Far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) took the bait by running with a media-driven smear of Elon Musk in her now-common unhinged style.
For those who are unaware, Musk gave a speech at President Trump’s inauguration in which he spoke about giving his heart to the people, then gestured by placing a hand on his chest and motioning out to the crowd.
Naturally, the media decided this was a Nazi salute, because that is all they see anywhere they look. Admittedly, it does look a little strange, but then again Elon is a strange guy. PBS, which needs to be defunded post haste, kicked off the hoax, and other outlets like CNN ran with it.
Billionaire Elon Musk gave what appeared to be a fascist salute Monday while making a speech at the post-inauguration celebration for President Donald Trump at the Capital One Arena.

Now, there’s only a handful of lawmakers in this country dumb enough to fall for it, and AOC, of course, fits in that mold. She dutifully went on a social media rant against Musk.
“You’re gonna do a ‘Sieg heil!’” she said, knowing full well she had no idea what that phrase meant until somebody in the media explained it to her with tiny words and a picture book.
“You’re gonna do a ‘Heil, Hitler’ or their rebrand, a Roman salute, from behind the presidential seal of the United States of America,” the flummoxed TikTok star added. (Obviously, Rome existed a thousand years before Hitler was even born.)
This video made me 100% convinced she’ll never be the Democratic candidate for president, or even a senator from New York. pic.twitter.com/OKIqHRTw9h

AOC Slams Elon Musk Over Fascist Salute
Watching the video, it’s hard to believe somebody lets that person go out in public. It’s even more alarming that somebody decided that person should be a lawmaker.
Not only that, there are some people in the Democrat Party that look at that hot mess and think, ‘She just might be our savior in 2028.’
AOC’s rant against Elon Musk continued on X.
“This is the United States of America. And I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind a presidential seal. In this country, we hate Nazis,” she said. “Kind of like a foundational, defining thing.”
“Two of probably the most foundational, defining things about American history is that we beat the Confederates and we beat the Nazis,” Ocasio-Cortez continued. “And I don’t know what side people may be on today, but I still am not rocking with anyone sympathetic to Nazis. And I will do that until I am six feet in the ground.”
A more criminal indictment of the nation’s history departments you’re unlikely to find anywhere.
But Wait, What’s This?
It’s kind of funny that the American people resoundingly told Democrats in this past election, ‘Hey, we’re kind of tired of you lying about every person who disagrees with you as being a Nazi.’
And the first thing they do after President Trump’s inauguration is try a Hitler hoax. They really, truly will never learn.
Meanwhile, on social media, people had a field day pointing out that if you wanted to, freezing any moment in time, you could make anyone appear as if they’ve given a ‘fascist salute.’ (Hey Sandy, just as an aside, Google “Bellamy Salute” and give us an update on American history!)
AOC certainly looks like she’s doing something fascist-y here, doesn’t she?
