‘Be better’: Chip Roy scolds BlazeTV, Alex Stein for harassing Haley campaign staffers

February 19, 2024 | | Print Article

U.S. Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) scolded his friends at BlazeTV over the actions of one of its hosts, abrasive comedian Alex Stein.

Stein, who hosts “Prime Time with Alex Stein” on BlazeTV, went “pimp on a blimp” on a couple of female Nikki Haley campaign staffers.

If you aren’t familiar with Stein’s work, he “became an overnight sensation with his outrageous and over-the-top trolling of the Left — like when he crashed a woke city council meeting while wearing a woman’s one-piece bathing suit to demand that he be allowed to compete against female swimmers,” according to BlazeTV.

As BizPac Review reported, in 2022, Stein called ‘Squad’ member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortex (D-N.Y.) his “favorite big booty Latina” and  “hot, hot, hot, like a tamale.”

Heckling her from the steps of the Capitol, Stein said, “I love you AOC, you’re my favorite.”

“She wants to kill babies, but she’s still beautiful,” he said into the camera. “You look very beautiful in that dress. You look very sexy. Look at that booty on AOC.”

To one female Haley staffer, Stein proclaimed that “all the hoes know” who he is.

As the woman tried her best to get away from him, he called a male staffer who wouldn’t let him into Nikki Haley’s event “a little p*ssy boy.” He then focused his unwanted attention on another female staffer.

“Do you have an OnlyFans?” he asked, referring to an online subscription service that is used primarily by sex workers.

“Nikki sucks!” he exclaimed, tearing up one of her campaign stickers in front of the woman.

“I would like for you to please leave me alone,” she finally told him.

“Oh my gosh!” he cried. “You’re all such wimps here!”

It was all a bit too much for Roy, who is a frequent guest on Blaze Media CEO Glenn Beck’s radio show and a good friend of the Blaze’s popular “Steve Deace Show.”

“I debate elevating this behavior, but it must be called out,” the lawmaker wrote on X. “I have no problem with out-of-the-box efforts to challenge the status quo. But attacking a young, particularly female, campaign staffer or volunteer like this deserves blunt repudiation.”

“Be better, [BlazeTV],” he urged the conservative Christian network.

On X, many praised Roy for speaking out.

“Glad you have the guts to call out the media stars on the right, because they cost us elections and make the party toxic to normal people,” one user told the Texan. “It seems you might be the only one.”

“Glenn, Alex Stein’s behavior on video at the Haley event is a really poor reflection on the Blaze,” one user wrote to Beck. “Embarrassing as a longtime subscriber.”

“Totally agree,” replied another user. “I’ve never liked Stein, always thought he was TheBlaze’s worst hire. This just reinforces my opinion.”
