Greene called after her and then picked up her pace to catch up to Ocasio-Cortez. Greene began shouting at her, even though Ocasio-Cortez didn’t stop walking, according to the two
Washington Post reporters. Greene asked why she supports antifa, a group of far-left activists who use violence, and Black Lives Matter, an organization that she called a “terrorist” group.
