Andy Barr is the one who needs to apologize
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has done nothing to hurt Kentucky or Kentuckians.
Candy Barr, however, has done nothing in Congress BUT hurt Kentucky and Kentuckians with every suck-up vote supporting the Pumpkin Traitor and his efforts to impoverish, imprison and immiserate every non-male, non-white, non-christian, non-straight, non-rich resident of the Commonwealth.
Not to mention Barr and every repug lying non-stop about everything progressive Democrats say and do.
Rep. Ocasio-Cortez is fighting for economic, environmental and healthcare legislation that will lift Kentucky out of its repug-created morass of lethal dependence on coal, poverty and corruption.
Shame on you, Candy. If AOC deigns to notice your stupidity, she might tweet a response that will make you look even more foolish than you are.
Rep. Ocasio-Cortez, you are welcome in Kentucky any time. Come for Derby! And bring your friends Reps. Pressley, Tlaib, Haaland and Omar with you.
There are lots of progressives in Kentucky. We'll show you horse country and have fun pointing and laughing at the silly repugs.
From the Herald:
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is welcome to come to Kentucky and tour a coal mine, but first she needs to apologize, says Rep. Andy Barr.
Barr, a Kentucky Republican, wants Ocasio-Cortez to offer a mea culpa to “our colleague and patriot to our country” Rep. Dan Crenshaw, a Texas Republican, before she accepts Barr’s invitation to tour a Kentucky coal mine.
In a letter Friday to the New York Democrat, Barr said her recent comments about Crenshaw “demonstrate a lack of civility that is becoming far too common in the U.S. House of Representatives.”
An apology won’t be forthcoming, a spokesman for the congresswoman said Friday.

“We’re very proud and thankful for (Crenshaw’s) service, but what we are talking about is his fanning the flames of hate,” said Corbin Trent, a spokesman for Ocasio-Cortez.
He added, “Luckily, we still have open borders with Kentucky. We don’t need Congressman Barr to meet with coal miners and have a town hall, though we’d love his participation if we do.”
