Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) had an epic meltdown Wednesday after she was heckled by comedian Alex Stein on the Capitol steps. Ocasio-Cortez wrote that she wanted to “deck” Stein. Later she spoke to a reporter and posted a streaming video about the incident where she accused Capitol Police officers of conspiring with the January 6th rioters.
Politico’s Nicholas Wu posted a statement by the Capitol Police issued Thursday stating police stopped Stein and did a criminal background check on him. Stein was not arrested because he did not break the law by heckling Ocasio-Cortez and he had no warrants for his arrest.
“Here’s what the Capitol Police had to say about last night’s incident with @AOC: “…The comments, although inappropriate, are not criminal. In the video, the man never threatened or touched the Congresswoman…” Say they stopped him and ran his info too:”
FYI we had to escalate to House leadership to get them to stop him and run his info. They did not until members intervened and pressed them to.

Ocasio-Cortez replied to Wu, saying police rousted Stein after pressure from her and House (Democrat) leadership, “FYI we had to escalate to House leadership to get them to stop him and run his info. They did not until members intervened and pressed them to.”

The triggering incident:
Here is a video he posted of the incident. 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 pic.twitter.com/RdwCNBDIBb

Ocasio-Cortez retweeted a comment by a Democrat activist that compared her being heckled with a recent death threat by an armed man outside the home of Rep. Pramila Jayapal, “It really says a lot about how media works in this country that this shameful incident and the death threats made against Pramila will together receive a tiny fraction of the coverage garnered by Kavanaugh’s steak dinner.”

Even though she was triggered, Ocasio-Cortez had the presence of mind to record a selfie video with Stein in the background right after the traumatic heckling.

Ocasio-Cortez spoke to a liberal reporter about the incident, accusing Capitol Police of working with the January 6th rioters.
.@aoc tells me she’s never felt safe in the Capitol, citing reports of police and members of Congress working with insurrectionists on January 6th. Here’s the video: pic.twitter.com/9rxABsUI3L

Ocasio-Cortez attacked police again in an Instagram streaming video Wednesday night.
In tonights @AOC instagram rant she labeled this “Sexually threatening aggressive behavior”, mind you if he was such a threat why did you approach him? Also wanted the Capitol Officer to intervene when no law was violated. Laws are for the surfs I guess. https://t.co/4Y4HK1E4Lf pic.twitter.com/MRrxij0YgH

Did @AOC just give credible evidence for the defense of every defendant charged with trespassing on January 6th that they were in fact let in? pic.twitter.com/Pu97vYuuId

Ocasio-Cortez blocked Stein on Twitter Wednesday night, doing online what she the Constitution forbids her from doing in real life but what she so desperately wants the federal government to do to those her mock her.
