Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Has Temper Tantrum on House Floor, Throws Notebook
While speaking on the House floor on Thursday, socialist Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had a temper tantrum, slamming her notebook.
The meltdown came as House Republicans seek to bar Democrat congresswoman Ilhan Omar from the Foreign Affairs committee for her anti-Semitic past.
“Don’t tell me that this is about a condemnation of anti-Semitic remarks,” she screamed as she defended her Omar for being anti-Semitic.
“This is about targeting women of color in the United States of America,” Ocasio-Cortez claimed during her unhinged rant.
Towards the end of the rant, the congresswoman slammed her notepad down on the podium.

Things aren’t looking to good for Omar considering she was called an anti-Semite by the Democrat House leader Hakeen Jeffries.
“A refugee elected to the United States Congress, duly sent back to the House by her constituents in Minnesota. Now, Representative Omar certainly has made mistakes. She has used anti semitic tropes that were clearly and unequivocally condemned by House Democrats when it took place four years ago⦔ he said on Thursday.
