All hell broke loose at a town hall hosted by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Friday, when the far-left “Squad” member was heckled by a protester for failing to stop the “genocide in Gaza” — who was immediately met with a torrent of boos and hisses.
The speculated 2028 presidential candidate was holding a constituent event in Jackson Heights, Queens, when it devolved into chaos after an anti-Israel demonstrator harangued the lawmaker from New York’s 14th Congressional District over the war in Israel.
“I am a health care worker, and I want to know what you’re doing about the genocide in Gaza,” a female disrupter shouted as AOC spoke on stage, video showed.

“I’m a nurse! Shame on you!” the agitator yelled at AOC from her seat. “Shame on you, you’re a liar. You’re a liar!”
Attendees continued to drown out the disruptive nurse with one loudly shouting, “Shame! Shame! Shame!” while others yelled indecipherable counterarguments to the pro-Palestinian attendee as she was corralled by security and staffers.
“You’re a war criminal! War criminal! War criminal!” she yelled on the way out of the auditorium, adding, “Shame on you, I used to support you!”
After a semblance of order was restored, Ocasio-Cortez responded to the provocative outburst.
“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 said.
