Recently, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) went on an online rant making a odd comparison about Eliis Island.
AOC is taking a lot of heat from New Yorkers and local elected officials over the border crisis.
Conservative online commentator Ashley St. Clair mocked AOC on X (formerly Twitter) for using “girl math.”
“Girl math is saying immigrants coming legally through Ellis Island is the same as 3 million undocumented migrants pouring through our border and costing NYC $1,000,000,000 to house migrants for free in hotels,” Ashely wrote, posting the video.

It’s pretty clear that AOC doesn’t understand the difference between people legally going through an immigration checkpoint and illegally crossing a border.
Elon happened to see the post by St. Clair adding that AOC is “not that smart.”

AOC flipped out.
“I wasn’t born rich and became the youngest woman in American history to be elected to Congress,” Ocasio-Cortez railed. “Then I investigated Cohen, authored the largest FEMA funeral assistance program in history and led creation of a US Climate Corps to create tens of thousands of new jobs. Stay mad.”

AOC may not have been born Musk rich but she grew up in Westchester and her dad was an architect that ran his own firm. Pelosi was once quoting saying that a glass of water with a “D” on it could win AOC’s district.
““It wasn’t in districts like mine, or Alexandria’s [Ocasio-Cortez in New York]. However, she’s a wonderful member of Congress — I think all of our colleagues will attest. But those are districts that are solidly Democratic, this glass of water would win with a D next to it in those districts — and not to diminish the exuberance and the personality and the rest of Alexandria and the other members, but when I said three, we’re talking about three that we’re getting a good deal of press on it,” Pelosi said.
