Rep. Ocasio-Cortez Claps Back At Sen. Fetterman After 'Jerry Springer' Diss
HuffPost
The congresswoman took the senator to task for a comment about her run-in with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene this week.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Friday rebuked Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.) after he commented on her recent run-in with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.).
On Thursday, a House oversight committee hearing descended into chaos when the Republican made a snide remark about Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas).
“I think your fake eyelashes are messing up what you’re reading,” Greene said.
Her gibe led to uproar in the chamber, prompting committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) to call for order. Meanwhile, Ocasio-Cortez demanded that the committee “take down” Greene’s statement.
“That is absolutely unacceptable,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “How dare you attack the physical appearance of another person.”
