Florida Congressmember Ted Yoho was forced to resign from his position on the board of a Christian organization amid the fallout from his verbal attack on Congressmember Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The organization Bread for the World said Yoho’s recent actions are “not reflective of [our] ethical standards.” Yoho called Ocasio-Cortez a “f—ing bitch” after he accosted her on the steps of the Capitol last week. AOC responded to his attack from the House floor, calling out the “’culture of violence against women,” in a video that quickly went viral.
