"American citizens before migrants."
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) was heckled at a town hall meeting in Queens, New York Friday, with one protester calling her a "piece of sh*t." Protestors took issue with her stances on the border crisis, sending billions to Ukraine, Drag Queen story hour, and the debt ceiling.
The Congresswoman was speaking to her constituents in the Corona Neighborhood as the scene descended into chaos. At some points, members of the audience were chanting "America First," and one man in a Cuba shirt yelled, "American citizens before migrants."
The video, posted by FreedomNews TV, shows the man asking, "Where are you on the migrant issue?" and calling her a "piece of sh*t" while being escorted away.
One man stood up to defend the congresswoman, proclaiming, "We all, for the most part, came through Ellis Island," before others interrupted with, "Legally!"
When speaking on the debt ceiling, Ocasio-Cortez said that she doesn't believe the US should have a debt limit. A man pointed out that money was spent in the form of "$100 billion to Ukraine, which you voted for." AOC voted in favor of sending $40 Billion to Ukraine last year.
On the topic of Ukraine, one woman shouted, "Stop Funding this war, there's a lot of communities that need help and need that money. I'm from that community." She was subsequently removed from the building.
"We are at war with Russia," another woman said. "We're on the verge of nuclear war. Are you going to stop this war?"
One woman held up a sign that read "AOC: An obvious Criminal." while others had signs that read "Stop funding Ukraine," "America first," and "AOC: Stop pushing drag queen story hour,' among others reported by the New York Post.
Last year, numerous town halls in which Ocasio-Cortez appeared delved into chaos. In October, she danced on stage as protestors shouted, "AOC has got to go." At an event in the Bronx that same month, a man stated, "You ran as an outsider yet you voted to start this war in Ukraine. You're voting to start a nuclear war with Russia and China."
