Rep. AOC claims she was not pretending to be in handcuffs when she was arrested Tuesday at a pro-abortion rights protest outside the Supreme Court.
The congresswoman crossed her arms behind her back as she was escorted away in a moment caught on video, prompting critics to accuse her of making believe she had been placed in handcuffs for a photo-op, but she argued that this was the proper thing to do."No faking here," Ocasio-Cortez said in a tweet Wednesday."Putting your hands behind your back is a best practice while detained, handcuffed or not, to avoid escalating charges like resisting arrest.
But given how you lied about a fellow rape survivor for “points,” as you put it to me, I don’t expect much else from you. pic.twitter.com/lUc1TPS21D
