Ocasio-Cortez plays fast and loose with data and get fact-checked by none other than the Washington Post

Facts? Who needs any stinkin' facts?
Socialist upstart Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez gets fact-checked by the Washington Post
by Katelyn Caralle | Washington Examiner
August 10, 2018

The paper's fact-checker said one of her “eyebrow-raising claims” is when she said in an interview with “Pod Save America” on Aug. 7 that, “This upper middle class is probably more moderate but that upper middle class does not exist anymore in America.”
However, the Post noted that while the middle class has shrunk a little bit (???), the upper middle class has grown. In 1979, the upper middle class made up 12.9 percent of the population, but in 2014 it grew to 29.4 percent, according to a 2016 paper published by the Urban Institute.
A second claim she made is that "everyone" in America is working two jobs. “Unemployment is low because everyone has two jobs," Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview on PBS July 13. "Unemployment is low because people are working 60, 70, 80 hours a week and can barely feed their family."
But the Post found that only about five percent of Americans work two jobs, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The percentage of people working two jobs has greatly decreased since the recession in 2008...
...The Post also dismissed her claims that ICE is required to fill 34,000 beds will illegal immigrant detainees every night, that "Medicare for all" would be cheaper than the current U.S. healthcare system
