All the links show this, including one that lists every deleted AOC tweet ever. https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-aoc-tweet/fact-check-alexandria-ocasio-cortez-did-not-tweet-that-governors-should-keep-businesses-closed-to-prevent-trumps-re-election-idUSKBN23V32A https://apnews.com/article/fact-checking-9035601885 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/07/14/fact-check-aoc-didnt-tweet-keeping-economy-shut-down/5352149002/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/aoc-businesses-closed-tweet/ https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2020/jun/23/viral-image/no-aoc-didnt-tweet-about-closing-businesses-until-/ https://projects.propublica.org/politwoops/user/AOC
