What’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander, right, AOC?
The very online congresswoman was shocked, SHOCKED, when the monster that she created showed up to disrupt HER life.
Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was with her fiancé, Riley Roberts, when she lost her cool and dropped an f-bomb as a couple of protesters badgered her at Alamo Drafthouse Cinema around 5 p.m. Monday.
The protesters complained that Ocasio-Cortez, 34, hasn’t publicly called Israel’s bombing of the Palestinian territory a “genocide” as they accosted her inside the downtown Brooklyn theater, according to the footage.
“I need you to understand that this is not OK,” she told one male protester who held an iPhone near her face.
“It’s not OK that there’s a genocide happening and you’re not actively against it,” the protester shot back.
“You’re lying,” Ocasio-Cortez countered as she walked down an escalator with her beau.
The protesters continued to trail behind the Democrat, who was visibly aggravated as she made her way toward the exit. Between sets of escalators, Ocasio-Cortez got in the face of the protesters to again defend herself before walking away.
The video then cuts to everyone going outside, with Roberts turning around to confront the rabble-rousers.
“Stop,” he said as Ocasio-Cortez walked ahead of him. “OK, stop.”
The lawmaker then went on a tirade when she was asked if she was afraid the video clip would go viral.
“You’re gonna cut it … and you’re gonna clip this so that it’s completely out of context,” Ocasio-Cortez fumed.
The congresswoman has not publicly called Israel’s retaliatory bombardment in Gaza a genocide, but on Monday she suggested otherwise.
“I already said that it was and y’all are just gonna pretend that it wasn’t over and over again. It’s f–ked up, man,” she railed. “And you’re not helping these people, and you’re not helping them, you’re not helping them.”
A few thoughts as I enjoy my popcorn while watching the video.
First… AOC. Sweetie. Bless your heart. What did you think you were telling people to do when you said this?
The whole point of protesting is to make ppl uncomfortable.
Activists take that discomfort w/ the status quo & advocate for concrete policy changes. Popular support often starts small & grows.
To folks who complain protest demands make others uncomfortable… that’s the point.

Kind of burns differently when you’re at the receiving end, doesn’t it? Of course you thought the rules you created would never apply to YOU. Karma is like that, though – it will boomerang right back into your face regarding a different issue when you least expect it.
Second, Riley Roberts, the fiance? He’s kind of useless all the way around in this situation. He is just following AOC like an obedient lap dog. I get not trying to escalate the situation and just trying to get away as quickly as possible, but there is NOTHING about this guy that tells the protestors to not mess with AOC. His “stop, stop” is pathetically ineffective, and if things had escalated on the protestors’ side, does anyone want to lay bets on Roberts actually defending AOC physically from actual harm? There is getting yourself and your loved one safely out of an unpredictable situation, and then there’s whatever this is. Bravely… riding an escalator away from the iPhones. Wheeee. I think I know who is in charge in this relationship, and it ain’t the guy riding AOC’s coattails.
Third, these protestors are just stupid. AOC is a card-carrying Squad member and they have been quite busy being Hamas apologists. These whack jobs with the iPhones are looking to make AOC bend the knee to them by parroting them and saying the word “genocide,” as if AOC needs to prove her fealty to Hamas by repeating what the protestors want her to say. Trust me, the congresswoman has made it crystal clear which side she is supporting, and it’s the side that leaves Hamas in power to repeat October 7th again.
Grateful to have joined Rabbis for Ceasefire tonight.
Ceasefire means release the hostages.
Ceasefire means stop the bombardment.
Ceasefire means defend the innocent.
Ceasefire means transcend cycles of violence.
Ceasefire is not just an option. It is our only way out of this. pic.twitter.com/8onOHvSUij— Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@RepAOC) November 14, 2023
I can’t help contrasting her response with John Fetterman’s response. Granted, he was in his office, but the difference between having the courage of your convictions, and cosplaying Brave Sir Robin and bravely running away, is stark.

The brain-dead progressive zombies have come for AOC, and she really thought they would never turn on her. Oh well. Maybe they should try again. Clearly, she is the power that needs “their” truth spoken at her again. On video. At her office. I’m not a big fan of hunting people down in public to yell at them, though AOC has never had a problem with it when it was the side she opposed. Like I said, karma is a boomerang, kiddo.

Wouldn’t you hate to overhear that pillow talk? It would sound like 2 3rd graders pretending to be grown ups having a discussion about string theory.
If you can’t stand the heat, Alex, then get out of the kitchen!
Don’t forget, when protesters showed up at Fetterman’s house, he went up to the roof and hung an Israeli flag on the side of his building.
AOC is positioning herself for a run at the Dimocrat candidate for President. She’ll be challenging Harris and Newsom in 2028. Right now, that’s all the Dims have to offer, and even then, AOC will have to win two more elections to get there.
Poor Donkey Chompers. Never once did it occur to the little dear that they could turn on her as well.
