About this Episode

On 60 Minutes, Dem Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told Anderson Cooper that more important than getting the facts right on policy, is that the policy is "morally correct."

Tony Katz explains how Cortez has opened herself up to an entirely new line of questioning. "Rep. Cortez has done a great job of avoiding criticism and making those who attack her look bad." says Tony. "But now, she's let all that go. She doesn't care about facts, which is exactly the argument progressives make about President Trump. And she has asked people to question whether, morally, her Socialist policies have value; people get to question her morality. I don't think she realizes what she's done here."
