Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, also known by her initials AOC, nearly attacked Alex Stein, a 35 year old notorious troll who was sexually harassing her on the steps of the Capitol after he crowed that she was his ‘favorite big booty Latina.’
On Wednesday, Alex Stein filmed the Democrat Representative from New York at the Capitol building, catcalling her and saying she ‘wanted to kill babies but she’s still beautiful.’
The congresswoman was approaching the steps with an aide as police stood by during the exchange.
In a clip shared by the lawmaker, Alex Stein calls her a “big booty Latina,” among other remarks.
She tweeted that she was “walking over to deck him” but needed to “catch a vote more than a case.
Read her tweet below
I posted about a deeply disgusting incident that happened today on the Capitol steps, but took it down bc it’s clearly someone seeking extremist fame.
It’s just a bummer to work in an institution that openly allowed this, but talking about it only invites more. Just really sad.

She then included footage of the incident in a follow-up tweet. I was actually walking over to deck him because if no one will protect us then I’ll do it myself but I needed to catch a vote more than a case today, Ocasio-Cortez wrote.

Ocasio-Cortez briefly confronted Stein and made a peace sign to the camera before walking up the Capitol steps.
Stein continued speaking to the camera as she walked away and added: “Hot, hot, hot like a tamale!”
