It must be true cause she said so on social media

What bar?

What time/ date?

Where is the police report?

This one does not pass the smell test.
It absolutely does not pass the smell test. I don't seen anything about this "story" on Fox news or Breitbart. And you better believe if MAGA hat wearers were attacked by liberals, it would be headline news on both of those websites.

The only proof the OP provided is a youtube video from an extremist far-right conservative youtuber.

I'm going to call BS

But this girl should be held accountable for slandering the Austin police if it is a made up story. She didn't name the bar or anyone else, just the police.

I agree. It seems at this point, APD is purposely not commenting, maybe hoping the story will die down naturally before they have to refute it?

What do you mean "die down"? There is NO news story other than a fake youtube. The Austin Police probably aren't aware of this youtube. There is no story to die down.

Did the bartender yell "this is Beto Country!" while he was choking her?

It's on Reddit. I would bet very strongly they know about it.

It SHOULD get traction so this woman can face consequences if it is a lie. The right would condemn her big time for going to the Smollett level. Who is she anyway? Regardless of where it is being shown, she made the video and she made a serious accusation about the police department - failing to do anything about women being beaten and choked?! Serious business... People have to learn they cannot just fabricate any tale to tell publicly without consequence.

Neither here nor there on the validity of this story, but the subreddit you quoted, r/The_Donald, despite its name, is not simply a community of Trump supporters, but a forum for openly white supremacist and neo-Nazi viewpoints. Hardly a font of credibility.

You're confusing me with someone else.

I don't think AOC has wisdom to build on.

I wish she'd never gotten elected.
