New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez thought she executed a political master stroke.
But instead, what Ocasio-Cortez did just blew up in her face big time.
And Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez got caught on camera doing this humiliating thing.
Democrats are still lashing out at the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization striking down Roe v. Wade.
Left-wing voters continue to grow frustrated and angry that Joe Biden cannot put together a scheme to end run the Court’s decision and reimpose abortion-on-demand in all 50 states.
Ocasio-Cortez and a group of other pro-abortion Democrats tried to show their base they were fighting to the bitter end and risking their freedom by staging a protest at the Supreme Court.
The protest was supposed to show Democrats risking arrest to fight for the pro-abortion cause, as Ocasio-Cortez posted video of the police allegedly leading her away in handcuffs.
However, the video showed that Ocasio-Cortez put her hands behind her back merely pretending to be handcuffed as she raised her arm to pump her fist at the pro-abortion lunatics joining the protest.
Hilarious. Video by @DouglasKBlair shows AOC feigning a walk of fame with hands "tied" behind her back… only it's fake. She's NOT handcuffed and she raises her fist in defiance at 10 secs in.pic.twitter.com/5NHkAjzX3A

Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar was another one who faked being arrested for the cameras.

In total, around 18 Democrats were supposedly “arrested.”
But it was all a big joke, as the Democrats took selfies with cops to show it was all a publicity stunt.
in lieu of mugshots, members of congress arrested are being asked to pose with an officer and their ID for a photo. Many are treating these like a fun celebration, selfies with friendly officers. Here’s @RepKClark taking hers. pic.twitter.com/k917IUndtt

When the Court first overturned Roe v. Wade, Democrats thought it would reset the Midterm election dynamic.
But the fact that Ocasio-Cortez and her fellow Democrats had to fake an arrest to try and generate media headlines only shows how badly they were mistaken.
