AOC Bristles During Confrontation With Libs Of TikTok’s Chaya Raichik: ‘I Never Want To Share Space With You’

Libs of TikTok creator Chaya Raichik went to the Capitol on Thursday to file an ethics complaint against Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) — and things quickly got testy when the two bumped into each other.

Raichik explained in a series of tweets that she had first gone to the Capitol last week to speak with Ocasio-Cortez directly — but when that failed, she went back to file an official complaint with help from conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation. After delivering a copy of the complaint personally, she happened to run into the congresswoman.

Last week I attempted to talk with AOC about using her position of power to lie about an American citizen. She refused to meet so I was forced to go to the next step and file an ethics complaint. Stop cowering @AOC! https://t.co/3lvwqL7JqU

When Raichik happened upon her in the hallway, she explained that she had “just delivered an ethics complaint to your office because you lied about me in a committee hearing.”

“Uh-huh. Oh hi! Yeah no, I actually didn’t,” AOC objected.

“I never inspired a bomb threat,” Raichik insisted.

“You’re actually super transphobic and I never want to share a space with you!” Ocasio-Cortez continued, turning on her heel and walking away. “Thank you!”

Raichik said that she had initially tried to meet with AOC last week to confront her in person, alleging that the New York congresswoman had lied about her during a congressional hearing — when she claimed that Raichik’s vocal opposition to gender transition procedures for children had resulted in harassment and threats against medical professionals.

During a February hearing, Ocasio-Cortez claimed that Raichik had posted a lie that her followers circulated, which Ocasio-Cortez said had then inspired “real life harassment and ultimately a bomb threat” to Boston Children’s Hospital.

When Raichik arrived at Ocasio-Cortez’s office to confront her, she was told by a staffer that the congresswoman was not in. She left a post-it note on the door telling her not to “lie about American citizens.”

“I absolutely had no expectations for her to own up to it. I went to her office, and I was ready to sit down with her and get to the bottom of this and explain it. And I don’t know if she was in the office or not, but I know she cowered away,” she told Fox News host Tucker Carlson later. “I don’t think she would ever face me or ever have a discussion about it. But I as an American citizen — I don’t appreciate being defamed in front of millions of people. So I wanted to confront her, and she cowered.”

New Disney Board To Take Legal Action Against Disney After Old Board Made Quiet Move To Transfer Power To Corporation

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ new handpicked five-person board that oversees the governance of Walt Disney World discovered this week in one of its first meetings that the old board quietly signed an agreement that transferred its power to Disney.

The old board signed the agreement to transfer its power to the company on February 8 and the agreement was recorded with the Orange County Comptroller on February 9 — the same day that the Florida House passed legislation that renamed the Reedy Creek Improvement District to the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District and removed Disney’s self-appointed board and replaced it with a board appointed by the governor.

The agreements between Disney and the old Reedy Creek board were recorded with the Orange County Comptroller on Feb 9 – the day before the Florida legislature passed the bill altering the district and 18 days before @GovRonDeSantis signed it.

News 6 WKMG reported that the discovery was made by attorneys that were hired by the new board. The special counsel also discovered that the old board used a common law property rule known as the “rule against perpetuities” to extend how long Disney has control of the powers.

The rule “states that no interest in land is good unless it must vest, if at all, not later than twenty-one years after some life in being at the creation of the interest,” according to Cornell Law School.

Disney then invoked a “Royal lives clause” which tried to extend the length of the contract for as long as possible by tying it to the lineage of the Royal family.

The document signed by the old board and Disney said, “[T]his Declaration shall continue in effect until twenty one (21) years after the death of the last survivor of the descendants of King Charles III, King of England living as of the date of this Declaration.”

“I cannot tell you the level of my disappointment in Disney. I thought so much better of them,” said board member Ron Peri. “This essentially makes Disney the government. This board loses, for practical purposes, the majority of its ability to do anything beyond maintain the roads and maintain basic infrastructure.”

“I mean, I don’t know what else to say,” Peri added. “I think these documents are void ab initio, I think they were an extremely aggressive overreach, and I’m very disappointed that they’re here.”

The new board has retained legal counsel as they prepare to fight Disney in court over the matter.

“On the day that the legislation was passed by the Florida House, the former board and Disney entered into a development agreement and deed restrictions that essentially stripped most of the governing authority of the district and also made certain promises and concessions to Disney for many, many years out into the future,” said board member Brian Aungst, Jr. “They have tried to take that away from this board, the ability to provide that oversight, and we’re not gonna let that stand.”

Disney claimed in a statement that their actions were in full compliance with Florida law.

“The Executive Office of the Governor is aware of Disney’s last-ditch efforts to execute contracts just before ratifying the new law that transfers rights and authorities from the former Reedy Creek Improvement District to Disney,” DeSantis’ office said in a statement. “An initial review suggests these agreements may have significant legal infirmities that would render the contracts void as a matter of law. We are pleased the new Governor-appointed board retained multiple financial and legal firms to conduct audits and investigate Disney’s past behavior.”

Christina Pushaw, rapid response director on DeSantis’ political team, also fired back at Disney, tweeting: “Today, @Disney got a rude awakening in the Central Florida Tourism Oversight meeting… Governor DeSantis’ new board would not, and will not, allow Disney to give THEMSELVES unprecedented power over land (some of which isn’t even theirs!) for 30+ years.”

Today, @Disney got a rude awakening in the Central Florida Tourism Oversight meeting…

Governor DeSantis' new board would not, and will not, allow Disney to give THEMSELVES unprecedented power over land (some of which isn’t even theirs!) for 30+ years.

Thank you @RonDeSantisFL
