ICYMI – This is the moment that the false narrative of the terrible events at that were orchestrated at the Capitol on January 6th began to unravel … QUICKLY…
Well, well, well…What do you know? All those tales about how her life was in danger and that Ted Cruz almost got her killed and her claim that rioters were hunting her down were all lies.
At the time the rioters were in the Capitol, AOC was in her office as she has already admitted. But, her office is in the Cannon Building, still inside the Capitol complex, but some distance from the Capitol Rotunda and House Chambers.
She wasn’t even in the same building with the rioters.
Makes me doubt her story about being a #MeToo victim as well. AOC’s office is two doors down from Nancy Mace’s and Mace confirms that no rioters ever ended up in their building.
That story she told about having to hide in her bathroom is full of crap so I guess she was in the right place for it. It looks like she owes Ted Cruz a major apology.
Here is the story she told:
Newsweek reported:
Ocasio-Cortez said that rioters actually entered her office, forcing her to take refuge inside her bathroom after her legislative director Geraldo Bonilla-Chavez told her to “hide, hide, run and hide.”
“And so I run back into my office,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “I slam my door. There’s another kind of like back area to my office, and I open it, and there’s a closet and a bathroom. And I jump into my bathroom.”
Ocasio-Cortez said was hiding behind the door “and then I just start to hear these yells of, ‘Where is she?’”
As members of the mob banged against the door, Ocasio-Cortez believed “this was the moment where I thought everything was over.”
“And the weird thing about moments like these is that you lose all sense of time,” Ocasio-Cortez continued. “In retrospect, maybe it was 4 seconds. Maybe it was 5 seconds, maybe it was 10 seconds. Maybe it was one second, I don’t know. It felt like my brain was able to have so many thoughts.”
“In between the screams and the yells,” Ocasio-Cortez added, “I mean, I thought I was going to die.”
.@AOC made clear she didn’t know who was at her door. Breathless attempts by media to fan fictitious news flames are dangerous.
My office is 2 doors down. Insurrectionists never stormed our hallway. Egregious doesn’t even begin to cover it. Is there nothing MSM won’t politicize? pic.twitter.com/Tl1GiPSOft

RedState reported:
AOC wasn’t even in the Capitol building where all the action was going down. If she was in her office, she was in the Cannon Building which is nearby, but a different building. But of course, many didn’t get the logistics and just assumed that she was in the Capitol building.
According to Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), who has an office in the same hall as AOC, two doors away, there were never any rioters in their hall so there was never any physical danger from rioters coming in at any point.
