Sky News host Rita Panahi discusses Democrat representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s speech at a Muslim holiday event in New York. “AOC donned a hijab to address a crowd of men … who really didn’t seem that interested in what the congresswoman had to say,” Ms Panahi said. “The lack of respect there was palpable.”
