Ted Cruz Asked Ocasio-Cortez, ‘What’s a Y Chromosome?’ She Went Ballistic

Daily Caller: Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz sparred with New York Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez over several unanswered science questions.

The spat began Thursday when Ocasio-Cortez criticized President Donald Trump for putting Vice President Mike Pence in charge of the task force responding to Coronavirus.

Cruz responded by asking Ocasio-Cortez, “As you are speaking as the oracle of science, tell us, what exactly is a Y chromosome?”

Ocasio-Cortez fired back, insulting Cruz and touting her own scientific prowess and resume.

@AOC

Sincerely,
an Intel global finalist,
a fmr multi-year intern for Sen. Kennedy,
a cum laude dual major in Economics & International Relations,
a fmr Educational Director for national organization,
Who to you is “just a bartender,”

Cruz challenged Ocasio-Cortez directly then, pointing out the fact that he had asked her three scientific questions that she had ignored in favor of sharing her “resume & ad hominem attacks.”

Cruz then repeated all three of the questions, beginning with the one about the Y chromosome.

“Science Q2 was ‘at what age of gestation does science tell us that an unborn child feels physical pain?’” Cruz’s second question was meant to challenge the Democratic Party’s position allowing abortion through all nine months of pregnancy for any reason. keep reading

  1. No wonder the Democrat Party is in such poor shape. All they have as representatives are individuals that show severe signs of Alzheimer’s, extremely low IQ people, blatantly corrupt liars, socialists / communists and a very large percentage of insane people.

  2. “I hold awards from MIT Lincoln Lab &others for accomplishments in microbiology.”

    MIT Lincoln Lab has absolutely nothing to do with microbiology! Once again, Always Obviously Confused doesn’t know what she’s talking about!

    A quick search reveals, “MIT’s Lincoln Laboratory, in Lexington, Massachusetts, is a federally funded research and development center (FFRDC) that develops advanced technology to address national security needs. Its core competencies are in sensors, information extraction (signal processing and embedded computing), communications, and decision support—all supported by a broad research base in advanced electronics.” Source: https://web.mit.edu/facts/l

  3. Sounds to me that she didn’t go ballistic, but went defensive.

    Ballistic sounds like an attack mode. She didn’t do that, but tried to defend herself and really failed to do that. Cruz’s questions never got answered.

    Her response about the Y chromosome is that she claimed Cruz knew nothing about evolution. I don’t think the Y chromosome or anything else is the result of evolution.

    That’s what I would have said.

  4. I don’t believe for a second that she has any awards from MIT. In fact, I don’t believe she even knows where MIT is. But now that she has made it a public record, let us investigate and report on the record.

  5. I came in last in the 1979, International Science and Engineering Fair held in San Antonio. They let me go to the banquet, but my punishment was to sit at the same table with the girl who won.

  6. Let’s see. She has a Economic degree from Boston College and she doesn’t understand economics. Since she’s a hispanic woman she could have taped boxtops from cereal boxes to a sheet of foolscap and gotten the same degree.
