Radical leftist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, or AOC as she is known on the internet, took issue with a Christmas photo posted by GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert, calling her out on Twitter. The interaction didn’t end well for the radical “Squad” member.
“The Boeberts have your six, @RepThomasMassie! (No spare ammo for you, though),” the GOP congresswoman tweeted, sharing a picture of herself with her sons, all packing heat in front of a beautiful Christmas tree.

Of course, Rep. Ocasio-Cortez couldn’t just let people post in peace without chiming in with a snarky comment.
“Tell me again where Christ said ‘use the commemoration of my birth to flex violent weapons for personal political gain’? lol @ all the years Republicans spent on cultural hysteria of society ‘erasing Christmas and it’s meaning’ when they’re doing that fine all on their own,” she responded.

In a second tweet, AOC added what she thought was another snarky comment: “When you pose in front of a Christmas Tree and can name all those guns but can’t name the gifts of the Wise Men.”

AOC was quickly overwhelmed with responses from Christians wondering why she all of a sudden switched to “Bible trivia” with a Christian member of Congress when she’s an elected representative who can’t even name the three branches of government.
“You can’t even name the 3 branches of government,” one Twitter user wrote. Many others wrote similar tweets, with some asking her if she could answer a single question about the Bible without using Google.

Boebert had a more personal response.
Rep. Ocasio-Cortez “uses her position as a Congresswoman to attack my boys with their Christmas presents. Not a good look, Sandy…” she tweeted.
