(SNews) – Radical Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has called for Tucker Carlson and other reporters critical of the Democrats to be banned from TV by the federal government.
During an interview with Democrat President Joe Biden’s former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on MSNBC, AOC deceitfully claimed that Carlson and “other folks on Fox” are inciting “violence.”
“Federal regulation, in terms of what’s allowed on air and what isn’t,” AOC demanded as Psaki nodded along in agreement.
“And when you look at what Tucker Carlson and what of these other folks on Fox do, it is very very clearly incitement of violence, very clearly incitement of violence and that is the line that we have to be willing to contend with,” she said.

However, AOC failed to provide a single example of the alleged “incitement of violence,” despite claiming that Carlson and his colleagues at Fox News are “very very clearly” guilty of it.
In response to a viral video of AOC’s comments, Twitter users fired back by noting that AOC simply wants to silence those who are critical of the Democrats’ agenda.
“Their goal is the criminalization of political opposition,” said Auron MacIntyre.
“Anyone who tells you otherwise is a liar or a fool.”
