Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is among lefties who did not like the New York Post’s cover hammering Rep. Ilhan Omar for her comments about 9/11:

I’m not going to quote the NY Post’s horrifying, hateful cover. Here’s 1 fact: @IlhanMN is a cosponsor of the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund. She‘s done more for 9/11 families than the GOP who won’t even support healthcare for 1st responders- yet are happy to weaponize her faith. — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) April 11, 2019

And Rep. Ocasio-Cortez has followed that up with action. Step aside, Amazon, because AOC has her sights set on getting rid of more jobs in her state:

Two years ago, Bodega owners across NYC (& cheered by neighbors)shut their shops citywide to protest Trump’s #MuslimBan. Today, that same community is banding together to reject sales of the NY Post at bodegas citywide. This is what real unity (& NYC solidarity) looks like ⬇️ https://t.co/mj8vtA4Pv5 — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) April 13, 2019

The mainstream media who proclaim that an attack on one journalist is an attack on all journalists will immediately issue statements denouncing AOC for giving an assist to this boycott effort, right?

Something something attack on the free press something something https://t.co/0Cx5nQLvOc — Chris Hynes (@realchrishynes) April 13, 2019

Wow a politician encouraging shutting down the press she doesn't like. When Trump does this he's called a dictator. What should we call @AOC? https://t.co/h3yGh3FCsc — Dan Goldwasser (@dgoldwas) April 13, 2019

Maybe the rest of the media doesn’t have any energy left after protesting the Newseum selling “Fake News” shirts.

Soooo…..we're cool with this call to put local journalists out of work? That's a thing no one gets mad about now? https://t.co/Qb4swtFb7Y — Drew McCoy (@_Drew_McCoy_) April 13, 2019

Remember this next time partisan Democrats claim to be defenders of a free press against the supposed threats to it made by the President. https://t.co/WsIllrOsfY — D.E. (@tkdylan) April 13, 2019

They won’t remember it.

Some attacks on a free press by government officials are better than others. https://t.co/5JT2mxikXx — Stephen Miller (@redsteeze) April 13, 2019

Maybe CNN’s chief defender of all media not called “Fox News” can help:

A Member of Congress calling for censorship in the American Media. Wonder if @brianstelter will take a stern tone to her? pic.twitter.com/bZLJX7jI1N — Norma Blackstone (@65Blackstone) April 13, 2019

We’ll wait for that to happen. #Crickets
