AOC Gets Fact-Checked by Chris Cuomo on Pager Attack

The moment the IDF announced that it was blowing up terrorists with their pagers, you just knew SQUAD members were going to protest against Israel.

AOC, of course, led that charge, spewing all kinds of venom and mistruths about the attack.

Of all people, former CNN anchor Chris Cuomo just called her out for lying.

You Are Wrong

Cuomo has been relegated to NewsNation, a small cable news outlet that has a fraction of the audience he was used to on CNN.

Still, since being relegated to NewsNation, Cuomo has tried to be a better journalist.

To that point, he actually called out AOC for her statements about the attack.

AOC accused Isreal and PM Netanyahu of war crimes, but Cuomo pushed back and pushed back hard.

He recapped, “She [Ocasio-Cortez] started by accusing Israel of a war crime for what they did to members of Hezbollah in Beirut, and then, asking for an investigation, accused them of a war crime, asked for an investigation.

“Then she decided to get truthy and show that her claim that the exploding pagers were ‘clearly’ in violation of U.S. policy.

“‘This attack clearly unequivocally violates international humanitarian law, undermines U.S. efforts to prevent a wider conflict.'

“And then she said it violates U.S. policy. Clearly. Israel is not one of the United States, so they don’t follow our laws or rules. Second, if the representative was suggesting by that comparison that the United States should therefore not support Israel, good luck with that.

“And then, here’s what really bothers me about this salvo: She’s dead wrong. This is why you don’t accuse and then go in search of a crime.”

Then he went after AOC, explaining, “Here’s the part that she left out, oddly, the next section after the one she cited, ‘The use of mines, booby traps, other devices is subject to the same rules and principles that govern the use of other weapons to conduct attacks.'

“The rules include a prohibition against indiscriminate use of mines, booby traps and other devices. Indiscriminate. What does that mean? It means at all feasible precautions shall be taken to prevent civilians from the effects of mines, bobby traps and other devices, taking into account all circumstances ruling at the time, including humanitarian and military considerations.

“The war manual even specifies an example of when booby traps are not prohibited. It would not be prohibited to improvise a booby trap, for example, to retard an enemy advance. What does that mean? Could mean a lot of things.

“One of them certainly is a group of bloodthirsty terrorists coming from you. So, did she not read that part because she’s not a lawyer or not thorough or did intentionally not want to be fair? One is misfeasance, not doing your job well. The other is malfeasance, doing it badly on purpose.”

This gets so much better when you consider AOC just went on a rant about reining in the media regarding misinformation.

Well, who gets to decide what is the right information and what is the wrong information?

Give me a few hours and I can probably find hundreds of untrue statements made by Democrat members of Congress over the last week. Heck, I will even throw in the lies told by Republicans.

There is no way we can have people who lie on a daily basis responsible for monitoring the truth, not to mention that pesky little First Amendment that protects free speech, even if it is wrong.

If Democrats win this election, there is no telling what this country will look like on the other side of another four-year term.

Remember when people thought Biden could not do too much damage in four years just to get the bad orange man out of office?

Well, do you really want to risk that with Harris too?
