AOC Eviscerates Lee Zeldin With Internal EPA Emails Exposing His Corruption - Reflect Politics



Watch Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez press EPA Director Lee Zeldin in a tense hearing, presenting internal emails that raise serious questions about his meeting with the president of Bayer. The exchange centers on whether that meeting reflected a potential quid pro quo involving one of the world’s most powerful corporations.

The stakes are especially high given Bayer’s connection to glyphosate, the key ingredient in Roundup. Since acquiring Monsanto, Bayer has faced years of controversy and legal battles over allegations that glyphosate exposure is linked to cancer—making any potential influence over environmental regulators a major public concern.

In this clip, AOC methodically walks through the documents and challenges Zeldin’s responses, raising broader questions about transparency, corporate influence, and how decisions at the EPA impact public health.
