Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez appeared to mock her own angry constituents at an event Wednesday night, smiling and rhythmically moving to chants of “AOC has got to go” as she sat on a stage.
In a video posted on social media, the two-term congresswoman from Queens, New York, smiles and moves her shoulders to the chants and an accompanying bongo drum beat before sipping from a bottle of water. It was the lastest case of Ocasio-Cortez facing constituents angry at her support for sending military aid to Ukraine.
“Very classy, thank you sir,” she says in the video, pointing at someone in the crowd who had presumably heckled her. FreedomNews.TV reported the incident occurred in the Queens neighborhood of Astoria and that protesters were angry about rising crime, LGBTQ+ community housing, and vaccine mandates.
