Fox News host Laura Ingraham tweeted her approval after two Louisiana police officers were fired for suggesting Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) should be shot. 

“Good riddance. Disgusting,” Ingraham tweeted.

Gretna Police Chief Arthur Lawson announced Monday that Officer Charlie Rispoli would be fired for posting the comment on the social media platform and Officer Angelo Varisco would be fired for “liking” it. {mosads}

In the post, Rispoli said Ocasio-Cortez was a “vile idiot” who “needs a round.” 

“And I don’t mean the kind she used to serve,” Rispoli wrote, apparently referencing the lawmaker’s past work as a bartender. 

“This incident, we feel, has been an embarrassment to our department,” Lawson said of the since-deleted post.
