It’s no secret that “Libs of TikTok” owner Chaya Raichik has been trying to contact Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY, to discuss a lie the congresswoman told during a committee hearing. After a couple of failed attempts, the two finally crossed paths as Raichik was leaving the Capitol, and it didn’t take long for the sparks to fly.
One week after her first visit to AOC’s office, Raichik decided to try again. She ventured to the Capitol in the hopes of hand-delivering an ethics complaint to the congresswoman along with Heritage Oversight Project’s Mike Howell. While she was only successful in handing the complaint over to a staffer at the office, as luck would have it Ocasio-Cortez happened to be leaving the Capitol at the same time as Raichik. The result was a rather brief but heated confrontation.

At first, the two were posing for what appeared to be a friendly photo before Raichik revealed who she was to the congresswoman. After realizing that she was face-to-face with the owner of the Libs of TikTok Twitter account, Ocasio-Cortez became very nasty.
“You’re actually super transphobic and I never want to share a space with you,” she spat before turning to the cameraman and dismissing them with a pointed and angry “Thank you.”
The video ends with a clip of Raichik sticking a note to the wall outside of AOC’s office telling her “I’m back! And you’ve been served!”
Twitter was quick to react to the interaction:
“super transphobic”

They either run or scream when you confront them, but sure “let’s have a conversation”, yeah a one sided one! LMAO Keep up the great work!

AOC hates you so much, she didn’t even know what you looked like. EPIC. @ChayaRaichik10 — you are a warrior on the right side of history.
