“We rallied 1,200 people in the Bronx to take on dark money, get fired up, and send busloads of volunteers to canvass and phone bank. It’s called organizing. And it’s fun as hell.”

During Saturday’s rally, the 34-year-old Ocasio-Cortez darted onto the stage, jumped up and down, then strutted to the tune of the Cardi B song “Enough” in an attempt to fire up her audience.

“Hoes better lower they tone when they spittin’. B—es is washed, soap on the dishes. I apply pressure like boa constrictors,” were among the lyrics that could be heard in the background.
