Description
According to Republican Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wasn’t even in the U.S. Capitol building when it was breached on January 6th despite previous claims. Mace’s office is two doors down from Ocasio-Cortez’s. On Jan. 6, Mace tweeted that she left the Cannon Building where her office was located: “Just evacuated my office in Cannon due to a nearby thereat,” she wrote. “Now we’re seeing protesters assaulting Capitol Police.” 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.
“[Ocasio-Cortez] made clear she didn’t know who was at her door,” she wrote, sharing a report from Newsweek. “Breathless attempts by media to fan fictitious news flames are dangerous";“My office is 2 doors down,” Mace said. “Insurrectionists never stormed our hallway. Egregious doesn’t even begin to cover it.”
