AOC Responds: 'Unmitigated Racism' From 'White Supremacist Sympathizer' Tucker Carlson is Why I Don'

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) accused Fox News host Tucker Carlson of being a “white supremacist sympathizer” on Wednesday, after a a guest on Carlson’s show claimed Ocasio-Cortez’s district is dirty because it’s “one of the least American districts in the country.”

After being asked by Carlson last night why Ocasio-Cortez’s district isn’t very clean, City Journal associate editor Seth Barron replied, “Well part of the reason is because her district is actually one of the least American districts in the country, and by that I don’t mean that it’s not part of America, but it’s occupied by relatively few American citizens. A very high percentage of her district is in fact illegal aliens.”

“Now the way they inhabit housing there is such that they live in a lot of illegal spaces like basements, and many people live there, so they wind up producing a lot of garbage that the landlords don’t want thrown out normally,” he continued. “Hence you wind up with a lot of garbage on the streets, you have illegal food vendors pouring their pig grease into the gutters.”

Tucker Carlson is no mere 'White Supremacist Sympathizer' , he is an actual white supremacist.

With a polyglot mixture of languages that’s delightful to hear.

He is such a failure in life that he couldn’t even make it to being a bully. Poor guy probably had all the girls make him cry too. Really, just kind of a peer reject for being the poison ivy in any group.
