\n Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Thursday slammed Republican Rep. Ted Yoho of Florida from the House floor for denying he called her a \u201cf\u2014ing bitch\u201d on the steps of the Capitol.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn front of reporters, Representative Yoho called me, and I quote, a f\u2014ing bitch,\u201d the New York Democrat recounted for the Congressional Record.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old former bartender said Republicans are broadly complicit for not condemning Yoho and said it revealed a \u201ccultural\u201d problem of accepting verbal abuse of women.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have tossed men out of bars that have used language like Mr. Yoho. And I have encountered this type of harassment riding the subway in New York City. This is not new. And that is the problem,\u201d said the congresswoman, better know by her initials, AOC.<\/p>\n

Yoho on Monday confronted Ocasio-Cortez outside the Capitol, telling the New York Democratic social<\/a>ist that she was \u201cdisgusting\u201d for her recent remarks\u00a0tying poverty and unemployment to the recent spike in crime in New York City, according to The Hill.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, Yoho denied using \u201coffensive name-calling words\u201d but said he apologized for \u201cthe abrupt manner of the conversation I had.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ocasio-Cortez, who represents parts of the Bronx and Queens, said she was incensed by the denial.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was just gonna pack it up and go home. It\u2019s just another day \u2026 [But] yesterday, Representative Yoho decided to come to the floor of the House of Representatives and make excuses for his behavior. And that I could not let go. I could not allow victims of verbal abuse, and worse, to see that, to see that excuse. And to see our Congress accept it as legitimate,\u201d AOC said.<\/p>\n

The progressive darling said she hasn\u2019t received any supportive outreach from House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) or from the Republican who was with Yoho at the time of the disputed verbal attack.<\/p>\n

\u201cMr. Yoho was not alone. He was walking shoulder to shoulder with Representative Roger Williams [of Texas],\u201d AOC said.<\/p>\n

Ocasio-Cortez made her condemnation personal, adding: \u201cI am two years younger than Mr. Yoho\u2019s youngest daughter. I am someone\u2019s daughter, too. My father, thankfully, is not alive to see how Mr. Yoho treated his daughter.\u201d<\/p>\n

AOC said she also was disrespected by President Trump when he last year tweeted that progressive congresswomen should \u201cgo back\u201d to where they\u2019re from.<\/p>\n

Fellow House Democrats \u2014 including co-members of the leftist \u201cSquad\u201d \u2014 spoke in support of AOC.<\/p>\n

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) linked Trump to Yoho\u2019s conduct.<\/p>\n

\u201cNearly every woman in the world has experienced verbal abuse, not just once, but since they were little girls. We experienced it on playground. We experienced it in workplaces, we experienced it on our social media feeds. We see it coming regularly from the president of the United States. And now we see it coming from his partisan lackeys,\u201d Omar said.<\/p>\n

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) said: \u201cI would invite any of my colleagues across the aisle to answer the calls into my office for just one day to hear the vile sexist remarks made about me and other women serving in this chamber. When my colleague from Florida made the remark in question, he echoed and perpetuated those sexist violent calls.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) linked Yoho\u2019s words to Trump\u2019s 2017 attack on NFL players who kneel during the National Anthem as sons of bitches.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is not the first time we heard this B word used by people in positions of authority. A higher office in this country has corrupted the discourse,\u201d Green said. \u201cThis scatology with the B word is something that demeans every woman when it is used.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
