Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., faced mounting criticism Thursday for feuding with freshman colleague Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, over his response to domestic terrorism.

The dustup began after Crenshaw reacted to comments made by Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., who had been criticized for characterizing the 9/11 terrorist attacks as “some people did something.”

“First Member of Congress to ever describe terrorists who killed thousands of Americans on 9/11 as ‘some people who did something.’ Unbelievable,” Crenshaw tweeted.

That prompted Ocasio-Cortez to defend her Minnesota ally, going after the Texas congressman for not co-sponsoring the 9/11 Victim’s Compensation Fund.

“In 2018, right-wing extremists were behind almost ALL US domestic terrorist killings. Why don’t you go do something about that?” Ocasio-Cortez told Crenshaw.

That sparked an avalanche of outrage, many pointing to Crenshaw’s service as a Navy SEAL in the war in Afghanistan as well as his sacrifice.

Crenshaw did not immediately respond.

Pretty sure he's made it known how he feels about terrorism, domestic or otherwise.

Was going to say...this is a hill she chooses to die on? Fighting a vet with his background and isn't he in a chair and has the eye patch as the result from being awarded the Purple Heart?



I'm envisioning a very small ant making a bunch of very small unintelligible noises.... and a HUGE boot coming down.

Eye patch, yes. He lost his eye in an IED explosion I believe and if I remember what I read about it, he came close to losing sight in both eyes, but ended up just losing the one eye. He's not in a wheelchair though.
