Tucker Carlson responded to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, DN.Y., during her opening monologue on Monday after she told viewers during a recent virtual town hall that a non-police community would look “like a suburb,” reaffirming their support for “the police movement is out of order.
“Here’s something you probably didn’t know,” said Carlson. “Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the voice of the street, actually grew up in an idyllic town 45 miles north of New York City. Her name is Yorktown Heights. You never know when you hear her recent racial harassment, but the population of Alexandria Ocasio Cortez’s house is more than 90 percent white.

“It is not Queens,” Carlson continued. “It’s a nice place. Yorktown Heights is so prosperous and peaceful, in fact, it doesn’t need its own police department. Instead, it depends on the 59-man force that protects the largest city. [Yorktown] around. This is the hood that gave birth to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, one of the most privileged revolutionaries in the country.
“Back then, he called himself Sandy Cortez. He imagined that every place could be like Yorktown Heights if we got rid of the police. Apparently, he still believes that.”
Ocasio-Cortez made the comment after asked by a viewer about the worrying increase in violent crime across New York City.

“We know very well how it will end. More poor children will die. It will not affect [New York City Mayor] Bill de Blasio, however. Your family will remain protected by the armed security paid by taxpayers. So will Sandy Cortez. So will Barack Obama. The rest of the politicians who ask to remove our protection will do the same. They will never suffer the consequences. So they are in favor. “
