- Guest co‑host Charlie Hurt called Ocasio‑Cortez a “faker” and said incidents like the accent moment would limit her political advance.

- Gutfeld followed the joke by criticizing her policy record, saying she champions ideas like the Green New Deal and Medicare for All without defending data or implementation details in debates.
