The previously suspended fake account named “Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Press Release (parody)” which used the same picture from her own account is clearly marked as a joke but the left-wing congresswoman wasn’t laughing as it churned out posts over the holiday weekend including such jewels as “Cow farts are far more dangerous than fentanyl,” “Ron DeSantis is not my type,” and “Big shout-out to my BFF Kevin McCarthy for caving on the debt ceiling.”

One of the account’s tweets was noticed by Twitter owner Elon Musk with whom she has frequently clashed.

“This might be the wine talking, but I’ve got a crush on @elonmusk,” the account tweeted, drawing a fire emoji response from the billionaire SpaceX/Tesla CEO.

By Tuesday, AOC may have had enough and took to Twitter to put her legions of followers on notice that there was a faux account and that they should not fall for it, assuring them that she and her team are working on a response.

“FYI there’s a fake account on here impersonating me and going viral. The Twitter CEO has engaged it, boosting visibility,” she tweeted. “It is releasing false policy statements and gaining spread.”

“I am assessing with my team how to move forward. In the meantime, be careful of what you see,” added the cartoonish congresswoman.

This only served to make even more mocking tweets such as this one:
"Occasional Cortex @AOC is upset that parody and reality are indistiguishable in her lobotomized world.
