Incoming Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez blasted a recent article singling out the self-described Democratic Socialist Tuesday; saying the piece was simply “gossip that masquerades as reporting.”
“One disappointment about DC is the gossip that masquerades as ‘reporting.’ This story has: – Not a SINGLE named or verifiable source – Only ONE on-the-record comment, which is a denial. My dad had a name for junk articles like this: ‘Birdcage lining,'” she tweeted.

Cortez made national headlines earlier this month when she erroneously claimed Pentagon accounting errors could largely finance her ‘Medicare for All’ proposal; stating the universal healthcare program would actually save the US over $5 trillion.
