This is absolutely hilarious.
An official complaint has been filed against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, alleging she knowingly lied against Chaya Raichik (Libs of TikTok).
The complaint stated that Ocasio-Cortez “recklessly blamed Ms. Raichik and her tweet for the actions of other people reacting to Boston Children’s Hospital’s video, claiming that it fueled threats and harassment towards the hospital and its staff and incited violence against ‘trans and LGBT people.’”
It was AOC who, on the record, claimed that Raichik had caused a scare at Boston Children’s Hospital. She made the claims well after the fact it was discovered to be leftist disinformation.
From Fox News:
The nine-page complaint defends Raichik’s view that Boston Children’s Hospital performs gender affirming hysterectomies on young girls. Aside from being the “premier pediatric hospital,” Heritage noted that the hospital’s website notes that it performs gender affirmation surgery to “eligible adolescents,” and that the Journal of Clinical Medicine has documented that the hospital has “performed 65 double-mastectomies on minors over the course of three years.”
Other material collected by Heritage shows that gender affirmation surgery has been performed on patients as young as 15, and that the hospital “quietly changed its website to reflect that ‘genital surgeries are only performed on patients age 18 and older.”
“Rep. Ocasio-Cortez’s accusation that the tweet contained false information is itself outrightly false on its face,” Heritage argued. “Rep. Ocasio-Cortez knowingly made this allegation in bad faith.”
It added that Ocasio-Cortez “recklessly blamed Ms. Raichik and her tweet for the actions of other people reacting to Boston Children’s Hospital’s video, claiming that it fueled threats and harassment towards the hospital and its staff and incited violence against ‘trans and LGBT people.’”Heritage argued that the Office of Congressional Ethics should reprimand Ocasio-Cortez, remind lawmakers they have a duty to refrain from making false accusations, strike the accusations from the record and press Ocasio-Cortez to apologize to Raichik.
When AOC was served with the ethics complaint, she DID NOT take it well.
