“Squad” member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) is under fire for radically rewriting history by claiming the American Revolution was all about fighting against “billionaires” — similar to the fight she and other fellow socialists are waging on capitalism. “The American Revolution was against the billionaires of their time, and we are declaring independence from such an extreme marriage of wealth and the state,” claimed a clueless Ocasio-Cortez during an appearance Friday at the University of Chicago’s Institute of Politics with longtime Democrat strategist David Axelrod.
