WASHINGTON, DC—Over a year after the War of January 6th, US Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has issued a statement saying she was “nearly murdered” in a new attack on the Capitol steps.

The incident took place yesterday where a man dressed in “Make America Great Again” hats threw a noose around Ocasio-Cortez’s neck and screamed, “This is MAGA Country!”

Ocasio-Cortez posed the video on Twitter of the harrowing experience:

Here is a video he posted of the incident. I was actually walking over to deck him because if no one will protect us then I’ll do it myself but I needed to catch a vote more than a case today pic.twitter.com/RdwCNBDIBb

Ocasio-Cortez was immediately admitted to Walter Reed Hospital with burn wounds and a dangerously inflated ego.

“I heard the people shouting. They were coming after me. They were going to kill me,” Ocasio-Cortez said of the Capitol Steps Attacker, holding back tears.

Ocasio-Cortez said that the attacker was trying to kill her because, “they couldn’t date me.”
