Margaret Sullivan: ‘Ravenous hysteria’ over AOC just reached a new level of crazy

Sometime over the past few days, the overreaction to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez moved from somewhat strange to downright bizarre — and, at times, more than a little scary.

On Greg Gutfeld's show on Fox News, commentator Katherine Timpf lit into the 29-year-old congresswoman from New York over her championing of the Green New Deal, quipping that the climate-change initiative might even lead to cannibalism.

At last week's CPAC conference, Sebastian Gorka took his shot, inspired by Ocasio-Cortez's recent suggestions that the environment would benefit from restrictions on factory farming and suggestions that Americans consider eating less red meat.
