====Refusal to compromise====
When Republican Senator [[Ted Cruz]] attempted to compromise with the Democrats by agreeing with Ocasio-Cortez on a recent populist uprising by small business investors, Ocasio-Cortez reacted badly to Cruz, falsely accusing him of "attempted murder" because of his challenge of [[Democrat election fraud]] and demanding that he resign his Senate seat, then following that with falsely accusing him of being responsible for the recent suicide of a [[Capitol Police]] officer in the wake of the [[2021 Capitol riot]].<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/01/wow-ted-cruz-reaches-hand-across-aisle-agree-ocasio-cortez-populist-investor-uprising-aoc-bites-off-head-accuses-attempted-murder-tells-resign/ WOW!

====Congressional failure====
Ocasio-Cortez was recently ranked as one of the least effective Democrat lawmakers in Congress in a report by the Center for Effective Lawmaking, which rated her 230th out of 240 House Democrats as well as last among the 19 Democrat lawmakers from New York.<ref>[https://www.oann.com/rep-ocasio-cortez-ranked-one-of-the-least-effective-dem-lawmakers/ Rep. Ocasio-Cortez Ranked One Of The Least Effective Dem Lawmakers]</ref> According to the report, out of 21 bills introduced by AOC during her first congressional term, none of them saw any action in committees or were voted on.
