Watch what happens when Tucker Carlson steps out of the conservative bubble and brings on an @AOC policy adviser who debunks all the conservative media lies straight to his face (spoiler: it doesn't go great for Tucker) pic.twitter.com/joDNXBBB7G

It was on her website, was roundly mocked and then she pulled it down. Now they’re trying to claim she never said that? Yikes.
Via Twitchy:
Andrew Lawrence from Media Matters flagged this clip from Tucker Carlson’s show Friday night that featured an interview with Robert Hockett, a policy adviser for Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
Lawrence says Hockett “debunks all the conservative media lies straight to [Carlson’s] face,” but what actually happened is that it was Hockett who lied to Carlson.
The clip starts off with Carlson asking about the section from the FAQ released by Ocasio-Cortez on the Green New Deal that guarantees “Economic security to all who are unable or unwilling to work.” Here’s a screenshot of the now-deleted page from her website:
This really is Stalinesque, if you pull it down, we can pretend it never happened…
Alternate route to be crystal clear on the source URL:
1. Google "Economic security to all who are unable or unwilling to work"
2. Select cached version of "Green New Deal FAQ | Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez"
3. Marvel at Tucker's credulity.
Pure gaslighting. pic.twitter.com/enUm2L44mN
