MEGYN KELLY (HOST): Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is trying to downplay the carnage woke ideology played in American society. That's not going to happen here, OK? She's not going to get away with that. I am so angry about her ridiculous attempt to just dismiss the pain she led a movement to cause on — oh, you know, we were just temporarily nuts, bye. No. No. I'm sorry, madam. Nice try right before the next presidential campaign gets underway. It's a no.

You were the leader in causing death and destruction across our country with your bizarre views on police and so-called trans children. Kids were sterilized. They had body parts chopped off. Black Americans who are living in poor areas of major metropolitan cities are dead because of your insane, woke, defund-the-police policies. F you if you think you can dismiss it with your little giggle, with your made-up face on a Sunday show saying woke one was crazy. Hard pass on your attempt to pass the buck that way. We'll get into exactly what she did and what she said. 

This is a 2028 play, for sure. She's trying to moderate to the middle. She's refusing now to rule out that she might run. She might go for Senate first. I I can't say that that's not possible. But this bitch thinks she's going to be president, and she's trying to position herself from a place that she could launch it. 

And there is zero chance anybody who would oppose AOC should let her off the hook this easily. Ha-ha-ha-ha, woke one was crazy. You led it. You led it, madam. Unlike your other socialist comrade, Bernie Sanders, who never much got into the cultural woke wars. He has this staunch populist economic message, but doesn't buy into this other shit. 

You led it. You did. It's in writing. You're all over the record on it. You will not be permitted to dismiss it and disown it so cavalierly without a full mea culpa, an explanation of how you realized how wrong you were, and an apology to the millions you harmed by foisting this madness into their classrooms and their dorm rooms and their places of employment and their communities, which literally led some into the funeral parlor. 

I just — I'm disgusted by what I saw on the Sunday show. I just honestly can't believe my eyes.
