On Thursday, a feud was reignited between vocal left-wing house member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her right-wing counterpart Lauren Boebert. This comes after Ocasio-Cortez held a town hall meeting that was met with a myriad of protesters and overall trouble.
“On the rare occasions that @AOC actually spends time with her constituents, she is reminded that she has sold them out at every turn.
She campaigned as an outsider and has now just morphed into #SandyPelosi!” Boebert tweeted with a video from this disastrous town hall.
AOC responded shortly after with some self-promotion and attacks on Boebart, claiming she is backed by big oil and does not host town halls.
“Hey Boebert, you seem to have us confused.
I: have attended & hosted 100s of community events
(I) hold regular town halls
(I) don’t take a dime in corporate cash
You: are bankrolled by corporate PACs, Big Ag, & Oil
(You)are too scared to hold regular town halls open to all”
This spat returned the next morning as Boebart clapped back tweeting:
“I notice you took a screenshot of my tweet instead of sharing the original one with the video of you getting completely ripped to shreds by your own constituents.
I have governed as I campaigned. You sold out your supporters.
Just own it. You’re the machine now.”
The town hall heckling was a result of AOC’s apparent handling of the war in Ukraine. Protesters were frustrated with her support for the fighting and claimed she was “playing with American lives.”
“Tulsi Gabbard, she’s left the Democratic Party because they are war hawks,” the initial protester said, “You ran as an outsider! Yet, you’ve been voting to start this war in Ukraine. Why are you playing with the lives of American citizens? You’re playing with our lives!”
“You voted to mobilize and send money to Ukrainian Nazis,” another heckler said “You’re a coward!”
As vocal leaders of opposing sides, these two lawmakers have gotten into countless spats. The two even wore opposing dresses to show their political views. When AOC made headlines with her “Tax the rich” dress, Boebert donned a “Let’s Go Brandon” dress in a photo with Former President Donald Trump.
