She does not have to endorse MTG to work with MTG. She could have also ran opposition to Biden hijacking another election which was doomed to fail but decided to support him instead.

Moreover as the video says she worked with Ted Cruz before to sanction China. Either Ted Cruz is somehow better than MTG, or China is worse than Israel.

Of course neither are true. AOC has been very open to ally with dubious figures in the past. But for Israel she suddenly finds the standards she previously abandoned?
