Ocasio-Cortez makes embarrassing mistake while trying to dunk on Republicans about the migrant crisis

Socialist Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made an embarrassing mistake when she posted a video of herself berating a politician about the migrant crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border.

On Wednesday, Ocasio-Cortez posted a video in which she debated a woman, whom she identified as a Republican, during a congressional hearing.

"Republicans have no solutions for immigration," she posted.

Republicans have no solutions for immigration.

"No solutions here. No ideas here. But Democrats, we're authorizing 500,000 work permits so people can get on their feet and support themselves," said Ocasio-Cortez in the video she posted. "Democrats, we're proposing comprehensive immigration reform."

While the clip does indeed show her interlocutor being stumped by questions about immigration, Ocasio-Cortez incorrectly identified her as a Republican, when Jaime Williams is a Democrat member of the New York State Assembly.

Ocasio-Cortez was mocked and ridiculed over the misleading video.

"The person AOC is lecturing in this clip is not even a Republican. She is NY Assembly Member Jaime Williams, a Democrat from Brooklyn… Williams was objecting to spending $27 million of taxpayer money to house 2,000+ illegal migrants in her district. But go off clown," read one response.
