Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez responded on Thursday to a call to boycott Girl Scout cookies because she once belonged to the organization.

Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez responded on Thursday to a recent call to boycott Girl Scout cookies because she once used to be a Girl Scout.  "Boycotting cookies that teach little girls leadership skills to own the libs…nice job. I'll take 10," Ocasio-Cortez tweeted. Giving the organization the cold shoulder was suggested by Jane Chastain, a former sportscaster.  She wrote in her column for WND: "Before you decide to…buy the cookies, ask yourself, 'Will the country be better off with more representatives like the young socialist Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez?' If not, it's a good time to start your diet."  "Girl Scouts are celebrating the victory won by their alums in the 2018 midterms on its website, beginning with their star, Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, who attributes much of her success to what she learned as part of this organization…among this year's freshmen, Carol Miller is the only Republican, and…Her training in scouting was well before the feminist takeover that occurred in 1970," Chastain further noted.
