Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Wednesday refused to accept an apology from Rep. Ted Yoho (R-Fla.) delivered just hours earlier, framing it as an insincere gesture following a tense exchange between the pair on the steps of the Capitol two days earlier.
"I will not teach my nieces and young people watching that this an apology, and what they should learn to accept," Ocasio-Cortez tweeted.
"Yoho is refusing responsibility."

Yoho took to the House floor Wednesday morning and apologized for his tone following the confrontation with the firebrand progressive on Monday over the issues of crime and policing.

(4,251 posts)"Ocasio-Cortez won't accept Yoho apology" - All I hear was a self-righteous rant doubling down on his bullshit: "That doesn't mean WE should be disrespectful" "Words attributed to me" - what a load of crap.

Maybe he was refering to her aloof pet canine.
