Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claps back at conspiracy theory promoted by Hannity that she's an actress.

Who is responsible for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's success? Clusters of right-wing critics and pundits have volunteered a horde of conspiratorial answers to that question ever since the 29-year-old emerged as a leading progressive voice in 2018. Most of them, it seems, are skeptical that the former waitress could muster the political savvy needed for such a meteoric rise in the nation's Capital.

Her comments came in response to two theories that gained prominence last week after being amplified by popular right-wing figures. One such theory received a signal boost from Fox News host Sean Hannity, who directed his roughly 4 million Twitter followers to his website. In the linked article, he embedded what’s described as a “must-see” YouTube video that claims Ocasio-Cortez is not a “real” congresswoman but an actress hired to play the part.

Also last week, Twitter was rife with speculation that the Bronx native is actually a figurehead for the political machinations of her chief of staff, a theory amplified by Fox News articles with similar framing. On Saturday morning, Ocasio-Cortez said the network had reached celebrity tabloid-level proportions in its relentless coverage of her, calling it the “AOC TMZ.”
