AOC on IG live talking about her experience at the Capitol Insurrection on Jan 6 right now and starts by talking about the food service workers afraid for their lives and the many Black and brown custodians who had to clean up after white supremacists.
WOW: AOC shared that she's a survivor of sexual assault before going on to say that the Republicans pushing for Americans to "move on" from the Capital Insurrection is the language of abusers: "Can you just forget about this so we can do it again."
AOC is telling 146,000 people what it felt like to hide in her bathroom after white supremacists broke into her office.

They were screaming, "Where is she? Where is she?"

"I thought I was going to die."
