Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the freshman representative from New York, was recently hospitalized after suffering a medical emergency related to excessive talking. Doctors said Ocasio-Cortez, who is renowned for her prolific amounts of public speaking, had briefly forgotten how to speak entirely.

"We believe Ocasio-Cortez overworked and taxed her tongue so severely that it simply couldn't take it anymore," said Dr. Lingualton, a leading researcher in speech disorders. "We weren't sure if she was going to recover from this, but luckily she was able to regain her faculties after a few quiet hours of rest."

The incident has reminded many Americans that Ocasio-Cortez's gift of gab should be used in moderation to avoid possible consequences like this one. However, it appears that Ocasio-Cortez is all too eager to share her views and hushing her is not an option.
