WASHINGTON (TND) — Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., early Friday morning took to Instagram to dispel what she described as media “craziness” surrounding reports President Joe Biden could soon drop out of the presidential election.

Reports by several major outlets say prominent Democratic leaders in recent weeks have told Biden to consider dropping out in favor of nominating a stronger candidate to rival former president Donald Trump. Some now speculate Biden’s announcement could come as early as this weekend.

AOC admitted during a live video on Instagram she does not know what will happen in the coming days. However, she said the notion that Democrats aren’t behind Biden largely originates from a class of powerful individuals outside of Congress who aren’t acting in the interest of the voting masses.

If people wanted to have this conversation six months ago, a year ago, it’s a very different landscape of logistics,” she said. “I think people need to understand the reality and the gravity of what these people are proposing.”

Republicans, she added, are already preparing legal challenges in the event a new candidate tries to take Biden’s place atop the Democratic ticket. This, she said, could lead to the outcome of the election being decided by the Supreme Court.

The representative continued, calling out her Democratic colleagues for failing to take ownership of their comments made to the press during such a tumultuous time for the party, referring to it as “craziness” in the media.

“Over the last several weeks, there’s been lots of Democrats who have been giving little anonymous quotes to the press, to some journalist to print — and I’m not here to knock the press on it, I’m here to knock my colleagues on it,” she said.

That’s bulls—,” she added. “If you have an opinion, say it with your chest and say it in public. The idea that you are an elected official and you are supposed to be responsible for a community and you’re just going to, like, text some journalist on the low and say ‘this is what I think, but don’t put my name next to it’ — what are you here to do?”

Continuing, she noted choosing another nominee within the Democratic Party could prove to be a lengthy process, impacting some state deadlines for ballot entries. Such a scenario, she said, could lead to “enormous peril.”

Her remarks come as fellow “Squad” member Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., on Thursday also lamented a lack of accountability among Democratic leaders.

“I can’t tell you all how shameful it feels to hear all these leaks about what Democratic leaders are staying [sic] and not to have a single one of them out here confirming or denying it,” Rep. Omar wrote on X. “It’s a lack of leadership and it’s making all Democrats look bad.”
