Photos: Little Girl Hilariously Mocks AOC by Reenacting Her Staged Border Photo Shoot

By Josh Manning July 1, 2019 at 10:36am

If you’re not following the @miniAOCofficial Twitter account, now may be the time to start.

Young Ava Martinez and her mom are making a cottage industry out of Ava’s spot-on impersonation of the House of Representatives’ most outspoken quasi-Communist.

In fact, Ava has been so successful, that those in need of a small-statured socialist lookalike can book her by emailing her mom.

That cottage industry is thriving, with Ava having gathered nearly 70,000 Twitter followers with her impression of New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

And why wouldn’t it when the pint-sized impressionist, bespectacled with large red frames to boot, is both so charming and so incisive?

Her latest tweet takes aim at photos of Ocasio-Cortez at the border.

Before @AOC hit the national stage & was just a fairly unknown House candidate frm NYC,she took time awy frm her campaign & came dwn to #Tornillo to protest the #tentcity housing migrant children.I made these previously unpublished fotos a yr ago today. #elpaso #aoc #onassignment pic.twitter.com/SWyyI1XVt9

Ava’s version is spot-on.

Lest you think she is a one-hit-wonder, take a look at some of her other material below.

They say that one of the best ways to combat foolishness is by exposing it with humor. Rush Limbaugh has made a career out of doing just that.

If that’s true, Ava Martinez may be doing more to combat the left in America than almost any other young woman we’ve ever seen.

@Josh_Manning

Josh Manning grew up outside of Memphis, TN and developed a love of history, politics, and government studies thanks to a life-changing history and civics teacher named Mr. McBride.

He holds an MPP from Harvard University and a BA from Lyon College, a small but distinguished liberal arts college where later in his career he served as an interim vice president.

While in school he did everything possible to confront, discomfit, and drive ivy league liberals to their knees.

After a number of years working in academe, he moved to digital journalism and opinion. Since that point, he has held various leadership positions at The Western Journal.

He's married to a gorgeous blonde who played in the 1998 NCAA women's basketball championship game, and he has two teens who hate doing dishes more than poison. He makes life possible for two boxers -- "Hank" Rearden Manning and "Tucker" Carlson Manning -- and a pitbull named Nikki Haley "Gracie" Manning.

He recently co-authored Out of the Shadows: My Life Inside the Wild World of Hunter Biden, the tell-all memoir of Lunden Roberts's tumultuous relationship with Hunter Biden and Stolen Valor: The Military Fraud and Government Failures of Tim Walz.
