"I am a daughter, too." Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez gives brilliant speech about hateful speech directed at women

A few days ago, a fellow Congress member called U.S. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez "A Fucking Bitch." Then, yesterday, he (Ted Yolo), went on tv and made a fake apology. At this point, Ocasio-Cortez had enough with this nonsense, and gave this powerful, measured speech that you truly must not miss. Every word is electrifying and true. Please enjoy!

Was that the full speech? Seemed to end a bit abruptly.

Even if I do not like her ideological positions on some things, I appreciate her publicly calling out such abusive and demeaning language used against her and other women.

Gravitas ? Really? I don't get that from her at all. She's a show- off. That oh woe is me , I had to work as a waitress and wear thrift shop dresses speech is ridiculously over- egged.

I was quoting from an article - the words and sentiments may not be mine ....

Oh, yes - I meant she was laying it on a little thick!

By her own reasoning, the women who are threatened with rape, sucking dick, violence and called much worse things than a ‘fucking bitch’ on Twitter are also someone’s daughters and wives.
She still caters and supports the trans agenda knowing this.
I can’t believe she can stand up there, give that amazing speech and reconcile it with her own views.
This is why the left come across as lecturing hypocrites.
