(Chip Somodevilla\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN Newsroom<br \/>UPDATED 2:23 PM PT \u2013 Friday, June 11, 2021<\/h5>\n<p>Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez\u2019s (D-N.Y.) agenda is so far-left she is struggling to even sell it to her own party. McConnell criticized the New York representative during an interview on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>He was responding to a tweet by Ocasio-Cortez where she warned Democrats that time is precious, noting their majority in Congress needs to move now. Her reference was to the death of Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.), whose seat was temporarily filled by another Democrat, but eventually taken over by Scott Brown (R).<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">During the Obama admin, folks thought we\u2019d have a 60 Dem majority for a while. It lasted 4 months.<\/p>\n<p>Dems are burning precious time &amp; impact negotiating w\/GOP who won\u2019t even vote for a Jan 6 commission. McConnell\u2019s plan is to run out the clock.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a hustle. We need to move now.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AOC\/status\/1402699406202245127?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 9, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>McConnell also said it\u2019s been made clear Democrats don\u2019t have enough support to drop the filibuster in order to pass their radical left agenda. The Senate minority leader argues the Democrat agenda is not in the middle and won\u2019t find much appeal for it on either side of the aisle.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/n-c-ban-on-down-syndrome-abortions-heads-to-dem-governor\/\">N.C.
