This is exactly what Alexandria predicted would happen in response to sharing her story about the events of January 6.
It happens all too often in the aftermath of trauma or abuse when we come forward and tell our stories.
Right-wing media and politicians didn’t waste a minute misrepresenting the facts and accusing Alexandria of ‘overreacting’ or ‘exaggerating’. It’s unacceptable, and yet not at all surprising.
If you have Alexandria’s back, please chip in (DELETED) to help us fight back against these attacks and show the GOP that their lies only fuel our determination.
Many people – survivors especially – will recognize these phrases and attempts to silence our truths to absolve others of their accountability. And there are real consequences.
How many veterans, Capitol Police officers, and other survivors are watching and will stay quiet or not get the care they need for fear that their voices will be denied or minimized?
But we will not be silenced. We’re fed up and their attempts to discredit Alexandria and her experience won’t work.
Together we can raise a ton of grassroots donations today and let Alexandria know we are here for her.
We see you.
–Team AOC
So Where were you, and did you make up the story AOC?
