New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is one of the most radical left-wing Democrats in Congress.
Ocasio-Cortez is one of the loudest voices on the Left calling Marine veteran Daniel Penny a murderer.
But Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez just told Ron DeSantis the last seven words he ever expected to come from her lips.
On May 1, a homeless street performer named Jordan Neely boarded an F train in New York City’s subway station and proceeded to act “in a hostile and erratic manner” toward the other passengers.
Marine veteran Daniel Penny wrestled Neely to the ground after he threatened multiple passengers and placed him in a chokehold for several minutes until authorities arrived on the scene.
Neely died allegedly as a result of Penny’s chokehold, which sparked demands for Penny to be charged with murder from left-wing radicals like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
Neely has a long history of violent criminal activity.
But even though he acted in self defense, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg eventually caved in to pressure from the Left and charged Penny with manslaughter.
But conservatives across the country are rallying behind Penny, already donating more than $2.77 million to his legal defense fund through GiveSendGo.
Last week, Ron DeSantis called Daniel Penny a “good Samaritan” for his actions to protect others on the train.
“Vets look out for other vets,” DeSantis said. “What we can’t have in our society is inmates running the asylum.”
DeSantis praised Penny for “doing the right thing” and asked his supporters to contribute to his legal defense fund.
As expected, DeSantis referring to Penny as a “good Samaritan” infuriated left-wing radicals like Ocasio-Cortez, who previously referred to the incident as “a public murder.”
On Friday, Ocasio-Cortez attended Jordan Neely’s funeral.
Al Sharpton gave the eulogy at the funeral, which was held at the Mount Neboh Baptist Church in Harlem.
“Jordan was screaming for help,” Sharpton said. “We keep criminalizing people with mental illness,” he continued, before adding that “they don’t need abuse, they need help.”
After the funeral, reporters asked Ocasio-Cortez for her thoughts on DeSantis referring to Penny as a “good samaritan.”
“What do you think about Governor DeSantis calling Penny a good Samaritan?” one reporter asked.
But Ocasio-Cortez’s response caught everyone by surprise.
“I think he should read a Bible,” Ocasio-Cortez responded.
Alexandria-Cortez has launched a lot of attacks at Ron DeSantis over the past few years.
But Ron DeSantis would have never predicted that Ocasio-Cortez would recommend he “read a Bible.”
After all, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez worships at the altar of Big Government.
