As Ocasio-Cortez first began speaking, she pulled up a PowerPoint presentation for the night’s event. She was then interrupted before even getting through her first slide discussing the Trump administration’s budget cuts, including alleged cuts to local healthcare systems. \u00a0<\/p>\n

“I am a healthcare worker<\/a> and I want to know what you’re doing about the genocide in Gaza!” the protester started shouting at the congresswoman.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ocasio-Cortez attempted to appease the disruptor, but nothing she could say calmed the person down. Staff at the event allowed the disruptor to continue yelling until they approached her and eventually led her out voluntarily.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Shame on you, you’re a liar. You’re a liar!” the woman screamed as others began to boo at her.<\/p>\n

“Shame on you, I used to support you,” the woman shouted as she exited. “You’re a war criminal! War criminal! War Criminal!”<\/p>\n

“I more than welcome people who disagree, or are super pissed off at me for any issue to come, but we have some ground rules here,” she told the town hall’s attendees. “Please wait for the Q&A, because we don’t want to deprive all of our neighbors of the ability to have information and hearing them respond to it\u2026 We need to be able to have this conversation.”<\/p>\n
