Here’s the report…
From Breitbart:
High-level Democrats said Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) may primary Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) or Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), according to a report.

AOC’s possible next step: overplaying her hand for no discernible reason.

Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) held a town hall about veterans’ health care. She probably knows a lot about the subject.
SMH.
Fox News personality Pete Hegseth is a veteran, yet he was denied entry to the event.
Why?
Is AOC’s team scared she might be faced with serious questions as opposed to being lobbed softballs?
Probably.
WATCH:
In the video above, Pete says he was told the event was at “capacity.” That’s odd, if you take this picture into account…
The room doesn’t look that full, does it? Maybe it’s an optical illusion.
