Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) lost her temper outside Congress and claims she almost decked a heckler.
The man filmed himself heckling the celebrity congresswoman about abortion outside the Capitol Building on Wednesday.
The heckler, Alex Stein, kept calling AOC his “favorite big booty Latina.”
He recorded the incident and posted it on his social media.
AOC shared the video on her Twitter account and claimed she was about to “deck” Stein over the incident.
The Democrat lawmaker complained that the institution “openly allowed this.”
“I was actually walking over to deck him because if no one will protect us then I’ll do it myself but I needed to catch a vote more than a case today,” AOC captioned the video of the incident.
“It’s just a bummer to work in an institution that openly allowed this, but talking about it only invites more. Just really sad.
“I posted about a deeply disgusting incident that happened today on the Capitol steps but took it down bc it’s clearly someone seeking extremist fame.

According to The Washington Examiner.
“Stein can be heard directing several crude remarks at Ocasio-Cortez.
“When Stein shouts, “Look at that booty on AOC,” the congresswoman reacts by walking toward him before an aide steps in between the two.
“Ocasio-Cortez then holds two fingers up in the form of a peace sign before walking back up the Capitol steps as Stein shouts, “Whooo. I love it AOC. Hot hot hot like a tamale.”
“Stein reportedly attempted to engage several lawmakers outside the Capitol on Wednesday.”
