Extreme left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her far-right congressional colleague Rep. Lauren Boebert are squabbling over who hosts a better town hall, days after one of AOC’s was crashed by liberal protesters. 

“On the rare occasions that [Ocasio-Cortez] actually spends time with her constituents, she is reminded that she has sold them out at every turn,” Boebert tweeted on Thursday, sharing an accompanying video of hecklers interrupting an AOC town hall event this week, who accused her of “voting to start a nuclear war” with Russia. 

The New York socialist lawmaker wasn’t having it and responded to Boebert’s criticism by calling the Republican from out west afraid to hold “town halls open to all.”

“Hey Boebert, you seem to have us confused,” AOC said on Twitter. “I have attended & hosted 100s of community events, hold regular town halls, don’t take a dime in corporate cash. You: are bankrolled by corporate PACs, Big Ag, & Oil, are too scared to hold regular town halls open to all.”
