Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Puts Elon Musk In His Place With Perfectly Patronizing Reminder

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) just toasted Elon Musk with a few of his own words.

On Thursday, AOC subtly dissed the tech CEO while explaining why over half of the Democratic congressional caucus was absent from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address on Capitol Hill the day prior.

“Just so we’re clear, Netanyahu has lost so many people that he is addressing just a fraction of Congress,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote in response to an X post from Axios reporter Andrew Solender, which tallied how many Democrats skipped the speech.

Musk, who was one of the non-legislators who was invited to attend Netanyahu’s speech on Wednesday, then found his way into AOC’s replies.

“The Democratic Party has become openly & boldly antisemitic,” he alleged.

The progressive lawmaker thought Musk’s accusation was rich, considering the billionaire’s well-documented history of bigoted remarks.

Clapping back, she posted a screenshot of a Wall Street Journal article about Musk defending an antisemitic social media post he once made, claiming Jewish people have a “dialectical hatred” of white people, as “the truth.”

“Hmm,” she wrote, along with a thinking face emoji. “Sometimes being quiet is free and good for you.”



The exchange was far from the first time Ocasio-Cortez has called Musk out for his hypocrisy.

Back in March, after the South African-born businessman baselessly accused Democrats of trying to “import voters,” she reminded him, “You’re literally an immigrant.”
