As we told you earlier, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was fit to be tied after Nancy Pelosi caved and said the House would vote to pass a Senate bill containing emergency border funding. AOC was among House Dems blaming Mitch McConnell:

Under no circumstances should the House vote for a McConnell-only bill w/ no negotiation with Democrats. Hell no. That’s an abdication of power we should refuse to accept. They will keep hurting kids if we do. — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) June 27, 2019

Fox News congressional reporter Chad Pergram smacked down claims like that with one reality checking tweet:

Mulitple Dems saying the House has to accept the Senate bill because of “Mitch McConnell.” Never mind that the Senate ok’d the Senate border bill 84-8, the bill got out of the Appropriations Committee 30-1 and Leahy wrote the bill in tandem with Senate Apps Chair Shelby — Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) June 27, 2019

In other words, many House Dems including AOC are wrong again (not that they don’t know it).
