AOC jabs Jake Paul after boxer makes Bad Bunny slight

"A 'fake American citizen?' Didn't you MOVE to Puerto Rico to avoid paying your taxes while kids across America go hungry?" the congresswoman wrote on X.

"Meanwhile Benito actually funds low income kids' access to arts and sports programs, while you defund them. Of course you're mad. He makes you look small."

"To clarify: I wasn't calling anyone a 'fake citizen' because they're from Puerto Rico. I live in Puerto Rico, and I love Puerto Rico. I have used my platform to support Puerto Rico time and time again and will always do so," Paul wrote on X. "But if you're publicly criticizing ICE who are doing their job and openly hating on America, I'm going to speak on it. Period. That's the same reason I called out Hunter Hess.

"If you benefit from a country and the platform it gives you, but publicly disrespect it at the same time, that's what I mean by being a fake citizen. And I agree love is more powerful than hate. Love America."

Bad Bunny prominently spoke out against ICE when he received his Grammy Award for Album of the Year earlier this month.

"ICE out," he said. "We're not savage, we're not animals, we're not aliens - we are humans, and we are Americans."
