Maybe they were burying the hatchet.
Cameras caught progressive darling Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) chatting cordially with far-right firebrand Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) during Tuesday’s marathon House speaker vote — 14 months after Gosar was censured and stripped of his committee assignments for attacking the “Squad” member.
Gosar had tweeted a video on Nov. 7, 2021 depicting himself as an anime character assassinating AOC and charging President Biden.
In response, the House voted to formally rebuke Gosar as Ocasio-Cortez accused him of promoting “racist misogyny.”
