Ocasio-Cortez responded by lashing out at Fetterman, and appeared to take a shot at his mental fitness for office, calling him “confused,” which comes after he suffered a serious stroke in 2022 and has had lingering issues related to speech and hearing ever since.

“I understand you likely would not have stood up for your colleague and seem to be confused about racism and misogyny being a ‘both sides’ issue,” AOC posted. “But I stand up to bullies, instead of becoming one.”
“And to the women of Pennsylvania: I’d stand up for you too,” she continued. “Enjoy your Friday.”
