labor Committee a woman who believes the Sandy Hook shooting was fake and mocks Parkland survivors? Individuals don’t get final say in cmtes. GOP leadership *picked* that assignment for her. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

This is all to say that survivors are watching. Loved ones are watching. They may share their story tomorrow, or in months or years. Or they may never. Speaking vitriol towards other survivors hurts you & your loved ones. Bc dismissers rob themselves of meaningful relationships. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

To be honest, every step of the way there were affirmers - @RepKatiePorter offering safety, @AyannaPressley pressing the pause button to acknowledge trauma, the courage of @Biaggi4NY, @yuhline, @CatalinaCruzNY & many others to tell their stories publicly helped me share mine. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

I really wrestled w telling my story, & had decided about a week ago that it probably wasn’t worth it. Then I had dinner with Sen. @Biaggi4NY. I told her everything because I knew she was a survivor. She helped me see the importance of sharing my story of the Capitol and trauma. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

You may not know that you know a survivor, but it’s highly likely that you do. Survivors of trauma are close to you. They are people you love & you may not know. Many decide whether their story is safe with someone by how they respond to other survivors. Don’t push them away. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

Y’all! Today is @AyannaPressley’s birthday! One of the greatest to ever do it. Brilliant leader. Fearless champion. Masterful legislator. Uplifter. Organizer. She is everything. Please join me in wishing her a happy birthday! 💐 https://t.co/DAGnhN5SYw — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

@JackPosobiec This isn’t a fact check at all. Your arrows aren’t accurate. They lie about where the mob stormed & place them further away than it was. You also fail to the convey *multiple* areas people were trying to storm. It wasn’t 1. You also failed to show tunnels. Poor job all around. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

It is also very damning and revealing that the GOP is now digging both heels in a discrediting campaign. It’s because they know they are implicated, so they’re pivoting to (again) the classic abuse playbook of “it’s not as bad as they say.” It was that bad. It’s actually worse. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

People were trying to rush and infiltrate our office buildings - that’s why we had to get evacuated in the first place. The attempts of attackers & publicly available communications show how they tried to gain access and share location info on finding members for physical harm. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

This is the latest manipulative take on the right. They are manipulating the fact that most people don’t know the layout the Capitol complex. We were all on the Capitol complex - the attack wasn’t just on the dome. The bombs Trump supporters planted surrounded our offices too. https://t.co/jI18e0XRrd — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

To survivors of any trauma who worry about being believed, or that their situation wasn’t “bad” enough or “too” bad, or fear being branded or deemed “manipulative” for telling the truth: I see you. Community is here for you. You are safe with me, & with all of us. You are loved! — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

Good morning everyone! 🌞 I’m teaching my once-a-term digital / social media session for members of Congress today. Help me help them! What do you wish you saw more of digitally from your elected officials? Who’s doing a great job that you think others can learn from? Lmk ⬇️ — PolitiTweet.org

@RavMABAY Thank you Rabbi 💜 — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

Republicans demanding that accountability is “divisive” and that we must “move on” from the attack on our country without recourse are taking a page from the playbooks of abusers. It’s sadly unsurprising. After 4 years of fealty to Trump, it seems many GOP have turned into him. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

Senator Ted Cruz deliberately and knowingly amplified specific lies fueling violent attackers. In doing so, he contributed to the carnage of Jan 6th. His actions since show that if given similar political opportunity, he would choose to do it again. He must resign. Texans agree. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

Thanks for making the space for me, and hope we can all make space for others to tell their stories in the weeks to come. And to those who wish to paper over their misdeeds by rushing us to all “move on” - we can move on when the individuals responsible are held to account. — PolitiTweet.org

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC

My story isn’t the only story, nor is it the central story of what happened on Jan 6th. It is just one story of many of those whose lives were endangered at the Capitol by the lies, threats, and violence fanned by the cowardice of people who chose personal gain above democracy. — PolitiTweet.org
