Some of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are not happy with her job performance.
She was heckled during her Queens town hall.
A Queens town hall hosted by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Friday descended into chaos, with some of her constituents calling the congresswoman a “piece of s–it.’
“American citizens before migrants,” a man holding small American flags yelled as he approached the congresswoman, according to footage recorded by Freedom News TV.
“Where are you on the migrant issue? You’re a piece of s–t,” he continued shouting.
The 33-year-old congresswoman laughed off the incident, responding, “OK,” as the man was escorted out. But it appeared to be just the first of many interruptions to come.
Protesters also spoke out against funding for the war in Ukraine.
Protesters noted that the U.S. has provided billions of dollars in military aid to Ukraine. The Biden administration has provided Ukraine with nearly $40 billion in military aid since Russia invaded in late February 2022.
“We are at war with Russia,” one woman said. “We’re on the verge of nuclear war. Are you going to stop this war?”
“Stop funding this war,” one woman is heard saying while being escorted away. “There’s a lot of communities that need help and need that money. I’m from that community.”
