GOP Congressman Verbally Assaults Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

This kind of harassment by a pig Republican endangers the life of AOC. It emboldens violent and insane Republican supporters. We need to hold these thugs accountable:

A Republican lawmaker challenged Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on issues of crime and policing in an unusual — and decidedly personal — confrontation on the Capitol steps, saying she was "disgusting" and a "f-cking bitch." https://t.co/SNMeZaNO7s

What’s wild to me @RogerWilliamsTX is why would you blatantly lie to a reporter who saw this exchange?

You were yelling at me too, about “throwing urine.”

In an exchange overheard by a reporter, Representative Ted Yoho of Florida told AOC, “You are out of your freaking mind” over remarks she made connecting poverty and crime. Yoho reportedly called her “disgusting” and, as they parted ways, a “fucking bitch” https://t.co/F6ZHNhVyUF

This appeared on FOXnews.com:

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer issued a stern condemnation of Rep. Ted Yoho after he reportedly got into a heated exchange in the Capitol with the left-wing freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that allegedly ended with Yoho uttering the words “f—— b—-.”

“The comments related to me were despicable,” Hoyer, D-Md., said. “Unacceptable. Mr. Yoho owes not only the Congresswoman an apology, but an apology on the floor of the House.”

It was The Hill that first reported the attack. They are no left-wing news source:

Rep. Ted Yoho (R-Fla.) was coming down the steps on the east side of the Capitol on Monday, having just voted, when he approached Ocasio-Cortez, who was ascending into the building to cast a vote of her own.

In a brief but heated exchange, which was overheard by a reporter, Yoho told Ocasio-Cortez she was “disgusting” for recently suggesting that poverty and unemployment are driving a spike in crime in New York City during the coronavirus pandemic.

“You are out of your freaking mind,” Yoho told her.

Ocasio-Cortez shot back, telling Yoho he was being “rude.”

The two then parted ways. Ocasio-Cortez headed into the building, while Yoho, joined by Rep. Roger Williams (R-Texas), began descending toward the House office buildings. A few steps down, Yoho offered a parting thought to no one in particular.

“Fucking bitch,” he said.
